Samsung never ceases to amaze us with its cutting-edge technology and innovation in the smartphone world. Samsung revolutionized the smartphone industry by taking a bold step by introducing the Note series phones with a display size of 5.3 inches, which was very big and unusual during 2011. With the introduction of the Note series with a stylus pen, it was very clear that Samsung wanted the Note series to be not just another smartphone, but to be a mini-computer in the user’s hands. With the extra-large display coupled with the stylus pen, now the user can do more, than an average smartphone user.

In this article, we will compare two phones from the Note series namely Samsung Note 10 plus and Note 20 Ultra.

It has a 60 Hz refresh rate which is compared to 90 Hz in today’s premium phones, it is a little less but you won’t feel it since the navigation and gaming is superfluid.

The Verdict:

Both are powerful beasts that have their own pros and cons. Currently, there is a price difference of around 30000 to 35000 between Samsung Note 10 Plus Vs Samsung Note 20 Ultra. So for me Samsung Note 10 Plus looks like a better choice because Samsung Note 20 Ultra’s price is not justified. But if you don’t care much about the price and you want to select the best of the two just for the little extra in everything, you can absolutely go for Samsung Note 20 Ultra.
