Samsung’s unannounced Galaxy S20 “Fan Edition” (FE) has been leaked in new renderers of Evan Blass. A series of leaks over the past months of the likes of SamMobile, Ice Universe, en The Elec suggest that the phone will be a cheaper alternative to Samsung’s Galaxy S20, similar to the Galaxy S10 Lite that it announced earlier this year. The latest renderings, after which are shown below XDA Developers, shows the Galaxy S20 FE in six colors: blue, mint green, white, red, pink and orange.
The Galaxy S20 Fan Edition seems to have a very similar design to the existing Galaxy S20, as you would expect. Around the front there is a hole-punch cut for its selfie camera (which previous reports have a 32-megapixel sensor) and around the back there appears to be a triple camera array housed in a rectangular camera bump. A report of The Elec has claimed that these consist of a 12-megapixel wide-angle camera, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide, and an 8-megapixel telephoto camera with a 3x optical zoom.
The renders of Evan Blass look broadly similar to a series of unofficial renders published over the weekend by Pricebaba based on information provided by tipster Onleaks. Pricebaba reports that the phone’s screen will be between 6.4 and 6.5 inches large, which would make it slightly larger than the standard 6.2-inch Galaxy S20, but smaller than the 6.7-inch S20 Plus . This screen is rumored to have a refresh rate of 120Hz, and the phone will presumably be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 with a 4,500mAh battery.
If the “Fan Edition” moniker sounds familiar, it’s because Samsung used it earlier when it re-released the Galaxy Note 7 in 2017. The handset had a smaller battery than the original Note 7, after the original device had to be recalled when the battery began to suffer from problems with too much overheating and in some cases even found fire.
The latest leak offers no new information on when or where the Galaxy S20 Fan Edition might be released, however The Elec previously reported that Samsung was able to release it in October this year for 900,000 won (about $ 759). That compares to a base price of $ 999.99 for the original Galaxy S20.
