Do you want to get the most out of the 5G connection of your Galaxy S20?If you have a compatible SIM, and there is coverage in your city, you can use these 5 apps to take advantage of this connection. Among them, to download streaming content, or mobile data control so you don't run out of megabytes.
Only the Samsung Galaxy s20 Ultra is compatible with 5G networks In addition, Vodafone is currently the only operator that offers this coverage, and only in certain cities.You can check Vodafone's 5G coverage here. Fortunately, all its rates, both contract and prepaid, are compatible with 5G networks.
Data control app
One of the drawbacks of using 5G networks on your mobile is that, unlike 4G, the consumption of contracted MB runs out much fasterTherefore, if we want to download a series, it will take less time than with 4G, but it will cost more gigabytes, and if you do not have a limited data rate (Vodafone has 3 options), you may be interested in having an application to control consumption. One of the best we can find on Google Play is My Data Manager.
This app allows us to keep full control of the use of data in the main applications.So that we can know which apps consume the most megabytes and how we can limit that use In the configuration we can set our data limit, what kind of plan we have and when it starts each month. In this way, the application will be able to calculate when your rate is renewed and provide more accurate information. We can also configure alarms with a data limit. Thus, when we exceed that marked limit, the device will alert us.

Speed Test
If it is your first mobile with 5G, it is very likely that you want to know how fast that connection can reach. For this, it is best to use a speed test app, which is usually more accurate than the tests that are in the browser.The app that I recommend is Speedtest.net. It is quite complete and offers very good results. Its use is very simple: we just have to press the 'start' button and wait for the application to do the speed test When the test ends it will show us the download and upload speed , as well as PING or lost connection. We can also see a history of the results, as well as a coverage map of our operator.

Netflix
Netflix can be one of the best apps to take advantage of 5G. The streaming movie and series app allows us to download content to watch offline, and with 5G networks that episode or movie can be downloaded in just over a minute.Therefore, if you are about to take a flight and you have forgotten to download the series at home, with 5G you can download it quickly Of course, remember that data consumption is somewhat higher.

Fortnite, one of the best games to take advantage of 5G.
Fortnite is one of the best games we can find on Android, and on the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra it is one of the best options to take advantage of 5G. Mainly because the game can be downloaded quickly from the Samsung app store. In addition, the device allows you to run the game at 60 Fps, which is scaled thanks to its 120 Hz screen. With a 5G connection we will not have any type of cut or lag and the games will load quickly. No loitering and very good latency Also, if you are going to start the game and need to download some kind of patch, this can be installed quickly.

VPN App
For more technical users with a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G, another way to take advantage of the networks of this device is through an app that allows us to use VPN networks. One of the benefits of the VPN connection is being able to access different content that is not available in our region or that is blocked for any other reason. For example, enjoy that offer that is in Germany, but not in Spain. Or be able to subscribe to Disney Plus from the United States. In addition to creating more secure private connections, among other uses.One of the best apps that we can find on Google Play is Secure VPN. It is free and has a very simple interface. It works with all types of networks and with a large catalog of countries. In addition, the interface is very simple and we can connect or disconnect quickly. It has more than 400 thousand reviews on Google Play and with a score of 4.6 out of 5.
