[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] optimummind:
The ZeroLemon S20+ battery case is not for everyone. In order to fit 8,000 mAh of extra reserve battery power into a phone case, one has to accept the many compromises, such as the extra thickness, extra weight, more difficulty operating the phone with just one hand, and finding a more suitable place to carry the phone with you when going out. For longtime users of battery cases, none of these are dealbreakers. It's just something you expect and accept for being able to extend the battery life of your phone by days.

In my case, I've been using ZeroLemon battery cases for such a long time (Note 10, S10+, S9+, S8+, S7), I'm cool with all the compromises. Besides, I don't use the case all the time, every day. I only need it for those occasions when I'm going to somewhere where I know I'll be taking lots of pictures and videos, such as amusement parks and fairs. I also use it when I'm playing emulation games on the phone with a Bluetooth gamepad paired up.

As has been the case for a couple of years now, I'm happy to report that ZeroLemon continues to refine and improve the design and build quality of their battery cases year after year. The S20+ battery case is composed of two types of materials - a high density matte-black TPU component that makes up the top, bottom, sides, and camera lens portion of the case, and a smooth, grippy, matte-black portion that wraps around the battery on the back of the case. Both material types feel good in the hands, and any smudges or oils left on top can easily be wiped away.

All the buttons and holes lined up perfectly, and there was no decrease in speaker quality. Button presses do require extra effort, with the power button requiring more pressure compared to the volume up and volume down buttons. As a result, it took me a while to get used to taking screenshots on the phone. The battery case button on the back of the case is very clickity and responsive. A single click will activate the battery, and a 3-second hold will turn it off. Can't get simpler than that.

To my pleasant surprise, wireless charging worked just fine through the thick case. The phone doesn't get Fast Charged but it's definitely better than having to take out the phone from the case first.

When charging the phone normally from the battery case, it also operates in a non-Fast Charge way. Having Qualcomm Fast Charge would've been nice but since this isn't a powerbank that I want to disconnect from as soon as possible, it's not a big deal to me.

Having a glass screen protector is a MUST for me, and I'm very happy to report that the case is 95% compatible with my Whitestone Dome Glass. As you can see from my pictures, the case doesn't make contact with the glass on the top and the sides, causing no lifting. The bottom of the case, however, does make slight contact. Fortunately, that hasn't resulted in air bubbles forming but it did introduce a squiggly line on the bottom-right corner of my screen protector. That has been slightly annoying but on the positive side, I can't see the line when the screen is turned on and lit up. When I take the phone out of the case, the squiggly line disappeared.

All in all, I'm quite happy with the ZL S20+ battery case. It might be unabashedly thick and bulky, but it provides a peace of mind that I can get through hours of gameplay or heavy use of the camera without getting all antsy and nervous. Being able to do wireless charging is awesome, and I'm happy that there is no compromise to the speaker quality this time around. For their future battery cases, I wish ZeroLemon would make the bottom lip of the case a bit thinner in order to avoid contacting a glass screen protector. 9.5 out of 10.
