The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G was released October 2020, making it one of the newest models Samsung has to offer.

On release, the initial retail price was £599 but it’s available on contract deals through MoneySuperMarket.

Design

The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G consists of a 6.5 inch display, making it slightly larger than the Samsung Galaxy S20.

For an even bigger option in the range, the 6.7-inch Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus or the 6.9-inch Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra are your choices.

Similar to the other phones in this range, the S20 FE has an infinity-O display to create a truly immersive experience for your streaming, gaming or video calling.

The 84.8% screen-to-body ratio consists of a glass front, sleek aluminium frame and a plastic back with a range of colours.

The colours include cloud lavender, cloud mint, cloud navy, cloud white, cloud red and cloud orange.

The weight of this phone is 190g with dimensions of 159.8 x 74.5 x 8.4 mm.

Camera

The easy-to-use triple lens, pro-grade rear camera allows for high quality shooting in any environment.

The 12MP wide and ultrawide lenses are accompanied by an 8MP telephoto lens which helps give a 3x optical zoom and 30x super resolution zoom, creating high quality photos for you to enjoy.

The phone also has a 32 MP selfie camera, an improvement from the 10 MP camera that the original S20 offers.

Specs

The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G’s 6.5 inch display has 120Hz refresh rate which is twice as fast as many other smartphone screens, including the older model of Galaxy S10.

The phone also offers 128GB of storage, but owners do have the option to expand this with a microSD card. For phone choices with a larger storage capacity, both the S20 plus and the S20 Ultra offer a 512 GB model.

It is powered by a 4500 mAh battery that should easily last a day, as well as offering fast wireless charging.

As with all models in the S20 range, the S20 FE is both dust and water resistant up to a depth of 1.5 metres for up to 30 minutes.
