The Galaxy-S20-series is massively in the criticism. It concerns both individual components such as the battery and the low-performance Exynos processor. But it is also about the total package. And that seems to have compared to the top models from the past year hardly improved. On the contrary: in many Places the Galaxy S10 is superior to the new flagship.

So it turned out in our review that the battery life of the Galaxy S20 rips anyone off the stool. The Foundation is awarding in this category, only the grade of “satisfactory confirmed”. The Galaxy S20+ and S20 Ultra-get away from here better. In the case of the test, however, both models do not provide a “sufficient”. The Galaxy S20+ must be even with the Endnote “satisfactory” satisfied.

We have subjected to the camera of the Ultra-edition of several Tests. In one case, Samsung’s top model against the one year old Huawei P30 Per loses. Another Test revealed that the 100-fold Space Zoom is more likely to come from the pen of a creative Marketing employee. Because, in practice, this is a nice Gimmick.

those Who spend around € 1,000 for a Smartphone such as the Galaxy S20+, expected to be entitled to a great Performance. However, the Exynos processor seems to make the top Smartphone in a dash through the bill. In a Test it turned out that around 250 Euro cheap Xiaomi Note 8 Pro performs in terms of processor Power better. During a game, such as the refresh rate drops after minutes from 60 to 40 fps. The Xiaomi phone, however, remains even after 30 minutes of Gaming a constant 60 fps.

That the processor of the Galaxy-S20-series could spell Trouble, was Samsung, apparently, already prior to the start of sales aware of. For the first time the group has waived the company’s home market in South Korea to his top models to an in-house Exynos processor. Instead, Samsung launched the smartphone with a Snapdragon Chip in the trade.

German-Galaxy-S20-models are worse
