Yes, it’s nearly time for Samsung to announce the latest Galaxy S-series phone.
Samsung is taking a new approach this year by announcing and releasing its next Galaxy S-series smartphones about a month earlier than normal. It’s a move that’s aimed at better competing with Apple’s iPhone lineup. It feels early, and indeed it is. But because of the nearing launch date, we’re also beginning to see a lot of leaks and rumors bubble up to the surface. We’re tracking all of the details and have highlighted everything you need to know about Samsung’s upcoming phones below. Last year, Samsung went from the Galaxy S10 to the Galaxy S20, but this year the company is sticking with counting by one. As you’ll see throughout this entire post, Android Police’s Max Weinbach has revealed a lot of key details about the upcoming phones, including their rumored names. Samsung is currently preparing a Galaxy S21, S21 Plus and an S21 Ultra. According to Weinbach, Samsung will announce the new Galaxy S21 lineup on Jan.14. That’s roughly a month earlier than when Samsung usually announces the S-series update. The event is likely to take place virtually.
