So I have a couple of choices and id like to hear your opinions guys

(All Exynos versions, tried getting a snapdragon but cant, its just too expensive, N20U SD version costs like a new S21 Ultra)

1. Note 20 Ultra N985F/DS (4G Version) for 1000 bucks

2. Note 20 Ultra N988B (single sim, 5G) for 1070 bucks

3. Note 10 Plus N975F (4G) for 765 bucks

4. Note 10 Plus N976B (5G) for 825 bucks

Is the N20U really worth the extra money?

I'm upgrading from a Galaxy S8+ so battery is really important (my S8+ battery is still really good after 2 years) and the s-pen is also very handy for me

Camera is really important and the overall performance of the phone

And fast charging is also really important, N20 has 25W and N10 has 45W

If u don't want to be soiled by 120hz than go for note 10, and if 5g is not ur thing than go for 4g models. Notes 20 ultra battery is bad, my gf has it and she can bearly get 5 hr of sot(120 hz on, exynos version, med brightness), s20 exynos series has bad battery life, had my self and s20 and battery bearly lasted 3hr so yeah. 

 

Of course note 20 ultra will be better than 10 invalmost anyway, but battery is problem, don't watch reviews, because they only feature notes whit SD in them!!!

 

I would rather buy phone whit SD processor,than note whit exynos, my personal opinion.

 

Yes samsung has good screens, but other phone screens aren't that bad. I'm currently choosing from oneplus, because gave back my S20 cuz battery life was trash(exynos).

Look out for new exynos processors, maybe it's wiser to wait for new note, but on current track record, it's unknown how they will turn out. 

 

P.s I think starting from s9 series exynos samsungs all have been trash in battery life(notes included) , so be careful.

How does your girl uses the phone?

Is she a heavy user?

My uses are mainly WhatsApp, YouTube and forums online

I'm not the type of person that shreds the battery with games and stuff like that, for that I have a pc 

I'm a pretty light user but can can heavy sometimes if I need to do something important and I'm not near my pc

I still get around 5-6 YouTube hours on my S8+ after 2 years and it has a "small" 3500Mah battery

I thought about getting the SD version but I see that it may cause problems on its way and at the customs

its 1200 bucks but I can end up paying 1800 or even more or not even getting it at all

She's a regular user, some phone calls, texting, what'sapp, maybe 2-4 YouTube videos per day, fb, messenger, all on mostly 4g. And yeah battery isn't that great on note 20 ultra
