The idea of thin phones came back in full force in 2025. And even though the Galaxy S25 Edge might not be the blockbuster Samsung hoped for, the quest for thinner phones continues.Interestingly, this brings us to 2020, the end of the Galaxy Note series, and specifically, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Here's a fun fact that might surprise you: it's still the thinnest Ultra phone ever made.That's right. Even though Samsung's latest Galaxy S Ultra phones have become thinner over the past couple of years, the original Galaxy Note 20 Ultra still holds the crown.Even the Galaxy S25 Ultra hasn't beaten the Note 20 Ultra in this regard. But next year, the Galaxy S26 Ultra might. Here's some fun data concerning the thinness of the last seven Ultra phones and the upcoming model.Galaxy Note 20 Ultra: 8.1mm.Galaxy S20 Ultra: 8.8mm.Galaxy S21 Ultra: 8.9mm.Galaxy S22 Ultra: 8.9mm.Galaxy S23 Ultra: 8.9mm.Galaxy S24 Ultra: 8.6mm.Galaxy S25 Ultra: 8.2mm.Galaxy S26 Ultra (rumored): 7.9mm.Now, we have to keep in mind that even though all the S Ultra phones that followed the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra were thinner, they did have beefier 5,000mAh batteries. The Note 20 Ultra had a 4,500mAh unit.Even when the Galaxy S22 Ultra debuted with a design almost identical to the Note 20 Ultra, it was thicker and heavier, likely due to that bigger battery.There may be other reasons, build or hardware-related, that allowed the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra to maintain the crown all these years. And, to be honest, we probably wouldn't have even noticed this had Samsung not focused on thinness again this year.Either way, the first and last Note Ultra needs to be recognized. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra was ahead of its time and still is the thinnest Ultra ever made, even after all these years.Of course, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is no longer supported, and that's a shame. However, if you're still using the Note 20 Ultra in 2025, there is some irony to the fact that you are essentially using the thinnest Samsung Ultra phone ever made.The S26 Ultra might dethrone your Note 20 Ultra when it goes on sale next year, but in 2025, the Note has the crown.
