64 TECH ADVISOR • JUNE 2020REVIEW
S10 product line has been repositioned in the S20 so
it’s smack-dab in the centre of the top of the screen.
While the hole is still a little too low to centre itself
inside the status bar, its new position still improves
the look of the phone.
I can’t really find a fault with the image quality.
It’s impressively crisp at 1440p and still very nice at
the default 1080p resolution. I was able to crank it
all the way up to 650 nits’ brightness manually, and it
reached an eye-piercing 1,350 nits with auto-brightness
enabled. Its ability to transition automatically between
low and bright light is excellent. Colours are vivid
without being too saturated, whites are natural, blacks
are impressively deep, and the whole palette is rich andThe front camera
in the S20 line
has moved to
the middle of
the top of the
screen, a positive
change from
the awkwardly
off-centre hole
of the prior
generation. (As
shown in the
S20 and S20+,
above)64 TECH ADVISOR • JUNE 2020REVIEW
