    I’ve been a loyal customer to the brand HTC for my phones, but they no longer make them, so I had to make the switch. So far I love it. Having a new phone is always exciting, but there are so many features I’ve been missing not having a new phone for the last 3.5 years. There are some adjustments I’ll have to make. The phone is longer than I’d like and some of the functions are opposite than I’m used to. The picture quality is amazing. The camera takes great photos, though I haven’t fully played with the features. So far I highly recommend this phone!

    Great camera, fast phone. Great alternative to the higher priced s20s without the high price point. The only difference is the processor speed. Definitely not worth spending an extra few hundred dollars for a little bit of a faster phone. The screen seems a little bit more touchy than I'd like but that's because I i use swype to text. Other than that I love it.

    I love this phone. I haven't had any issues with the fingerprint recognition, as others have reported. The screen is a thing of beauty. Videos are a pleasure to watch, the cameras are first rate. Used the 100x zoom..... yes the result was 'off', a bit fuzzy but workable. My job requires manipulating large files, ...no problem. Apps work seemlessly. And the battery lasts all day. Haven't done much with the pen yet, that's next.

    I bought this open box, but I've had this phone for almost two years now and still love it. With the combo of a good screen protector and case it will really last a while. I've spilled water on it and dropped it. No cracks on the screen and only a few scuffs on the back corners of the phone. Only thing I dislike about it is there's not as much of a case selection online.

    Best galaxy s series deal out there. If your iffy about getting the S21 series vs this and price is an issue, go with this phone. It does everything you would expect and more. Battery life is great, screen is nice, camera and speakers also great. Only advantage the S21 series is going to have is faster updates.

    This phone is an amazing value for the price, and I enjoy the samsung software experience. At first, I was worried the 6 gb of RAM would be an issue, but I am able to run multiple games in both the foreground and background without issue. I do not like the missing headphone jack, but it's tolerable with an adapter. The specs combined with a guaranteed 3 years of updates makes this phone pretty future proof.

    Samsung S20 FE 5G - Happy!

    I bought one of these to replace my S7. The day I stopped in, Best Buy had a deal that I couldn't pass up. I am completely satisfied. Battery life is excellent, and the phones have all the options I was looking for. I'm still tweaking a few settings, but most things were transferred seamlessly from old to new phone. This saved a lot of time. I have had no issues with the fingerprint security on this phone, even with cases and screen protectors installed. 5G rollout isn't quite there yet, but at least the phone supports it when it is. I'll probably never notice any difference with 4 LTE. Overall, this phone is getting more user-friendly with each evolution. Moving up from some outdated phones, I can really tell the difference and like the upgrades.

    Got this for my son when his old phone went out. I have the s20 ultra which is more than 2x the cost of this. Put it simply, this is the phone to get. This phone does everything my ultra does. Although my ultra my be a little faster and has a few more features, especially in the camera, you wouldn't know it if it wasn't side by side. Buy this one and save yourself a bunch of money.

    I absolutely love my new phone it does everything and more that I wanted it to I'm still learning because there is so much to do the storage is great the only complaint I have is that the screen cracked two days after I got it after a small drop so it's not very durable but it can be fixed at a very low cost thanks to Best buy's protection plan on the screen protector I bought

    Love this phone. Does absolutely everything I need it to do and offers great storage for all files i.e., music, photos, vids. I've had it now for a couple of months and wanted to leave a review after ample time of having it. I can honestly say this phone is worth every cent I spent on it.

    This review is just my opinion on what I experienced while I was using this Samsung S20 FE 5g phone, I'm not a License Professional nor a Tech person just a consumer. What I like about Samsung S20 FE 5g are the features of the phone it was fast, & it has expandable memory like microSD slot, NFC, water resistance (as long as you don't dip it in a pool for a long time lol!), For internet connections it has a Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax 2.4g+5ghz Awesome!, Bluetooth, and for the Camera this one has a rear Triple Camera 12MP Ultra Wide (back) while in a (Front) for Selfie ones it has 32MP Camera perfect for taking pictures and use it in a mini photo box studio. When you open any Applications & scroll it… You'll see how smooth & fast if you try one. For a display screen, I was amazed how clear it was for watching a video in a 6.5-inch 6 Infinity-O Super AMOLED display screen with a super smooth 120Hz. The only thing that I don' t like is that this model does not have a dual sim for the price that I paid. I know all phones are very expensive but for the phone that is a hefty price they should have put that features as well. If you're looking for a dual sim make sure to double-check at the store first if they carry one. I was looking for a dual SIM, but unfortunately I have no other choice back then because they only have 1 phone available in their store. I'm not sure if all best buy carry a single sim model only since mine that I bought from the store was just a single sim model. Double check to the store if you need a dual sim instead because not all models has a double SIM card or a Hybrid SIM Slot, I'm sure some of them carry those double sim card model.

    Who needs a flagship

    Who needs a flagship when you can get nearly all the features at $600 for the pre order price? This phone is an excellent option into the mid range as it provides many of the features that make Samsung's flashing S20 model so flashy but at a much better price. Replacing a Galaxy S9+ with this S20 FE and couldn't be more pleased with the upgrade. The screen is gorgeous and crisp, it's extremely responsive during gameplay, and fits in my hand very similarly to the S9+. Only complaint is that it feels like it weighs a bit more but I can't complain as it's likely due to the later battery capacity.

    My previous phone was supposedly 5G compatible, but AT&T said it was not. Therefore, i needed a phone, fast! Best Buy had a sale/promo and I had so.e discounts - so, I bought this. Love it! It's my first Samsung, but not my last. Have had thia phone for three years and regret nothing!

    Purchased for my mom. Excellent different version of flagship S20. Best features you need for everyday life including good camera, speed, expandable memory option (which is getting extinct nowadays), awesome screen and variety of color options. Best of all, affordable price.

    This is by far the best phone I have owned to date. It is easy to use and navigate around the many features. The camera features are great. During a Zoom appointment my doctor asked if I was on a cell phone or computer, commenting that it was the clearest image he had seen from a phone.

    Great phone so far. The cameras are pretty good, I haven't even pulled out my 35 MM in a while. It is slightly larger than the last Galaxy I had and it took a little getting used to sticking out of my pocket so much further. I also like that it seems to have better volume with apps and phone calls.

    Solid phone for the money (if you get it on sale) I used a T-Mobile and a Verizon SIM in it and service is the same as if I used it in a locked/carrier variant of a phone. Camera is solid. Downside is no 5G mmWave for Verizon and no native video calling, but I use apps for that

    I bought this device from best buy for $500 used/ returned in excellent condition. The display is amazing. I'm cooking from a Pixel 4xl which also has an amazing screen, but this Galaxy S20FE DISPLAY IS MUCH BETTER. The camera is very good, although when taking pictures of moving images there is quite a bit of motion blur. I don't like bixby or all the Samsung smart things integrations however. I have a lot of nest and Google devices and like to use Chromecast a lot. Samsung offers this, but makes it less convenient than using samsung devices for sharing content. I prefer Google Assistant to anything obviously, and dedicating a button to bixby again makes it less convenient to use Google Assistant. The lack of a power button is also a bummer. What would be a power button is the bixby button, lame. I don't like this as I like the convenience of being able to power of my phone with a physical button. To wrap it up, this phone is amazing. I just hope Samsung will keep up with Android updates.
