Design and Display
Take the wraps off Samsung Galaxy M20, and the first thing you’ll lay your eyes on is the Infinity-V notch. For the unacquainted, it is Samsung’s way of giving the world the waterdrop notch. Moving your eyes downwards, you’ll notice the small chin that leaves the screen with approximately 84% body ratio.
Having such space at the disposal of a 6.3-inch touchscreen is so nice. Combine with the 1080 x 2340 pixels that jumps in as the resolution; a decent visual experience is guaranteed. There are some unavoidable details of the display which includes the 19.5:9 aspect ratio, 409 ppi pixel density and multi-touch support.
Battery and Camera
The battery aspect of Samsung Galaxy M20 is quite interesting and is certainly going to give it more edge for potential buyers. Bagging similitude with the mammoth power of phones like TECNO Pouvoir 2 and TECNO Pouvoir 2 Air, the M20 holds 5,000mAh battery.which is far off from what you would get on average.
Even with all that much power, the phone doesn’t lag in any sector including the camera. Some splendid shots are taken with the 8MP shooter at the front. On the other hand, there’s the luxury of camera duo – 13MP primary and 5MP secondary for depth information.
Hardware and Software
Samsung implemented the newly launched Exynos 7904 as Galaxy M20’s system-on-chip. Possessing a total of 8 Kryo 260 Gold & Silver cores, the chip handles all operations of the device. Add to the fact that the octa-core CPU clocks 1.8GHz, with 14nm process and the 64-bit architecture .
Samsung’s customised Experience 9.5 and Android 8.1 Oreo OS are solely in charge of the software functions. That said, a 3GB RAM sorts out multitasking on the phone while another version of the phone comes with 4GB RAM. For the 3GB RAM variant, 32GB ROM is assigned to the storage compartment. However, the higher RAM variant is coupled with 64GB internal storage.
