Samsung just unveiled its 10th-gen Galaxy Note lineup at the recently concluded Galaxy Unpacked launch event. As part of the new Galaxy Note 20 series, the company has launched two devices — the regular Galaxy Note 20 and the high-end Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. The latest Galaxy Note flagships from Samsung feature top-of-the-line hardware, including Qualcomm's flagship Snapdragon 865 Plus SoC or Samsung's Exynos 990 chip (depending on your region), up to 12GB of fast LPDDR5 RAM, and up to 512GB of high-speed UFS 3.x storage.

Much like previous devices in the Galaxy Note lineup, the new Galaxy Note 20 series offers two of the most feature-rich Android smartphones out there. Not only do the smartphones pack in some impressive hardware, but Samsung has also introduced a host of new software features with the devices. We've already taken a look at some of the new software features in our announcement post for the Galaxy Note 20 series, and here we'll be taking a look at their complete hardware specifications.
