The Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus scores only 66 points in the DxOMark Audio review. That is same as the Galaxy Note 10 Plus from last year. Hence, the handset acquires 11th place, which is way lower than its current competitors.
According to the DxOMark review, the Galaxy S20 Plus ‘doesn’t impress with its audio performance’ as a flagship smartphone. Though it is slightly better than its predecessor Galaxy S10 Plus, it is no match for the current-gen premium handsets from other OEMs.
The audio playback from the handset has a well-balanced mid-range and treble with a good rendering of the sound stage. Balance can be even noticed between the stereo channels but the audio from the device lacks bass at all volume levels. Also, the loud high-frequency response at maximum volume spoils the gaming experience.
On the other hand, the phone’s recording capability is better than its playback. The tonal range reproduction is excellent on the Galaxy S20 Plus with clear and intelligible voices. The sound dynamics are well-preserved with good directivity from the microphones. But it is inconsistent in the spatial rendering of sound sources and recording volume level is average at best.
Overall, the Galaxy S20 Plus audio performance in on par or slightly better than Samsung flagship smartphones from last year.
