A published by The Elec last month claimed the Samsung Galaxy S11 will come equipped with a 5x optical zoom camera. Now, a leaked benchmark listing has surfaced online, suggesting the Galaxy S11 series will have taller screens than the company's current flagship phones.
The folks over at spotted an alleged + variant with a placeholder SM-G416U model number on the HTML 5 benchmark database. While the listing doesn't include a lot of information, it does suggest that the upcoming Samsung flagship will use a taller 20:9 aspect ratio.
Unlike most other Android flagship smartphones released this year, Samsung's 2019 flagship smartphones feature a 19:9 aspect ratio. It is possible that the move to a taller aspect ratio would mean the Galaxy S11+ will be narrower than the Galaxy S10+ and also have slimmer bezels.
While Samsung hasn't released a flagship phone with a 20:9 display yet, it has already launched four phones with the same aspect ratio. The company's mid-range Galaxy A70, Galaxy A70s, , and all feature 20:9 displays.
Along with the screen's aspect ratio, the benchmark listing also reveals the device is currently being tested on Android 10. This is hardly a surprise, however, as the entire Galaxy S11 lineup is expected to ship with right out of the box. Similar to the series, Samsung may even introduce a minor refresh of its One UI skin with the Galaxy S11 series.
