  • The same large adhesive gasket holds both the back cover and camera bump in place—but the bump can be carved off separately, making for some interesting DIY customization possibilities.

  • ... and, unlike the S20 Ultra, the glass camera lenses can be individually replaced—which is probably a good thing.

  • With the back panel removed, we can gawk at how humongous this phone looks next to our tiny Minnow Driver Kit.

  • The 'lil guy still gets the job done—proving it's not the size of the toolkit that matters, but how you use it.

  • The guts seem a slight iteration over last year's S20 Ultra, with minor changes to the wireless charging coil and upper antenna assemblies.

  • The earpiece speaker comes out with the antenna assembly this go-round, which is an updated design we first saw in the Note 20—as opposed to being separately adhered to the frame in prior phones like the S20 Ultra.
