Too bad the S20 FE has a hardware touch screen ghosting glitch. (Not software.) But that's what you get when you buy the cheapest version of their phone.
I feel an important thing to note is that the Snapdragon version is available in all markets on the 5G model only, while it's Exynos in other markets for the 4G version.
That's why it's a killer in Europe. I was about to get S20+ or S21 but as I'm playing a lot of games I came across people and tests that proved Exynos throttling destroys long term performance and battery life. Here in Poland the only Snapdragon flagship from Samsung I could get was FE 5G (4G has Exynos) and much more expensive Galaxy Fold. Shady move from Samsung to push the inferior device for European market. If they did it in US lawsuits would result in a massive recall.
Thank you for the review. I almost bought the A71 but your review about the lack of speed stopped me. This S20 FE review sealed the deal on my new phone. I had the S9 for a few years and loved it but it's time to move on.
i just got my FE 5G yesterday and there is so many things i love, Stereo Speakers are really good like it feels like it surrounds me, the 120hz is soo smooth, jumping back to 60hz feels laggy. Camera is pretty good but the zoom does lose abit of quality as it is slightly lower res than the regular S20 but you do get the full pro video from the Note20series and of course . . DeX
Great video! Keep up the great work. I can personally say. I had the S20 but no matter what I did. I just got horrible battery life. Gave the S20 FE a chance. And I can say. This phone is great! I can't notice any difference in speed, power or performance. The cameras are pretty equal to the S20. Battery life has been amazing! That fact that it's plastic it weights a lot less so it feels great in the hand. Samsung did a great job with this one. Only if they priced it at $599. This would of been the best phone of 2020.
I just bought myself s20fe a few days ago. And I regretted it. The battery is horrible. It goes down 1 percent every a few minutes no matter what I did. And the phone feels warm. I dont even play games? What to do?
As someone who just gets bored trying to learn new tech, I was happy that they didn't try to reinvent the wheel this time out. Upgrading from my S10E was flawless and easy. I have trouble believing most users, who were using Kodak throw away cameras 15 years ago, are that concerned about 2% improvements in phone cameras.
Thank you for the review. It's 11 months old phone but I was looking a budget phone and I m getting a good price with 2 year contract. Also I was confused in choosing blue or white. Now white is my choice after watching your video. Thanks so much.
I've had the galaxy s20 fe for a week now and I love it, cameras are great , video quality is awesome, battery life amazing, I have nothing bad at all to say about this phone. It honestly doesn't feel like a $700 phone at all, it feels like a phone that cost twice that amount. I would recommend anyone who wants a great honest to goodness phone buy the Galaxy s20 fe.
I have my Samsung Galaxy S20 FE for over a year now. I am still happy with the phone. The only down size I wish was different is the ear headset which uses USB type C. However, that can easily be resolved by getting a USB Type C Headset Jack Adaptor. It's not easy to find at many mobile cell stores. I highly recommend purchasing one (or exras to keep aside) on E-Bay which is much affordable. Other than that, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE is an awesome phone.
One GREAT thing about this phone and newer android versions... you get the choice to go turn off pop up notification from apps right under the pop up notification itself. Previous versions made you dig through menus into the permissions.
Just a heads up, you're wrong about only certain regions having the Snapdragon chip. All 4g models have exynos, and all 5g models use Snapdragon, no matter where you order from.
I have a knack of watching reviews of the phone i just got. This is my 8th today. Such a bang for my buck. Came from an XR. loving every part of this phone
@@its_halimat9814 i just felt like going back to android. It was worth every dollar spent. better display, camera was a bit better on xr but still great, and that dual sim just cant be beat.
Nice job on the review and I can yeah personally say I had this phone it was really good but I was one of the unlucky ones that got in FE with touch screen problems so I sent it back and was thinking of getting another one but found a s20 plus that was one month old and an iPhone user wanted to go back so I got that one for $640 . I do notice a few differences but not worth it if you're going to buy the s20 plus new but I think the 12 gigs of RAM do make a difference versus the 6.
Finally, a tech reviewer who I shafe the same opinion with about the Optical vs Ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. Of course Ultrasonic Fingerprint Sensor is MUCH MUCH BETTER than Optical ones for aoart from it doesn't need light to illuminate your fingerprints... It's just very seamless even if your fingerprints are a little bit too wet or a bit grimey which is the main weakness of optical/capacitive fingerprint sensors. Thumbs up to you Mark! Though honestly I would still prefer Note10 Lite over this phone not just because of the S-Pen but because it has put value on what you've paid for including with having a 25W charger and a wired headphones which is really nice. And mostly it's way cheaper and runs on the same OS. If anything but the advantage of this phone over Note10 Lite is the 120Hz screen refresh rate, wireless charging and stereo speakers (in exchange of a headphone jack).
5 days ago I got my S20FE cloud Blue, with a sd 865. I found one on discount sale for 1499 danish kroner, the same as about 219 $US, I had the J6, So this I really live. Few years ago I got the J6 almost at the same price that I got this.
Samsung's sales of the S20 series is down 59%. Enter the S20 FE. It incorporates 97% of the features of the S20 series. I got the ☁️ red 😍 and wow, even at full retail it's worth it's weight. You ain't missing much. The 865, 120hz display, very good 📷 's & 🔋. The price, Black Friday deal 549.00 USD. Not to shabby. You will not find a better phone at this price? It's blazing fast plus micro s/d expansion. Yep, kind of a no-brainer!
@@samiihaq Yes my phone is warm everytime I use it. I dont play games. I just use for messaging and browsing. I use 60Hz refresh rate to save my battery but still it runs out quickly and feels warm.
Honestly I agree with the plastic on high end phones... I love using my phones without cases, but I can's trust myself 😅 to combat that I usually use MNML cases, the super thin frosted ones, but still...
How long does Samsung provide software support for? I've had one samsung phone which began to slow significantly after 2 years. Ive never bought another since.
If i charge my s20 fe with 25w charger it took 1 hour 8 mins, and when i charged my a71 with 25w it took 1 hour 26 mins ....on the screen both are showing super fast charging option..... both have same capacity 4500 mAh battery 🤔🤔
Hey Mark. I bought the s20 fe because of your recomendation. I love it, its an amazing phone but unfortunately my country has the exynos version so it kinda heats up quickly.
Really want to move back to Android from my iPhone 11 but it’s either the S20 models with the Exynos crap or this S20fe 5G, but I’ve heard it has serious touch screen issues during gaming, photo editing and using google maps.

And heating like a hell even for the basic day to day app we use, i am not a game freak I generally use to watch RUclips, Facebook, Twitter, email..
Pulled a trigger on this beast for a STEAL can't pass up!.. so pumped and can't wait! Still a great phone to this day... Samsung really hit the nail on the hit with this one.
Hey guys! For those having a S20 FE: what's your experience regarding the camera quality? (I have a Samsung Galaxy A50 and was wondering about buying this one!) Thank you!
I unfortunately do not recommend the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G. I got one a couple of weeks ago and loved the phone but had to return it the next day due to what I’ve since learned is a common issue with this and other new Samsung phones. When you get the phone in any kind of sun light the screen flickers uncontrollably and then shuts off. Something to do with the adaptive brightness sensor. When I returned it the local AT&T store the associate told me they’ve been seeing this phone come back for this exact issue.
The ONLY thing that could've made this the best phone (maybe ever) is if it had Gorila Glass 5 (insted of 3) and a 3.5mm audio jack. That would've been a true Fan Edition. However that would've probably increased the price by alot...
I am your fan from India. I have a doubt that which is Best ? Under 60k ( oneplus 8 pro VS samsung galaxy S20 FE 5G ). Both are Indian variants and Has snapdragon chipset
It's flawed and the HR10+ is faulty Recording on the phone and local playback on the phone as well. Playback on youtube from uploading the HDR10 videos and playing back existing HDR10 content on youtube. Does. Not. Work.
@Jamie Brennan I'm not sure. I changed my cell data plan not long after I got my fe. Because of the unlimited data plan I keep wifi off during the day at work. The battery last longer now because it's a new phone and wifi off.
@@MrBallain No noticeable overheating or battery drain. I keep the battery charge between 40-80% most of the time. The battery health is 98% after 16 months.
Nope, I didn't. On lower spec devices, Samsung uses optical. It's the same with the FE. The display lights up under your thumb when you press it to the display so the optical scanner can scan your fingerprint. They have ultrasonic readers on the regular S20's and the Note 20's, but not the S20 FE.
Only a few min in so you may answer this question by the end of the video. I think the "plastic " is great. Ive got the note 10+ and in 1 year (with otterbox defender pro case ) I am now on my 3rd note 10+. So in my opinion, the smaller bez. Is another great move I think too. More drop friendly approach . BUT from coming from using a note phone, I personally think that I would end up complaining about not having my s-pen. One of those things you don't realize how much you use it until its gone lol. Ive tried to find a legit answer on this but cant... are the S20's (all versions ) and the FE version Stylus compatible? Like can I not become broke from buying a phone with a stylus when I can get the FE and use a stylus?
Lol I'm on my third Note 10 too The first was a Note 10 (the small one) and then two Note 10+ As you can probably tell from that, I personally shudder thinking of anlife where I do not have an S Pen. But my second phone is now an S20FE! Which replaced my previous phone B, the iPhone XS
And no The S20FE does not support the Spen No other phone does actually. Not anywhere in Samsung's line of phones The tablets do tho I have a Tab S6 Lite and it reads the pen from my Note 😅
@@kenbee1957 hahhah yeah these note 10 pluses are definitely huge and very fragile. I didnt want the plus due to me being clumsy af. But when I got it they were out of the regular note 10. I am not always using the s pen but I know for sure that I would miss having it if I didn't which is literally the only reason that I want the note20 or ultra. Im still debating. Like I feel like I would be less likely to destroy the note 20 rather than the note ultra. But from all the zillion videos I've watched trying to aid in the process just say how slack the note 20 is missing all the good things that the ultra has like wtf. That doesn't help hahah but id rather spend the $200 than fucking $600 all for a damn spen 😑😂🤦🏽♀️ With the note 20 being flat on the front rather than curved does it still give you the "edge screen apps" or did they completely screw that up too 🤔
@@caitlynlangham5118 I've tried the regular Note 20 for a bit at the store. They'll let you mess about with it for as long as you wish here in Germany The thing that people hate the most about it, the plastic back, I found myself really liking, even loving. It sealed my decision to finally pick up the FE The lack of expandable storage, not a big deal. It comes at a base 125GB and I can and have lived with that. No 120Hz screen? 90Hz is perfectly acceptable and very noticeably different from my Note 10+ No QHD. Well, the display phone I checked out was on a default FHD to show off the fancy new refresh rate. And it still outclassed all the other phones in the display Smaller battery? Well so is the screen so that shouldn't really matter much Everything else is pretty much the same as on the Ultra. Even the edge apps Lol (people rarely appreciate that feature but I think it's neat) Except for the cameras. They are not bad. They just aren't the same as what you get on the Ultra And I also really need my phone screen to curve! Its the one thing I'd say I'm missing on the FE
I would honestly pick it up in a heartbeat as a replacement for my Note 10 if not for the curved screen thing The price at the moment is far too high and just pushes you to spend more and just buy the damned Ultra. I felt the wiser thing is to just wait till the price on both goes down...and then get the Ultra Lol But to answer your question, if you've been using a Note and that SPen....the FE can NOT really replace it adequately. The Note 20 is the only option in that scenario
Reviewers will never tell you about current problems with the phone because they may be resolved in the future and/or because they make money and free products to only promote the product. If they mention the glitch, people will be hesitant to buy the phone.
what a shame tho also idk if the problem will be solve, it seems a hardware issue and i don't think Samsung will be doing massive recall... anyways, thank you so much for answering as the youtuber would never. have to admit i don't know who he is, i copypasted same comment in different videos bc seems they're trying to hide this issue.
THE S20 FE IS THE MORST COMPELLING PHONE OF THE YEAR with 95% of the ultra features. And just because its at a midrange price, doesn't mean its a midrange phone. If thats the case, than the iphone 11 at 699$ is also a midrange phone I have the s10+, trade in value is $450, making the price 250$, plus a 70$ credit that they give you to put towards another product . HOW CAN YOU BEAT THAT !!! And idk why ppl keep brining up the standard s20 for 670 on Amazon, BECAUSE YOU DONT GET A WARRANTY FROM AMAZON. Plus it's 670. The 699 FE has trade in program bringing the price down to 300$ so yea, trade it in

Hey guys! For those having a S20 FE: what's your experience regarding the camera quality? (I have a Samsung Galaxy A50 and was wondering about buying this one!) Thank you!
I unfortunately do not recommend the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G. I got one a couple of weeks ago and loved the phone but had to return it the next day due to what I’ve since learned is a common issue with this and other new Samsung phones. When you get the phone in any kind of sun light the screen flickers uncontrollably and then shuts off. Something to do with the adaptive brightness sensor. When I returned it the local AT&T store the associate told me they’ve been seeing this phone come back for this exact issue.
The ONLY thing that could've made this the best phone (maybe ever) is if it had Gorila Glass 5 (insted of 3) and a 3.5mm audio jack. That would've been a true Fan Edition. However that would've probably increased the price by alot...
What color do you like the most?
I am your fan from India. I have a doubt that which is Best ? Under 60k ( oneplus 8 pro VS samsung galaxy S20 FE 5G ). Both are Indian variants and Has snapdragon chipset
Should i buy the fe5g or the s20? I will be happy to hear your opinion before i will buy
been hearing about multitouch issues with the fe...
Is a fold lite still coming next year? And if not is this a good trade from a s10 plus? And does this have edge lighting?
End of year thing where the fe is the right price for christmas
It's flawed and the HR10+ is faulty Recording on the phone and local playback on the phone as well. Playback on youtube from uploading the HDR10 videos and playing back existing HDR10 content on youtube. Does. Not. Work.
I just ordered it but can’t find what camera screen protector will fit? Can someone please help 😭
There will be a screen protector on it just like the S10 and
Should i wait for galaxy s21 or no big differencys
Thanks Mark.
I traded in my s9 for a s20 fe. No regrets!
@Jamie Brennan I'm not sure. I changed my cell data plan not long after I got my fe. Because of the unlimited data plan I keep wifi off during the day at work. The battery last longer now because it's a new phone and wifi off.
any issues with overheating and battery drainage? im thinking about buying s20 fe as well
@@MrBallain No noticeable overheating or battery drain. I keep the battery charge between 40-80% most of the time. The battery health is 98% after 16 months.
Could you review the s21 fe when it releases when you have a chance
Wait a sec - am I mistaken or did you accidentally switch up optical and ultrasonic? Samsung goes with ultrasonic iirc
Nope, I didn't. On lower spec devices, Samsung uses optical. It's the same with the FE. The display lights up under your thumb when you press it to the display so the optical scanner can scan your fingerprint. They have ultrasonic readers on the regular S20's and the Note 20's, but not the S20 FE.
@@MarkSpurrell Oh okay my bad. Great vid as always anyway :P
Only a few min in so you may answer this question by the end of the video. I think the "plastic " is great. Ive got the note 10+ and in 1 year (with otterbox defender pro case ) I am now on my 3rd note 10+. So in my opinion, the smaller bez. Is another great move I think too. More drop friendly approach . BUT from coming from using a note phone, I personally think that I would end up complaining about not having my s-pen. One of those things you don't realize how much you use it until its gone lol. Ive tried to find a legit answer on this but cant... are the S20's (all versions ) and the FE version Stylus compatible? Like can I not become broke from buying a phone with a stylus when I can get the FE and use a stylus?
Lol
I'm on my third Note 10 too
The first was a Note 10 (the small one) and then two Note 10+
As you can probably tell from that, I personally shudder thinking of anlife where I do not have an S Pen.
But my second phone is now an S20FE! Which replaced my previous phone B, the iPhone XS
And no
The S20FE does not support the Spen
No other phone does actually. Not anywhere in Samsung's line of phones
The tablets do tho
I have a Tab S6 Lite and it reads the pen from my Note
😅
@@kenbee1957 hahhah yeah these note 10 pluses are definitely huge and very fragile. I didnt want the plus due to me being clumsy af. But when I got it they were out of the regular note 10. I am not always using the s pen but I know for sure that I would miss having it if I didn't which is literally the only reason that I want the note20 or ultra. Im still debating. Like I feel like I would be less likely to destroy the note 20 rather than the note ultra.
But from all the zillion videos I've watched trying to aid in the process just say how slack the note 20 is missing all the good things that the ultra has like wtf. That doesn't help hahah but id rather spend the $200 than fucking $600 all for a damn spen 😑😂🤦🏽♀️
With the note 20 being flat on the front rather than curved does it still give you the "edge screen apps" or did they completely screw that up too 🤔
@@caitlynlangham5118
I've tried the regular Note 20 for a bit at the store. They'll let you mess about with it for as long as you wish here in Germany
The thing that people hate the most about it, the plastic back, I found myself really liking, even loving. It sealed my decision to finally pick up the FE
The lack of expandable storage, not a big deal. It comes at a base 125GB and I can and have lived with that.
No 120Hz screen? 90Hz is perfectly acceptable and very noticeably different from my Note 10+
No QHD. Well, the display phone I checked out was on a default FHD to show off the fancy new refresh rate. And it still outclassed all the other phones in the display
Smaller battery? Well so is the screen so that shouldn't really matter much
Everything else is pretty much the same as on the Ultra. Even the edge apps Lol (people rarely appreciate that feature but I think it's neat)
Except for the cameras. They are not bad. They just aren't the same as what you get on the Ultra
And I also really need my phone screen to curve! Its the one thing I'd say I'm missing on the FE
I would honestly pick it up in a heartbeat as a replacement for my Note 10 if not for the curved screen thing
The price at the moment is far too high and just pushes you to spend more and just buy the damned Ultra.
I felt the wiser thing is to just wait till the price on both goes down...and then get the Ultra Lol
But to answer your question, if you've been using a Note and that SPen....the FE can NOT really replace it adequately. The Note 20 is the only option in that scenario
It sells for $450 @ Best Buy
With trade in.
@@Psychebane u are correct, I just looked. The sale they had must of ended. It was $450 on Verizon with no trade-in earlier
Bought mine outright $100 off for $599.99 unlocked at Best Buy! Best deal on a phone without question with the specs it has!
Hello! some people have notice ghost touches, did you experience something similar while using the device?? thank you!!!
Reviewers will never tell you about current problems with the phone because they may be resolved in the future and/or because they make money and free products to only promote the product. If they mention the glitch, people will be hesitant to buy the phone.
what a shame tho also idk if the problem will be solve, it seems a hardware issue and i don't think Samsung will be doing massive recall... anyways, thank you so much for answering as the youtuber would never. have to admit i don't know who he is, i copypasted same comment in different videos bc seems they're trying to hide this issue.
Fighting the good fight on finger prints..... Now thats a tongue twister!
THE S20 FE IS THE MORST COMPELLING PHONE OF THE YEAR with 95% of the ultra features. And just because its at a midrange price, doesn't mean its a midrange phone. If thats the case, than the iphone 11 at 699$ is also a midrange phone
I have the s10+, trade in value is $450, making the price 250$, plus a 70$ credit that they give you to put towards another product . HOW CAN YOU BEAT THAT !!!
And idk why ppl keep brining up the standard s20 for 670 on Amazon, BECAUSE YOU DONT GET A WARRANTY FROM AMAZON. Plus it's 670. The 699 FE has trade in program bringing the price down to 300$ so yea, trade it in
Waiting for the S21FE
But it has display issues even after the update
I have it, didn't face any issues
@@billjill4963 I'm worried to get it
@@billjill4963 i have bad luck when it comes to technology
Please do rewind review of S10e
1:13 - even if you have a sponsor - please don't let it "influence" your content - keep it real, please ✌️
Always do!
What is that pinhole next to the bottom camera?
do you have touch screen issues on your unit?
Nope.
@@MarkSpurrell I just got one and it's pretty bad. unlucky lol
Is S20 FE or pixel 5 better?
Just got one. Way better than my iphone xs max
Did you get the 5g or 4g
This is a good phone? With huge touch screen issues, extremely bad front camera images thanks to Sammys overprocessing, so so night mode rear camera.
I wonder how long it will be before we'll see plastic backs on flagship devices.

Absolutely. I also have the note 9. Its lighter and shorter
