"Galaxy S20 Series" First Impression: Samsung's whole body ... I understand, but at the cheapest $ 1000

There is also a good ride.

Last year's SAMSUNG GALAXY S 10 (S10) was a design victory that combines innovative functions such as fingerprint leaders in the display, reverse wireless charging, small punch hall camera on the front, and beautiful body without a bezel.However, probably because of the S10 rivals and some functions that are not found in S10, this Galaxy S 20 (S20) has always included the strongest specifications.

There are three versions of the S20, but the maximum refresh rate of the display is 120Hz for all, and of course 5G, and Samsung, the camera has been upgraded since Galaxy S 7.But unfortunately, it is reflected in the price, and there is no cheap version like last year.And there are small but serious differences in the three versions, so be sure to grasp them.

Galaxy S 20 is the most affordable ... from $ 1000 (about 110,000 yen)

The standard S20 starts at $ 1000 (about 110,000 yen), which is the best price of 3 versions.6.2インチのAMOLEDディスプレイのリフレッシュレートは最大120Hzで、他のバージョンのS20同様、プロセッサはQualcomのSnapdragon 865、RAMは12GB、ストレージはベースが128GB、microSDカードスロット搭載です。ただし大事なのは、スタンダードS20は5G対応といってもサブ6Ghz帯の5Gのみで、これは米国でいうと今のところT-Mobileしか使っていない帯域です（AT&TとVerizonも6GHz帯を追加する計画ですが、まだ使えません）。つまりVerizonなどのキャリアでは、そもそもスタンダードS20の取り扱い自体しない（少なくともローンチ時点では）ということです。

The S20 has a battery of 4,000mAh, and it can be charged for wireless / reverse like S10, and contains ultrasonic fingerprint sensors and stereo speakers in the display.Unfortunately, the S10 seems to have become a smartphone equipped with the last headphone jack in the Samsung flagship.In other words, S20 needs to use a wireless headphone or carry a headphone adapter.

After that, as a small bonus for those who did not like Samsung's rounded screen, the plain S20 screen is not a round like Galaxy S 10+, but almost flat to Galaxy S 10E.

As for the camera, S20 and Galaxy S 20+ (hereinafter S20+) have 10 million pixels on the front and triple cameras on the back, 12 million pixels, 12 million pixels ultra -wide -angle, and 64 million pixels.It is a team.The higher resolution of the telephoto camera is that by combining this sensor with image stacking and sensor cropping, S20 and S20+can zoom 3 times as much as lossless, and that digital zoom can be reached 30 times.

But what is more important is that the S20 camera sensor is larger than before, and in the main wide -angle camera, each pixel is 1 in S10..4 for microns 1.It has grown to 8 microns.The bigger pixels can collect more light of the S20, the photos that can be taken become brighter and sharper, and can be expected to be exerted in a dark environment, especially in dark environments.

In addition, Samsung has created a single takes photo to make the most of this back camera.This is a function that mobilizes the back camera of the S20, and if you shoot a video for up to 15 seconds, it will automatically take various still images and videos.

Although it is not a complete multi -camera state like using the Filmic DoubleTake app on the iPhone 11, single takes photos can be very easy to use, and it seems to be fun to share social media.In the S20, 8K videos can be taken at 24fps, and 8K still images can be saved at the same time.

Galaxy S 20+ of the middle child

The $ 1200 (about 132,000 yen) S20+is generally the same specifications as S20, but the AMOLED display is 6..7インチとなり、5Gはサブ6GHz帯とミリ波帯の両方をサポートしています。なので米国でいうと、S20+はAT&TとVerizonの現行5Gネットワークでも使えます。ちなみにSprintの5Gは2.In the 5GHz band, all S20 cannot be used because it does not support this bandwidth.

The S20 + can be upgraded to 512GB as an option, with a battery of 4,500mAh and the built -in storage optional, so you can recognize the surrounding things more accurately with Samsung's Ar Doodless or measurement apps.

Does S20 Ultra aim for space?

Finally, the $ 1400 (about 154,000 yen) Galaxy S 20 Ultra (hereinafter S20 ULTRA) is as if trying to kick another company's flagship smartphone.Like S20 / S20+, the refresh rate of the S20 ULTRA display is 120Hz, but the size is 6..9 inches and huge.The battery is 5,000mAh, and the main wide -angle camera is 18 billion pixels.It is said that 9 pixels can be synthesized into one giant pixels and achieve higher image quality.

However, the most amazing S20 ULTRA camera is the 100x zoom function and the space zoom.Combining a 48 -megapixel sensor and a 4x optical zoom, it is a loseless 10x zoom, and if you add a digital zoom, it can be expanded to 100 times.

This zoom function has not yet been hand -on, but the 10x zoom of Loseless is equivalent to the Huawei P30 Pro (although Huawei is a slightly powerful optical zoom), and the sign at the end of the road is easy.It looks like.This is quite powerful because the optical zoom is double or tripled on other smartphones.However, in S20 ULTRA, the zoom is realized by bending light using a mirror like a periscope, so the camera module is thicker.So compared to S20 and S20+, the size is 6 in the first place.Because of the 9 inches, S20 ULTRA is quite heavy.

The reason is 12GB of RAM

By the way, the RAM of the S20 series has 12GB.I often hear voices such as "Is it a personal computer?" "Is it necessary to have a bigger memory than a PC?"I make the game on the memory.This eliminates the need to reload each time each time you switch the app or game, and you can quickly switch between work and play, play and play.

Regarding the refresh rate of 120Hz, oneplus 7T / 7pro and Google pixel 4 are 90Hz, so it seems to be one step further.However, it is actually a little shoulder watermark, and the 120Hz mode of S20 is only effective when the setting is full HD+.If the 3200 X 1440 WQHD+resolution of the S20 is enabled, it will be forcibly lowered to 60Hz, which seems to be to reduce the battery consumption.

As usual, in addition to these glittering features, there are various new tricks in the S20 series, such as 240Hz touch response and Samsung Quick Share (such as the Galaxy version of Apple's AirDrop).The Music Share function that allows you to share one Bluetooth connection with multiple Galaxy smartphones is that you don't have to pair pairing and release many times when you are in a car or listen to music with a Bluetooth speaker.is.

That's why the S20 family is a generation of Samsung whole body.By supporting 5G in all versions (although the degree is slightly different), it seems that the transition to 5G in the future will be easier.The only worrisome thing is that even the "cheapest" S20 starts from $ 1,000 (about 110,000 yen), especially for people in areas where the 5G network has not reached.

The Galaxy S 20 family will start pre -ordered on February 21, and will be released on March 6.The color varies slightly depending on the model, but it is a total of four colors, cloud pink, cloud blue, cosmic gray, and cosmic black.
