| [* black] Turning back to the upper half of the phone for a minute, we notice that the space underneath the motherboard is looking decisively less shiny than [guide|131607|previous|stepid=259201|new_window=true] [guide|120331|Galaxy Phones|stepid=232003|new_window=true]. | |
| [* black] It looks like Samsung may have already gotten off the copper heat pipe hype train! This new material looks like graphite. [graphite explainer] | |
| [* black] Hold that thought though, [https://youtu.be/rHMOm_3whOM?t=966|some other Note 20 phones] ''do ''have copper heat pipes... The graphite pad might be an upgrade to handle 5G heat? | |
| + | [* black] But hold ''that'' thought, [https://youtu.be/-SKoM4YzizA?t=423|here's|new_window=true] a non-5G vanilla note with graphite. Maybe this is some kind of A/B test? There must be some logic to this, but we can't figure it out. Let us know in the comments if you have any ideas. |
| [* black] Both phones are also equipped with the caterpillar-looking millimeter-wave antennas we first saw in the [guide|125590|Note 10+ 5G|stepid=242801|new_window=true], though curiously we only find two in each device, instead of the three found in previous mmWave equipped phones. | |
| [* black] Back on the bottom end of things we note that the vanilla Note 20 has been deemed "not Ultra enough" to have a square vibration motor—also first seen in the Note 10+ 5G. | |
| - | [* icon_note] Both of these motors pale in comparison to Apple's Taptic Engine, but the upgraded square motors are noticeably better at delivering precise haptics. |
