Cubot Note 20 Pro Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Cubot Note 20 Pro - ambiguous improvements

The release of an improved version of the popular smartphone significantly saves the manufacturer's money. The design is already ready, it remains to remove the obvious flaws of the original and hold out the technical characteristics of the updated model to the standards of a higher price category. Does the hero of today's review match this description? Unfortunately, only partially.

The appearance of the novelty repeats that of its predecessor, however, the developer took care of adding new color schemes for the cases. The original design of the four cameras, not the largest display frames definitely go to the exterior pluses, however, the absence of a fingerprint scanner and inexpensive rear panel plastic are no longer relevant in the middle value segment. The 6.5-inch OGS screen is also not without its drawbacks. If the brightness and contrast of an IPS display are sufficient for many users, then the resolution of 1600x720 pixels is not enough for image clarity.

Of course, we can assume that such a screen was chosen to increase autonomy and performance. Now even the Mediatek Helio P60 processor , 6GB of RAM and the Mali G72-MP3 video chip will provide medium-high graphics settings in many resource-intensive games, and the Android Q interface will be very responsive. There is a lot of internal storage ( 128GB of ROM ), and MicroSD cards are supported, so you can store entire collections of photos, videos and various applications on the phablet.

The photographic possibilities are not surprising. 12-, 20-, 2- and 0.3-megapixel cameras actually duplicate those of the previous gadget and are suitable only for daytime shooting. Of course, with the proper skill, the buyer will be able to get evening photos with good detail, but several takes will be required. The 8MP front - facing sensor isn't built for amazing selfies, but replaces a mirror and unlocks the device with face detection. Capacity battery in 4200mAch (8-9 hours of active screen time), NFC contactless payments could become an additional reason to look at buying a vehicle, but there are serious gaps and an abundance of opponents still do not turn it into a potential bestseller.
