Is this the price of the new Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition?

We keep getting hints that the Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition is inching closer to its launch. The latest leak comes all the way from Slovakia, where one of the country’s mobile operators has already confirmed the price of the new “budget-friendly” version of the Galaxy S20.

It seems that the new Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition will be available for purchase starting at €699. Slovakian mobile operator Orange posted the phone’s price on its official website before the phone’s possible launch, which is expected to take place next week, on September 23, when Samsung will host the new Galaxy Unpacked For Every Fan event.

The listing was taken down after a while, but you can still follow the link in case you’re curious. The image listed on Orange’s website wasn’t even an official render, since it was an old render that was previously released by @evleaks. The listing also confirmed some of the phone’s hardware specs, which include the display, camera, and battery.

Now, if you’re not familiar with the possible specs of the Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition, we will put you up to date. The device is expected to include a 65.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a 2400×1080 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate that you won’t find in the upcoming iPhone 12 lineup. You would also find Gorilla Glass 3 and two processors powering the show. The first processor would be the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 for the US variant, while the international variant will include the Exynos 990 chipset.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE would also come in 5G and LTE configurations, with 6GB RAM and 128GB of storage space. The phone’s triple camera setup will include a 12MP main sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide, and an 8MP telephoto, and you will find the largest sensor in the front, as it will pack a 32MP selfie camera and a 4,500mAh battery that will hopefully keep your phone going throughout the day.

The new Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition appears on Geekbench with an Exynos processor

It seems that we are getting an international version for the new Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition. Previous leaks and rumors only mentioned a device with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor. Still, the latest information found at Geekbench shows a new version of the Galaxy S20 FE with an Exynos 990 chipset.

A new Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition has been spotted at Geekbench. This new device appears with the SM-G780F model designation, and it includes an Exynos 990 processor. This new leak also suggests that we will get the option to get 8GB RAM, as the previous Snapdragon-powered Galaxy S20 FE had appeared with 6GB RAM. There’s still no clue as to when Samsung will launch this new phone, but rumors hint a Q4 2020 launch. Rumors also suggest that we will get a triple camera setup with a 12MP primary, a 12MP ultrawide and an 8MP telephoto, a 4,500mAh battery, and an IP68 water and dust resistance. It is also believed that it will be available in 5G support and a 4G-only variant.

Galaxy S20 FE leak gives us our first glimpse of Samsung’s next budget flagship

In the past few weeks, we’ve come across multiple reports regarding an upcoming budget flagship from Samsung called the Galaxy S20 FE, where the ‘FE’ likely stands for ‘Fan Edition.’ Now, the ever-reliable tipster Evan Blass has shared a render (via XDA-Developers) of what he claims to be the Galaxy S20 FE.

From the front, the device looks more similar to the mid-range Galaxy A51 rather than a Galaxy S20 variant. But that is not surprising as the Galaxy S20 FE will be cheaper than the vanilla Galaxy S20, which means Samsung is cutting some corners in the aesthetics as well as the internal hardware department.

As per previous leaks, the Galaxy S20 FE will pack a 120Hz display and its IP68-certified build will offer water and dust resistance as well. A 4,500mAh battery will reportedly keep the lights on. If the leaks turn out to be true, Samsung Galaxy S20 FE will hit the shelves in October and will follow in the footsteps of the Galaxy S10 Lite.

It's only fair to share...Share on RedditShare on FacebookShare on Google+Tweet about this on TwitterPin on PinterestShare on Tumblr

We keep getting more and more information about the upcoming Galaxy S20 Lite or the Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition. Rumors suggest that this device may launch in October with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and a 120Hz display. Now, we receive a new rumor that gives us the device’s battery capacity.

According to a report from the Dutch website GalaxyClub, the Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition may have a huge 4,500mAh battery under the hood. This device is supposed to include the EB-BG781ABY model battery cell, which would give us the same battery capacity as the Galaxy S20+. Further, it is also believed that it will pack a 12MP primary sensor, a 12MP ultrawide, and an 8MP telephoto sensor with 3X optical zoom. We would also find an IP68 rating in both 4G and 5G versions, with red, white, green, and red color options. The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE is also expected to come with a $752 price tag, but let’s not forget that all of these are just rumors, and anything can change before the device officially launches.

Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition aka S20 Lite will arrive in October

This year we got the S10 Lite and the Note 10 Lite at CES but, it looks like Samsung doesn’t want to wait too much this time around. According to a new Korean report we could be getting a new Galaxy S20 Lite as soon as October. The report claims that Samsung is working on a 3-month continuous phone launch strategy where the Note 20 will arrive in August, the Fold 2 will hit the shelves in September and we could be getting this S20 Lite in October. Another report claims that this phone might actually be called the Galaxy S20 Fan Edition, which just sounds a little fancier. This phone will reportedly come in LTE and 5G skews and will run One UI 2.5 over Android 10.

Microsoft is permanently shutting down its retail stores

I’ve got to hand it to Microsoft for reaching profitability again in such a staggering way, but I’m not gonna deny that the controversial decisions are not my favorite, like killing Windows Phone and writing off the Nokia deal. Well today we have another one. Microsoft decided to close their retail stores temporarily back when the pandemic started but, apparently they want to keep it that way. In a major strategy shift, Microsoft just announced that they’ll be permanently closing almost all of their retail stores across the globe and they will be relying only on their online sales and their services. As for the jobs, we don’t know if they will be able to keep all of them but, Microsoft says that their retail team will “continue to serve customers from the Microsoft corporate facilities or even remotely”. They also say that they will “re-imagine” the space in their stores but we don’t exactly know what that means just yet.

Google Pixel 4a nears launch as it appears on FCC

Even if the Google Pixel 4a isn’t talked about as much lately, it still pops up in the rumor mill just enough for us to not completely forget about it. Now, it was just listed on the FCC which usually means that we’re getting close to a launch date. From that listing we got three different model numbers, one for the US and the other two are most likely for other parts of the world. Now we also have some case renders for the phone that show the more symmetrical bezels we’re expecting, the hole for the stove camera and even the punch hole at the front. The phone on the case render is Blue but, we still don’t know if that variant will be announced as it might’ve gotten scrapped. We’re still hoping for a July 13 launch so we’ll keep you posted as, Pixel 5 leaks should start coming soon.

OnePlus Nord will feature a dual front camera setup of 32MP + 8MP

We’ve been getting a lot of teasers and leaks for the upcoming OnePlus Nord. Now, a new development from Android Central talks about the selfie cameras, yes, cameras. We were expecting this phone to come with a centered single punch hole but according to this leak, it’ll bring dual front facing cameras. These will consist of a main 32MP sensor along with an 8MP secondary, but we don’t know exactly what the secondary camera will do. The leak mentions that the two cameras will come like the ones on the Huawei P40, at the top left corner. We’re expecting this phone to bring a Snapdragon 765, 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, with a starting price around $330.

Story of the day:

New leaks give us a 4G iPhone 12 starting at $549

iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max could arrive with 120Hz displays

And finally for the hottest news today let’s talk iPhone 12 and two very important things… new perks.. And what you’ll have to pay for a specific variant we didn’t think would happen. We have some new leaks from Ice Universe but, they’re actually not for a Samsung device, sort off. We know Samsung provides Apple’s displays, especially when it comes to the Pro models. Well, according to him and “a reliable source”, the iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max have basically the maximum 120Hz refresh rate. Some iOS 14 beta users have found an accessibility setting that limits the frame rate of their device to 60fps, hinting that future iPhones will be capable of higher refresh rate. Now, we don’t know if these iPhones will bring variable refresh rate but, that’s most likely not going to be the case for this year. Instead we’ll apparently get Apple’s ProMotion feature which dynamically adjusts the display to the movement of content for fluid scrolling, greater responsiveness and smoother motion. We also have a new leak from Twitter, though the source I’ve never heard of, and the leak is also funky.. so we have a claim that we will still get LTE versions for the iPhone 12 and 12 Max (Not Pros), and if we do, these will cost as low as $549. The 12 Max will cost $649 and the 5G prices will be $649 for the 12 and $749 for the 12 Max, pretty much like Jon leaked before.

Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition aka S20 Lite will arrive in October

Earlier this week, rumors emerged that Samsung is preparing to launch an affordable version of the Galaxy S20 and might call it the Galaxy S20 Lite, following in the footsteps of the Galaxy S10 Lite. As per fresh information coming out of Samsung’s domestic market, the affordable Galaxy S20 sibling could hit the shelves as early as October.

An ETNews report claims that Samsung is working on a 3-month continuous phone launch strategy. In accordance with it, the Galaxy Note 20 will arrive in August, the Galaxy Fold 2 will hit the shelves in September, followed by the Galaxy S20 Lite in October. However, another report claims that the Galaxy S20 Lite might actually debut as the Galaxy S20 Fan Edition.

As the name makes it abundantly clear, the Galaxy S20 Fan Edition aka Galaxy S20 Lite will make some concessions in the hardware department to keep the price in check. The phone will reportedly come in two variants, a 4G-only and 5G version, and will boot the One UI 2.5 skin based on Android 10.
