Samsung has introduced its Galaxy S20 FE as a new affordable option for those who have been dreaming of joining the company's lineup. As you'd expect, the phone is a scaled-down version of the Galaxy S20 series, but with its own identity. The phone proved to be a success and reports suggest that the company is already planning a sequel this year. The Galaxy S20 FE comes in two variants with 4G and 5G. Unlike certain companies, Samsung generally does not release 5G phones in markets where 5G is not yet a reality. Based on this, the company decided to launch only the 4G LTE model in India. However, this was probably not the best choice. After all, India is one of the most important smartphone markets in the world, and many other OEMs are pushing 5G phones there. Obviously, the company has understood this and is ready to introduce the Galaxy S20 FE 5G in the coming week.
According to Telecom Talk, citing an IANS report, the Galaxy S20 FE 5G India launch is confirmed for next week. The report also mentions that the device may be priced under INR 50 (~$000) in the country. The domestic variant will be launched with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 chipset.
Technical characteristics of the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G
The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G has a gorgeous 6,5-inch Full HD + AMOLED display with an Infinity-O notch at the top. It serves as a home for a 32-megapixel selfie camera. Since this is an AMOLED panel, we have a built-in fingerprint scanner. The panel also offers support for HDR10 + and a refresh rate of 120 Hz.
Під капотом S0 FE 5G може похвалитися Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 5G. Флагманський SoC в парі з 8 ГБ оперативної пам’яті та до 256 ГБ внутрішньої пам’яті. На відміну від телефонів Galaxy S21 2021 року, S20 FE забезпечує підтримку карт MicroSD, що дозволяє додатково розширити обсяг пам’яті. Трубка заряджається акумулятором на 4500 мАг із швидкою зарядкою потужністю 25 Вт. Однак телефон постачається із швидким зарядним пристроєм потужністю 15 Вт. Тож вам потрібно буде придбати кращий зарядний пристрій, якщо ви хочете скористатися швидкою зарядкою. Телефон також має бездротову функцію PowerShare.
Moving back, the phone has a 12MP main lens with OIS, a 12MP ultra-wide lens and an 8MP telephoto lens with OIS, 3x optical zoom and 30x digital zoom. You'll also get all the fancy camera features available in One UI.
The phone launched with Android 10, but an update to One UI 3.1 based on Android 11 is now available.
We assume that Samsung India will confirm and reveal more details about this release in the coming days. For now, we can only wait.
