Fair enough. Just didn’t know if I missing something regarding additional features. So it’s just the cameras and a little bigger right?

With those trade in deals I’m really conflicted now. Either keep the Pixel 4 xl that’s coming tomorrow or buy a s10 to trade in and bring the s20 cost to around 1k. Hmmmm.
For me it is the cameras and video. I would actually prefer the size of the S20+ to be honest.
I figure $1400 minus the trade is $800 then I can get maybe $200ish the extra for the early reserve stuff...so brings it down around $600 all told?
 
S20+ is ridiculously priced for me but I'll trade in my S10+ and probably sell off the pre-order goodies... While I'd love to have the Ultra, I just can't do it.

Of course , lot better than expected.
Granted I had guests here and two screaming toddlers so I couldn’t watch it properly. However it seems as though there were no surprises. Everything was as per the leaks. I will be watching it again when the kids go to bed.

don’t forget tax. A $1400 device is going to be over $100 in taxes. So roughly $1500. Man that’s serious money for a phone.
 
Btw, as they said they will push sw features to s10 - probably google duo.. but what about camera sw?
 
My gripe with Samsung releases and pre-orders is....They announce a phone on Tuesday 2/11 but order don't start until 2 weeks later on 2/21 for delivery by 3/06 WTF.....
Announce on Tuesday...pre-order on Friday for delivery next week or atleast the week afterwards. Don't make us wait almost a month lol

£1399? Yeah nobody will buy these at all...apart from techies on here of course. Looks fantastic but no the market will not pay that money...
My thoughts exactly. The older Galaxy S10+ will fly off the shelves now. Samsung will have to do some incredible discounted and trade-in deals to shift them.

It’s £1,199 for the base model of the ultra. So £50 more than the base model of the 11 pro max but you get double the storage.

Yeah, but you know how people are, iPhones practically sell themselves, huge celebrities use them like Kim Kardashian, Cardi B, Drake, Quavo, Rihanna, Naomi Campbell etc.... Go to some of their Instagram or Twitter pages and you will spot a iPhone XS or iPhone 11 Pro somewhere or see “Twitter for iPhone”

The S20 Ultra and S20+ will probably see more sales from enthusiasts, while the standard S20 should see greater adoption.
 
The $600 trade in deal already expired. I was on the page contemplating it but wasn't sure since I wasn't planning on an S20 anyway. Was almost going to pull the trigger on a pink S20 but decided not to. Then went to check on the deal again and it was expired. Samsung does such weird things with its preorder reservations. I had signed up for a reservation and they never emailed me. Doofuses.

They were offering me $300 on my 3XL and that's not bad. But what am I going to do with an S20 and a Note 10+ I don't know. I can see trading my Note for a Z Flip. Sort of. Maybe. I don't know. I'm sick and my head is stuffed and I have to clean the house and pick up kids and I just really want to curl up someplace and pretend I don't exist.

It was fun seeing the new phones though. But I am not feeling any of the colors except for purple on the Z Flip

True the iPhone is very very trendy with the Hollywood crowd! But then what is the new IOS/iPhone offering...more emojis? The iPhone is years behind other smartphones in features.

It’s digital zoom which is crap. The 30x looked ok. I’m more interested in the 5x optical zoom. This should still be quite a big step up from 2x.
To be honest I’ve not used telephoto loads on my pro max and wouldn’t use 30x loads but it’s nice to have and you never know when you may use it.

I think they’re trying to gauge preorders.
