Samsung Galaxy A20 hardware
How big is a Samsung A20? What makes it attractive and functional? These are just a few of the questions you need to answer. The gadget comes with a beautiful body that is attractive. It also has an appealing outward appearance that makes it fancy to carry around. The following are a few more aspects of the phone's hardware you need to know about.
Design
This phone is not different from all the other A-series released in 2019. It comes with an infinity-V display with a slim plastic body. The smartphone comes in 5 different colour options namely black, coral orange, red, deep blue, and golden.
It has a 6.4-inch display and superslim bezels with a top U-shaped notch casing. It also has a front-facing camera, which makes the Galaxy A20 to be easily mistaken for other fancier phones. It is one of Samsung's best phones especially if you consider the fact that it is affordable. The plastic casing does not seem cheap too. However, you need to consider getting a cover since the phone is prone to scratches.
Display
It comes with a 6.4-inch AMOLED display as already mentioned. It has a 1560 x 720 resolution. This may not be as sharp as the FHD+ panel found on the A50 but it works just fine. You may have to compromise on the text, the app icons as well as the gestures as they all appear to be partly jagged on this phone's display. You may also want to watch out for the video streaming since the display is not ideal as it is currently.
It also comes with a very huge and bright screen that hits 465 nits on the light meter. This falls just under smartphones' average of 488 nits. However, the display is bright enough that you can see it on a sunny day. The A20 also features a convenient dark mode that does not make you strain when using the phone, especially at night.

Processor, storage, and performance
When it comes to performance, this phone is of average performance. It has an Exynos 7904 chipset powering it. This works for mid-range systems. This less powerful chip is what makes the phone affordable.
According to an overall performance test, the phone scored a 4,174 in Geekbench 4. This test measures the overall system performance. You need to be careful with how you use the apps on the phone. This has to be done one at a time if you do not want it to lag. Using multiple apps causes the phone to slow down everything else.
This phone is not made for gaming, which is the case with most mid-range and budget-friendly smartphones. In addition to slow apps, there are other things that are also painfully slow with the app including its fingerprint sensor. When choosing to purchase this phone, you have to compromise a lot of other aspects including speed.
When it comes to storage, the Galaxy A20 holds 32GB of storage. However, only 15GB to 20GB of it is utilized for your photos and other apps. The programs Metro preloads on the device. While it is possible to delete some of them, you may have to disable others in the settings if you are to get more storage back.
Battery
This may be the one thing that you will love about this phone. The battery life is impressive as it comes with a 4,000 mAh battery. Continued usage of the phone gives you at least 13 hours of service. It comes with a fast charger bundled in the box. The battery charges up to 35 percent in the first 30 minutes and generally takes less than two hours to get to full charge.

OS and features
This Galaxy gadget comes with Android 9 Pie installed. It also comes with a One UI interface meaning that large app icons, as well as texts, come at the bottom of the screen. This is what makes the big-screen work. The gesture-based navigation is very simple and easy to understand. This unique navigation will ensure that the screen remains clean and free from extra buttons.
Camera, video and image quality
The Samsung Galaxy A20 comes with a dual-camera setup on its backside. Its main camera is a 13 megapixels 76° wide-angle camera that has autofocus. The camera comes with a 5 megapixels 123° ultrawide angle camera. It is this camera that offers an LED flash, HDR, and full HD video recording.
