The Samsung Galaxy S20 series has been launched, with three new devices being announced during the Samsung Unpacked event held in San Francisco on the 12th of February 2020. We’ve got the Samsung Galaxy S20, the S20+, and a new range-topping Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G, with official Malaysian pricing as follows:
Samsung Galaxy S20 – RM3,599
Samsung Galaxy S20+ – RM3,999
