So i shattered my screen and I was shopping around for a replacement. Then i notice i could get a new S20 FE 5G for not much more.

I honestly cant break away from this model. Its still a premium phone with premium specs WHILE STILL KEEPING EXPANDABLE STORAGE

Is there anything like it now? I have an insane library of photos and videos on my SD card that ive been building over the years, its honestly the only thing keeping me from buying newer phones…

What’s out there today?

    Sony Xperia phones still all have headphone jack and SD card slot.

    The new 5 series is coming soon and looks great. The Xperia 1 is a bit pricey. The 10 Series is budget so you might find it underpowered.

    Samsung A54 you’ll also find underpowered if you’re used to flagship.

    If you get the S20 be aware that Samsung is not beginning One UI 6 to it, neither Android updates apart from security updates.

        The two phones are very close. The CPU in the S20 is about 30% stronger overall but it’s a small difference. You’ll easily be able to play your game.

    Do what I did and just get the screen fixed man. The s20 fe is such a good phone, I can’t justify the cost of a new model when this one is more than fine. Little to no battery or performance drop after 2 years.

        Ah fair enough man. I’ll tell you my problem, is that as much as I’d like to try other brands like Sony or whatever, my watch, earbuds, and TVs are all Samsung and everything works pretty well together (for the most part), so I’m hesitant to potentially fuck that up.
