Samsung Galaxy S20 price: How much will Samsung's new phone cost?
There have been so many leaks around the Samsung Galaxy S20 series and we now know what sort of price we'll be asked to pay for Samsung's new phones.
In summary, these are the expected Samsung Galaxy S20 prices:
- Galaxy S20 4G - £799/€899,
- Galaxy S20 5G - £874/€999
- Galaxy S20+ 4G - £999
- Galaxy S20+ 5G - £1047/€1099
- Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G - 128GB £1149/€1349, 512GB €1549
Where are these Galaxy S20 prices from?
Having already suggested what the Euro prices might be, Max Weinbach - a source of many a Galaxy S20 leak - has updated us with what he's heard about UK pricing, featuring five different S20 models. This is pretty spot on with what we've heard from elsewhere.
The list features the 4G and 5G versions of the regular S20, both 4G and 5G S20+ models and the high-end S20 Ultra 5G.
I got more UK prices, likely more accurate than earlier:
— Max Weinbach (@MaxWinebach) February 2, 2020
S20 4G: £799
S20 5G: £874
S20+ 4G: £999
S20+ 5G: £1074
S20 Ultra 5G: £1149
These seem most accurate, but once again, they can always change. This source has proved a bit more accurate than others.
If the list is an accurate representation of pricing plans, it'll see the various S20 model starting prices range between £799 and £1,149.
The £799 (€900, $1,000) is for the 4G version of the Galaxy S20. That's the smallest of the phones on offer, with the other versions increasing in price incrementally.There are 4G and 5G versions of both of the S20 and S20+.
The flagship Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G is said to cost £1,149 (€1,360, $1,500), a hefty price by any measure.
The prices themselves are a little different to the EU pricing prediction Weinbach published earlier, which only included the 5G models of the S20 series, as well as a prediction on the Galaxy Z Flip. In that list, the Euro price for the 5G S20 was given as €900-€1000, with the S20 Ultra 5G at €1300.
Are these Galaxy S20 prices accurate?
There's a couple of things to take into account here. Firstly, there's generally always a premium for a 5G phone, which is about €100 in Europe - as Weinbach himself says in a subsequent tweet. In the UK - if the list is accurate - that premium is around £75.
So if you're looking for a 4G handset because you're not ready to dive into the next-gen, then you're looking at more affordable devices, perhaps from €800 in the Euro zone ($890), or £799 in the UK.
Secondly, prices will be subject to change right up until the point they go on sale and there will always be deals and offers. With many buying on contract, there are lots of factors that go into the actual price of a phone. Samsung always launches phones at a high price and progressively drops those prices through the course of the year.
All we can really say at this point is that you should take these prices as a guideline - things are likely to change a lot over the next month.
