Samsung opens pre-order registration for Galaxy S20: How to Get You

Samsung's latest flagship device announcement is less than two weeks away. However, after all of the new handset's details were revealed on February 11, the Galaxy S20 is now available for pre-order.

Samsung has launched a pre-order page to sign up for pre-order access to what the handset maker is calling a "new era of Galaxy." By signing up, users will receive email notifications when pre-orders are available. (You'll also get a bunch of promotional emails from Samsung, but that's a break to give them your email address.)

Having a registration page for pre-orders is not out of the ordinary for Samsung, which has done the same thing with previous Galaxy S and Galaxy Note launches. And if you register, you will be able to see Samsung's chips when the Galaxy S20 arrives in stores.

Enter your name, email address, zip code, and wireless carrier preference (the latter can always be changed when you actually place your order), and Samsung promises that you will receive notification by March 6 of when you need to place your order to get the phone. That seems to confirm that that is the date the Galaxy S20 will be available for sale.

Previous rumors had the Galaxy S20 on sale on March 13, more than a month after the February 11 launch event; in addition to being a week earlier, a March 6 date would be in line with past practice for rolling out Samsung's new flagship smartphone

Registration page.

The registration page indicates that it will be available on AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, and US Cellular. Since these carriers have offered Samsung's recent flagship releases, it's shocking obviously not much. You can also order the Galaxy S20 unlocked.

Galaxy S20 rumors suggest that there will be three different models: a 6.2-inch Galaxy S20, a 6.7-inch Galaxy S20 Plus, and a 6.9-inch Galaxy S20 Ultra. Samsung is expected to release 5G versions of all three models, with the S20 Ultra being the only 5G version. It is almost certain that the new models will be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 865 chip, and many camera improvements are expected, especially for the Galaxy S20 Ultra.

Here is a closer look at the rumored Galaxy S20 vs. the Galaxy S10.
