Samsung Galaxy S20

📅 2020 📷 12 MP 🔭 3x tele 🎬 8K24
from $999

📖 Overview

The Galaxy S20 pairs a 12MP f/1.8 main sensor (1/1.76") with OIS, a 12MP ultrawide, and an unusual 64MP telephoto that delivers 3x hybrid zoom and doubles as the source for 8K/24fps video. Native Pro mode supports DNG RAW capture, though Samsung's later Expert RAW app was restricted to the S20 Ultra and never reached the base S20. A 120Hz display (FHD only) and IP68 rating round out a capable, if telephoto-quirky, 2020 flagship imaging package.
