In my experience, Nationwide 5G is actually worse than LTE unless you have excellent signal strength. So much so that Verizon turned off the 5G display in the latest April 1st software update on my unlocked S20 FE. It is *less* bad now. I still lock my phone to band 13 most of the time I'm in...

Yeah it's pretty bad. They supposedly turned it off manually on their end, but the 5G icon still appears. They also sent me a new sim card...and I installed it, but it told me that I need a new plan to use it. Being on the grandfathered unlimited plan, I just went ahead and decided that is a no...

Not mine. Of course it's unlocked. I do hope it fixes the problem that I'm having...the "'5'G" is way laggier than the LTE+ ever was in the locations I most frequent.

Maybe it's kind of mellowed out with today's software update. I can't know for sure because my S10e has gone off and been accepted into the land of refurbished devices. AKA Texas. I hope the person who ends up with that phone appreciates the flawless screen that I never let get burned in over...

You're correct. It's perfect on Photos. I hope they correct it on the rest of the UI asap because I really think the screen looks awful as it is.

I don't have a color calibrated monitor for comparison, but I will devise a comparison test and report back later. I traded laterally up from the S10e because Samsung gave me $400 trade in for my 19 month old phone (more than half what I paid for it), and also $70 promotional credit which...

The problem is that I take a lot of photos with my phone for work, and I can't properly adjust the photos on the fly without a color calibrated screen.

You can't adjust it to be sufficiently not green (it gets about 15% less bad at maximum ungreen). If they're all green, then I will have to return it. The S10e has about as perfectly color calibrated screen as is possible, so it is not something that I would be able to tolerate after being...

Just wondering if anyone else has this issue with their S20 FE? The smaller phone is my S10e, and both devices are set for Natural color mode and the same manual brightness. Just trying to decide whether to return it or exchange it.

I got mine yesterday as well. Everything is working very well and super smooth overall. Seems even snappier than it was (not that it's been even slightly sluggish more than 3 times since release date), but I think that's mostly the new animations.

That looks just like at least half of all amoled screen Verizon Certified Like New™ replacement phones! Agreed, get a new one. Also, use night mode (it's in the pull down with two fingers quick settings menu) as much as possible to minimize burn-in.

To go back, you swipe up from where the back button would be if there was a back button. To go home, you swipe up from where the home button would be if there was a home button. To access recent apps, you swipe up from where the recent apps button would be if there was a recent apps button. It's...

I don't like Samsung's implementation of the gestures.

The bar around the navigation buttons at the bottom of the screen (the 3 bars, squircle, and arrow). I don't care for Samsung's implementation of the buttonless navigation at all, :-( so hopefully I can figure out how to change the bar color to at least be black at night or something.

I'm quite pleased with mine (256 unlocked running on Verizon). It's wicked fast and it is the first phone I've used since my palm Centro that runs cool. The battery is good so far. It's not as comfortable in the hand as my GS7, it's definitely more square on the back. I do not like the on screen...
