Samsung Unpacked 2020: Galaxy S20 series, Galaxy Z Flip, everything else you can expect

Samsung is all set to host its annual Unpacked event on 12 February in San Francisco, where the company is expected to unveil several of its latest products in a biannual event. The event will start at 12.30 am IST tonight (30 minutes into 12 February). You can catch the live update on the company’s official website and its social media handles. Among the products, Samsung is expected to launch are the Galaxy S20 series, the Galaxy Z Flip and the Galaxy Buds Plus. It’s very possible that the company might also make a couple of “surprise announcements.” Our guess? That they might finally release the highly-awaited Bixby smart speakers, or another smartwatch. To top all this,  Andriod, too, has hinted at making an announcement about “something exciting” at the event.

The main module is expected to have a 108 MP primary camera, 12 MP ultra-wide camera and a Time of Flight (ToF) sensor. Below this module, another highlight of the camera system is the 48 MP telephoto ‘Periscope’ camera that is reportedly capable of 10x optical zoom and up to a ridiculous 100x digital zoom. The **previous render** also shows that the ‘100x’ label will be placed beside the camera along with its marketing name which hasn’t been revealed yet. According to a  tech analyst Jon Prosser, Galaxy S20 will be priced at $999, Galaxy S20 Plus will be priced at $1,199 and Galaxy S20 Ultra will cost you $1,399. It is also speculated that the smartphones will come with 5G support.

Galaxy Z Flip

A  tipster, Ben Geskin,  has recently shared a hands-on video of the rumoured Galaxy Z Flip. When unfolded, the display might sport a punch hole at the top that houses the front camera. A tiny secondary display is also expected at the top when folded. This secondary display might show time, battery percentage and date. Galaxy Z Flip might also feature a dual rear camera placed alongside the secondary tiny display. The smartphone might come in a purple colour back with mirror finish.

Further, the phone’s display will reportedly have Full HD+ resolution with HDR+ support. The external display will measure 1.06 inches and will apparently have a resolution of 300 x 116 pixels.
