Samsung - Galaxy S20+ 5G Enabled 128GB - Aura Blue (Sprint)

Love it. Big screen, durable, lots of memory, ckear sound. Battery life excellent. Clear photos, see below Samsung voice to text still not amazing

Not what I was expecting to receive when ordering a $1200 phone.... big red sticker on an opened box. Mine is even more of a Best Buy exclusive than just the color. By the way, who opens a box with a tape gun or whatever they used to open this thing. I have never seen a knife that can pull that off. Worthwhile to start your 'box opening' videos with the shipping package first, to catch your reaction to stuff like this. I don't look forward to the forthcoming debate about the $45 restocking fee when I return it. And don't get me started on the other S20s I preordered which are delayed and haven't shipped yet.

I've been purchasing Samsung's S flagships for almost every year since the Galaxy S2; I skipped the S3 and the S5 because I didn't like their designs. After having owned the S20+ for more than a month, I have to say that it's pretty good. At $1200, though, I feel it's no longer a good value flagship for an S flagship device. If you already have a S10, then the S20 might not feel like a big improvement. Almost everything is just an incremental improvement, like the cameras, the screen, and the performance. But if you're still rocking an older phone that is >2 years-old, then you'll be in for a treat. I hesitated getting the S20+ but I still got it because my total cost after BB gift cards and certificates (plus a trade-in) brought down the price below $300. I would recommend the S20 phones only to people who own a Galaxy S8 or earlier device due to its high price. _____ *Pros: -Big and gorgeous screen. -120Hz refresh rate is very smooth and fluid. -The screen is no longer very curved on the sides, making it easier to find well-fitting glass screen protectors. -The camera launches quickly and the shutter speed is very quick. Photo & video quality is excellent. -microSD support. -Speakers sound loud & clear. -OneUI is getting better and better. -Despite being large and heavy (on paper), the phone feels well-balanced and it's easy to handle. -5G support. _____ *Neutral: -No more audio jack. -OneUI still isn't as customizable as Novalauncher & other third-party launchers. _____ *Cons: -$1200 for an incremental update (over the S10) is too expensive.

In December 2019, I upgraded from a S9+ to a Google Pixel 4XL. While I didn't hate the Pixel, it just wasn't the same. My biggest complaint was that the Pixel battery failed (wouldn't charge or would be stuck in 50%) on THREE devices. On the third occasion in a year the insurance company sent me an S10. Right away I remembered why I loved the Galaxy line. A couple days later I saw Best Buy had a sale on the S20+ and I couldn't resist. I've had the phone for a week now. The phone is quick, incredibly responsive, has a gorgeous display, and with the new Android 11 upgrade really has some amazing user friendly access features that I just love. Even better they got rid of the bixby button! In addition, a friend of mine who had been an iPhone user for life, made the changes after playing with my phone and she couldn't be happier as well. In particular, she loved the customization options and found the phone just as easy to use as an iPhone for half the price of an iPhone 11/12. Couldn't be happier with this device

Let's just begin with I started out regretting this phone. I actually received it FREE for adding a line to my account so I was really jacked about it. Come on, free phone AND the added bonus of the pre-order Samsung money!? I ended up receiving $150 of the possible $200 and a free phone for a line we were adding anyway. Loved that deal! Well, the phone came and right off the camera and battery were worse then my s8. I was so disappointed! I tried it for a week and a half because I couldn't get back to town and was ashamed to take any pictures. When I did get back the Best Buy rep checked it out and we even had the Samsung rep see what he could do. Couple of factory resets later they exchanged the phone. All seemed OK for the first 2 days then weird stuff like screenshots were blurry and my speaker sounded blown. I made a special trip back to town to start all over again. This time my phone rep went to talk to a friend in Geek Squad who said they just released an update that fixes all of these things. He did some things and got this update going. WA-LAH! HOLY COW huge difference! If I had stuck it out just a few more days on the first one I would still have my blue phone and everything working great! The pictures/video are awesome. There are a few features that I am getting used to like all the buttons on the left where I am right handed. I'm using YouTube to find out everything this phone can do but I do feel it was worth the initial trouble! Oh yes and I chose the Galaxy buds plus for my other free stuff!

A beautiful phone. Wait, am I actually saying that about a phone? When I was a kid, phones were not a thing of beauty. Ok, I am dating myself but Samsung keeps improving quality. To make a call, take a pic, surf the web, anything you need, and all with a gorgeous display and so much personalization choices. C’mon Apple, you need to step it up! Price is getting outrageous on most of these devices so I won’t complain to just Samsung, But for what it’s worth, it’s a nice bit of technology in the palm of my hand!

I've been a Samsung fan since the i900. Then the Galaxy series came out and I've been hooked ever since!! This S20+ 5G is very easy to handle even for regular-sized hands. It's pretty light and very responsive. The display is crisp, even when using 60Hz resolution. Transition is quick and snappy. The 30x zoom camera is awesome!!!! Much more detailed than other digital zooms. There's so much I can do on this phone but haven't had the time to explore as I've barely scratched the surface of what it can do!!! There's lots of reviews on the Ultra and S20 but not so much yet for this model. However, if you do get to read one, it will tell you the same I'm telling you now. It's the best of both worlds between the Ultra and S20!!!! With that said, the only thing I'd like to see in this phone is for the S Pen to be compatible with it... that's it! This would be a mobile powerhouse if the S Pen would work on it. Maybe a short thin design would go well with it and the color to match. C'mon Samsung, you need to make the S Pen compatible across all platforms. I'll bet you'd make a killing!!

I've had the Galaxy S20+ for a week, after switching from Galaxy S8. I've always bought phones at the Sprint store, but Best Buy was was a lot cheaper so I decided to try it. Best Buy made it very easy to transfer my old Sprint phone to the new one. I love how now I can use the Smart Switch and transfer all of my photos, app, contact, text, everything like it was on the old phone. I was worried the phone was going to be too big, but it really isn't, I got use to it right away. The camera, battery, storage space are amazing! Best Buy shipped quickly and I had tracking so it didn't sit on my porch.
