Picking up insights from existing users and creating devices is nothing new for the smartphone manufacturers but not every player has the right skill sets, deep understanding of what may finally click, and bring products to the market that offers people top-end specifications for less.
Samsung leads the pack when it comes to speaking to fans, taking their feedback, and translating those inputs into products that change the dynamics of the industry.
The Indian consumers are left spoilt for choices — from entry-level to mid-segment, premium, and even the super-premium — but only a few smartphones leave indelible marks across the spectrum and the premium flagship Galaxy S20 series is one such fine example.
The series has now given birth to a new member called Galaxy S20 Fan Edition (FE) which includes innovations Galaxy S20 fans love the most, at an accessible price point, starting at $49,999 in India.
To create the 6.5-inch Galaxy S20 FE, Samsung took select features of the Galaxy S20 series, such as the super-smooth scrolling display, an AI-powered camera, advanced chipset, hyper-fast connectivity, all-day battery, expandable storage, with a streamlined premium design.
The end product is something that challenges the top-end OnePlus 8 series devices (including the newly-launched 8T and Mi10) and takes on iPhone 11 and XR.
Let us see if Galaxy S20 FE Edition (Cloud Mint color) can woo Indian fans.
