Literally the only reason I'd get the S20 Ultra. I love taking some photos from time to time, but not enough to throw money at a dedicated camera. Plus, I like to have a camera on me at all times, so it fits to have a good phone with me. Unfortunately for time being I'm stuck with my S9+, thanks COVID... :p Good video btw.

Are you using the night mode ? because with just a small amount of light, even moon light, it works really well....

Love and the milky way shot on the Galaxy S20 ultra with the iso 800 less noise. Wonder how if put the moment lens with a filter .

Still wouldn't it be a smarter choice to wait out till Note 20 Ultra since camera software for this sensor is still in infancy and by the time note launches, it will mature and note will add few more features on top of it and still it would have a similar price tag as soc gets cheaper few months down the line.
