Galaxy Z Flip

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 has arrived to fill the shoes of the highly successful Galaxy Z Flip 3. Samsung unveiled the device on August 10, 2022 with the release set for August 26. It was great to see that the company didn’t increase the $999 starting price.

Galaxy Note

August is Galaxy Note month and right on cue, Samsung unveiled two new handsets in 2020 as well. The Galaxy Note 20 and Galaxy Note 20 Ultra went on sale on August 21, 2020. They are the last Galaxy Note flagships as the series has now been absorbed into the Galaxy S22 Ultra.

There are some major differences between the two models. The Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra feature a 6.7-inch flat FHD+ display and a 6.9-inch Quad HD+ curved display with dynamic 120Hz refresh rate. The former doesn’t have a microSD card slot while the latter does. Both don’t support 45W super fast charging, maxing out at 25W instead.

While the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra retains the signature metal and glass build that Samsung flagships have become familiar far, the Galaxy Note 20 only gets a plastic back. That’s a surprising decision Samsung has made this year, in addition to not offering 120Hz refresh rate on the smaller handset.

They also use the same Exynos 990/Snapdragon 865+ chipsets with the Note 20 only getting 8GB RAM while the Ultra gets a 12GB RAM configuration as well with up to 512GB of storage.
