Samsung Galaxy S20 4G vs Samsung Galaxy S25 FE
Our Verdict: There's five years between the Galaxy S20 4G and the Galaxy S25 FE, so the Galaxy S25 FE is ahead on most things. The S20 4G has a noticeably higher-resolution main camera, 64MP against the S25 FE's 50MP, and only the S25 FE is a 5G phone; the S20 4G maxes out at 4G. The S25 FE has the bigger battery of the two, 4900mAh against 4000mAh, which usually means longer between charges, and the S25 FE has the bigger screen at 6.7" against 6.2", while the S20 4G has the sharper one at 566 PPI. If you're on the S20 4G, the S25 FE is a real step up, but only worth it if the changes above matter to you.
