S20 FE, who's thinking about it?

[BotanicalStig]

You would think that. I wouldn't even care really if it was this late but Amazon has no cases that would even ship right now either. Best Buy has zero cases listed just a screen protector. I'm at the point of just going to a T Mobile store and buying a case.

The situation with cases for this phone is very strange to me. None of the big names have any, and Amazon had a very limited stock. I was able to get a caseology case for the time being, and some clear one (looked like spigen with a white design laid in).

I will say neither of those cases were listed as in stock. So if you try ordering some from Amazon you may be surprised. My spigen case order sat 2 or 3 days before I canceled it.

Does anyone know where to find the voicemail app? I'm using the unlocked version on Verizon.

How much do you all notice the 120hrz refresh rate compared to 60? I have switched back and forth. I think I can tell a difference, but from how I use my phone, it is minor (maybe very minor). I have it set to 60 now to save on battery.

I'm just curious what others experience with the high refresh rate screen.

Like others, my case was delayed so I'm going to be very careful with this phone.

I'm never worried on battery so I'm always on the fast lane lol

Most people really notice it and like it. For some reason, I do not and if I did it certainly didn't make much difference. Perhaps my 50 year-old eyes are showing their age. I really don't notice QHD being better than FHD either so it's likely my eyes or something.

check with Verizon they have quite a few cases and they have their shell holster combo as well which I'm seriously thinking of adding to have as a backup for the Samsung case

Anyone order from B&H and get shipping notice? Site says pre-order and my actual order shows back order...supposed to launch today right?

 

[david61983]

We never found out if the unlocked version has UW?

 

[bkdodger2]

How do we find out? I'd give it a go if anyone has suggestions..my sim is not on the phone right yet ...

On mine the model number for the unlocked versions specifically includes the UW to be compatible with Verizon's band

Can any of show screen shot in setting >about phone >software page ?

Yes sir

 

[david61983]

Where is the model number showing UW?

On your actual phone, or on the invoice when you bought it. If UW is actually on the handset itself, I think there's our answer...and a big question to VZW becomes, why the hell are you eventually charging people 50 bucks more?

 

[KPMcClave]

Obviously, the best way would be for someone who actually has access to VZW 5G to see if they can use it on the unlocked variant of the phone. No better test than that.

Although, if it's really in the actual model number, I'd say it better work on VZW 5G.

The model number is on the top part the main "About" page. If the UW is in the model number, it should show there.

It won't be in the "Software" section.

Now that I think about it, he's actually referring to the model name, not number. The model number is simply SM-G781U, right?

 

[mustang7757]

Yes sir

Thank you !
