Samsung just launched the Galaxy Note 20 series, Galaxy Tab S7 series, Galaxy Watch 3, and Galaxy Buds Live at Galaxy Unpacked event earlier this week. The company even teased Galaxy Z Fold 2, which is expected to launch sometime later in October.

Alongside the novel sized smartphones and slim notebooks, Samsung slipped in a new 16-inch model: the Galaxy Note 20. It is a 21.5-inch display, guarded by Dragon Shade. Silver Transparent tempered glass, with their color reflecting at 80 percent of visible light. SIM slots for 3G, 4G connectivity, chin stylus and metal connection hinge.

Actual bending stress test with the device provided more proof that the device is an aero-smart.
