Jacek, 29 Mar 2023I just had a thought. My S20 was manufactured in June 2022 ... moreCould I ask just to be 100% sure. You do have a regular S20 FE 5G model non 2022, right? I assumed that due to limited availability of the latter.

No gaming, no YouTube/videos, no photos. Just plain chrome browsing gsmarena.com and other news sites. Pretty bad battery life for a 2 week old brand new phone. I have the SM G-7810 (HK/China variant, unlocked) by the way. It's the 256GB /8GB RAM S20FE 5G and made in Vietnam. Software is OneUI 5.1 Android 13. Google Play System update is March 1, 2023. Security patch update is also March 1, 2023. May these Vietnam batches have really bad batteries. Does your S20FE 5G variant have similar software/hardware/model variant as mine or is it manufactured elsewhere?

However they still may sell it with shorter update plan. (it was meant to be for limited markets only) It's up to customer to check offer details first so that he's able to decide whether to buy or not. Can't blame others if he doesn't.
(PS Idk what's the support for that phone)
Ofc warranty is separate matter.

That would really be poor software support - just one year of updates when even the cheapest Samsung midrange phones get 2 major android software updates.
Re-releasing an old model should mean the same number of software updates be given to it from the date of re-release, not from the date of the original release. So if the original 2020 released S20 FE 5G came with Android 10 and had 3 major software updates (Android 13 being the last it has received), those who bought the 2022 re-released S20 FE 5G (which came with Android 12 out of the box) should be entitled to similar 3 major software updates - that is, up to Android 15. Otherwise, it would be unfair to buyers of the re-released S20 FE 5G 2022 to just get one with software update support ending with Android 13 (one major Android update only since their 2022 re-release).

Suddenly Bluetooth stopped working in my device. It is not turning on now when I try to turn it on.

I'm using this phone from past 1.5 years. All the specifications are good except the battery. I charge 3 times a day. Immediately after unplugging the charger 100 comes to 98. Within few minutes, it comes to 85. Overall will discharge in less than 6 hours.

Jacek, 29 Mar 2023I just had a thought. My S20 was manufactured in June 2022 ... moreThat's the new 2022 re-release of the S20 FE 5G so its still less than a year old. Mine was the original 2020 model S20 FE 5G. It's weird though why Samsung would re-release the S20 FE 5G in 2022 with exactly the same specs. Maybe there were a batch of really defective S20 FE 5G in the original 2020 release that they need to cover under warranty?

Long press the location icon. In the location services, disable bluetooth and wifi scanning.

I just had a thought. My S20 was manufactured in June 2022 (T6 date code in serial number). Maybe people who have high battery drain bought older models which have their batteries degraded over long period of storage when unused?
