Currently this is by far the best value in Brasil (and possible all of SA). We are getting the Snapdragon version. I miss the 64mp camera from the S20+ but it is not worth the 30% premium in value (here) nor the downgrade to the Exymos sensor from the S20+.
My biggest annoyance is the lack of 3.5mm jack. But all flagships are killing it, unfortunately.
Baffles me how everyone here is complaining about the lack of glass in the back. Glass is heavier, insulates heat and breaks easily. I had a phone with glass back that got shattered from a measly 50cms drop. However, I don't get what Samsung did here to make the S20FE heavier than the S20+ despite being smaller and using plastic. The 186g weight of the S20+ is really nice to the hand. I really dislike these 220g+ phones.

      I totally agree, only your review has front camera details, its front camera is bad, even phones under 200 has better camera then this, otherwise great phone

          YuriRP87, 21 Sep 2021Same situation here. Pondering between Samsung Galaxy S20 F... moreI had the same dilemma. Specs wise S20 FE 5g has better features than A52s, however the major drawback that I see is the overheating issue with S20 FE 5g and the battery drain issue. S20 Fe 5g can heat up even when you are browsing or using YouTube etc. while A52S can handle it better than S20Fe 5g. Please let me know if others have similar or alternating opinions.

                    Same situation here. Pondering between Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G 8/256 vs Samsung Galaxy A52S 5G 8/256. Almost the same price currently in my country. Is the A52S 5G camera significantly better than the S20 FE 5G? Will be using it mainly for Retro Gaming and occasional Android Gaming.

                        Nikojas, 16 Sep 2021This 20FE in 4g exynos model is now same price as A52s 5g..... moreI think the Galaxy A52s 5G is better choice only if it is the s 5G model. If not, the S10 FE with exynos is a better choice on my opinion.

                            In general it's not a great phone:
                            1-Taking photos with a flash is totally crap.
                            2-fingerprint is totally useless and makes you pissed off so that you'll turn it off.
                            3-don't but the superfast charger because while charging the touches on the screen don't work correctly.
                            4-GPS freaks out many times while using Google maps
                            5-no jack.

It has good design, body, battery but at the expense of being one of the heaviest phone of 2021.

                                And s20 Fe is like jack of all trades and master of none. It will give you good processor, camera, ip68 rating, good 120hz display, good backup but nothing best.
