The Samsung Galaxy S series launches in the first quarter of every year and it looks like next year will be no different. While the Galaxy S11 isn’t launching until the first quarter of next year, rumours have already started trickling in for the device. Additionally, it is said that the Galaxy S11 series will launch alongside Samsung’s new foldable phone, which may be called the Galaxy Fold 2. To recall, Samsung launched the Galaxy Fold alongside the Galaxy S10 series on February 21 this year.
The latest development comes from noted tipster IceUniverse who took to Twitter to reveal the launch date of Samsung Galaxy S11 devices. According to the rumour, the Galaxy S11 series will launch in San Francisco, USA on February 18, 2020. This would be right before MWC 2020 and falls in line with Samsung’s release schedule from the past several years.

Samsung Galaxy S11 leaks have been coming in for a while now. The Galaxy S11 is said to come equipped with a high refresh rate of 120Hz. Also, the Galaxy S11 has been reportedly certified in China for 25W fast charging. Another leak claims that the Galaxy S11+ could sport a custom 108MP camera sensor that will be different than the ISOCELL HMX Bright sensor unveiled a few months ago. The new sensor is said to be different from the one used on the Xiaomi Mi Note 10. However, what will be “superior” in the new sensor remains unknown.
The Samsung Galaxy S11 is expected to be made available in three sizes – 6.2 or 6.4-inch, 6.7-inch and 6.9-inch models. The S11+ said to feature a rectangular camera module that may sport up to five sensors along with laser autofocus and a flash. It is likely to stick with the curved display.
Coming to the second device, Samsung is also expected to launch the Galaxy Fold 2 on February 18. It is tipped to be a clamshell foldable phone like the Motorola Razr 2019. The handset is rumoured to be priced lower than the Galaxy Fold.
