Based on the Galaxy S30 rumours and leaks we've heard so far, we're in for a treat: it sounds as though Samsung is once again going to improve the screen and camera technology, and quite possibly bump up the internal specs of the phone at the same time.

Samsung likes to keep its phone launch schedule the same every year, even in the middle of a global pandemic, and that suggests that the Samsung Galaxy S30 (S21) is going to be with us in February 2021. The Galaxy S20 was unveiled on the 11th of February 2020, at one of Samsung's own dedicated Unpacked events.

With future top-tier shows such as CES and Mobile World Congress in jeopardy or moving online, it makes sense for Samsung to host its own event again this coming February (it's what happened for the Galaxy Note 20). As a result, you might want to hold back on your next smartphone upgrade until you've seen what the Galaxy S30 has to offer.
