After the LTE and 5G-enabled Galaxy Note twenty Ultra passed through the FCC yesterday, it's now time for the international Galaxy Note 20 5G to practise the same. Carrying model number SM-N981B, the Galaxy Note 20 5G has been canonical by the Federal Communications Commission before today, July xvi, with just a few of weeks to get earlier Milky way Unpacked 2020.

The FCC documents reveal the phone'due south dimension to be clocking in at 161 ten 75.2mm, making it both taller and wider than terminal year's Milky way Note 10. The phone's thickness is unmentioned past the FCC, but according to previous leaks, the Galaxy Note xx (5G) should take an 8.5mm profile.

Although an LTE-only Milky way Notation 20 has yet to exist confirmed past the regulatory agency, it's logical to assume that the smaller model will follow the aforementioned strategy as the larger Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and be released with LTE connectivity in markets where a 5G device wouldn't make sense.

The international Galaxy Note 20 5G could exist powered past the Exynos 990 chipset despite before reports that Samsung might equip its next South Pen flagship with an upgraded Exynos 992 solution. Unfortunately, this hasn't been confirmed or denied by the FCC documents, so only fourth dimension will reveal Samsung's final decision. Either way, the chipset is probably going to be paired with 12GB of RAM, at least for the Galaxy Note xx 5G variant, whereas the LTE model could exist limited to 8GB.
