Samsung may launch its Galaxy S11 series smartphones on this date

Samsung is gearing up to launch its first flagship smartphone of the year 2020 and is yet to confirm the Galaxy Unpacked 2020 event date where Samsung usually launches its Galaxy S-series flagship smartphones. Traditionally, the event takes place before MWC begins and 2020 will be no different. According to Israeli news site Girafa, the Samsung Galaxy S11 or Galaxy S20 (if recent rumours are to be believed) will launch on February 11 at an event in San Francisco, which is almost two weeks before the MWC 2020 which is scheduled for February 24 in Barcelona.

During the Galaxy Unpacked event, Samsung is expected to launch the alleged successor of Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10 Plus. However, the Israeli news website only mentions the regular Galaxy S11 or Galaxy S20 and the ‘Pro’ version (roughly translated via Google Translate).

Apart from this, the website also suggests that Samsung will unveil the second-generation foldable smartphones and Apple Airpods Pro rival on the same day.

By now, several leaks and rumours about the smartphone have already surfaced online that suggest that the upcoming Galaxy S11 or Galaxy S20 will feature a punch-hole display similar to Galaxy Note 10-series and it will also feature a rectangular camera housing at the back. Apart from this, the smartphone is also expected to feature a primary 108MP primary camera sensor along with a 48MP telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom.

In addition to that, several rumours have indicated that the upcoming Galaxy S-series phone will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 or Samsung’s Exynos 990 depending upon the region.

Another leak suggests that the next Galaxy S smartphone is rumoured to come with 45 watts fast charging tech and even faster wireless charging support.
