The Galaxy S20 FE has a ton of impressive specs given its affordable price tag. It's powered by the Snapdragon 865 processor, has 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and three rear cameras for taking great photos. With a retail cost of just $700, it's all great stuff.
One of the other highlight specs is the 4,500 mAh battery, which on paper, should allow for excellent endurance. In real-world use, though, does it deliver the goods?

I run 120Hz, adaptive brightness, typical mixed usage with a slight weight towards gaming, but am usually in excellent...

I think I can confidently say S20 FE's battery life is excellent. I've pretty much settled into my routine with this phone and this is what I've gotten the past week. - 7am to 11pm. 5 hours of SOT with 45% left in battery - Don't play games, but mostly Youtube, social media, texting, email, music streaming, web browsing and google news feed.
