Samsung is planning on launching a
successor to the Galaxy S10 Lite. Reports have said the upcoming phone will go
by the name Galaxy S20 FE (Fan Edition). Now, more details of the phone have
surfaced in a fresh leak.
According to Twitter user @Boby25846908,
the Galaxy S20 FE is “confirmed”. This should mean the device has been greenlit
and will enter into production. He goes on to reveal that Samsung is
considering using the Snapdragon 865 processor rather than the Snapdragon 855 or
Snapdragon 765G.
The Snapdragon 855 is the chipset inside
the Galaxy S10 Lite and it is surprising Samsung even considered it for its
successor in the first place. The source says Samsung is considering the
more-powerful Snapdragon 865 for the Galaxy S20 FE so that it can be positioned
as a competitor to the upcoming OnePlus 8T.
Other than the chipset, the Galaxy S20 FE
will also have a flat sAMOLED display with a 1080p resolution and a 60Hz
refresh rate. The refresh rate is not certain according to the source. The
phone will also have the 50MP Samsung ISOCELL GN1 (not GD1) as its primary rear
camera. The launch date for the Galaxy S20 FE is said to be between September
and October. Sadly, there is no info on how much the phone will cost when it
launches.
We advise you to take the info with a
grain of salt as it is not verified and Samsung may decide to change some of
the features of the phone.
