The Note 20 Ultra has some really big cameras. [credit: iFixit ]
The Galaxy Note20 Ultra has hit the hands of the teardown specialists at iFixit, giving us an inside look at Samsung's latest flagship.
If the super big camera bump didn't clue you in from the outside, from the inside it's clear Samsung is spending a huge amount of space on the multi-camera setup. Even iFixit says it's "striking how much extra real estate the [Galaxy Note 20] Ultra devotes to its camera modules." Samsung does its best from the outside to make all the lenses look the same, but actually the center 108MP sensor is much larger than the top wide-angle sensor, and the bottom periscope camera is an even bigger sideways assembly.
Multiple cameras have become a nearly mandatory marketing tool in the smartphone business, but I sure hope users are getting their money's worth out of actually using them. Every big component in a smartphone takes room away from other features or additional battery capacity (see: the headphone jack argument). With a single camera, Samsung and other manufacturers would have a lot more room to play with.
