Samsung Galaxy S20 5G • Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G • Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G
The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G is $1,400 up front or $58.33 a month for 24 months. Note that you can get up to $200 in Samsung credit when buying S20 Ultra or S20+ (use the Shop Samsung app to redeem). Also, existing Verizon customers can get up to $300 with a trade-in (applied as credit over 24 months).
The Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G is $1,200 in one payment or $49.99 a month. The S20+ can get an additional $150 discount (applied as credits during the 24 months of the contract).
Note that if you buy an S20 Ultra or S20+, you get get up to $1,050 towards buying a vanilla S20 if you activate a new line. Also, Verizon gives you a 6 months subscription to the Hatch game streaming service.
Speaking of, the Samsung Galaxy S20 5G is $41.66 a month or $1,000 in one lump sum. Note that while Verizon carries the Galaxy Buds+ (it has been selling them for nearly a week now), they are not part of a free pre-order bundle like in other regions.
All three models will feature support for Verizon's 5G network. Check out a speed test at 0:40 in the video below.

AT&T offers up to $1,000 credit with a trade-in (which, you guessed it, will be applied as credit installments each month).
