About the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G

The Galaxy S20+ 5G sat in the sensible middle of Samsung's 2020 line-up, giving you the 6.7-inch screen size of the S20 Ultra without its weight, its bulk or its slightly temperamental camera. It was one of the first phones to make a 120Hz display feel normal, and that panel is still the main reason to consider one today. The camera set is the more dependable of the two: a 12MP main sensor that Samsung tuned well, a genuinely useful 12MP ultrawide, and a 64MP sensor used for sharper 3x hybrid zoom and 8K video. UK units run the Exynos 990 rather than the Snapdragon 865 sold elsewhere, which was the phone's weak point at launch for both efficiency and sustained performance, and it is worth knowing about before buying. Six years on, the 4,500mAh battery on a used handset is the other thing to check. Samsung's three years of Android upgrades and four years of security patches have both run out, so this is now a value pick rather than a long-term one.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G worth buying?
It is a reasonable refurbished buy if you want a large 120Hz AMOLED screen, expandable storage and a dependable triple camera for very little outlay. The UK Exynos 990 version is less efficient than the Snapdragon model sold in other regions. Software support has ended, so there are no further Android or security updates.
Does the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G have a microSD card slot?
Yes. It takes microSD cards up to 1TB, which is something Samsung dropped from the Galaxy S21 generation onwards. Combined with 128GB, 256GB or 512GB of built-in storage, it is one of the more practical choices for anyone carrying a large music or photo library.
Does the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G have a headphone jack?
No. Samsung removed the 3.5mm jack across the whole S20 range, so you will need USB-C headphones, a dongle or Bluetooth. The phone does support wireless charging and 4.5W reverse wireless charging for earbuds.
How long will the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G receive updates?
It will not receive any more. Samsung provided three Android version upgrades, taking it to Android 13 with One UI 5, plus four years of security patches, and both windows have now closed. Buy it knowing it will not be patched again.
Is the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G camera good?
Yes, for its age it remains solid and predictable. The 12MP main and 12MP ultrawide cameras produce bright, punchy shots typical of Samsung, and the 64MP sensor drives a sharp 3x hybrid zoom plus 8K video recording. It lacks the true periscope zoom of the S20 Ultra, so long-range shots fall away quickly.
Should I get the Galaxy S20+ 5G or the Galaxy S20 Ultra?
The S20 Ultra adds a 108MP main camera, a 48MP periscope with 4x optical zoom, a bigger 5,000mAh battery and 45W charging, but it is heavier at around 220g and its autofocus was criticised at launch. The S20+ 5G is lighter at 186g, easier to handle and has the more consistent camera for everyday shooting.
