The Galaxy S20 was only recently announced, but with all of Samsung's S-series secrets now out, it's time to think about the Samsung Galaxy Note 20, which could have a display that flips if far from overflowing on buttons. physical, according to a recently granted patent. The screen `` waterfall '' & # 39; It seems to go beyond what we've seen on previous Samsung Note phones, which have an Infinity Edge display, by tilting more than 90 degrees around the edge of the smartphone, reports PatentlyMobile. Normally, this wouldn't leave room for your typical power button, volume rocker, or this Bixby button. However, as the new patent demonstrates, these buttons would stick out of the screen, should the patent ever be used.

(Image credit: Patently Mobile) This design doesn't seem totally implausible given Samsung's practice of pushing selfie cameras through front-facing displays in punch-hole notches. The difference is that the cameras do not break the glass coating either. The buttons that extend across the edge of the glass and the screen would be a bit more elaborate, but that could be exactly what Samsung wants: a way for the Galaxy Note 20 to stand out from the ever-evolving Galaxy S range. This year's Galaxy S20 series is getting so big that it continues to question the necessity of the Galaxy Note's existence. Aside from the S-Pen, the Note has less to differentiate. Currently, the 20-inch screen of the Galaxy S6.9 Ultra is larger than the 10-inch screen of the Samsung Galaxy Note 6.8 Plus.
Note 20 with a built-in projector makes sense
Fancy buttons alone don't seem convincing enough to sell the Galaxy Note 20. Good news: The patent mentions other brilliant ideas. Among the new ideas, there is a grip sensor that would resemble the Pixel 4 and others. A hologram and a projector are also mentioned. As much as a hologram is a killer app, we'll go ahead and doubt it's happening on phones anytime soon. A projector may be more reasonable. Portable projectors are valuable in work environments, and the Galaxy Note family has a more professional vibe than its siblings. And it wouldn't be the first time we've seen a smartphone with a built-in projector. Giving a presentation on the Note 20's built-in projector could make sense, especially since the S-Pen could easily double as a clicker to change the cursor. The on-screen buttons feel like the tamer and most likely a move from Samsung, so let's keep a few grains of salt on this projector and a lot of salt on the holograms. Via: Tom's Hardware
