Review of Samsung Galaxy S20 5G

South Korean corporation Samsung last year gathered the eyes with three Galaxy S models, and in addition to the usual and "big" S10, the "small" s10e joined the group. There will be no mini flagships this year. Their role may be somewhat taken over by the previously unveiled S10 Lite. Now we are already dealing with a flagship, a large flagship and an ultra version. In other words, welcome, Samsung Galaxy S20, Samsung Galaxy S20+ and Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra!
