Finally, Samsung has announced its S series flagships for 2020 – Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus, Galaxy S20, and Galaxy S20 Ultra at its Galaxy Unpacked event in San Francisco after plenty of leaks.

The specifications of these devices will be similar to the Samsung S20 Ultra version, but will only have 8GB of RAM for the LTE version. The design of the device has been familiar in recent times thanks to the launch of the new Galaxy A series (2020), featuring a selfie camera in the center of the small screen size. The camera cluster of the device still includes a wide-angle (standard) 12MP, 12MP super wide-angle lens, and telephoto camera upgraded the resolution to 64MP to support 3X zoom capabilities.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 has a 6.2-inch Infinity-O screen with a hole-in-the-middle camera similar to the Galaxy Note10. The size of this front camera is also shrunk like some 2020 Galaxy A series of devices that Samsung has launched. With such a camera design, Samsung can easily collapse the edge of the device, giving a more over-the-edge display while holding it still very compact. The screen size of the 6.2-inch is larger than last year’s S10 to bring a larger battery capacity.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus has the same design language with a larger screen size of 6.7-inches, also possesses a two-sided design with curved edges simultaneously. All the physical buttons on the Samsung S20 phone are placed on the right side, the other side has been completely blank. So this product line does not have the presence of a separate physical Bixby key.

At the bottom of the device, Samsung also removed the 3.5mm audio jack that used to exist on the Galaxy S10. So at the bottom with USB-C port only, the speaker holes as well as the microphone.

Cameras on the new Samsung Galaxy S 2020 series are basically the same. The wide-angle (standard) camera of the device has a resolution of 12MP, along with 120 degrees ultra-wide-angle camera has also been upgraded to a resolution of 12MP compared to last year. Notably, the telephoto camera has a resolution of up to 64MP.

On the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus, there is an additional ToF camera to support the ability to capture depth analysis images with different effects. Therefore, the rear camera of the Galaxy S 20 Plus has a larger width than the S20. Photos of Galaxy S20 when placed side by side. Galaxy S20+ (on the right) when compared to the Galaxy S10+, the S10+ sub-camera cluster has been dropped to only one camera in the middle of the S20+.
