Samsung Galaxy S20

The Samsung Galaxy S20, S20+ and S20 Ultra are the eleventh generation of Samsung s Galaxy smartphone mobile device and the follow-up to the Samsung Galaxy S10 line of smartphones. The Samsung Galaxy S20 smartphones were released for pre-sale on March 6, 2020, and they have been developed to compete largely with Apple’s iPhone 11 line of smartphones.

2020 Brings New Samsung Galaxy S20 Models

The Android-based Samsung Galaxy S20 phones were initially unveiled at Samsung s Galaxy Unpacked event on February 11, 2020. The three devices share many of the same features, including Qualcomm s Snapdragon 865 7nm processor, new 120Hz displays, 12GB of RAM, 128GB of base internal storage, 5G connectivity, the upgraded Android 10 (Android Q ) mobile operating system, expandable storage options, and more.
