      Take a closer look in the shadows of the photos. Both are, of course, amazing devices. But IMHO I think the photos from B are always keeping more details in the shadows (in the first photo, for instance, check the girls coat in the bottom part, we can see some stripes-ish in the B, but we just can't in the A. The same happens to more photos). But we can't go wrong with any of the devices, that's for sure.

    I'm always surprised by the flak the fingerprint sensor on the Note gets; I have the Note 10 and, while the fingerprint sensor on it is not the fastest that I've tried, it works 99% of the time. That's about as reliable as the fingerprint sensor on the iPhones that I've had, and better than the one on the Samsung S8 I might add. I suspect that what helps in my case is that I register each thumb a couple of times from different angles, or maybe the quality of that sensor is not consistent and varies by the unit!

    I love both. The apple ecosystem works so well for me that third party solutions still can’t match. Video recording is the best on iPhones and standby battery is always good. But I love the note pen, and it’s so functionally useful, I don’t know why apple doesn’t bring it over. Also split screen on phones. There’s no excuse apple. I also like dex, and it’s getting better and better.

    I had the N20U, traded in for a IP12PM last year, and just this month went back to the N20U. Love both phones, both have their own unique qualities, however I think it is the app store that settles the argument for me.
    You cannot beat the quality of the apple app store and the way the apps seem to be hugely better for iOS than Android.
    IMHO.

    Great video Tom. I was pleasantly surprised by your battery life experience in the Note 20 Ultra v IPhone...I could live with 35% left at the end of the day. Seriously thinking of switching from iPhone to Note when my contract is up...it just looks like it would be fun to use 👍

    Note hands down. With all the customisation you can do on Android, plus the softwork takes advantage of the bigger screen with so many things. Side by side the camera might be better on iPhone but if u have 1 phone and take a picture with the note, u won't be left wanting anything else 👍🏻👍🏻

    Have been watching your videos for 2 years now and found your channel when I was researching what laptop to buy. (I ended up buying the Dell XPS 15) Just wanted to give props for always producing high quality content - great job! Phone wise I am using a Huawei mate 20 pro and have been super happy with that. I am looking to upgrade but think I will hold out for the Galaxy S21 as I think the Note is just very very big and also really a deal breaker with the Exynos having much lower performance.
    Do you think the Galaxy S21 will outperform the Note 20 Ultra in its maxed out version?

      Nah, don’t need gimmicks. iPhone lasts years, my 8 plus was incredible when I first bought it, and didn’t slow down at all, and I don’t think I ever had an app force shut down in the 3 years I owned it. Now upgraded to a 12 and given the 8 plus to my mum. However, before owning iPhone I always had android. I had an s7 edge, then an s8, which got swapped out for the iPhone 8 Plus. My s7 edge had huge amounts of screen burn, same with the s8 after just 1 year of owning. What use is having a good screen if it’s ruined after a year with screen burn? Same happened to my grandads s9 and my friends s10. Absolutely crap, however 3 years with my iPhone, not a single problem. Androids are buggy, not optimised and not future proof. People who own iPhone don’t care about these absolute gimmicky features, so enjoy them. We are happy with a phone that works absolutely seamlessly for years on end.

    I own both as well and I honestly have gotten to where I just prefer whichever phone my SIM card is already in. When I'm using my MacBook more, the iPhone Pro Max edges ahead. When I'm working the Note 20 Ultra is more useful with split screen. Many apps seem more flushed out on the iPhone version, but the Note 20 has customization, so it's whatever is more important to you. I will admit the fingerprint sensor has made the Note 20 win my SIM card on some days if I'm wearing a mask more.

    This was an awesome review to watch! I currently own both, and am in the process of deciding if to sell my Note 20 Ultra in favor of keeping the iPhone 12 Pro Max, or return the iPhone and stick with the Note. Something I really appreciate is good battery life, as I am a heavy user (Netflix, UA-cam, Spotify, etc.) and the iPhone 12 Pro Max gives me 8-10 hours of screen-on time, on average, while the Note 20 Ultra offers 6.5-7 hours on the 120 Hz setting. However, with the iPhone, battery life also depends on what apps you use the most, as the lowest I have gotten is just a meager 6 hours once (I am serious). Anyhow, although I am leaning towards keeping the iPhone as I have forever been an android user and am interested in trying out a different OS now, we'll see what I go with. Anyway, nice comparison! The points you mentioned rang true, based on my experience with both phones. : )

    I was tempted this year to finally try iphone as my main phone for the first time ever. Then they revealed it would not come with a charger, and no 120hz screen. So I might just keep my old s10+ a little longer. I like what I'm seeing with iOS being more customizable these days, how smooth and lag-free the iphone experience is, and the amazing resale value of an iphone. My s10+ will sell for less than half what I paid for it when it came out, and iphones the same age can bring in 2/3 of the cost it was brand new.

    When you did the battery test, you did not specify if both were at 1080 and 60fps, were they or were you running the Note 20 Ultra at either higher fps or resolution?

      i think default of note 20 ultra is 120Hz, if he would of test it on 60Hz i think both would be a draw or note 20 ultra will win.

      I'm currently trying to decide which I prefer. Been bouncing back and forth but think I'm leaning towards android.

    I prefered photos from camera A and I honestly though it was the iPhone until the 50x zoom. I like the nightmare better on the note too.

    Well, you didnt avoid the daily driver cliché, you still said it 😀. It must definitely be said somehow by UA-cam directly or indirectly.

    Hey ! Great review !
    Is the notch disturbing when you watch a video for example whereas the Note 20 Ultra is nearly a full screen phone ?
    I am on OnePlus 7 pro which is a great phone but I don't like the way OnePlus is taking ...
    I want to buy the next Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra next month 😁
    Sorry for my bad English, I'm french ! Have a great day

      It sure doesn't that's why I don't listen to these UA-camrs. They will lie to make a product they like look cooler than it actually is

    Been using android for years, my last android was the Note 9.
    I’ve been changing phone every year the last 10 years or so.
    Now I’ve had iPhone 11 and 12 pro Max.
    All I can say both are good and have pros and cons. The only truth is you won’t miss, both are great phones

    If you’re going for the note, be sure to look up the black screen of death issue. It’s been very common and I’ve had it myself. Samsung also won’t repair it under warranty, i had to pay A LOT to get it fixed and now I’m selling it for an older gen iphone lol
