Compare Samsung Galaxy S20 deals and contracts

Android Authority | Robert Triggs

The Samsung Galaxy S20 doesn't have the absolute best camera, but it packs in everything else. Whether you're a power user or social media butterfly, this phone won't leave you wanting for anything. If you're on board with this year's redesign, the Samsung Galaxy S20 is one of the best smartphones you can buy right now.

What Hi-Fi?

Sometimes you just need to beat the competition, not blow them away, and the Galaxy S20 has certainly done that for now.

It has all the features you'd want in a flagship phone, plus a few more, without going overboard like the pricey S20 Ultra. The regular Galaxy S20 is the best Android flagship of 2020 so far.

What I find exciting is that there are some details where the S20 is superior to its successor...Samsung's warranty for security updates is extended by one year with the S21. If that does not bother you, you can safely buy the S20 as of today.

With the Galaxy S20, Samsung has played it safe – opting for refinements over innovation. However, these refinements were craved by many and culminate in a cracking experience – from the stunning display and manageable size to top-notch photography. Galaxy S20 rivals other flagships in almost every category, making it an easy recommendation for its consistency across the board.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 is still one of the best flagships you can get in 2020, hands down. It's the perfect paradigm of a smartphone; everything just works with little effort on your part.

AndroidPit | David McCourt

I can safely say that the smallest, cheapest smartphone in the line up is absolutely the one to buy. The extra camera stuff in the S20 Ultra is really not worth it, and I love the compact feel of the S20 in my hand.

The Galaxy S20 is the way to go, but only if you're looking for an uncompromising Android phone.

Trusted Reviews | Max Parker

For most people, the Samsung Galaxy S20 is the best Android phone available right now. This will likely be the biggest selling flagship Android device of the year, with a lot of happy customers.

TechRadar | James Peckham

The Samsung Galaxy S20 isn't the most cutting-edge of Samsung's S20 lineup – that honor goes to the Galaxy S20 Ultra – but it's still a powerful phone with an ergonomic and attractive design, and the introduction of new features like 5G, the 120Hz display and upgraded rear cameras make it an outstanding handset in its own right.

Mobile Syrup | Jonathan Lamont

The S20 is excellent, but I believe it's peak smartphone. It's so good that the bigger, arguably better S20+ and Ultra fail to justify themselves.

NotebookCheck | Florian Schmitt

Samsung Galaxy S20 remains a very good high-end smartphone with a slim and narrow case that people with small hands will very much appreciate. It also offers a modern and almost conservative design as well as a low weight.

CNET | Jessica Dolcourt

I genuinely enjoy using the Galaxy S20 and its camera. But it's not the slam dunk for me I was hoping for. If you need a new Android phone now, the S20 is my pick.

Engadget | Cherlynn Low

Few Android flagships look as good as the Galaxy S20, and fewer even sport features this advanced. Samsung's latest sports a smooth 120Hz screen, versatile triple-camera setup and 5G support (depending on your carrier), making it one of the best Android phones on the market.

The Verge | Dieter Bohn

There will be other Android phones that meet or exceed the Galaxy S20 on any number of metrics or specs, of course. But I'm confident predicting that few - perhaps none - will match the overall experience. The Galaxy S is the default Android phone for a reason.

T3 | Matt Evans

With almost all the main features of the S20 Ultra bar its huge camera and battery, the Samsung Galaxy S20 is arguably better value for money, with a gorgeous ultra-premium display, intuitive UI and still-impressive photographic capabilities. Perhaps the best Android phone on the market for casual users.

Gizmodo UK | Caitlin McGarry

This is the cheapest of Samsung's 2020 flagships so far, and it has the same camera setup as the pricier S20+.

Android Central | Harish Jonnalagadda

With an incredible 120Hz display, the latest internal hardware, faultless cameras, and all-day battery life, the Galaxy S20 raises the bar for flagships. It is one of the very few phones you can still use one-handed, and if you want a compact phone that doesn't miss out on any of the extras, the Galaxy S20 is the default option in 2020.

Tom's Guide | Mark Spoonauer

Overall, our top pick among Samsung's new Android phones is the Galaxy S20 Plus, because it offers a larger display and longer endurance ... if you prefer a smaller device, you should be very pleased with the regular Galaxy S20.

Pocket-lint | Cam Bunton

With the Ultra model not quite doing enough to earn its name or price tag, the S20 is everything you'd hope for in the premium flagship. It's an easy recommendation, one that's genuinely great to use day-to-day.

Expert Reviews | Nathan Spendelow

It's a good thing that the Galaxy S20 is one of Samsung's most fully-featured flagship launches, then. It may be the cheapest of Samsung's newborn trio, but it offers much the same experience as the S20 Ultra.

Digital Trends | Andy Boxall

The Galaxy S20 is an excellent smartphone, but it doesn't differentiate itself enough from the larger, more immersive-to-use Galaxy S20 Plus, isn't cheap enough to be tempting as a budget buy, and isn't small enough to be a truly compact flagship.
