Samsung Galaxy S20 FE

The Galaxy S20 FE was the cheapest option in Samsung’s lineup in 2020, and it remains a relatively thrifty way to get 5G access and hardware that won’t bog you down. It’s the same size and has most of the same hardware as the Galaxy S20+, and it comes in a spectrum of cool colors. You can often find it under $400 on some sites, and you can buy it unlocked or through your carrier. Note that the unlocked model has trouble supporting AT&T’s Wi-Fi calling and Verizon’s mmWave 5G despite the presence of bands. If you are on Verizon, buy the Galaxy S20 FE through the carrier.
