Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S20 on Verizon 5G
One of the bigger conundrums around the new models in the US is the base Galaxy S20 arriving later on Verizon.

How to get the Galaxy S20, Plus or Ultra Samsung store credit on T-Mobile or Verizon
Samsung’s own web store may not be the best place to preorder the new Galaxy S20 series, unless you are gunning for the unlocked version. That’s because all the free gifts and extended trade-in values are also available if you get them from, say, the carriers stores or Best Buys, but they are also tacking on their own perks and BOGOs.
