A few days ago, courtesy Steve Hemmerstoffer a.k.a. OnLeaks and Pricebaba, hi-res renders of the upcoming smartphone were leaked.
The renders show a Samsung mid-range smartphone-inspired form. Allegedly, the Galaxy S20 FE will come with a frosted plastic back and a metallic chassis with chrome painting similar to Samsung’s mid-range smartphones. On the front, the smartphone will sport a flat AMOLED display with a punch hole and slightly thick bezels. Moreover, the Galaxy S20 FE, like other phones in the S20 series, will not come with a headphone jack. Instead, it will use the USC Type-C connected flanked on one side by the speaker grille.
Based on other leaks and rumors, the smartphone will sport a 12 MP triple sensor rear camera. Previously it was reported that the upcoming FE smartphone would feature an ISOCELL GN1 sensor as the primary sensor. However, the rumors were disregarded by a famous tipster ice universe soon after.
