Samsung is yet to reveal the official details. However, a recent report claimed to have leaked the pricing of the Samsung Galaxy S20 family. The standard Galaxy S20 is said to carry a starting price of $999 (roughly Rs. 72,000), while the Galaxy S20+ is rumoured to debut at an initial price of $1,199 (roughly Rs. 85,400) and the Galaxy S20 Ultra could debut starting at $1,399 (roughly Rs. 99,600). In addition to the smartphone models, the event could also brief the list of official Samsung Galaxy S20 cases and covers that would go on sale alongside the Galaxy S20 family.
At the Galaxy Unpacked 2020 event, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip will be the showstopper. The smartphone has already been promoted by the company through a TV commercial aired during the 92nd Academy Awards on Sunday. If we believe a recent rumour, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip price could be set at EUR 1,500 (roughly Rs. 1,17,000).

The smartphones are also said to have multi-camera systems, with the Galaxy S20 Ultra sporting a 108-megapixel ISOCELL Bright HMX primary sensor. The company is rumoured to offer Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC on all three models, though some markets would get the Exynos-version of the Galaxy S20.
The Galaxy S20 is rumoured to include a 4,000mAh battery, while the Galaxy S20+ would come with a 4,500mAh battery and the Galaxy S20 Ultra may include a 5,000mAh battery. The Galaxy S20 Ultra would also come with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of onboard storage.
