Samsung’s latest phones are now official, and it’s releasing the Galaxy S20, slightly larger S20 Plus, and the S20 Ultra, which is even bigger yet. All three phones support 5G (though the standard S20 doesn’t support millimeter wave), feature the Snapdragon 865 processor in the US, and have a whopping 12GB of RAM. The cameras seem to have received a hearty upgrade, particularly the ones built into the S20 Ultra. Each phone is capable of recording 8K resolution video, but the S20 Ultra can shoot 100x zoom.

It has a 6.7-inch AMOLED screen. It comes in two colors, mirror purple, mirror black, and in certain regions, mirror gold. The Z Flip launches on February 14th for $1,380.
