Samsung is reported to launch Galaxy S20 Fan Edition (FE), formerly known as Galaxy S20 Lite as the successor to Galaxy S10 Lite in October. The smartphone has leaked multiple times over the past few days revealing its features. A new report from South Korean now suggests it to retails for around $750 with triple camera setup.
Due to the poor sales of Galaxy S20 series on account of pandemic and increased cost, Samsung is reported to launch the cheaper Galaxy S20 FE much earlier than its successor. This handset is expected to start shipping in October after Galaxy Note 20 in August and Galaxy Z Fold 2 in September.
According to a new report by South Korean media The Elec (via SamMobile), the upcoming Galaxy S20 FE will feature a 12MP (primary) + 12MP (ultra-wide) + 8MP (3x telephoto) triple camera setup at the back. Whereas, on the front, the phone is said to sport a 32MP selfie camera.
Further, the report suggests the price of the device to be 900,000 South Korean Won, which is equivalent to $750. For those unaware, this phone’s predecessor, the Galaxy S10 Lite debuted for $100 cheaper at $650. Samsung is expected to ship 5 million units of this handset by the end of 2020.
The $100 prince increase from the previous phone seems more on first sight. But considering the Galaxy S20 FE (based on leaks) to come with IP68 certification, 120Hz refresh rate display, 3.3mm punch-hole, and Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, it is still a stellar deal.
