S20 FE... still worth it?

[gray2018]

Who out there has the S20 FE? I could get the 8GB/256GB variant from Samsung for 370 which seems like a pretty good price. No interest in the S21 FE as it has no expandable memory.

Anyone who has this device, do you have any long term issues with it? It seems I have read so many people disliking this phone. Lots of negativity towards it.

I purchased my S20 FE (Verizon) some five months ago. I am totally satisfied with the phone. And I refuse to join the line of those who are always chasing the better mousetrap and spending lots of money to do so.

What can the S21 or S22 do that the S20 FE cannot? A few more pixels on photographs? Is that worth shelling out a lot of money for?

Yes, I believe - - especially at the reduced price - - the S20 FE is a wise purchase.

Honestly, the S22 and S21 are downgrades for me considering no micro SD card support. And I would say, no, it isn't worth extra money. Considering that the 370 dollar S20 FE 8GB/256GB is also new, that's also a major win.

I do love the flat screen and size of the display.

I have had mine for around 18 months, no issues at all. works great. I am not a power user but I use the phone. so far I really like it. No plans to upgrade for at least 18 months unless I get some crazy basically no cost deal before.

I can also get the S20 for 335 bucks from Samsung right now. That's an even better deal honestly. But I will see what happens. Only thing I wish about the standard S20 was the screen was a bit bigger, say around 6.4 inches. The screen on the S20 FE is perfectly sized.

My brother-in-law has had the S29 FE since its launch, I believe, and he really likes it!

I'd watch some reviews and see what you like about the device. Try to see if you can find it on display in the store. Don't worry so much about the negativity! If it works for you, go for it!
