In roughly a month, Samsung will announce the Galaxy S20 series. According to a tweet by XDA Developers writer, Max Weinbach, we will be getting five Galaxy S20 phones. The five phones are the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20 5G, Galaxy S20+, Galaxy S20+ 5G, and the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G. Since all the phones that will be powered by the Snapdragon 865 will have a 5G modem, it is safe to say the non-5G versions of the Galaxy S20 are the ones powered by the Exynos 990 chipset.

Ahead of the release, Max has also posted live photos of the Galaxy S20+ 5G and they confirm what we already know about the design of Samsung’s upcoming flagship.

The biggest change is the display which no longer has a pill-shaped punch hole at the top left corner for dual front-facing cameras but a centered one for a single camera. Max says in a separate tweet that the display is not as curved as that of its predecessor, the Galaxy S10+. The reason for this is because Samsung is using 2.5D glass for the display.

The Galaxy S20+ also has fewer buttons as the Bixby button is now gone, hopefully for good.

Another of the live images show the phone’s rear with the now-familiar rectangular camera housing. There are four cameras – three vertically arranged on the left while the fourth is nestled between the LED flash and a microphone on the right.

Other than a difference in the processors, we don’t know if there will be any other significant differences between the Galaxy S20+ and the Galaxy S20+ 5G.

Max said he has more details about the phone including videos of the device. So keep your eyes peeled for more Samsung leaks this week.
