    emmitt.kautzer
    about 2 years ago
    The Galaxy S20 is Samsung's second smartphone (series) to feature an eSIM, after the Galaxy Fold. The new flagship also has dual SIM slots, one of which is a hybrid, in addition to an eSIM in most markets.

    andera
    about 2 years ago
    To turn off 5g on Samsung S20, go to settings and scroll down until you find “network” then tap it. From there, select “more connection settings” then change the setting for “5G NR” so that it will read disabled or not present.

    Does the samsung galaxy s20 5g have a headphone jack?
    sharie
    about 2 years ago
    All of the models in the latest flagship series from Samsung — the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+ and the Galaxy S20 Ultra — have ditched the headphone jack. Samsung does ship earphones with a USB Type-C connector in the box, but when those are being used, you can't charge your device while listening to music.
