iPhone 12 can beat the Galaxy Note 20 — here's how

HomeNewsSmartphonesiPhone(Image credit: EverythingApplePro)Samsung's latest flagship phones have debuted to strong reviews, with the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra winning particular raves for its responsive S Pen, powerful zoom lens and its dynamic 120Hz display. It sets a pretty high bar for the other flagship phones coming out in the second half of 2020 — particularly for the new iPhone 12 lineup. So will the initial success of the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra cause any sleepless nights in Cupertino, as Apple executives wrestle with how to make the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro standout from rival devices? Not exactly, tech analysts say.iPhone 12 Pro vs. Galaxy Note 20: Which phone will be the year’s best?

''There is not as much cross-shopping as you might think.''Still, while the iPhone 12 should still do very well for itself, thank you very much, there's more than a little pride at stake. None of the major smartphone makers like to cede any amount of buzz about their new devices, even if they're confident that fans will flock to the new versions. And with the iPhone 12 expected to ship later than usual — Apple has indicated we won't see the new iPhone in September — there might be some pressure to make up for the Note 20's head start. But ultimately, the challenge facing Apple and the iPhone 12 is the same one that faces any device maker a dozen years after the original iPhone reinvented the smartphone market.

''Aside from new form factors like dual-screen or foldables, all updates are iterative.''These days, Apple may not be able to revolutionize phones the way it did more than a decade ago. But there are plenty of ways that the iPhone 12 can still stand out in a crowded market and maybe even push rivals like the Galaxy Note 20 off to the side.iPhone 12: The first 5G iPhoneLet's start with the obvious thing missing from the iPhone, and one of the features Apple is most likely to add. While other phone makers have been putting out 5G phones since 2019 — Samsung released the Galaxy S10 5G more than a year ago — Apple has sat on the sidelines. It's not like Apple has missed much: 5G networks are still being built out, and consumers have yet to reap the full benefits of faster network speeds and lower latency. Now that Apple's throwing its hat into the 5G ring, it's expected to do so in a big way. All four rumored iPhone 12 models are likely to feature 5G connectivity, so if you buy a new iPhone, you'll be able to connect to a 5G network. The Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G has been available since the spring.
