The new 4G-only Samsung Galaxy S20 FE was first spotted on the Wi-Fi Alliance database a few weeks back, but no one had any idea what makes this one different. Now, it’s no longer a mystery as this variant, going under the model number SM-G780G, will be powered by the Snapdragon 865 SoC.
Apart from the chipset change, the specifications remain exactly the same, and it even includes the MST chip so you can use Samsung Pay with it for cashless transactions. It’s said that there will be a Galaxy S21 FE as it’s in the works, which makes it a bit odd for them to release this variant. However, the company is most likely simply looking to bolster the sales of their devices.
