Yes, you heard it right Samsung Galaxy Note 20 has a plastic build and it’s priced at Rs 77,999 in India for 8GB of Ram and 256GB storage. I mean, these days even 20k smartphones don’t have the plastic build and you gonna pay almost 80k for a plastic build.

Is it Worth Buying Samsung Galaxy Note 20?
No, Samsung Galaxy Note 20 is not worth buying because it’s an overpriced smartphone. You’re getting plastic build, 60Hz display, and Exynos chip instant of Qualcomm, so I think it’s better to skip Galaxy Note 20 and either go with Galaxy Note 20 Ultra or OnePlus 8 Pro.
Also, if you want to buy flagship smartphone then I think you should wait for iPhone 12 series which will launch very soon but if you’re not apple person than OnePlus 8 Pro is great option.
By the way, if you want that S pen then you can also take a look at Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra which is priced at Rs 1,04,999 for 12GB of Ram and 256GB storage.
Coming back to Galaxy Note 20, I really don’t get Samsung because they just added plastic in flagship smartphones which not acceptable. The Display is also FHD+, they didn’t even provide QHD+ display.
If you see Galaxy Note 20 very closely, Samsung is trying to push people to buy Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. If you remove the S pen from Galaxy S20 then it’s 40k smartphone but hey, it’s Note series, so it should be expensive.
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 India price, and availability
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 price in India starts from Rs 77,999 for 8GB of Ram and 256GB storage and the phone is available in Mystic Green, Mystic Bronze color options.
The Galaxy Note 20 will be available from 28th August 2020 in India through Amazon India.
Conclusion
I don’t recommend Samsung Galaxy Note 20 because it’s not value for money smartphone. It’s a Samsung branded phone and it’s a South Korean company.
So if you don’t want to buy a Chinese smartphone and you don’t like iPhones then still, Galaxy Note 20 is not worth buying. You should take a look at Galaxy S20 series or if you have a budget then Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is also a good option.
