We get up-close with the 100x zoom on the Samsung S20 Ultra

Samsung recently launched their latest line up of the Galaxy range of phones on 11 February at the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event. These phones are essentially the next generation of smartphones from Samsung and supposed to replace the S10 range of phones. So, we here at Digit made our way to the Samsung Galaxy S20 India launch event and got our hands on all three of the Galaxy S20 smartphones. One of the key features of Samsung’s flagships for 2020 are the cameras and what they can do. So, we checked out the 0.5X to 100X zoom on the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra, Single Take Mode on the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus, and Photo, Video and Night Modes on the S20 Plus. We also clicked some sample images on the S20 Plus which are shown here in this video at the end. Here are our first impressions of the cameras on the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra and Galaxy S20 Plus series of smartphones.
