Watch Samsung’s official Galaxy Note 20 Ultra unboxing video

As the video reveals, buyers of the new 5G handset will also receive the S Pen, a pair of AKG earphones, a travel adapter, a data cable, a set of spare eartips, an ejection pin for the SIM/Micro SD tray, and a Quick Start Guide.

It’s a whopper

A phone so big that there may be no pants in the world with a pocket large enough to hold it, the 6.9-inch Galaxy Note 20 Ultra features a camera module with a 108-megapixel main lens, a 12-megapixel wide-angle lens, and a 12-megapixel telephoto lens with a 5x optical zoom. The selfie camera, housed in a hole-punch notch at the top center of the display, will capture your toothy grin at 10 megapixels, while video enthusiasts can use the device to shoot movies at up to 8K resolution.

The Note 20 Ultra, which comes in bronze, black, and white, tips the scales at 208 grams (7.3 ounces), and includes a 4,500mAh battery offering fast charging to 50% capacity after 30 minutes.

Starting at $1,299 for 128GB of storage (expandable to 1 terabyte) and 12GB of RAM, the Note 20 Ultra will be available from August 21, with pre-orders beginning on August 6.

Does the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 work with the iPhone?
Apps page on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6.

Samsung's Galaxy Watch 6 is a popular choice for a smart watch, available in both regular and classic forms. The bright, vibrant display and improved battery life to keep going all day offer an enticing option, even making for a tempting upgrade from the Galaxy Watch 4 or Galaxy Watch 5.

However, before you buy a smart watch there's always the sticky question of phone operating system compatibility. To be useful, you need to link your smart watch to your smart phone -- but not every option for smart watch software plays nice with every phone OS. Samsung's smart watch options work happily with Android devices, but if you're hoping to use a newer Samsung smart watch with your iPhone then you'll run into some problems. Essentially, the newer versions of the Galaxy Watch aren't compatible with iOS, so they're not going to work with your iPhone.

If the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra is real, it needs these 7 features

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 is stupendously powerful and expensive — and I should know because I just bought one. It seems beyond the realms of possibility that Samsung would try to push out an even more expensive version of its already expensive phone, but the Korean company continues to surprise. Rumors abound that Samsung will announce not just the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 in the summer but an Ultra model as well.

It hardly seems conceivable that Samsung could cram any more into its ultra-premium foldable smartphone, but as ever, we have some ideas. If the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra is real, then it needs to pack in some seriously impressive tweaks and additions to make an undoubtedly even higher price worthwhile. Here are seven features it should have.
