All sorts of information is floating around on the web these days about Samsung's upcoming flagship series. Given what we know about the device so far, it's going to be launched as the Galaxy S20. Samsung will offer three different models under the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+ and Galaxy S20 Ultra monikers.

A new rumor is now making the rounds on Twitter which suggests that the front camera on the Galaxy S20 Ultra will boast 40MP resolution. It's said to be the only handset in the series to get this camera.

Galaxy S20 Ultra may have a 40MP front camera

It's already known that the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+ and the Galaxy S20 Ultra will feature a 6.2-inch, 6.7-inch and 6.9-inch WQHD+ display respectively. The Galaxy S20 will be the first series from Samsung to adopt 120Hz refresh rate panels.

Samsung's very own Exynos 990 is going to power the Galaxy S20 lineup in most markets. The Snapdragon 865-powered variant will only be sold in select countries, though some reports have suggested that it may be sold in more markets this time around. All three models will have 5G variants.

Today's rumor suggests that the Galaxy S20 Ultra will feature a 40-megapixel selfie camera while the other models get a 10-megapixel sensor. The Galaxy S20 Ultra will also be the only device to feature Samsung's 108-megapixel primary camera, coupled with a 48MP Telephoto and 12MP ultra-wide camera. It will be capable of 10X optical and up to 100X digital zoom.

It's also claimed that the Galaxy S20 and Galaxy S20+ will feature a new 12-megapixel primary camera with a 64MP telephoto and a 12MP ultra-wide camera. Both are said to support 3x optical and 30x digital zoom. It has previously been reported that all three models will be capable of 8K video recording.

Just how much of this turns out to be accurate remains to be seen, all of the rumors we have seen so far have built up to these expectations from Samsung's upcoming flagship. Will Samsung have anything left to surprise us with? We'll know for sure come February 11.
