Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G price slashed by $100 in the US
Samsung didn’t have the best of its years with the Galaxy S20 series. We don’t know whether the lower than expected sales were due to the COVID-19 pandemic or due to their high prices, but the devices weren’t among the best-selling Galaxy phones. The devices also suffered from issues with auto-focus and the challenging 108MP camera on the Galaxy S21 Ultra. In September 2020, the brand decided to bring a new affordable version of the Galaxy S20 dubbed Galaxy S20 FE. The device was a cheaper alternative available in 4G and 5G variants and conquered users across the world. For that reason, it’s natural to see Samsung preparing a sequel. While the new device does not come, consumers can enjoy the available unit with a hefty discount in the United States.
