Under the hood, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 2022 Edition draws power from the Snapdragon 865 chipset paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage. There's also a 4,500 mAh battery, just like the first-gen Samsung Galaxy S20 FE. The details of the fast-charging support and adapter details are still under wraps.

More importantly, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 2022 Edition gets a triple-camera setup at the rear with a 12MP primary shooter with OIS support. The other shooters include a 12MP ultra-wide lens and an 8MP telephoto camera with OIS as well. Plus, Samsung has included a 32MP camera in the front for selfies and video calling.

Some of the other features include an IP68 rating, an in-display fingerprint sensor, and runs Android 12 OS with the One UI custom skin. To note, the first-gen Samsung Galaxy S20 FE debuted in 2020 with the AKG headset. GSMArena reports that the headset is missing from the latest Fan Edition launch.
