    Am i the only one that thinks a plastic back is an upgrade from glass ? Glass on the back of any phone is fashion nonsense? What is the point of glass on the back of a phone , other than fashion? We can't really get around glass on the front , but glass on the back is just nonsense to me . Because as we all know it's glass and glass breaks ! The sooner this fashion gets dropped the better ! As coincidence would happen i almost bought one today from a used shop . The price was £340 in wonderful condition here in Scotland , have i missed out ? That's why I'm on this channel to see if i should return to the shop ?

    The fact that the plastic back is coated to a point where it feels almost identical to a coated glass back is one aspect that saves the physical feel of the same and makes the plastic back even an advantage compared to glass backed phones, since you get nearly the same feel as a coated glass back but scratches are less visible, its more durable and it doesnt make your hands sweat anywhere near as much when gaming or generally holding the phone when it warm/hot. That last one is a particularly good advantage of the plastic back

    I'm typing this on a note 10. I'd say the Note 20 would still worth it if my Note 10 is still working nicely... only complaint is the ghost touches when the phone gets cold/wet. But that didn't start til after 3 years of ownership and many drops.
    Probably would buy it over the s23 just based on it being like half the price.

    I bought this off Amazon specifically for the use with N Real AR glasses and the phone is absolutely fantastic. It's nice to see your review confirm what I’ve been enjoying for the past couple of months. This is definitely the best phone I've ever owned so far with new features that took me by surprise. The only thing that sucks is the lack of a SD card slot.

    A legendary phone in the truest sense of the word. Its strengths are that the screen is very clear and not thick. Also, the camera is from a Sony sensor. There is a professional photography mode, but the manual mode has been removed. The lens has become automatic, unlike the Note 5. I hope my idea is communicated because I am very weak in English 🙂

    I bought my Note 20 5G from eBay. A couple of scratches on the corners and the screen has a thin crack going left to right. I cannot see the crack when watching videos. The phone was $75 shipped. I added a clear case with kickstand and a glass front screen and rear camera protector. I've had for 3 months and the phone is doing great. I cannot believe I have a $1000 phone 3-4 years after release. 😊

    Honestly the problem with this phone is it's still so good my contract is due for upgrade but I can't find a convincing reason to upgrade. Either I'm going to a phone without stylus or I HAVE to get the s23 ultra or pay crazy amounts for the flip. Plastic back is seriously a non-issue, it's lighter and you always cover your phone anyways

    Honestly, the fact that they don’t keep updating android is why I stay with Apple as my primary phone. It’s ridiculous. 3 years and it might not get the next version of android??? That’s crazy. I keep an old Note just as a secondary device but until they can keep android up to date for at least 5 years I can’t come back to this mess.

    This phone isn't supported with android version it's on its currently on its security patch, it's not getting android 14 because it's not apart of the new 4 android update and 5 year security updating policy. However in terms of heavy intensive tasks we will have to wait and see in few weeks but as of now in the android department it has the best chipset the 888 and 8G1 has alot of heating and throttling issues especially the 8G1 8+ G1 was a significant improvement and more efficient but it's not as good as a SD 865 or 865+ in fact these can do Pubg at 90fps on the 2ⁿᵈ lowest graphic setting, it could do cod mobile and ultra fps and I believe it could do genshin at 120fps while the 888 and 8G1 can do it's limited to max grahic at 60fps in these games.
