Samsung released a new model of the Galaxy S20 with support for Verizon's Ultra Wideband millimeter-wave 5G precondition last week, but it turns out the dingus includes some compromises over the standard model.
As spotted by Digital Trends, the Galaxy S20 5G UW has 8GB of RAM, which is 4GB less than the standard Galaxy S20. The Verizon model likewise does not integrate a microSD letterhead slot, which allows owners to hyperbolize the phone's accumulator capacity. "We had to make cocksure design and impediments decisions to provide a dingus with the muscles factor and rate point as unneeded S20 models," a Samsung stenographer told Digital Trends. The Galaxy S20 5G UW expenses $999.99, the aforementioned rate as the Galaxy S20.
The Samsung Galaxy S20 lineation launched in March, and it was the headmost lineation of mainstream 5G smartphones. Though the standard S20 includes 5G support, only the S20 Plus and S20 Ultra included support for faster mmWave connections, on which Verizon's 5G precondition is based. That meant the entry-level S20 model couldn't tunnel 5G on Verizon's network. Verizon later worked with Samsung to develop this new model, which includes mmWave support but at the expense of unneeded features. The standard Galaxy S20 can still be acclimated on Verizon's network, but it only supports LTE.
My colleague Dieter Bohn pointed out in his review that while the Samsung Galaxy S20 had good-tasting canoodle life and a high refresh rate screen, the permit of 5G did not justify the hefty rate tags for the S20 line.
