What is the Galaxy S20 FE and what does it feature?
The Galaxy S20 FE has all the usual Galaxy S features, including a premium processor (Qualcomm Snapdragon 865), expandable storage, IP68 rating, large 6.5-inch AMOLED display, wireless charging, 4,500mAh battery, 6GB of RAM, and support for 5G. However, it does sport a “glasstic” back and offers a reduced display resolution and no headphone jack.
As for the triple-lens camera system and familiar module on the back, it consists of a 12MP wide-angle lens with optical image stabilization (OIS), a 12MP ultra-wide lens, and an 8MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, and 30x digital “Space Zoom.”
From what we can tell, the Galaxy S20 FE is a solid device. It appears to be for younger people who don’t want to spend a grand on a phone. Samsung is still offering the same three years of Android updates, which means you should get Android 11.
