Watching yt or other streaming platforms is perfect with no buffering ever basically if you have any signal at all. The feature I use the least on this phone is the actual phone function but it works flawlessly also inside a 40k Sq ft building that has been known to disrupt some communication I've never had an issue. Best phone I've ever had. Adding a picture of a dog just because I can lol

The phone has been outstanding. Even though it is considered a mid range device, I haven't noticed any deficiencies. It's fast, smooth and just as good as any phone I have ever had including flagship devices. 120hz refresh rate makes it one of the smoothest I have ever owned. Battery life has been great, although it is starting to get a little shorter lately. But I have also owned this phone for 25 months, so that's kind of expected. Still getting a full day out of it, just have a little less at the end of the day when I go to charge it. Unfortunately, the charging port has stopped working entirely. Fortunately, the 15w wireless charging works great, but I do miss the 25w super fast charging you get by plugging it in. I don't know if this is an issue with these ... MoreThe phone has been outstanding. Even though it is considered a mid range device, I haven't noticed any deficiencies.

Gaming, multitasking, or just browsing, it runs without a hitch. Even the cameras have been fantastic. I've been very pleased with it and cost less than the s20. I would like to see an S22 FE 5G. I would consider that upgrade for sure!

The phone has worked great so far, good amount of space, nice pictures, ran fast, and more. The screen is big and has good quality visual-wise when playing games or using apps. However... I was already disappointed about the fact that they no longer had a headphone jack that you could attach earbuds (but I'm not sure when that was removed anyway). But then when I finally got myself an adapter, there was this constant clicking that-- no matter what I changed in settings-- would not go away. I went through some sites where other people have been having this problem and apparently it's been happening even to the s10 before this. The person trying to solve this issue posted back in 2020 and it still hasn't been fixed, it's now 2022.

I don't want to have to switch and buy wireless earbuds just to have decent audio. :-(

My S7 lasted for 6 years and finally died. Looking around for a good replacement at an affordable price, I finally came across the S20 FE 5g.The screen is large which is what I like. The back is not glass, but plastic. However, it does not feel cheap. The sides are aluminum and overall, it has a flag-ship premium feel to it but it might feel a bit large for those with smaller hands. My hands are fairly large so it fits perfectly for me.The fingerprint reader is built into the screen and I have had no issues with it working. It responds fast and gets me into my phone within a second or two. It's also integrated well with other apps to provide security as well.This currently has Android 12 on it. The one drawback to this device is it's 2 years old, which means ... MoreMy S7 lasted for 6 years and finally died.

It responds fast and gets me into my phone within a second or two. It's also integrated well with other apps to provide security as well.This currently has Android 12 on it. The one drawback to this device is it's 2 years old, which means it started at Android 10 and will receive Android 13 as its final OS upgrade. That means after Android 13, only security updates will be released for the next couple of years following, so that means support for the phone for anyone getting it in 2022 won't last as long if you had instead gone for a newer device like the S22. But, for the price, you cannot beat this. And for me, I always make my phones last years after the updates stop. My S7 is a case-in-point. I got it in 2016 and made it last 6 years. But, for those that look at upgrading every 3 years or so to ensure they always have a device with the latest Android OS, then this may not be the device for them as stated earlier in regards to Android 13 being the last upgrade for this phone.Bluetooth works great in my car as well as with my earbuds. This might be another rub for some, but there is no headphone hack. However, for me, I have been using Bluetooth earbuds for years now and I love it. No wires to tangle up and I don't have to ensure the chord is long enough to reach my phone if I'm doing something like mowing the lawn with the phone in my pocket. I have had no issues with dropped connections with it. It works flawlessly with my car which also has Android Auto in it. It connects quickly and Google Maps is fast and responsive. With my S7 (with it so old), Google maps would hitch, pause and move sluggishly. Also, I would have to wait almost up to 1 minute for Android Auto to fully start up once it was connected to my car. At home, WiFi connection is also stable and fast.All applications feel snappy and fast and I haven't had any issues with any of the applications I use. In fact, many that seemed to perform just "fine" on my S7 have new life breathed into them as I can definitely see a marked improvement in response and speed.The screen is a Super AMOLED, 120Hz HDR10+ screen. It makes things such as scrolling, games and videos be very smooth and fast and the overall responsiveness of the phone feels great. Colors are vibrant and the touch screen is very responsive. I have not encountered any issues where it doesn't respond to what I want except in one area. I've noticed with the screen almost reaching basically to the bezels, you have to be careful how you hold the phone because sometimes, I would find the screen not responding to taps and swipes. The reason was part of my hand (such as a finger) was already touching the screen at the edge, so when my other hand would perform an action, nothing would happen. So I've had to relearn how to hold this phone properly from how I used to do it with my S7. My S7 had a wider gap between the bezel and the edge of the touch screen, so it gave a little more room for my fingers to grip the phone. But I have been able to adjust quickly to this and have no longer had the issue.The processor is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865. While it is an older processor, it still can keep up with some of the newer phones in many respects. And in some areas, it outshined newer phones with newer processors. Gaming-wise, it is great. Non-gaming-wise, still very fast and responsive.As for storage, the S20 SE 5G version comes with 128GB of storage and 6GB of memory. With the SD card support, you can vastly increase the storage capacity of your phone with a microSDXC card up to 1TB.The phone also comes with a USB-C fast charging cable as well as a power adapter. However, the power adapter is not 25W, but 15W. Therefore, you will get fast charging, but a 25W adapter will be faster. You will have to purchase a 25W brick separately. Too bad they didn't just give you the 25W adapter with the device, but today there are phones that only come with the cable and no power adapter, so this was a nice move on Samsung's part when they released this phone.Overall, the small minor quibbles I have with this phone are just that and do nothing to detract from my overall pleasure of having purchased this device. This phone for me was a great deal at the price which was below it's original release price. Compared to the newer phones, it might not have the latest hardware, but price/performance-wise, you can't beat it. But as this is coming up on 2 years, I think Verizon has a limited stock and they do seem to be going fast. If you can get it, and you want to NOT spend a lot of money on a new premium flagship device, but you still want to get a phone that is pretty near to a flagship device in performance and features, then IMHO the S20 FE 5G is worth it.
I bought this as an upgrade for college and honestly, it has survived so much of my college shenanigans I feel like its invincible. Accessories include a basic clear, TPU case and an Am@zon recommended screen protector. I am notorious for throwing my phone because I think it's easier for me to set down my phone somewhere far away so I am not tempted to scroll for hours. Thus, throwing my phone somewhere across the room has been the best option for me. It has survived crashing into my bed, my roommate's bed, the open closet, the drawers, and most frequently, the cement floors. Not a mark, a scratch, a dent, or any obvious changes to performance. It has been 8 months since I first touched this phone.Other than it's invincibility, the performance is nothing to ... MoreI bought this as an upgrade for college and honestly, it has survived so much of my college shenanigans I feel like its invincible.

Everything runs as normal and I can run big games such as Gensh1n 1mpact without it lagging or force closing at random times like my 1Pad (sigh). Design is as customizable as always and I appreciate that there are so many options to being able to choose my accessibility.I originally only wanted the S20 FE orange edition because of the bright color but honestly, I have found so many more ways that I appreciate this phone.
Bought at Noel Leeming Hawera.The screen is visually nice, although colours are oversaturated. It's nice to touch as well. The phone is much more snappy than my old one too. Apps usually open quickly, and scrolling up and down is fast. I don't play games, so I can't comment on that. Battery life is OK - it seems like that hasn't improved at all in five years since I bought my last phone, which was a lot lighter than this one. Two days.The camera island on the back is too big. I have the phone in a case, but there is a big cut-out in the case for the cameras so the protective glass can rub against pockets and such. I think the anti-reflective coating will wear off the camera cover glass fairly soon, leaving photos looking smeared and dull.Out of the box, photos ... MoreBought at Noel Leeming Hawera.The screen is visually nice, although colours are oversaturated.

I think the anti-reflective coating will wear off the camera cover glass fairly soon, leaving photos looking smeared and dull.Out of the box, photos look ludicrous, like cartoons, but it's fairly easy to change the setting to "natural", which means not quite ludicrous, just over-saturated, over-contrasty, and skin-like textures (detected by the AI) being over-smoothed. Much like every other Samsung phone; not quite as bad as some iPhones. Auto white balance was good, colour shades are approximately right once you switch to "natural". Instagrammers will probably be very happy with this phone. (Please instagrammers, enable the grid and get your horizons level! Thank you.) The telephoto is a nice feature.Phone sound is reasonable, and phone calls and music and video playing work fine with my Jabra bluetooth earbuds. Not drop-outs or funny behaviour so far, and I haven't noticed much lag.I had trouble with apps crashing a lot after I bought the phone, but an OS update has halved the number of crashes to maybe 20 a day. As above, re-opening apps is quick, so I hardly notice now. I doubt that Samsung will support this model for long (their track record isn't good), so I'm not holding my breath for another OS update.The in-screen fingerprint reader was ridiculously bad before the OS update, but it is now mediocre, so that's a great improvement. I actually use it now, sometimes. Face recognition is fairly quick most of the time.Notifications. Out of the box the phone is set up to notify you about everything and it takes a few hours to prune that back and switch off vibration, if you can't leave "do not disturb" on permanently. But every other phone is the same: phone makers don't value your time or sanity.I bought a refurbished iPhone Xs after this, and tried that out for a while, but I have come back to this phone because it's a little nicer in daily use. Despite the lack of iMessage and FaceTime. Make of that what you will.
This is a long-term review of the Galaxy s20 FE. I've had this phone for almost 2 years so I think I can provide some insight. First of all, I love the features of this phone, many of which are no longer included in many android offerings. For example, MST is still very useful in the United States as there are still grocery stores that do not accept NFC payments. So the MST acts like a regular credit card by creating a magnetic field around and allowing payments to go through on Samsung pay.

I've had this phone for almost 2 years so I think I can provide some insight. First of all, I love the features of this phone, many of which are no longer included in many android offerings. For example, MST is still very useful in the United States as there are still grocery stores that do not accept NFC payments. So the MST acts like a regular credit card by creating a magnetic field around and allowing payments to go through on Samsung pay. I also really appreciate the microSD card slot which allows expandable storage so you never have to pay extra to upgrade the storage on your phone unless you are a heavy app user. Lastly, I appreciate that at this price point, Samsung provided a panel that is 120 Hertz and this makes the experience a whole lot smoother. Now almost after 2 years, however I still feel like I need to upgrade. I had a lot of bugs on the s20 FE. Nothing serious but a lot of annoying things. For example, whenever I entered Instagram app it would always freeze for a little bit. Over time, I also noticed that the phone eventually slowed down and lagged a little bit, but that is probably just due to the phone having so much storage over these years. The cameras were fine. Nothing crazy, good or bad. I liked that I had the option of three cameras. The ultra wide camera was almost unusable in low light though, as well as the telephoto camera. The main camera was good but all three cameras did soften images a bit. I feel like for video this is about on par as most Android phones, but maybe falling a bit behind in 2022. It was fine for the almost 2 years I've had it but I wanted to move to something more clean, intuitive, and smooth. So I ended up upgrading to the Pixel 7 and don't regret it one bit.
Nighttime photography - get rid of the FLASH PROBLEM Longer Battery Life - It lasts 7 hrs. 20 mins of about 5 hrs of use. I bought this because my co-worker and friend have the same S20 fe and their photographs were amazing, especially of the full moon (at night of course). I am so disappointed in the night photos mine takes. There's a circle of glowing light in nearly every night photo. I tried holding the camera differently, cleaning the lenses & flash, tried every setting, still this circle distorts 65% to 95% of the shot, mostly from left to right or center, on pretty much all of my nighttime photographs. I was able to determine it is from the flash. If I disable the flash and use my own light source (headband LED light bar/spot), the circle doesn't appear in ... MoreNighttime photography - get rid of the FLASH PROBLEM Longer Battery Life - It lasts 7 hrs. 20 mins of about 5 hrs of use.

I was able to determine it is from the flash. If I disable the flash and use my own light source (headband LED light bar/spot), the circle doesn't appear in the photo and the photos are great. If I take a photo at dawn without the flash again, the photos are, again, very nice, nevertheless, the flash sucks. I am required to take photos throughout my shift as part of my duties at work, I am fortunate that my boss & the client do not care about the circles of distortion in the least so for work purposes the camera problem is only a problem for me personally. Grrrr. The camera does perform exceptionally well in daylight and low light without the flash, so I guess that's a consolation. I haven't had a clear night to take a moon shot yet. I am saddened by the fact that my friends who have the same cellphone do not suffer from the same issue mine has. I also noticed the battery life is nearly as bad as my old phone. The battery lasts as long as my shift along with my commute so it could be worse. I simply have it plugged into the charger as much as possible. I am disappointed. I was so looking forward to the awesome camera photos of the S20 fe that my friend & coworker have but somehow, I got a somewhat defective unit, dissatisfied and to be honest, after so looking forward to finally getting a cellphone with a good camera, I admit I am a little heartbroken. If you could send me a replacement while I continue to use mine for work and then once the replacement is doing what my job requires I could then send back the defective one so as not to have an interruption in use, I would really appreciate that, however, I hardly expect that from any seller as it would be a rare act/accommodation. The 3 photos on the left are with the flash, the 2nd photo from the right is with my own light source and the 5th is without the flash and with just my car's headlights at dusk. I guess I have to bring my own light source wherever I go... :/

Replaced my S10 with the S20, as it is the latest samsung S series with expandable memory. The tray for putting in the memory card is not 100% obvious and different from samsung page and previous models, but it is more sturdy, and less fiddley than the old one once you realise the card goes underneath.Everything is better than the S10 as you would expect. Better camera, better battery, slightly bigger, everything else as I would expect. I mostly use it for audio books, streaming music to headphones using bluetooth, looking up info online when out and about, and occasional movie watching in bed when I can't sleep.Serious net surfing on it is not what I use it for though, so cannot comment on that, I use a PC at home for that stuff.This is my third S series ... MoreReplaced my S10 with the S20, as it is the latest samsung S series with expandable memory.

Never had any issues with any of them.I only upgraded from my S10 because my kid dropped and finally damaged the screen on their S7. They will get the S10. Only a lack of memory slot in newer S series will stop me getting another S when it comes time to renew this one.
