The autofocus of the Galaxy S20 will have made Samsung drool. The Galaxy S20 with an Exynos 990 processor has received an OTA system update to address autofocus issues. The Galaxy S20 Ultra didn't get through either. Due to the longer focal length of the 108MP main sensor, the autofocus was not working properly, leaving the subject blurred at times.
As a solution, Samsung has deployed a "close zoom" mode, which helps the user take the perfect shot. However, this system update cannot solve the problem, since these autofocus malfunctions are directly related to the hardware specifics of the 108 MP sensor. However, on Monday, June 29, it seems that Samsung has learned the lesson,as the renowned leaker IceUniverse claims on Twitter.

According to his information, the Galaxy Note 20's 108Mp sensor will have no autofocus problems. IceUniverse unfortunately does not go into detail. Nevertheless, one suspects that the manufacturer's choice to opt for a Soc Snapdragon 865 for the Note 20 has something to do with it. According to the leaker, this processor will also power the Galaxy Tab S7, as well as the Galaxy Fold 2 and the Galaxy Z Flip 5G.
In addition, it also states that the presence of a QHD screen in 120 Hz appears to be compromised. This corroborates previous rumors that the Note 20 could be equipped with a 60 Hz slab in Full HD only. As a reminder, Samsung will officially present the Galaxy Note 20 and Fold 2 on August 5, 2020, at an Unpacked conference released online.
