    Excellent phone for the price. It looks and feels like a top teir phone. Super fast and the 120Hz refresh rate is very good. I've had plenty of phones in the past few years that include IPHONES, LG, MOTOROLA, GGOGLE, ZTE, ALCATEL, AND OTHER SAMSUNG. From top of the line to the bottom of the barrel and I can honestly say this would be in my top 3. I haven't had a chance to test 5g yet, but as of now it's a steal for the price.

    Samsung S20 FE is a true value flagship phone

    I'm rating this 5 stars for the *value* you get with this phone. Especially since I got it at the pre-order price of $599 (which I believe may be the current price at the moment). Prior to this, I've only bought Google branded phones since 2011 (though that phone was the Galaxy Nexus, which was made by Samsung, my last Samsung phone before this one). Then I had the Nexus 5, then the Nexus 6P, then the Pixel 2 XL, and now this. Coming from pure Google experience phones, this took a bit to get used to. It's much heavier than the P2XL, but still feels good in the hand. Basically, the phone is crazy fast, and has almost all of the latest tech you could want in a flagship, while giving up the most cutting edge stuff (that I don't notice, and many others likely won't), in order to bring the price back down to earth. It has UFS 3.1 storage (as fast as you can currently get in an Android phone). It has WiFi 6 (I don't have any WiFi 6 capable routers yet anyway). It has a 120Hz display (which is awesome, but after loving that for a few weeks, I switched it to 60Hz, and I haven't regretted that move). The point is that it's your choice, and you can toggle whenever you want. Cameras are very good (perhaps not Pixel quality, but they're definitely more versatile). "One Shot" mode is a ton of fun. At $599, this is a no-brainer. At $699 (list), it's an exceptional value, but other phones at least enter the competition.

    I love it. It's just about the same as the flagship S20, only 400 dollars cheaper. It takes better pictures than my camera. It's fast, customizable, the screen is great. It has some great apps installed and plenty of room for more. I don't think personally that I will need any more than the 128 Gigs of storage but I put a SD Card in anyway for music. Best phone I've ever had and I got 100 dollars off at Best Buy--Great value.

    I ordered this phone after having a Samsung Galaxy S7. I guess I didn't read the size good enough, because this phone was much bigger than I expected and it didn't/doesn't fit in my hands well. I had upgraded my S7 because it was only a 32GB and was running slow. The S20 does go pretty fast speed-wise, and I have it in a 128GB so I'm happy that I have more space for apps and other storage. However, I just wish I would have read the size closer. It is OK if you want a slightly bigger phone, but it wasn't what I was going for. Due to COVID, I wasn't able to get in the store and actually feel it out in my hands so I had ordered it when on sale and although I saved some money, I wish I could have handled the phone first.

    Upgraded from the S9+ and its worth it! Phone is great. Great camera, battery, speed, graphics. Worth the $600. That's how all flagship phones needs to be not with a $1000 or more price. Samsung good job!

    Even having owned previous galaxies the S20 Fe is instantly noticeable as special, the camera is amazing, the speed and refresh rate of the screen will make older phones feel ancient and the price is that of a mid tier phone. Simply a flagship phone for a few hundred less in price

    Great value and super fast, smooth great for gaming. This is a gorgeous flagship smartphone even 3 years later I'd still recommend this device! Cameras are phenomenal with 10x OPTICAL zoom (rather than fake digital lol) so you can't go wrong with this super fast device!

    S20FE review

    Moved from a ZTE Axon to a Samsung S20FE 5G. Truly glad I made the switch. S20 FE is fast utilizing the 5G network. Fits right in my budget without the extra bells and whistles that I'm sure I will not use often anyway. Purchased this item at Bestbuy in Vauxhall, NJ using the store pick up. Thank God, there was a dedicated line for pick up which helped accelerate the pick up process. I also recently purchased a small appliance and opted for the curb parking pick up due to Covid.... I ordered the item the night before on line, drove early before the store opened and waited for the order confirmation. I received the text a few minutes after store opened. I picked up the item at the curb parking in about 10 minutes after the store opened. Very convenient. Thanks Bestbuy.

    I love my new phone! Not only is it lavender, my favorite color it's actually exactly what I needed! I bought a Samsung S20FE 5G. I was for years using my S7 but there was no more memory and I couldn't even take a picture. I deleted a bunch of stuff and it still didn't make a dent. It was also super slow from the start. I can't wait to start snapping pictures on my new phone! Had no problem activating the phone at all. We had Sprint now TMobile.

    Speed is great, great battery life (usually around 6-7 hours screen on time), 120 Hz display is very nice to use, good speakers, and samsung's software has come a long way since touchwiz. Was one of the best deals at the time I bought this phone.

    This phone replaced an outdated LG Stylo 2. Comparisons to it would be unfair. This phone has so much more speed. The 5G is outstanding. The battery life is amazing. The screen display is like eye candy.
