South Korean giant Samsung launched its flagship Galaxy S-series smartphones — Galaxy S20, S20 Plus, and S20 Ultra last month and the devices went on sale earlier this month. And now, just weeks after this, details about Samsung’s next major smartphone have started surfacing online.

According to the new leaks, the next-generation Galaxy Note series smartphone — Samsung Galaxy Note 20 will be much similar to the Galaxy S20 series in terms of design. it seems that the only difference is the squared-corners and support for S-Pen.

Also, the similarities aren’t limited to just designs. Both the tipsters Ice Universe and Max Weinbach claims that the Galaxy Note 20’s hardware specifications will “not be significantly changed compared to the S20 series” and the cameras will also be the same.

It seems that Samsung went all-in with the Galaxy S20 Ultra and has nothing much left to offer with the Galaxy Note 20 in terms of innovation. However, we do expect the company to offer something innovative, along with improved S-Pen.

As per the previous reports, the Samsung could launched three Galaxy Note models this year — Galaxy Note 20, Galaxy Note 20+ and the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Apart from Europe, all units will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset while in Europe, they will be packed with the company’s own Exynos 990 SoC.

The Super AMOLED display on the upcoming flagship series should have 120Hz refresh rate. As for the memory configuration, we expect it have up to 16GB RAM and 512GB of internal storage. The top-end model in the lineup could come with 5,000mAh battery.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 series is expected to launch by the end of July but the timeline could be impacted because of the disruption caused by coronavirus outbreak. As far as the pricing goes, it will obviously be the most expensive iteration in the Note series and given the cost of S20 Ultra, we expect the Note 20 to cost around $1,400.
