Design
Plastic backs on flagship phones are trending now, like the Samsung Galaxy A71. Certainly, when you hear plastic, you assume the device to be “Cheap” but this one is nothing of that sort!
In fact, it has a very premium feel and the right kind of heft. What makes the Samsung S20 FE body unique is that it does not register scratch or fingerprint as much as glass backs do.
The frames are aluminium plus the colour availability is perfect! On the right side of the phone is the volume Up and down button and Power button on an Aluminum frame. At the bottom is the Noise-canceling Mic, USB Type C port, and a speaker with a Sim tray + Noise-canceling Mic at the top.
Display
The beautiful smooth flat screen has a premium viewing experience. The 6.5” Super AMOLED display is bright, showcases incredibly rich, saturated colours and the viewing angles are superb.
