SamsungGalaxy S20+ 5G Android Smartphone - SIM Free Mobile Phone - Cosmic Black, 128 GB

The Amazon reviews for the Samsung S20+ made my decision harder than it should have been. Maybe they were just old reviews or maybe Samsung changed their policy on what is included in the box or perhaps rogue reviews, but I have no complaints whatsoever.The phone arrived two days earlier than estimated so thank you to Tech Zone, the supplier. The box was factory sealed and inside there was the S20+, a USB-C to USB-C charging lead, a USB-C quick charge power adapter (UK style) and USB-C ear bud headphones. Funnily enough, I never found the SIM tray ejection tool but so what, I had one already and a paper clip will do. Therefore, what are all the complaints about Samsung being miserly and supplying just a phone and charging lead?Having transferred all the stuff from the S7 to the S20+ using the apps supplied by Samsung, inserted the SIM and got everything up and running it was time just to get on and use it. I've been very happy with the S7 and have held onto it because it did everything I needed so I wasn't compelled to upgrade - until it became full. So why did I choose the S20+ rather than the latest and greatest? Mainly because the screen is better than the S21+ and I wanted to keep the option to use a micro SD card. I also saved quite a bit money by opting for last year's model.This phone is definitely more slick to use and I like that the screen is a little bigger than the S7, but not too much bigger. To me the camera doesn't seem all that much better than the S7 even though its resolution is hugely different in 4:3 mode, but I didn't buy this for the camera - it's my digital assistant more than anything and the fact it takes good pictures is a bonus. The Bluetooth range seems better though that may be subjective and when I caught a 5G data connection in London that was impressive: 300Mb whilst travelling in a taxi!All these review claims are false from what I have experience with the S20+ after two weeks of use:No headphone supplied: Yes, they are.No power charger supplied: Yes it is.Battery life is awful: No, it is amazingly good with more than 50% left when I put on charge at bedtime.Screen breaks easily: I can't confirm that of course, but my assumption is it'll be at least as good as the S7 and that never broke ... ever.Sound quality is dreadful: no it isn't. For music it is better than the S7 and for phone calls I did wonder about it at first but I think I just happened to be in a poor signal area. It has been fine since.To sum up, I am completely happy with this phone. It has slipped into my life with no hassle or fuss and works pretty much like my old phone but with a better screen and offering a much more responsive experience. I purchased the 128Gb model (only one I could get) and added a 128Gb micro SD card, so hopefully I'm set up for another six years or so.

I recently purchased the Samsung S20+ from Amazon, and I must say that their service, as usual, was superb. The quick delivery was a pleasant surprise.The phone arrived in perfect condition, exactly as described in the listing. While it was listed as being in "very good" condition, I would personally consider it to be in excellent condition.What's great about this particular phone is that it's a UK version, ensuring it meets all the necessary standards. It came in its original packaging, complete with earphones.Upon using the phone, I found that it works perfectly. It runs smoothly, and I received all the necessary updates, ensuring it's up to date.One of the key aspects for me was the absence of any scratches on the screen or the back of the phone. It truly looks like new. The camera lenses were also clean and clear, allowing me to take sharp and vivid photos.The fingerprint and face recognition features work flawlessly, providing an added layer of security and convenience.Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase. The Samsung S20+ in excellent condition, quick delivery, and the peace of mind that it's the UK version, make it a fantastic buy. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a top-quality mobile phone.

Samsung have a big challenge ahead filling out the expectations that Huawei is leaving.I bought this telephone to replace my 2 years old Huawei P20 pro, decided to don't go for a Chinese brand this time.1st. Battery performance: half day if you're lucky, it drains around 10% battery overnight optimizing the device before going to sleep, the battery starts draining immediately after disconnecting the charger, while you're just browsing you see the numbers going down in a matter of seconds. While with my P20 pro after 2 years I can still get more than a day of battery life with intensive use.2nd. Camera: you get 8k video recording with this device, more than what you need really, but pictures are not as sharp as the 2 years old P20 pro, maybe because the P20 pro have Leica lenses, but the autofocus, night mode and sharpness are far better in the Huawei device.3rd. Signal: again can not compare this phone with my old P20 pro, while using the Samsung S20+ 5G I found myself at work out of range using a EE SIM card! While with the old telephone I had never experienced being out of coverage.Going back to my old telephone in the same spot I had a 4G+ connection with an average internet speed of 30mbps.Overall experience: I will wait for a while, maybe Samsung will bring Qualcomm Snapdragon to Europe and that maybe will make a big difference, but for the price you are paying you don't get a lot, the screen quality is very good, the sound is ok, but is missing the most important, we all want a wireless telephone, we don't want to be connected to a cable all day to use a device that suppose to bring us flexibility.At the end I returned the Samsung S20+ 5G, I am using my old telephone again, I learned that I must value more my Huawei P20 pro and I suppose that I will wait until something better will come to replace him, but now I can see that is not the time.

Got this for my daughter who had the latest samsung galaxy mobile. She was unable to add a memory card and the pictures weren't as crystal as the new mobile which she had a while ago. She is happy she has given up the latest technology mobile for a later ( but better) older mobile.
