Samsung Galaxy S20 FE gets thoroughly leaked in two videos

Samsung's Galaxy S20 FE, an upcoming, affordable variant of the company's S20 flagship, is a mystery no more.

In the past couple of days, it has been analyzed and shown from all sides in two videos.

One, published last week, is a hands-on video by Jimmy is Promo (via The Verge), with a working device directly compared to the Galaxy S20 and the Galaxy S20+.

According to the video, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE will have a 6.5-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It'll have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor, 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, a triple rear camera with 12/12/8-megapixel sensors and 3x zoom, a 32-megapixel selfie shooter, a 4,500mAh battery with wireless charging, and IP68 water resistance.

Some compromises were made; for example, it has a plastic back and slightly bigger bezels than its S20 brethren. There's also no headphone jack, which is slightly disappointing but not very surprising since Samsung has omitted it on most of its newer smartphones.

Now, we know the video above is the real deal because an official promo video of the device has been leaked on Twitter. The only thing we don't know at this point is the price, which is very important given that this phone will very likely be positioned as a "cheap" Galaxy S20.

Samsung Galaxy S20 FE will be officially announced at a Samsung Unpacked event on Sept. 23.
