New phone leak roundup: Samsung Galaxy S20, Huawei P40, Pixel 4a [January 11 — 17]

Images, renders and videos of upcoming smartphones are constantly getting leaked.

Top brands like Huawei, Samsung, Google and Apple tend to get leaked the most with Google’s smartphones sometimes being nearly completely revealed months in advance of their official release.

All of these leaks are often difficult to follow, so we’ve compiled a list of this past week’s hottest rumours. Specifically, any leak that has occurred from January 11th to the 17th.

Spoiler alert: most of these rumoured are about upcoming Samsung and Huawei smartphones.

Samsung

At the beginning of the week, live images of the Samsung Galaxy S20+ were spotted online. The phone features four cameras, a flash and what appears to be a microphone hole. This handset seems to feature a 2.5D glass as opposed to curved glass, and reportedly comes with a pre-installed screen protector.

According to this leak, the S20+ is the middle-tier handset in the series, with the S20 Ultra being the premium version this time around.
