Popped into PB today for a gander at the Ultra, my word the camera module is pronounced.
Most likely get a Sammy clear view case, which will hopefully sit a least flush with the module or better still slightly above.

It's a lovely looking piece of kit,doesn't feel unwieldy in hand to me.

I am not trying to hijack this thread but being in the market for the Note 20 Ultra, I have been doing some research on YouTube. Recently found that Xiaomi has launched the Mi 10 Ultra and while initially uninterested, the review by Mrwhosetheboss is telling us it is worthy of our consideration.

 

If you buy from Aliexpress it's about $1800 landed for a 512GB version (and there's also the 'cheaper' 128GB and 256GB versions), which isn't cheap by all means but it appears you get so much more.

 

Take a look because when we are shelling out over 2k for a device we expect it to have leading features.

Nope, the price i quoted includes GST. It is paid at checkout.

 

 

 

Update: I stand corrected. For some odd reason they haven't added tax - I think they are sorting out their systems considering they've only just added the phone to the listing.  I will revert when I can confirm more info.

 

Even if the pricing is the same as the Ultra, remember it comes with Snapdragon CPU, which we all want :)

I am checking that and will update. I believe it includes it as they aren't banned by the US. They do sell "international versions".
