The main Samsung store still sells S20 Ultra and the Galaxy S20+ for T-Mobile. But, the manufacturer's store for the T-Mobile SKU still hasn't restocked the Galaxy S20.
On the other hand, rumors stated that the available S20 brands have limited storage capacities and color options.

Is Samsung Galaxy S21 the reason for the shortage?

TMO News' suggested that the upcoming Galaxy S21 could be the main reason for the ongoing S20 supply shortage since Samsung will announce it in mid-January of 2021.

As of the moment, T-Mobile is not planning to restock the Galaxy S20 phones, but it could do so once the Galaxy S21 arrives. The telecommunications company could also offer it at a lower price as an alternative for Samsung's upcoming flagship, just like the current role of the Galaxy S10.
