Samsung's new smartphones are here, and as usual, there's a variety to chose from, and your choice doesn't necessarily lean on screen size.

With each model of the Galaxy S20 comes different specs, features, and prices the smallest Galaxy S20 gets left out of some premium features while its bigger siblings get some extras.

Still, at the end of the day, each Galaxy S20 has the the same core specs and features that makes every model a top-end, premium device in 2020.

Check out the differences between the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20 Plus, and the Galaxy S20 Ultra:

The Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20 Plus, and the Galaxy S20 Ultra all have regular, ultra-wide, and zoom lenses, but each model differs. Here are the main differences:

Galaxy S20:

A 64-megapixel sensor that takes 12-megapixel regular and ultra-wide photos, and 64-megapixel zoomed photos.
3x optical "hybrid" optical zooming and up to 30x with optical and digital zooming.

Galaxy S20 Plus:

Same as the Galaxy S20, but with an extra depth-sensing lens for enhanced portrait mode shots.

Galaxy S20 Ultra:

12-megapixel regular photos
108-megapixel ultra-wide photos, and 48-megapixel zoomed photos.
A special lens with 10x "hybrid" optical zooming and up to 100x with optical and digital zooming.
A depth-sensing lens for enhanced portrait mode shots.

The Galaxy S20 and S20 Plus have 10-megapixel selfie cameras with 80-degree field-of-view.

The Galaxy S20 Ultra has a 40-megapixel selfie camera, also with an 80-degree field-of-view.

All Galaxy S20 models can connect to a 5G network, but only the S20 Plus and S20 Ultra can connect to the "fastest" 5G network.

The Galaxy S20 can connect to low and mid-band 5G networks , which should still offer higher speeds than a typical 4G LTE network, but not the crazy gigabit-per-second speeds you may have heard about with 5G.

The Galaxy S20 Plus and Galaxy S20 Ultra can connect to high-band "mmWave" 5G networks that can theoretically achieve crazy high speeds. The trade-off is that high-band 5G networks don't have very good range, so high-band coverage will be a lot spottier than low or mid-band 5G.

Battery sizes and chargers.

Galaxy S20 Plus: 4,500mAh, fast 25W charger included

Galaxy S20 Ultra: 5,000mAh, fast 25W charger included, 45W charger optional.
