Samsung successfully unwrapped the Galaxy S20 lineup through the Galaxy Unpacked 2020 event in San Francisco, U.S.. Interesting updates regarding the possible Indian launch of its flagship devices have started rolling in. For starters, the Indian variants of the Galaxy S20 lineup are powered by an inferior processor compared to the international model. Unlike the US variants that support 5G connectivity, S20 models for India will come with support for 4G VoLTE.
Samsung showcased the Galaxy S20, S20+, and the S20 Ultra at Galaxy Unpacked 2020 on Feb. 11 along with the Galaxy Z Flip and the Galaxy Buds+ truly wireless earbuds. The Galaxy S20 lineup sports the Snapdragon 865 chipset internationally. However, the Indian variants will be powered by the Exynos 990 SoC. According to notable gadget tipster Ishan Agarwal, Samsung might launch the Galaxy S20 lineup in India on March 8, alongside the Galaxy Z Flip.
He also revealed that the pre-booking of the Galaxy S20 series will be carried out between Feb. 14 and March 6 in India. While the S20 series and Z Flip are up for pre-registrations in India, there is no official word as of now. Hence, the audience is advised to take this information with a pinch of salt.
