It seems quite evident that this display refresh rate setting will be for the upcoming Galaxy S11. The smartphone will most likely launch with One UI 2.0 out-of-the-box. The smartphone has so far been rumoured to launch in three screen sizes - 6.4-inch, 6.7-inch and 6.9-inch. Galaxy S11 is also said to continue with curved edge Super AMOLED display. Samsung is also expected to launch two 5G models from the Galaxy S11 series.

Leaks also indicate Samsung is going to go big on camera with a 108MP sensor. Samsung already has a 108MP image sensor which could debut on the Galaxy S11. This would be a major bump in the camera department for Samsung phones. The previous generation Galaxy S10 has the highest 16MP sensor from its rear camera trio. Galaxy S11 will be powered by the new 7nm Exynos 990 processor. The chipset is said to boost graphics performance and overall performance by up to 20%.
