Plastic back is better than the glass back . When you'll drop your phone, plastic will absorb the impact but glass will shatter and will cost $$$ to repair as compared to plastic. But i think Samsung should've really given QHD display, or at least better battery for 999 USD.

Not "today", as soon as the Unpacked event starts the embargo lifts for some stupid reason. I wish they were more secretive about it and create just a little bit more hype like Apple does. That's why Apple fans get so damn hyped about every Apple event. The official renders of iPhones almost NEVER leak before the event happens, even the most well-known reviewers get the phone maybe 3-4 days ealier at most, and they are never given an early heads up.

There is 1 major issue I have with this phone already from what I've noticed. I searched through all carriers and compared them to other phones and...I noticed that for the Note 20 series, Type C AKG headphones are missing from the "What's inside the box" section while in the S series the headphones are listed. I even looked at Samsung site and mention of the Type C AKG wired headphones is missing as well.
You forgot to mention the note 20 has a plastic back, and the Ultra is glass. They are NOT both glass. No one is going to pay $999 for a plastic phone.
