The Samsung Galaxy S20 has finally arrived. The new smartphones from Samsung want to enter strongly in a market that has fallen in recent years.
So, Samsung gave us 3 new models. All of them with quality but one of them (Ultra) with impressive characteristics. It remains for us to know if this is enough to convince users.
The most important points of the new Samsung Galaxy S20
- Best cameras
- Considerable autonomy improvement
- Design line is no exception to the rule
- Change in the “screen hole” for the front camera has moved to the center
- Impressive 16GB of RAM in the Ultra model
Samsung Galaxy S20 specifications
This is the most modest model of the new Galaxy S20. The “normal” Samsung Galaxy S20 arrives with a design ideology identical to all others but with some lack of features. Namely the super camera of the “Ultra” model. However, it remains one of the best options of the 3 for the quality / price ratio.

Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra specifications

- 6.9 “QHD + screen

An evolution not a revolution
As expected, the Samsung Galaxy S20 and all its models are not a major revolution. Samsung followed the market. Especially when it comes to photography. The 108MP camera on the Samsung Galaxy Ultra has the ability to do a 100X hybrid zoom. As much as the image is not perfect when the zoom is at maximum, it is necessary to give value to the evolution of Samsung.
In terms of specifications, once again, the Ultra model surprises with an incredible 16GB of RAM. Still, it is worth stressing that it is questionable to what extent you will one day need so much RAM in a mobile phone.
In other words, Samsung has considerably improved its User Interface and the brand has already shown with previous equipment that a top of the range product does not need as much RAM to have an above average quality for a good years.
Autonomy is increasingly important for Samsung
It should also be noted that the size of the batteries has increased considerably. This without increasing the screen too much. In other words, Samsung wants to give users more autonomy than ever.
The screen is the feature that consumes more battery and the remaining components are made and implemented in order to enhance it. Therefore, it is believed that whoever has a Samsung Galaxy S20 in their pocket (the model with the smallest battery size) will live without a problem one day without thinking about the charger.
Price and availability of the Samsung Galaxy S20 and variants
The arrival of the new Samsung Galaxy S20 is scheduled for March 23. Pre-sales of the new Galaxy start today and are available until March 8. When purchasing a Galaxy S20 + or Ultra, you are entitled to Galaxy Buds +.
With regard to prices, the new equipment does not have a value for all portfolios. However, it is worth mentioning that mobile phones are top of the range and follow the prices practiced in recent years.
- Samsung Galaxy S20 (128GB) – € 929
- Samsung Galaxy S20 + (128GB) – € 1029
- Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra (128GB) – € 1379
- Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra (512GB) – € 1579
There is still no confirmation of values for all models with 512GB. Therefore, we cannot guarantee, for now, whether these models will reach our market. For now, this is what you need to know.
