Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S20 series to much accolade last month, raising the bar in the Android space. More cameras, larger batteries, new button layout and port openings, larger camera lens, and so on. Another thing that's definitely in no short supply is the physical footprint of each device, with the pinnacle being the enormous Galaxy S20 Ultra. How do they fare up against their predecessors.
Screen size and dimensions
The Galaxy S20 Ultra has a monstrous 6.9-inch display, whereas the Galaxy S20 Plus uses a slightly smaller 6.7-inch display. Finally, the most compact among the bunch is the Galaxy S20 with its 6.2" bezel-busting display. With displays like these, Samsung is essentially trumping its 2019 flagship crop in terms of overall sizes, but it's hard to visualize the differences by just reading them. That's why will fall upon our handy size comparison tool which will reveal all and help you visualize the differences.
Galaxy S20 Ultra physical dimensions
The largest Galaxy ever comes with dimensions of 166.9 x 76 x 10.2mm and tips the scales at 7.83oz (222gr).
Galaxy S20 Plus physical dimensions
The Galaxy S20 Plus has dimensions of 6.37 x 2.90 x 0.31 inches (161.9 x 73.7 x 7.8 mm) and weighs 6.56 oz (188gr).
Galaxy S20 physical dimensions
The Galaxy S20 has dimensions of 5.97 x 2.72 x 0.31 inches (151.7 x 69.1 x 7.9 mm) and weighs 5.78 oz (163 gr).
Galaxy S20 vs Galaxy S10
Galaxy S20 vs Galaxy S10
Here's how the 6.2" Galaxy S20 stacks up against the 6.2" Galaxy S10. With dimensions of 151.7 x 69.1 x 9.1mm, the new Galaxy S20 is noticeably taller and narrower, yet thicker than the Galaxy S10, which stands at 149.9 x 70.4 x 7.8mm. The Galaxy S10 was also a featherweight at 157gr, and hopefully, the S20 doesn't tip the scales that much more.
The 6.7" Galaxy S20+ will come at 161.9 x 73.7 x 7.8mm, which is taller, narrower, and slightly thicker than the 6.4" Galaxy S10+, which stands at 157.6 x 74.1 x 7.8mm. Weighing just 175gr, the Galaxy S10+ can be considered quite light for its size, which hopefully applies to the S20+ as well.
Finally, the largest Galaxy thus far. At 161.9 x 76 x 10.2mm, the 6.9" Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra literally trumps the 6.8" Galaxy Note 10+ (162.3 x 77.2 x 7.9mm). Thankfully, the S20 Ultra will be a smidgen narrower, which should make it easier to handle. At 196gr, the Note 10+ is okay for a phone of this size, but the S20 Ultra weighs a bit more.
Hopefully, this comparison would clear some of the confusion surrounding the size differences between the new and old Galaxy flagship generations. For a broader and more detailed comparison between the Galaxy S20 and S10-series, check out our dedicated comparison by following the links right below.
