Samsung Electronics Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G Factory Unlocked Android Cell Phone | US Version | 128GB of Storage | Mobile Gaming Smartphone | Mystic Bronze, SM-N986UZNAXAA (Renewed)

So far this phone is working perfectly, knock on wood, I was previously using a Motorola 5G stylus that was not even a year old and that phone was a giant waste of money and it even bigger piece of crap. This phone blows it out of the water! With my previous phone, you could not even multitask something as simple as sending a text message while watching a YouTube video! This one I have absolutely no problem doing both things. It's quick and responsive, actually has a large capacity of storage on the phone- my previous phone claimed to have large storage but actually sent an SD card which made it even slower. This phone is phenomenal if you are somebody that likes to multitask with different applications, the cameras are amazing and the filters work beautifully. The Stylist is also very responsive and accurate. Overall it is a far superior phone and I will never get anything other than a Samsung phone again! Should also mention that it was very simple to set up and transfer my data from my old phone to my new phone, depending on how much you have it may take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour- I had a lot of photos and videos save that I wanted to transfer, but you can also opt out of that as well which is nice. Fingerprint reader works well, I would recommend if you are getting a screen protector to make sure that it has a special spot for the fingerprint sensor as that may make it more difficult for you to get into your phone. Video quality is beautiful and the sound quality is crystal clear. I also am a big fan of the Google voice type that you can equip on this phone, it's very accurate and rarely misspelled what I'm saying. Phone calls also come in very clear and I've had no issues with calls being dropped. Should also note that the keyboard comes up instantly, that was not the case with my previous phone LOL. The price of this phone is extremely Fair, even though it's a older phone by today's standards it operates beautifully and has so far been able to accomplish everything that I need it to. One last thing I should mention, I am a avid gamer and playing games on this phone has been an absolute Joy. I'm even able to hook up my Bluetooth controller or my Razer kishy controller to play games on this!

I ordered over the past year 3 Phones from this exact same listing (same Color Bronze). The Problem is, that they are sold by independant refurbisher they all claim to be "SM-N986U1" = Factory unlocked Phones US Market.The first one I ordered in June2023 for my Cousin that was travelling and her Note9 broke down. The Phone was sold by "ELECTRONIC DEALS" . Wonderful Phone all is working great. As it was such a wonderful experience I thought I order one for myseld as a Backup in case my original European Note 20 Ultra would break down one day... This came 2 weeks later sold by "WirelessGlobe" again absoluetly amazing Condition and all worked.But when I ordered one this December 2023 again, the phone was sold by "HUMAN TECH". Again looked in perfect excellent condition. BUT I was unable to add an eSIM, regular SIM was no problem (So there was no SIM Lock!). As it turns out after contacting Samsung US - Support and them asking for the IMEI number, the Phone was actually built as a AT&T variant (SM-N986U and not U1) and was SIM-Locked once but now unlocked. Unfortuantely deep down in the system somehow eSIM was still locked and there is nothing that they can do about that, although the Phone About Screen has clearly mentioned the SM-N986U1, it was unusable with a eSim.So be careful when you even get a beatiful phone, and today you don't need eSIM maybe in the future you are travelling and then you find out you can't add eSIM... so test within the Return Window from Amazon if eSIM is working!!! In my case whn scanning QR Code of E-Sim it would just loop back to intital screen in SIM Manger. After upgrading to last Firmware, when clicking add eSIM I would only get the 4 Dots circling forever and nothing would happen. So beware of Sellers probably masking a SM-N986U unlocked AT&T Version as a Factory unlocked U1... Unfortunately NOT THE SAME!!!Attched picture1 shows in the older firmware the Scan eSIM is coming up, but will loop back to attached picture 2. After Firmware Upgrade it loops from the beginning. And in case you're asking if manually add the String, same thing loops back to picture 2.
