Announced at Samsung Galaxy Unpacked in San Francisco last month, the Galaxy S20+ 5G is one of the first devices to use Qualcomm"s new Snapdragon 865 chipset, and more importantly, it"s one of the first smartphones to support both sub6 and mmWave 5G. Of course, that makes it pricey at $1,199. Our model came from T-Mobile, which has a nationwide sub6 network and mmWave in select cities.
Of course, the S20+ has a whole range of improvements over its predecessor. For one thing, it has a 120Hz Super AMOLED display, which is just beautiful. Not only does it have vibrant colors and true blacks, but the refresh rate makes for a smooth experience. Oddly enough, it"s not on by default though, and you have to set the resolution to FHD.
There are also a host of camera improvements. The Snapdragon 865 chipset enables things like 8K, and you can record 960fps slow-motion video for longer. The main sensor is 12 megapixels, and there"s also a 64-megapixel telephoto lens and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens. Check out the unboxing video below:
