Lol, I'll take function and features over fashion. I don't need to look good for everybody because you know what Darth Sidious would say, he has the time to save everybody but not himself. Only LG uses a Quad and Sabre DAC that increases the ohms by a lot and too bad their Korean bretheren (Samsung) doesn't want to hop in.

        S20 is the replacement for S10
        S20+ is the replacement for S10+
        S20 Ultra is in another category, as you can see by the price.

        S10e has no replacement which is good. battery sucks.

                Exynos = no deal.
                Ugly camera bump require a case to lay flat and steady = no deal.
                Battery still not enough for full day use,
                120hz will drain the battery more.
                Pricing is just silly. Sammy need $400 profit per phone? Reduce profit to $100 per phone, and sales would sky rocketing. Sadly greed leads to million of lost sales.

                  Its a slippery slope when manufacturers call cropping a photo zoom.

                    Camera bump too tall, put the phone on a table and "enjoy' the phone wiggle,
                    left right - left right.
                    Battery still to small on S20 vanilla model,
                    will Not last a day for many users.
                    Paying $1000 and still have to carry a power bank, or buy a battery case, not good enough.
                    Exynos still only options in many countries, not good enough for a $1000 mobile phone.

                    Colors, Samsung got it wrong this year.

                    On my way to the mall to buy a S10+ for $595
                    S20 fail for my personal preferences.

                      Nothing complained but the exterior design of S20/S20+. They taste other mid-range Samsung phones (you can name them), nothing special, no signature design on front and rear side like Samsung used to do in their flagships. So sad.

                        Headphone jack are so 'out of fashion and time.
                        Mobile phones are set to drive 30 Ohm headphones, while most high class quality headphones are 100-200 Ohm!
                        While most complain about micro usb port, and demand usb-c, many of the same people want the old headphone port. Go figure.

                          Why every phone is so big?. Why cant one phone for smaller hands folks?..

                          140mm X 70mm form factor with 5-5.5" would be perfect..

                            Very bad colors option. The blue and pink suitable for 5 yo kids. I can use the grey color for my home's fence paint. The black is sooo standard. This time i will skip the preorder

                                  Big disappointment. No optical zoom and main camera only little better than on S10. Xiaomi Note 10 camera is much better. Very similar to S20 Ultra. And it costs 400 euro. S20 costs 900 euro with much inferior camera. It was bad strategy from Samsung to put 108 MP camera only to S20 Ultra.

                                    I just read the spec sheet carefully and realised that S20 and S20+ DO NOT COME WITH A TELEPHOTO LENS. That 64MP sensor is behind a fixed 28mm equiv. lens and can only zoom in using cropping.. what the hell??? For proper "zoom" you're supposed to buy S20 Ultra, whose price is out of reach for most consumers. That's just.. I'm not even sure what to say.

                                    I'll still wait for the real life camera samples to show up, but as for now neither of them will replace my S10 nor P30. Who would've expected Samsung to put a secondary camera DEDICATED for 8K video recording on a mobile phone lol.

                                      Anonymous, 12 Feb 2020USB type C headset is bundled in I believe. I'm sick of these dongle thing, overtime the charging port loosened and the music stops when you put it on your pocket due to its connection. Aside from that you can't use your headphone when charging via cable. Oh, don't tell me about those wireless headphones, because they sound crappy to my ears not to mention you'll need to charge them also.

                                        So, all of it lacks the 3.5 mm audio jack. Good luck to the music lovers out there.
