Yup, no headphone jack. I think they probably missed it in the listing, I have a feeling they will have the type-C earphones.

i have seen a coupla unboxing, with both variants of 6+128 and 8+256, no earphone. if ada mmg best <3

1 more FE problem...the bezel....i think the A71 have a smaller top and side bezel compare to the FE right...just because its snapdragon s series, samsung can get away with almost anything....
*
for me, i rarely see the back of my phone since it has a case, so i dont need it to be glass. and i really dislike the curve edge at the side, sometimes a disturbance when my other fingers was touching the screen while holding it. gorilla 3? doesnt really means much with a screen protector. importantly its SD, as i previously own a s8+, after 2 years, it was struggling, drains a lot of battery and turns the phone so hot, that its really uncomfortable to use.

So despite the other short comings on FE, it is the perfect phone for me. as it has water resistance of rating IP68 compared to other midrange, even better for me to use on my bike when the rain suddenly comes. so samsung has answered my prayer for with S20 FE. 9 oct is so near and it yet it felt so far away.

yea S20 FE ticks alot of boxes..especially when the price drops.. Plastic back isn't really a big issue. Hope they up the fast charging to 30-40 watts for future FEs laugh.gif
*
yeah, this round of pre-order is not attractive at all. but since im on a temporary phone A10s with 2+32, it is killing me lol. else it would be wise to wait for the price to drop. after all, i'll estimate it's value should be around rm2800. thats my 2 cents.

Do you happen to know there’s a demo unit available already? Wanna try the touch and feel.

most probably a day before the pre-order (9/10) you will see samsung will start setting the demo units in their booths.

Look like exynos is a not go.
Now planning S20 FE or S20+ (snapdragon).
Just worry if buy S20+(snapdragon)(korea set), will I still get all the update?
If there is a problem buying non malaysia set, might be stick to S20 FE
*
i'm in the same situation like you choosing between s20 (SD import set) and s20 FE. ended up i went with the FE. after all the SD import set also around the same price of rm3200 (8+256), if u can overlook the other short comings of FE.

QUOTE(emino @ Sep 30 2020, 10:47 AM)
I actually like the bezel and feels its thin enough. Takde asyik nak tertekan things at the edge. And I dont like glass back, this design looks more fun and practical, esp when it comes to casing and screen protector.

Last time with S10 also I went with S10e, which has a flat screen with a bit bezel and more fun colors.
*
same! im temporary using A10s now, the flat screen is really easy to use and no need extra efforts to find a good screen protector that will not goes conflict with the case. yeah the edge touching is really annoying.

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ Sep 30 2020, 11:27 AM)
but then maybe corvid. Maybe they wanted to release earlier when the price of S20 is still quite high. Then this FE would make sense. But now S20 prices have dropped. This FE becomes overpriced.
*
i guess its because the flagship s20's exynos has lesser demands, hence the price drops like crazy. most "distributed" sellers do not want to keep stocks, so that they can roll the money to buy in newer model phones with faster turn over. i believe they even lost quite a bit of sales towards those AP (korea/USA) importers.

Based on Samsung past record, unlikely they will bring in SD variant to Malaysia...
Even if they bring it in, sure they will mark up the price
*
just saw in youtube, rumor has it that s21's exynos 1000 is very ambitious tat will beats qualcomm SD real hard... ouuuhhh spekulasi yg mantap ni.. but yeah, looks at FE's price so high just because SD.

Friday comes fast.. Been using my S8 while waiting for the new phone

yes friday come fast! rclxm9.gif i'm using A10s... struggling... 2.more.days.

by the way, Mi 10T Pro which cost at rm1999, early birds even got free Mi TV, might looks like a fierce contender to S20 FE. Almost similar specs with same SD chipsets mega_shok.gif

Mi 10T Pro:
Qualcomm SM8250 Snapdragon 865
Adreno 650
Front Gorilla Glass 5
Back Gorilla Glass 5
Refresh rate 144Hz
Dust/water resistant -

Internal 8GB RAM + 256GB
microSD card slot No

Front Cam 20MP
Back Cam Wide 108 MP
Ultra Wide 13 MP
Macro 5 MP

Battery 5000mAh
Fast charging 33W


S20 FE:
Qualcomm SM8250 Snapdragon 865
Adreno 650

Front Gorilla Glass 3
Back Glasstic
Refresh rate 120Hz
Dust/water resistant IP68 dust/water resistant

Internal 8GB RAM + 256GB
microSD card slot shared SIM slot

Front Cam 32MP
Back Cam Wide 12 MP
Ultra Wide 12 MP
Telephoto 8 MP

Battery 4500mAh
Fast charging 25W
Fast wireless charging 15W

by hardware, Mi 10T Pro really wins a lot. Almost tempted to cancel my pre-order S20 Fe hmm.gif

Mi 10T Pro use LCD screen (not AMOLED), less powerful loud speaker, no under screen fingerprint sensor, no IP68 and no wireless charging. If you are okay with the shortcoming, then up to  you bro
*
i guess you made a good point there, almost RM2.4k for those differences with quality customer service from samsung. S20 FE it is! i was tempted and my faith was tested, i shall repent.

Then tempted to buy S20+.. N20U. Now S20FE  biggrin.gif
*
same!! previously was still deciding whether to sell my s8+ because it always overheat and short on battery life (thanks to exynos), mana tau got stolen bangwall.gif so, got myself a temporary free telco phone, struggling and waited since S20+ then Note20, still not convinced until this FE rclxm9.gif 1.more.day+Shipping sigh.. wow Sony 1ii looks like a great phone!

Also Xiaomi phones have no OIS,  I noticed a huge difference when I scan mysejatera QR code vs my family members.  None of them have OIS in their phones, except for mine.  Huge speed diff biggrin.gif
*
yeah... my A10s practically feels like forever when scanning for mysejatera... like really forever as it cannot focus, keep blurring in and out while the ppl at the back breathing heavily behind me

I suspect that possible Samsung is rushing to release the phone without actually doing any final checking. Hope it won't happen to the phones that released here.

As long if its software, then it can always be fixed with later patch. If it's hardware...
