Samsung Galaxy S20, S20+, S20 Ultra - Samsung 2020

It's that time of the year, Samsung announced their flagship smartphones for 2020. And yes it's S20 (not S11). Basically, two phones were released at this huge event. Namely, S20 and Z Flip. In this post we will only talk about S20. Article related to Z-Flip will be posted soon.

    S20(Base Model), S20 S20+, and finally S20 Ultra. S20 and S20+ are succesors to S10 and S10+. S20 Ultra is thier new device for the pros and Ultra-Rich people.

    They all come with new Snapdragon 865 series (most variants), LTE variants of S20 and S20+ come with 8GB of RAM and 5G variants come with whopping 12GB of RAM, as we know Android needs alot of RAM, because it cannot manage RAM that well. So, RAM is enough. And S20 Ultra also comes with 12GB RAM with 128GB and 256GB storage, and humongous 16GB RAM with 512GB storage.

    Samsung also made some noticable changes in design department this year. For starters, you now have camera rectangles adopting the trend made by Apple. Screens are now flatter. Thankfully, the Bixby button is now gone (hopefully, for good). And headphone jack is now gone, which means Apple was right.

    In camera department, now you have Triple camera setup on back of S20 base model, with additional Depth sensors on rest. There configurations are:
  • S20          : 12MP Ultra-Wide, 12MP Wide-Angle, and 64MP Telephoto.
  • S20+        : 12MP Ultra-Wide, 12MP Wide-Angle, 64MP Telephoto and additional depth sensors.
  • S20 Ultra : 12MP Ultra-Wide, 108MP Wide-Angle, 48MP Telephoto and additional depth sensors.
This congfiguration along with some software tweaking allows S20 Ultra to do 100x zoom, and 8K video recording at 24fps (also thanks to the new and improved processor).

    You can look at full specs on the official Samsung Website.

    Let's talk about prices now:
  • S20 starts at 999.99 USD.
  • S20+ starts at 1199.99 USD
  • S20 Ultra starts at 1399.99 USD
    It is very brave of Samsung to make such bold moves and changes (such as getting rid of headphone-jack). I hope you found this post to be informative, if you did make sure to share it with others and feel free to comment.

Everything Apple makes is made with intention that it blends with other products seamlessly, a person using an iPhone most probably uses iMessage and Facetime, which will work the same on his Mac or iPad, Or maybe he wants to transfer a photo or video from his iPad to Mac or vice versa, he can do it simply use AirDrop which works without giving you a headache. These devices working together create an ecosystem in which user can work freely between devices.

We'll try to cover both mindsets in this blogpost. Imag...
