Verizon's Galaxy S20 5G UW is finally available for purchase in the US. This is a special variant of the Galaxy S20, and it features support for mmWave 5G, hence the ‘UW' branding in its name. This phone can be purchased for the same $999 price as that of other carrier-specific versions of the Galaxy S20 5G. You can either pick it up from one of Verizon's stores or order a free, 2-day doorstep delivery.
Verizon is selling the Galaxy S20 5G UW in three colors: Cloud Pink, Cloud White, and Cosmic Grey. The Cloud White colorway is currently exclusive to Verizon's network. The carrier is also offering a $150 discount in the form of bill credits if you purchase the smartphone using the carrier's 24-month installment plan ($35.41/month). The phone comes with 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.
If you buy the phone today, you'll get a firmware update as soon as you take the new phone out of the box. The new firmware comes with software version G981VSQU1ATEA and the June 2020 security patch. Samsung is also selling the phone through its own online store, where it is offering several financing options and a buy-back guarantee program.
You can also buy the Galaxy S20 5G UW through Best Buy, which started taking pre-orders for the phone last week. The retailer is selling the phone for $999 as well, but you can get a $100 discount if you activate the phone on day one. There's also a $29.16/month plan for a two-year contract.
