Samsung<\/a> is preparing to unveil its next big smartphone successor for 2020, and ahead of the highly-anticipated reveal, we’ve rounded up the most credible rumours, details, and information you need to know about the Galaxy S20.<\/p>\n

Design<\/h3>\n

The next Galaxy device is said to be called the Galaxy S20 (as opposed to the sequentially-named Galaxy S11, as expected). According to credible smartphone news source\u00a0OnLeaks<\/a>, the overall design of the phone won’t change too much, but will feature a notable change on the camera layout, featuring a more symmetrical orientation than in early prototypes. As for screen-size, the S20 is said to house a 6.2-inch display, with the S20+ and S20 Ultra including 6.7 and 6.9-inch screens respectively.<\/p>\n

Features & Specs<\/h3>\n

Inside the S20 is rumoured to be the\u00a0Snapdragon 865 chipset, along with notably larger batteries (4,000 mAh on the S20, 4,500 mAh on the S20+, and 5,000 mAh on the S20 Ultra).<\/p>\n

RAM options will include a 12GB on the S20 and a 16GB variant on the S20 Ultra.<\/p>\n

As for the camera, Samsung is said to be including a 108-megapixel camera on the Ultra model, with\u00a0a 48-megapixel 10x optical zoom lens and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens for group and landscape shots to go along with it. The S20 and S20+ will have 12-megapixel cameras<\/p>\n

The S20 models will also feature a greater focus on biometrics, with a supersized Qualcomm 3D Sonic Max fingerprint sensor, supporting two fingerprints at the same time which will deliver a significant increase in security. This will be used for more important functions, like the completion of financial transactions or logging into a banking app.<\/p>\n

Release Date<\/h3>\n

Samsung has an Unpacked reveal event scheduled in for 11 February and will showcase the new device there. The S20 models will go on sale shortly after the event.<\/p>\n

Price<\/h3>\n

The Galaxy S20 series is likely to follow a similar pricing pattern as last year’s S10 range<\/a>, which means that the Galaxy S20 Ultra is expected to cost over $1,000 (around R14,500), with the standard S20 likely to be priced at around $900 (around R13,000).<\/p>\n
