Starting with its build, the Galaxy S20+’s 6.7-inch screen isn’t that much smaller than the 6.9-inch panel on the S20 Ultra, really missing out on much when it comes to overall viewing experience.

The S20+’s camera module isn’t a huge, boxy thing that sticks out like a ravenous overbite, it’s lighter, sleeker, and much more suited to one-handed operation too.

As for its display, the S20+ still has support for a 120Hz refresh rate (but only at FHD+ resolution, mind you), which when combined with an excellent peak brightness of 729 nits and incredibly vivid colors, there’s absolutely no compromise in image quality.

In fact, the only phone in recent history with a display that comes anywhere near matching the S20+’s screen. Also, like the standard S20 and S20 Ultra, the S20+ features slightly less rounded sides, which reduces distortion around the edge of the screen while still providing an extremely comfortable and polished in-hand feel and IP68 water-resistance .

The S20+ doesn’t fall short on specs either, boasting the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chip, 12GB of RAM, 128GB of base storage (or 512GB if you go for the optional upgrade), and microSD card slot you get on the S20 Ultra.

The only thing you’re really missing is the built-in headphone jack found on last year’s Galaxy S10. it’s not like the S20 is really losing ground there either.
