That's all the flagship I need. Plastic (or metal) to me is way better than glass. More resistant, cheaper fo repair and, combined with the relatively low price, way easier fo use without a case. And that flat screen. Great. PS: this phone is so well balanced that a lot of reviews are complaining about the silver ring in the front punch hole.

In Australia too Madeline , if samsung had given us this better chipset option on the high end models on the note ultra , the S20 ultra , the big furore over paying top dollar may not have eventuated , and if samsung came to their senses and had also given us the flat screen option on the top of the line models and a 3.5 mm headphone jack , very few would have sooked about paying top dollar for a handset with all the good bells and whistles ( Are you listening Samsung ? ). These phone manufacturers seem to be really clever in some ways , but really , really thick in others , we see the crap going on with google handsets , google refuses to give customers the bells and whistles they want , and every year sales suck for googles pixels , hell i wouldnt buy one . Hopefully the FE models are the start of Samsung waking up .

@@mikldude9376 We are so glad to finally get the Snapdragon The exynos is so poor in comparison and we were expected to pay the same price. I think not! Shame you Australians didn't get the same as us. We think this is experimental from Samsung and if sales are good they will give us the snapdragon 865 in the S21. I think the sales of the S20 and the S20 Ultra were poor here so they have had to go back to the drawing board. People like me simply refused to buy any phone with the exynos version.

Thanks for the camera sample! Several members of my family are upgrading phones around the next blackfriday and this is the ONLY phone i recommended them. In my region we only get the 5g/8gb ram version, that comes with usb-c headphones and pre-applied screen protector too. If the plastic back is like the a71 or the n20 then i really wont miss the -fragile- glass.... Only thing am bummed about is that samsung cheaped out on the charger; heck even the $350 a71 gets a 25w charger in box! Otherwise, the s20fe is a killer deal!

[@yallahabib8498]

Yep, pretty much sums it up, the FE is actually the phone for most people, and the Ultra or that sort of a model is for the tech enthusiast or the Rich people who buy just because they can And for the plastic, as long as they keep doing the metal frame, I'll be fine, because if they use plastic frame too, thats just insulting and compromise the durability so much

[@mikldude9376]

Good video Mike , Its kinda funny , if sammy had brought out some of features from the FE 5g model on the big dollar flagship models , like flat screen for example and given those of us in the exynos global regions the option to have the snapdragon chipset , i firmly believe samsung would have absolutely killed 2020 in sales. A lot of people seem to think it is just about money , but from where i stand , it was for a lot of customers the lack of samsung listening to what the customers wanted and feature and hardware sets offered , not too mention other long time samsung features in the last couple of years that have been omitted , like the 3.5 mm headphone jack , the heart rate monitor , the dedicated notification light. Some people say oh but apple and google ditched the 3.5 mm headphone jack , i would say to them " who cares what apple and google do " ! The point is , phone manufacturers can get away with having a certain amount of leeway the customers will give them if they are not happy with one or two features , but when you cross that line , customers start looking elsewhere for their handsets , even if they have been long time loyal customers , and we have seen this in the note models and the the S models of this year , and to some extent even last year . The FE 5G model does go some way towards alleviating that problem for samsung imo with this particular model , i would have liked to have seen a 3.5 mm headphone jack , and maybe a couple more gb of ram , and i would have happily paid extra for it . But its a start anyway .

I have the phone and I'm returning it. Now don't get me wrong, it's a solid phone especially for the price but I'm coming from an S10 and I prefer it in almost every way except for battery life and the 120hz refresh rate. Battery life is obviously a big deal but the refresh rate isn't as big of a deal as I thought it would be. But yeah, the S10 is faster (faster scrolling, faster at opening apps most of the time, faster navigating throughout the UI), it has a noticeably better front facing camera, it has the headphone jack that I love, it has better stereo speakers and last but not least it has a much much much better fingerprint sensor. The one on the FE works like 5% of the time for me, no joke! That's the main reason why im returning it because it's so frustrating. Overall the FE is a great phone but my S 10 is just better in almost every way.

[@adam_roman]

I'd take plastic on a phone back, no matter what the price. Glass is a fingerprint magnet, is way more expensive to replace, and most people use a case anyway so your phone's not gonna feel anymore "premium". I've only had one phone with a glass back, my Galaxy S8, and it's just pointless. I'm glad to go back to a plastic back phone like my Galaxy S4 or LG G4.

I mean dis's alright but when you face it against the s20 or + i guess it's clear In my country the s20+ has the same price 650$ 😅😅 so don't change my mind bro 😂 much love 💪 u'r the best

[@vigneshgajula1359]

Does the exynos version is better to buy?because it is the only version available in india

[@BrunoSilva-lx4pz]

🙄🤦‍♂️ People in the comments saying that like this phone because plastic is better than glass because doesn't break. Have a gorilla glass 3 in the front 🤦‍♂️

[@kusukusu1360]

People are more willing to put on a screen protector than a case imo

[@Andrew-it7fb]

Yes, there's glass in the front but there's actually a reason for that. There's no reason to make the back more fragile. 🤦‍♂️

[@BrunoSilva-lx4pz]

@@Andrew-it7fb I am criticizing a mobile phone in 2020 still having gorilla glass 3. Basically the samsung s20 fe has the same gorilla glass as the Samsung S4 from 7 years ago! Worse only if came without a charger 😂😝

[@Andrew-it7fb]

@@BrunoSilva-lx4pz and I'm pointing out that preferring a plastic back doesn't have anything to do with that.

[@BrunoSilva-lx4pz]

@@Andrew-it7fb People can like what they want. I made the comment because if people say "I prefere plastic back then glass because doesn't break" but the phone have gorilla glass 3 in the front (launched 7 years ago, so it break super easy) it's a little bit (it's a lot) contradictory.

This is the future iPhone 12 6.1" killer if leaks are correct.

[@andyH_England]

...in reality, it is the s20 and s20+ killer, although those were already killed by the iPhone 11 which sold 10 times more than those which is amazing bearing in mind the iPhone 11 was 6+ months into its cycle! The iPhone 12 will have OLED this year so may even do better than the mega-selling iPhone 11!

[@UProductions457]

andyH_England. I meant on paper. Not sales figures. Too many people want the logo on the back (and their 64gb of storage lol) or they bought the $400 Apple Watch and can't get anything else.

[@andyH_England]

@@UProductions457 yes, but most phones are better spec than the iPhone so people will still buy the iPhone due to brand or habit! So a killer in specs, true as per norm, but that is not everything.

[@sweetestgravy9880]

@@andyH_England It's mostly an IOS or Android preference. If you're invested in the IOS ecosystem, you have no choice! However, if you are new to phones, the Android side can be very compelling and in most cases, the better option for people on a budget. The thing with specs is that most people won't be able to tell the difference between an A14 and a SD865. You will only notice it in very specific operations which the majority of people who buy phones don't use. They are both great phones and you can't go wrong with any of them.

@@sweetestgravy9880 I agree me I'm an android guy but yeah whatever your preference go with your gut or what you know

[@jn1752]

I prefer glass. I have a 3 year old Samsung phone with glass on the back (it cost around $300) and it would be perfect if not for the small storage space.

[@robinszoo]

They won't sell the buds at no charge to the public. I tried no dice !

[@charliemoorejr.]

Would you get this phone, or Pixel 5 or iphone Xs?

[@TechNomadUK1]

How about an all-star comparison: S20 FE vs S20 (regular) Vs OnePlus Nord Vs Galaxy 4a/4a 5?

[@E_Legend]

Is this worthy enough to upgrade from the s8. Very interested in this phone.

[@toneloc79]

Will this get three years of up dates adriod 11

[@kindsplash21]

Yes it will get 3 years of updates
