Weekly poll results: the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE gets embraced by fans

04 October 2020
The Snapdragon 865 version more than the Exynos 990 one, though that one had its defenders as well (it's the cheapest S20 model right now).

    This is not a Fan Edition This is Exynos Edition

    Samsung tricked indians with Exynos processor again so seems they are not taking indian market seriously. As 5G phones are trending with other flagship brands but samsung is working on their benifits.

This is simply money grabbing. Dispensing with a feature that could easily be included simply to be able to cross sell own brand manufacturer airbuds and airpods etc. Don't fool yourself into thinking that this is a move in the interest of consumers. It's purely exploiting another opportunity to empty your pocket.

          X41, 05 Oct 2020Specs are good Design looks like a $99 phonePersonally the design look's fine, a bit understated and plain. I don't like the silver rim around the punch hole on the display, makes it stand out even more.

                  FYI, this phone might be a S20 type but it doesn't have the Secure Element chip that all the other S20 variants have. Spoke to Samsung support to get this info.

Explain some of those brands that still have headphone jacks and still managed to be slim. Or those makers that put them back again after saying something stupid. Like Sony's ambient design something blah blah.

                          almost every phone right now shifts to non headphone jack. that what tech does.
                          and i also like you hate wireless headphones. i aint got none of them. only wire one.

                          but you guys need to stop bragging about it already. the world is moving forward each year and so should y'all.
                          even tho those company make tons of money of the wireless budes and all the replicates of it.
                          truth hurts.

I also went ahead to buy a few more of Zenfones which worked well for the price and had some extra features built into the UI. While their recent flagships have scored well, I'm not really a fan of that flip up camera but rest of the features are great. The reason I'm going for the G8 is that Dual Screen case which is something fancy and also improves gaming by far. And then there's 3.5 mm jack with Quad DAC audio and low latency bluetooth which is important to gamers. The SD card slot can be used to store media while the internal storage will be taken up by the games so that's an added advantage

                              and if I were to choose either or it would be neither lol - I'd rather wait for whatever new thing they make next to see if they learnt their lesson by me not emptying my wallet.

                                    The 5g version really resemblances of how Poco F1 was out years ago: flagship chipset in a plastic back cover phone, though it has kevlar edition, but I doubt everyone can get has on that. The point is: it was the proper flagship killer that everyone wants. Now Samsung try to repeat the idea. Let's see if it works.

                                      I'm using it for over 3 years now, but I feel the need to get a new phone just for the sake of pleasing my eyes.
                                      Aa much as we use nowadays our phones, for most of us, I think it's impossible to hang on to a phone for 4 or 5 years. Not happy though about the flagship prices for the new midrange phones. I payed $700 for my S8...(not like the Galaxy S20 FE wouldn't be a better phone by any means compared to the S8, but still!!!)

                                        Samsung should have provided the 3.5 mm jack atleast because people are not getting the 865 variant so the jack would have helped... everything else are okayish or atleast they should lower the Exynos ones price as it is not the best performer...
