This smartphone got a total score of 121 points at the DXOMark. Based on the review, the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G is a solid performer in rendering vivid colors and fast autofocus features. It also delivers generally accurate exposure.

The report shows that the device captures an exceptional color rendering that gives high levels of saturation for very vibrant images, minor color casts, and accurate white balance. Its fast and accurate autofocus means images are almost always in sharp focus and the level of detail is acceptable in all conditions. However, it has slightly more noise than other Samsung devices.

Overall, DXOMark has rated the image quality of the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G as excellent with its pleasant exposure, vibrant color, and good detail. This garnered the device a rating of 130 and 101 for the photo and video category, respectively.

“Its position in the upper ranks of our database is well deserved, and most smartphone photographers will be delighted with the results. The main disappointment, however, is the Note20 Ultra 5G’s zoom capabilities at close and medium range, which undermine an otherwise excellent performance and prevent the device from ranking higher in the DXOMARK Camera database.”
