SHAPING THE FUTURE OF COMMUNICATION
The Galaxy S20 series is engineered to harness the new generation of mobile connectivity. In a first for the Galaxy, every device in the Galaxy S20 series—the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+ and Galaxy S20 Ultra—comes equipped with the latest 5G technology.
CHANGING HOW WE CAPTURE
The Galaxy S20 introduces an entirely new camera system—powered by AI and with Samsung’s biggest image sensor yet—to bring out the best in every image and every moment.
Details in Stunning Clarity: With a larger image sensor available on the Galaxy S20 series, camera resolution is significantly increased, for more detailed images. S20 and S20+ have a 64MP camera. S20 Ultra has 108MP camera. The S20 Ultra takes things a step further with the ability to shift dynamically between a high resolution 108MP mode and a 12MP mode, thanks to Nona Binning technology which combines 9 pixels into one at the sensor level.
Groundbreaking Zoom Capability: With the Galaxy S20’s Space Zoom technology, even when you are far away, you can zoom in close. Use up to 30x zoom on the S20 and S20+ with Space Zoom, or step- up to the S20 Ultra’s revolutionary folded lens with 10x lossless zoom for 100X Space Zoom.
Single Take, Multiple Possibilities: Single Take lets you stay in the moment while you capture the moment. The Galaxy S20 can capture a number of photo and videos, such as live focus, cropped, ultra wide and more, and use AI to recommend the best shots.
Pro-Grade Filming Capability: The Galaxy S20 offers stunning 8K video shooting, so users can capture their world in true-to-life color and quality. Even the bumpiest videos look like they were shot using a gimbal, thanks to Super Steady and its anti-rolling stabilization and AI motion analysis.
