Pricing for Samsung's Galaxy S20 series leaked over this past weekend, and we told you about it yesterday. Long story short, it's pretty shocking. According to a source that has had reliable info in the past, the new S20 series will start at $999 for the Galaxy S20 with 5G and it'll top out at $1,399 for the Galaxy S20 Ultra. That's an awful lot of cash to spend even on a flagship phablet, though it's still less than the $1,449 that Apple charges for a maxed-out iPhone 11 Pro Max. The more troubling news would be that $999 entry price for the Galaxy S20, however. T-Mobile will reportedly only offer Samsung's Galaxy S20 versions with 5G, so the model without 5G support will be less expensive. That said, an earlier rumor suggested that 4G-only versions of the Galaxy S20 and Galaxy S20+ will only be $100 less than their 5G counterparts. If that's accurate, we could be looking at an $899 price point for Samsung's cheapest Galaxy S20 phone. As a reminder, this is the entry-level model that replaces the Galaxy S10e, and it's going to go toe-to-toe with Apple's $699 iPhone 11, which is likely the single best-selling smartphone out there right now. Ouch.
Samsung's earnings have been in steady decline for quite some time now, and reports said that last year's Galaxy S10e was Samsung's most popular S10 model because it was so much more affordable than the others. Pricing its successor at $899 to start would almost certainly be devastating for sales, so we can only hope that some wires got crossed somewhere and it'll be much more affordable than that when Samsung launches the new Galaxy S20 series next week. But today, we're going to focus on a different S20 phone, the high-end Galaxy S20 Ultra. Every indication so far is that it'll be worth its sky-high price tag, and now a new video shows off a stunning flagship smartphone that looks like it might just be an iPhone 11 Pro Max killer.
