5 big things we've still got left to learn about the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 - TechRadar Posted: 07 Jun 2020 01:00 AM PDT The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 is one of the most highly anticipated phones left to come this year – arguably second only to the iPhone 12. That high status has inevitably meant it's been extensively leaked, but while we have a good idea about many aspects of the upcoming handset, there are still a number of things that we don't know. With that in mind we've created this article, highlighting five of the biggest things that remain unknown or unclear at the time of writing, including the price, chipset, and more. They're things that either haven't been leaked at all, or are subject to conflicting leaks, leaving us unsure of what to expect. 1. The Galaxy Note 20 priceWhile we can take a rough guess at the price of the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 based on its predecessor, this is one thing that hasn't actually leaked yet. The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 started at $949 / £869 / AU$1,499, so the starting price here might be similar, but with manufacturers regularly pushing prices up at the top end it might well cost more. As such it's something we're eager to know, since the cost could have a big impact on how desirable the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 is. 2. Will there be a Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra?For the Samsung Galaxy S20 range Samsung added a completely new model – the super-premium Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra, so there's been speculation over whether it would follow suit with the Galaxy Note 20 range. The consensus seemed to be that it wouldn't, as no details of a Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra had been leaked, and at least one source had specifically said there wouldn't be one. However, a Bluetooth certification listing has now mentioned a Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra by name, suggesting that it might well be in the works after all. 3. The chipsetWe're fairly confident – based on past form - that US buyers of the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 will get a phone with the top-end Snapdragon chipset, while most other regions will get the top-end Exynos one. But what those top-end chipsets will be is less clear. In the US there's debate over whether it will be the same Snapdragon 865 chipset as the Samsung Galaxy S20 range, or whether it will launch with a newer (and so far unconfirmed) Snapdragon 865 Plus chipset. Similarly, in other regions it could get the Exynos 990 (used by the Galaxy S20 range in most places outside the US) or the Exynos 992 – a rumored chipset that would offer a small performance boost. For now we're not at all sure which combination the Note 20 range will end up with, but it's sure to have top-end power in any case. 4. The camera specsWhile the camera specs for the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Plus have been leaked, we haven't heard much about the cameras on the standard Samsung Galaxy Note 20, which is surprising given what a major part of the phone that is. And even in the case of the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Plus, there's a big question over its optical zoom. We're expecting it will have a periscope lens, possibly with 50x digital zoom, but that's sure to be a gimmick like the 100x on the Galaxy S20 Ultra. The optical zoom is far more important. Our best guess for that would be 5x (as the digital zoom is often ten times the optical) but that hasn't specifically been leaked. 5. The screen resolutionOkay, so we do have some idea of what the resolution might be. Ross Young (a display supply chain consultant) tweeted that the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 would have a 6.42-inch 2345 x 1084 screen with 404 pixels per inch, and that the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Plus would have a 6.87-inch 3096 x 1444 screen with 497 pixels per inch. However, he has since deleted those tweets, and this is the only mention of those resolutions that we've seen. The sizes are also at odds with other - more recent - size leaks we've seen, so we're not at all confident that Young's information is right here. |
2020 iPhone Shock As Five ‘All-New’ Apple iPhones Revealed - Forbes Posted: 07 Jun 2020 06:58 AM PDT 06/07 Update below. This post was originally published on June 4 Apple's iPhone 12 lineup has already leaked in stunning detail. But now new information not only disputes a lot of this, it also gives a first look at the company's radical all-new 2021 iPhone. Respected Japanese site Macotakara delivers the shocks, having tapped into its supply chain sources to attain 3D printed models of Apple's four iPhone 12 models and completely overhauled 2021 redesign. If correct, the news is going to leave millions of iPhone users disappointed this year but blown away by Apple's ambitious plans for the so-called iPhone 13. 06/06 Update: Prosser issued a new update reiterating his position that the iPhone 13 will be different to the chassis mold Macotakara attained. Prosser believes that Apple will not move the iPhone 13 to USB-C but instead make a completely port-less model which relies on wireless charging and a Smart Connector for connecting third party accessories. He also believes that Apple will reduce the notch on the iPhone 12 and equip the Pro models with a LiDAR sensor. This creates a clear head-to-head between two prominent industry sources. 06/07 Update: EverythingApplePro has verified a recently leaked image of the new iPhone 12 logic board with repair specialist Rico Cerva, who confirms this is a genuine part. This has significant consequences with Apple returning to an L-shaped logic board design this year, as opposed to the stacked, rectangular layout used in recent generations. This is understood to make room for the larger 5G modem and camera sensors as well as the (disputed) LiDAR sensor in the Pro models. The caveat is, while authentic, the logic board is a relatively early prototype so there is still time for this to change before the finalized next-gen iPhone goes into mass production next month. Starting with the four iPhone 12 models, Macotakara shows that contrary to popular opinion (and despite all-new internals), externally the range will not deviate as far from the iPhone 11 lineup as widely expected. The models show Apple will stick with the large display notch introduced with the iPhone X, retain the Lightning port and exclude the LiDAR sensor first seen on the new iPad Pro and tipped to be introduced on the iPhone 12 Pros. This means the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max stick with triple cameras in a triangular array, though the new entry-level 5.4-inch iPhone 12 and 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Max will get dual cameras whereas the iPhone 11 has just a single module. Overall, there are significant disappointments here but, conversely, Macotakara's mold of the 2021 entry-level iPhone 13 blows away all expectations. For 2021, Macotakara states Apple will replace the notch with a tiny punch hole for the front camera and hide all other FaceID sensors under the display thanks to 'Under Panel Sensor' technology from Samsung. Thanks to thinner bezels, the display of the 5.4-inch model will also increase to 5.5-inches in the same chassis, and the Lightning port will finally be replaced by USB-C. Lastly, the back of the phone shows space reserved in the camera bump for up to five modules. While a lot can still change in terms of the 2021 design, if Macotakara's sources are correct, I suspect many potential iPhone 12 owners postpone their upgrades to 2021. Internally, the iPhone 12 models will be all-new thanks to the biggest A series upgrade in years, 5G across the range, 120Hz ProMotion displays (with some doubts) and prices which will undercut the competition. That said, a fourth generation of the same design introduced by the iPhone X in 2017 may prove to be a dealbreaker. All of which sets us up for a clash of the heavyweights. Macotakara famously scooped Apple's decision to remove the headphone jack in 2016 and has delivered a solid array of exclusives ever since. That said, Jon Prosser, 2020's most accurate Apple insider to date, has very different ideas about the iPhone 12 and 13 so watch this space. ___ Follow Gordon on Facebook More On Forbes 2020 iPhone Alert: Apple's New Price Changes Revealed |
