Description
This is the phone that will change photography.
Meet Galaxy S20, S20+ and S20 Ultra. With revolutionary 8K Video Snap changing how you capture not just video but photography — and 5G changing the way you share it. Add in Samsung Knox security, an intelligent battery, powerful processor and massive storage — and the Galaxy S20 series unveils a whole new world for mobile.
Pro-grade camera
With an Ultra Wide Camera and up to 100x Space Zoom on the S20 ultra, the perfect snap is closer than ever.
Hollywood-ready movies
Shoot videos in 8K resolution at a huge 24FPS. And with Single Take, turn them in to 33MP stills in an instant.
Future-ready 5G
Be ready for the future with the S20's 5G variants. Stream without lag and download with ease.
Long lasting battery
Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G packs in our biggest battery yet. It's your own personal power station.
HIGH RESOLUTION
108MP lets you pinch in. Again. And again.
Far beyond the 12 megapixel category, Galaxy S20 Ultra gives you millions more pixels in each photograph. Which means for the first time ever you can pinch in for details you'd never have seen before.
SPACE ZOOM
Zoom in 100x to find shots you never knew existed
It starts with 10x Hybrid Optic Zoom enabled by a revolutionary folded lens and high resolution image sensor. Couple that with Super Resolution Zoom enhanced by camera AI to get close up to the action and capture moments you might have missed.
BRIGHT NIGHT
We've upped the sensor size so you can shoot more of the night
In low light, the pro-grade camera system captures multiple photos at once, merging them into one stunning shot with less blur and noise. With larger image sensors and AI, switching to Night mode means you can shoot nighttime scenes like daylight.
8K VIDEO
Now the highest-resolution video on a smartphone
We've taken mobile resolution from 4K all the way to 8K. That's 4 times bigger than UHD and 16 times bigger than FHD. That means you'll capture moments in super-sharp resolution.
8K VIDEO SNAP
You can even pull 33MP stills right out of 8K video
It's a whole new way to capture still photography every time you hit record. 8K video turns every frame into a high-resolution still that you can pinch in on for once-in-a-lifetime shots.
FUTURE-READY 5G
Download a whole season of your favorite show in a flash
With a 5G modem baked in, Galaxy S20, S20+ and S20 Ultra let you download in an instant and enjoy your favourite Netflix films and shows without lag. With 5G, even you can upload and share at high speeds.
ALL DAY BATTERY
Power on and on and on…
Our batteries are powerful, maxing out at 5000mAh (typical). But they're also intelligent, adjusting to your mobile habits to save power and last way longer on a single charge.
