Samsung Galaxy S20 Price in Pakistan & Specs
Samsung Galaxy S20 — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan

Design and Build Quality
At 163 grams and just 7.9mm thin, the S20 is one of the most compact flagships Samsung ever made — a genuine one-hand-friendly phone in an era of giants. Glass front (Gorilla Glass 6) and back with an aluminium frame, plus IP68 dust and water resistance, give it flagship-grade build quality that still feels premium in 2026.
Display Features
The 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel is the S20's crown jewel: 1440 x 3200 resolution (~566 PPI), HDR10+ and a 120Hz refresh rate (at FHD resolution). Even years on, this display outclasses most mid-range phones sold today — deep blacks, superb brightness and buttery motion. If screen quality is your priority, few used phones at this price touch it.
Processor and Performance
The Exynos 990 (7nm+) was Samsung's 2020 flagship chip. In 2026 it handles everyday use — social apps, streaming, multitasking, navigation — without breaking a sweat, and still manages moderate gaming. It is not a match for current flagship chips, and heavy sustained gaming will show its age. For daily use, though, it remains comfortably fast.
RAM and Storage
8GB of RAM with 128GB of fast UFS 3.0 storage was flagship-standard in 2020 and remains adequate in 2026. Storage expands via microSD, though the slot is shared with the second SIM (hybrid slot) — choose dual-SIM or extra storage, not both.
Camera Features
The triple rear setup is versatile: a 12MP main sensor with Dual Pixel autofocus and OIS, a 64MP telephoto with OIS and 3x hybrid zoom, and a 12MP ultrawide. The 10MP front camera shoots up to 4K video. For a used phone at this price, the camera system — especially the stabilised main and zoom lenses — is a genuine strong point, though night performance and processing trail current flagships.
Battery and Charging
The 4,000mAh battery is the S20's honest weak spot: it was modest even in 2020, and a used unit's battery will have degraded further. Expect to check battery health carefully before buying. Charging is well-rounded — 25W wired, 15W wireless and reverse wireless charging — but plan on a mid-day top-up with heavy use.
Software and Updates
The S20 launched on Android 10 with One UI 2.0. Samsung's official update window for this generation has ended, so do not buy it expecting new Android versions — check the software version on the specific unit, and make your decision on what it runs today, not what it might get.
Connectivity and Additional Features
4G LTE on this variant (do not confuse it with the separate Galaxy S20 5G). Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, USB Type-C 3.2 and Samsung DeX are included. The ultrasonic under-display fingerprint sensor was cutting-edge at launch. Note there is no 3.5mm headphone jack.
Variants, Colours and Availability
The relevant variants: Galaxy S20 (4G, Exynos 990) and Galaxy S20 5G — different models, so verify which one a listing offers. Also distinct: S20+, S20 Ultra and S20 FE. Colours: Cosmic Grey, Cloud Blue, Cloud Pink. The phone is no longer sold new in Pakistan; available units are used or refurbished.
Price in Pakistan and PTA Information
WhatMobile lists Rs. 170,999 — but this is a legacy official-retail listing from its 2020 launch, not a price you can actually buy at today. The S20 now trades in the used market, where price depends on condition, PTA status and battery health. Confirm the current used price with Zohaan Mobile Gallery, and inspect the unit in person.
PTA: PTA approval applies per device and IMEI, not per model — this matters doubly for a used flagship, since many S20 units in Pakistan are non-PTA or patch-approved. Send the phone's IMEI to 8484 and confirm "Compliant" status before paying. How to check PTA approval. Also read how to buy a used mobile safely.
