The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Big. Powerful. Expensive. Samsung's latest superphone is arresting and feature-packed.

Samsung's flagship device has a 6.9-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate (that's the fastest you can get.)

The S Pen stylus sets the Note family apart from the Galaxy S line.

The high-resolution screen is bold and beautiful.

As are the mystic bronze color and matte finish.

The S Pen gets faster this year.

The 120Hz screen support makes the S Pen more responsive on the Note 20 Ultra than the regular Note 20 or other Note phones (the Ultra's S Pen works on other Notes, and vice versa).

This mystic bronze finish is shimmery and striking. The camera bump is large.

Samsung has done a nice job styling the camera array, despite its largesse.

How do you feel about the bump? It's two inches tall, one inch wide and two inches diagonally.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
