Features, Performance, and Reviews for the Galaxy A20
The camera function of Galaxy A20
The Galaxy A20 has a 13 MP main camera that lets you take photos and videos in a quite high resolution. You may be a little dissatisfied with it in some situations, for example when you want to capture scenery in very high resolution or print out beautiful photos, but this should not be an issue you run into very often.
The Galaxy A20 comes with a 8 MP pixel camera, which is a standard level. It's perfectly fine for selfies, but may be not as satisfying if you wish to take photos of large numbers of people, or make printouts.
The battery performance of Galaxy A20
The Galaxy A20 has a battery with a quite large capacity of 4000 mAh. Compared to other smartphones, the battery life of the Galaxy A20 is very good and will no doubt satisfy all your needs. You won't have to worry about the battery even when you use the phone to watch videos or play games for hours on end.
Galaxy A20's size
The Galaxy A20 is 2.9 inches (74.7 mm) wide, 6.2 inches (158.4 mm) tall, and 0.3 inches (7.8 mm) thick. I can just barely use it with one hand, so it may feel big to some people. In the case of the Galaxy A20, it weighs about 169 oz (169 g). It feels a little heavy when held with one hand. It may tire your hand out if you operate it for too long a time.
In giving an overall rating to the Galaxy A20, while it may be slightly difficult to hold, it shouldn't be much of a problem when considering its general strengths and weaknesses.
Galaxy A20's screen
The Galaxy A20 has a 6.4 inch screen. The smartphone has a large, impressive screen, which allows you to enjoy photos and videos to the fullest. It is also very good for writing business documents and doing other work.
The resolution of the Galaxy A20's screen is pretty much standard. It shouldn't be a problem for normal use, but it might prove to be a bit dissatisfying for those who wish to better enjoy their photos, videos, or games.
The CPU performance of Galaxy A20
The 1.6GHz+1.35GHz×8(OctaCore) processing speed of the Galaxy A20 is on the higher side, so it should be able to run most apps with no problems. The performance of this phone is at a high level when compared to others released on the market so far. You can play a comparatively large amount of 3D games with next to no issues.
The Galaxy A20 has 3GB of RAM, so it has plenty of space. In rare cases this amount of RAM might not be sufficient, but there shouldn't be too much stress on the machine with this amount.
The Galaxy A20 has the overall operating speed of a high-end smartphone, so it will hardly ever cause you trouble. But you might need to be careful when using heavy apps like 3D games a lot.
Galaxy A20's storage capacity
The Galaxy A20 has 32GB of data storage, which is plenty for taking photos, but for people who frequently shoot videos or have lots of games installed, this may not feel like enough space.
Since the Galaxy A20 is compatible with SD cards, you'll be able to easily expand your storage capacity; you won't need to worry about how much internal space it has.
Overall assessment of Galaxy A20
The Galaxy A20 is a relatively high-performance smartphone. If you plan to use it as your main smartphone, you may find it slightly inconvenient, but within tolerable limits.
