Samsung accidentally mentions the Galaxy S20 FE on

It has been several months that the media regularly evoke the Galaxy S20 FE or "Fan Edition, an affordable version of Galaxy S20 launched by Samsung earlier this year. The Galaxy S20 FE is somewhat the successor of the Galaxy S10 Lite , but with a different naming scheme.

And if for the moment, Samsung has still not made this model official, the manufacturer has almost confirmed its existence, via a mention accidental on one of its websites. Indeed, as reported by our colleagues at Phonearena.com, the name, which was already mentioned in rumors, recently appeared on a Samsung page on its website for Bulgaria.

This mention the Galaxy S20 FE, but also the Galaxy S20 FE 5G, is thisduring an error since at the time of writing this article, these mentions have already been removed. But a screenshot of the website before the modification was kept by the Internet Archive.

Unfortunately, this only confirms the existence of these models, but does not give us many details regarding their datasheets. But these are expected to be high-end smartphones with a few concessions to keep the price lower.

A Snapdragon 865 processor and sacrifices on the cameras?

According to rumors, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE is expected to feature the same Snapdragon 865 processor as the S20, S20 + and 20 Ultra. This means that at the performan levelThese, this affordable version will hardly be subject to concessions. However, Samsung would equip this new smartphone with a more modest camera combination. The S20 FE could have a 12-megapixel main camera, an 8-megapixel telephoto lens with x3 optical zoom, as well as a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle. On the front, there would be a 32-megapixel camera for selfies.

An alternative located between the premium segment and the mid-range?

In addition to cameras, Samsung could also sacrifice the design of the screen. The S20 FE might have a screen with a rate of 120Hz like that of the S20, but this screen might have a simpler (and therefore less expensive) design than that of the Galaxy S20. And as for the price, it could be 20% lower than the Galaxy S20. The presentation could take place in October.

But of course, at the moment it is just rumors and therefore all of its information.Regarding the possible characteristics of the Galaxy S20 FE, we must still consider with caution. In any case, this model could be positioned between the high-end and the mid-range and could allow Samsung fans to access some of its premium features by purchasing a more affordable model.

The However, competition will be fierce this year as there are many interesting models in the mid-range segment. In addition to Google's Pixel 4a, there is also the OnePlus Nord, which has affordable prices, but also interesting data sheets. However, the main advantage of the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE over these cheaper models will be the presence of the Snapdragon 865 processor, which is a guarantee of performance.
