Best value for money.
This phone is hands down the best value phone money can buy. It has everything you need in a phone for such a low price. The 120hz screen is unmatched and I can go back to 60hz now. The screen overall is very good and is a beautiful 6.5 inch oled. Speakers are loud and very clear. It also has IP68 water and dust resistance which is a really nice bonus. Along with NFC and wireless and reverse wireless charging which are flagship features are on this phone. Also the 5G capabilities is nice future proofing and the 865 processor is fantastic. Cameras are also brilliant if that's what you look out for. Overall, everything about this phone screams flagship and you get that all for an incredibly low price!
Great phone!
Very happy with this phone. Considering the specs that are often only found in much more expensive models it is excellent value for money, It looks great, feels really good in the hand and has a nice weight to it, it performs and functions flawlessly and copes with multitasking seamlessly. The screen is super and the sound/speakers are really good. I don’t use my phone for gaming nor do I watch many videos but I use it for navigation, communication obviously including email and internet in general and I find the battery very decent, lasting well over a day, even on 120hz. Obviously there are lots of specs and functions I haven’t covered but I like it a lot and no regrets whatsoever.
Absolutely wonderful
So happy. What a wonderful phone and great value for money. I bought the cloud lavender and it is so pretty. The phone is fantastic and takes beautiful pictures. There is nothing I don't love.
Can't complain, high end specs for a fair price
Bought this on the Black Friday and I'm happy so far. I noticed people complaining about touch display glitches and about the accuracy of the fingerprint sensor. None of that has been an issue for me. I found the on-screen fingerprint sensor more convenient than the one on the back of my previous phone, a S9+. I've configured a lower display rate and the battery gets close to 20%/30% every other night. So I've been using the phone for two days on a single charge. Full disclaimer: I'm on wifi most of the day and only occasionally play lightweight games on the phone. I thought the front camera notch would be more annoying but it has been ok. I took a picture of a darkish room with the night camera it looked bright as day.
Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition Snapdragon - Cloud Navy SM-G780GZBDXNZ review
The ideal entry point into Samsung’s premium range, packing in all the best features of the Galaxy S20 while also cutting the superfluous features that only serve to increase the price. It offers solid performance from the camera, all the benefits of Samsung’s OneUI, and a screen that can’t be beat.- Incredible screen that owes a lot to the 120Hz refresh rate, Premium specs, including a top-tier chipset, All the best parts of the S20 for a slightly lower price, No Bixby Button
- Premium price, far from what you’d consider “affordable”, Battery life not best in class

When the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G was announced, I have to admit I was confused. I wasn’t sure what this device was all about and where it fits into the already crowded Samsung mobile space.- Very nice design, I like that the screen isn't curved and the display is flat, Nice build quality even with glastic, Good software experience, Good performance, Very good camera for this price range, Great battery life, Outstanding value for feature set
- Speakers aren't great, Camera's low light performance isn't the best

A PhoneArena review of Samsung's value-for-money price champion Galaxy S20 FE (Fan Edition) as we check out its day and night time camera samples and zoom quality, battery life, and the interface performance.- Excellent value for the money, Impressive two-day battery life, Bright and flat display with high 120Hz refresh rate, 3 years of Android version updates and up to 3 years warranty, Good pictures and video quality, Very good stereo sound recording and playback, Durable housing in a variety of matte...
- The 5G model is only available in a 6GB RAM/128GB storage version, The screen colors are a bit on the cold and saturated side, Display is Gorilla Glass 3 only but it does come with protector pre-installed
Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition Snapdragon - Cloud Navy SM-G780GZBDXNZ review
By trimming the fat from its highest-end Galaxy handset, Samsung inadvertently made one of the best Android phones of 2020.- Competitive price. Large display with a buttery smooth 120-Hz refresh rate. Day-long battery life. Versatile cameras. Speedy performance. Support for 5G. Wireless charging. Water resistance. The plastic back means one less area to shatter after a drop.
- The fingerprint sensor is unreliable. The cameras over-saturate and aren't quite as good as the Pixel 5's.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G delivers all the phone performance most people need at a price more people can afford.- Fast processor, Excellent cameras, Long battery life
- No Space Zoom, Not the absolute best low-light camera performance
Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition Snapdragon - Cloud Navy SM-G780GZBDXNZ review
The high points are undoubtedly the refresh rate, chipset, and cameras, but most other aspects impress too. Really the only significant issue is the phone’s largely plastic build – which at this price isn’t really acceptable, but when it’s allowed for so much tech to be packed in it’s a lot more...- Smooth, high-quality 120Hz screen, Excellent triple-lens camera, Plenty of power
- Plastic back, Only FHD+ resolution, Middling 6GB of RAM
