The best Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus screen protectors

 

A screen protector is a simple accessory that can prevent damage to your smartphone screen, protecting it from scratches, dirt, fingerprints, and humidity.

If you own a Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus, we recommend using a screen protector to protect the edge-to-edge display. You can choose between film and tempered glass screen protectors, but it’s worth noting that some of the glass protectors can affect the S20 Plus ultrasonic fingerprint sensor — something to bear in mind if you use it regularly.

We’ve rounded up some of the very best screen protectors for your Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus available right now.

Its thinness means that the S20 Plus’ fingerprint scanner works perfectly well, as does the touchscreen itself.

Samsung resumes rollout of Android 15-based One UI 7 for Galaxy phones
The welcome screen for One UI 7 on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra.

Samsung had a rather rough start with the release of its heavily anticipated One UI 7 update. After a string of delays, the company finally started seeding the update for a handful of its flagship phones, but abruptly paused it, citing vague issues. Thankfully, the rollout is back on track. 

Updates tracker, Tarun Vats, shared on X that the stable One UI 7 update is now appearing for Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy S24 users in multiple regions across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and the US.

The Galaxy S25 doesn’t look like the success Samsung will have wanted
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.

Samsung leads Apple in smartphone shipment market share, according to data from Counterpoint Research, and while this may appear good news for the brand, a deeper examination into two very different strategies indicates Samsung may not be happy with the situation at all. For the first three months of 2025, Samsung controlled 20% of the global smartphone market by device shipments, followed by Apple with 19%. This is “sell in” data, meaning devices purchased from the manufacturer by distributors. It is a considerable change over the data from the last three months of 2024, where Apple led with 23% of the market followed by Samsung with 16%.

This is crucial to understanding why Samsung may be looking at the latest figures, which on the outside appear positive, with concern. At the end of 2024 Apple would have been riding high on the release of the iPhone 16 series, while Samsung would have been far removed from the Galaxy S24 series and the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6’s release. It makes sense for Apple to command a higher market share right after the release of its flagship devices for the year.

The saga of Samsung’s ultra-thin Galaxy S25 Edge has taken a couple of interesting turns, and not necessarily the good kind. We’ll start with the good news first. It was recently reportedly that management struggles at the company may have delayed the phone’s launch to the May-June period. 

Now, it seems Samsung has locked on a release date, and it’s sooner than expected. A reliable leakster (via SamMobile) has claimed that the phone will be announced officially on May 13. Previously, it was heavily rumored to arrive midway through April, before the corporate shuffle happened.
