@@ChrisMartinez-cv4cl I had an s10e which was great then I upgraded to the Oneplus 7t. So far it's my favorite phone ever but after a year of use I'm tired of big phones.
I totally get it that's why I have the 4a. the only reason I avoid Samsung is because they're trying to create their own alternative ecosystem and I don't need two messaging apps two email apps etc on a phone.
In Portugal I bought the S20 FE 5G, with the Galaxy Buds+ and 4 months of youtube premium for 480€, while the Pixel 5 isn't even available in my country, it was a no brainer
@@feixas6961 same as I also received my S20 FE 4G Snapdragon with Buds+ and 2x Smartag. I only paid $450 for mine. It's a late buy so that contributes to the decreased in price too.
My Choice is The Galaxy S20 FE because of A Couple of Reasons: 1. The Screen 2. Performance 3. More Colors 4. Better Speakers & 5. The Wireless DEX (I Find DEX a Really Cool and Fun Operating System). ❤
My Choice is the Pixel Better camera Better Software Feature Drops Exclusive software features Day on OS updates Unlimited Photo upload Better build quality no plastic thinner bezels smaller lighter Gorilla Glass 6 Physical finger print sensor
I used the Pixel 3XL and the Pixel 4XL. I will be getting the Pixel 5 for me stock Android is the best. I really enjoy Googles products for my needs they are great.
Has to the Samsung S20FE by a mile. Better and faster and expandable UFS 3.1 storage vs old fixed UFS 2.1 on the Pixel, better chipset which becomes more noticeable over time, 120hz brighter screen on Samsung, bigger battery, and faster charging up to 25w, better colours, better sound, better cameras, (and only terrible digital zoom on Pixel) BTW, the battery can easily get through a day on 120hz. No need to worry about your battery life.
Thanks for highlighting sound quality which is often overlooked by reviewers who dismiss it with the sentiment that everyone uses ear/headphones (and even then there can be differences). As for the Pixel 5, you did not mention the unique and useful software additions: call hold and call screening, plus immediate OS updates and ongoing rollouts of even more useful features (not gimmicks) over the life of the phone.
@@903h00va That's subjective since security updates are given as fast on both phones. OS updates are kind of meaningless now since Google and Samsung drip feeds new features in their security updates.
In Canada, these phones are priced differently, with a $300 CAD difference between them. Even the price disparity between the 4A 5G and the 5 are closer in Canada ($679 vs $799). It's as if Google wants Canadians to choose the Pixel 5. ps. US residents would get the Pixel 5 for $580 USD if purchased in Canada
The S20 FE supports 25W wired charging and 15W wireless charging. This is even though the charger in the box is only 15W. Honestly, for $13 for the charger, I can't complain.
I've been a Google phone user since the Nexus 6P and this is the first time I've even considered a Samsung since my Samsung Moment in ~2010. On paper, it seems like a no brainer that the S20 FE is the superior device but I keep coming back to the clean, stock Android experience of a Pixel vs the bloated Samsung One UI
I'm probably going with the Pixel 5 because it's size is perfect for my hand and pocket with a large screen due to high screen to phone ratio. Also google software updates and OI--over the life of the phone-- is so much better than competitors. My only hesitation is the speaker quality.
Large screen, please dont make me laugh. 6 inch screen maybe sounds big ,but that 19.5:9 screen ratio maiking it the same narrow as 4.7 inch (16:9) iphone 6.
@@lucaspanasski331 it's about how it fits in the one hand and pocket for me and the useful software features that keep coming with google and pixel 5 such as the when placed on hold you can set the phone to alert you whjen the holder comes on the line instead of waiting around with the speaker on.....however, i've decided to wait for the next pixel iteration, holding on to my pixel 3
@@ShaneSymonds is the red really as dark as i see on the video? or is your background dark? I like to see dark red I have doubts for the red or the blue. if it is very dark red choice is red then .at 10.36 minute its nice color
I am a great user of Pixel phones (actually having the 3). I love small phones because I got tiny hands BUT I would like to try something with that FE 5G, with a big screen and stuff, also because its specs look more durable than the Pixel 5.
I got the S20 FE for $380 + silicone case + galaxy fit 2 + 6 months of spotify ÷ 6 months youtube premium with a pixel 3a trade in of $225. Samsung did it right this year with the fan edition.
I got my S20 FE for $149.99 after trade in, and price match from Amazon. I got $450 for my S10+, and $100 back for price matching Amazon. I also got the Moga Xbox Controller, and Fit2. The total was $225.54.
Personally the pixels look so nice and clean but the difference in processor really shows :( which I think is one of the major reasons why most youtubers default to samsung in this showdown. The pixel 4a is a real beast though.
@@Andrew-it7fb Compared to the 4a there is a slim difference. Different build material, slightly better processor and ram, a IP water and dust resistance rating, and .3 inches larger. All this for twice the price. The 4a is such a better deal and a great phone but the 5 was a flop.
@@jonyfanfan4126 the 4a 5g isn't a bad deal either. It has the same processor as the 5, better speakers and a bigger screen. No wireless charging though. I just didn't want to go down to a mid range phone.
@@Andrew-it7fb understandable. And I feel like the 4a 5g is in a position where you might as well get the the FE since its usually at 600$ ore les. With 120 hz and 865g processor along with wireless charging and ip dust and water resistant rating there. The extra hundred bucks are worth it! Google OS and camera software is nice but the rest of the phone is lacking for 500$!
For me the s20 FE is the clear winner, is just a more complete package and value. Wireless charging I like cuz sometimes my phone reads moisture on the port due to me having in moist environment so it won't charge, but if I place it on a QI pad it will charge. Also since I consume lots of media, a better speaker sound is better. I like the red color of the FE and I currently have an SD card so I don't want to get rid of it since 128gb it won't be enough for the next 3 years woth so much 4k 60 frame. The Pixel is 100 bucks too expensive
It's kinda weird, but why didn't they just do top and bottom firing speakers on the Pixel 5? They could have kept the vibrating speaker in the screen and then perhaps added a speaker for mid-low range noises on the top or back to give it more oomph. I'm still buying a pixel 5 though. I love the look of it and the software/camera.
Apparently the S20 FE only has a virtual Proximity Sensor. I'm also finding that the screen is constantly light up during calls. I gave the FE a great review on my own channel, but now I'm finding a ton of issues
i'll be picking up my S20 FE 5G UW from verizon tomorrow . it's only gonna add $18 to my monthly bill ..... it'll be replaceing a pixle 2XL that still works perfectly fine but google decided to not support it already ! :( .... thanks for sharing your experience . take care , jeff

Nice job... I had to pixel 3A when it first came out but it started to get a little laggy after a year or more and so I think the Galaxy Fe is the better choice because the processor may not mean much right now but in a year or more it will mean something.
After loving my original Pixel XL for 4 years I actually switched to the FE due to the delay in production of the Pixel 5. After watching this, the ONLY reason I would be swapping back to a Pixel XL is the back fingerprint scanner... but I've decided against that! I just found out Samsung offers similar security features like "stay unlocked at home," so I don't really need a scanner, and I was able to grab the FE for $100 cheaper through an early Amazon sale.
Pixel 5 has a stronger body, better cameras, better os ,faster os ,faster updates, better size for one handed mode ,a new type of design (not a boring glass metal sandwich ) better battery life,faster charger in the box ,better placed front camera
Galaxy FE has better performance, more cameras, more color options, higher refresh rate, better screen, bigger screen, in screen finger print reader, bigger and better battery life, faster charging, dex support, and very stellar camera even if it isn't quite on par w the pixel. This really comes down to personal preference, I think for media consumers who need a bigger screen and battery, go for the fe, for those who want a clean software experience and fast updates, go for the pixel. I personally have used both and prefer the fe for the overall user experience when gaming and watching videos and getting work done but the pixel software experience is still really nice
@@taylorhuntington1156 half of that is simply not true battery life being one of them and some people don't want a massive screen in the pocket I have both and my pixel out lasts my Fe every time
@@markkendall6144 are you slow? Half of that is not true? All of what I said is factual. Pixel 5 has 4080 mAh s20 fe has a 4500 mAh. You are clearly biased for Google because the galaxy fe is a much better deal for the price for most people. I love Google and stock Android and I wanted the pixel to be better but you can't charge 700 dollars for a screen that small and a mid range snapdragon especially when oneplus exists. Pixel 5 is a rip off.
@@taylorhuntington1156 not everyone wants a bigger screen with a cheap plastic back with one ui the only thing missing from pixel is face unlock that's the one and only bad thing
To be fair when I had my S9 I was getting monthly security updates and now all Samsung’s flagships will get three Android/One Ui updates which is much better.
@@marcgardner868 Imagine 3 years of Android and Security update, thats more than enought. I believe people change their phone after 2/ 3 years. Im planning to buy FE with EMI
That processor is not going to matter because Google's software makes Samsung's software look like crap. So pretty much the little better processor doesn't matter if the software is trash
The S20 FE as I see it is a pretty solid side-grade from my burned-in, cracked-screened, battery-worn Note 8 after a couple of years of Samsung decisions that I couldn't justify a wallet vote for. Google made another phone with the selling point of "...you'll be surprised how well it does with so little?" Forgiveness Edition wins. Good dog, Samsung.
I'm in the same boat. My note 8 battery just doesn't hold up to a full day 3 years later and the burn in is getting more noticeable. I'm pretty sure I'll go with the Fe, seems like the best bang for the buck right now.
Your video is very good. But I'm still so hesitating between this two... I like that overall very good experience proposed by S20 FE (camera, audio, screen) BUT the phone seems giant to me, ratio seems weird, and not a fan of OneUi (I'm a OnePlus user since OP1) Google seems average everywhere, is the screen quality as good as FE ? You make clear that audio seems a very weak point ! But OS as pure Android seems good to use and close to what I know from OnePlus. And last point, the unlock at the back. Is it ok on everyday use ? Seems weird to me, like when the Phone is on table and you just want to switch music. Any help or feed back appreciate !
The fingerprint reader on the back of the Pixel is the number one reason that I bought it. All cases and covers for the Pixel 5 have a hole cut out which guides your finger easily to it. It means that in these days of compulsory mask-wearing, I can reach into my pocket and have the phone unlocked even before I have it in front of me. Plus - the smaller size of the Pixel 5 makes it easier to carry and use in one hand. I do admit that the S20 FE is a great phone too, especially at its price. Still, for the simplest, most minimal experience, pure Android on Pixel phones is my preference, and I like the way Pixel phones render photos.
I think if your a Google fan you are definitely going to go with the Pixel 5 but if your somewhat neutral I think the FE provides a better experience esp given the 865 chip which won't feel as dated next year when newer chips are introduced..
i dont really complain too much if its audible in a room watching youtube or something if i wanna go all out i just use the jbl flip or the google home for music. i had a note for anyone who was on the fence of cheap or flagship, the note 20 to me does better at night due to its super sized sensors. night sky its usually a blurry mess, and between day shots of a pixel and note 20 the pixel destroys it in most situations for some reason i always have this slight blur while using the note that doesnt exist on the pixel.
Winner: Hardware = samsung Software = Pixel Went from pixel 4XL to samsung note 20 ultra after ppl reckommending it. Great phone but i prioritize software and the "feel" of the phone when using it so im going back to pixel but im buying the pixel 5.
When every youtuber said SD765 and SD865 make no difference on day-to-day use, I hope they remember they said that, and give the same comment to iphone12. What iphone12 offer? 50% faster soc which make no difference on day-to-day use and 5G which basically no cover on US.
This isnt even a comparison. 1 is actually a midranger with a midrange chip, and the other is a cheaper super saiyan flagship The only midrange chip that beat the snap 865, is Samsung exynos 1080 nm chip. That's it Galaxy S21 - Samsung DESTROYS Qualcomm AGAIN" on UA-cam ua-cam.com/video/rDVQUiMGT2o/v-deo.html "Samsung - This is a MIGHTY Performance" on UA-cam ua-cam.com/video/Rd2_FJ7j-Jk/v-deo.html
I am fan of Google, I have pixel 1xl and pixel 3 xl, but last week I bought FE because of size of pixel 5, I am sure pixel lost a lot of fan because they did only small version only.
FE is cheaper even, discount everywhere also trade in promo. If anyone buys a Pixel 5 over FE then don’t even dare to call iPhones users ‘sheep’ cause you are looking at yourself.
This kind of perspective is the problem. You dumbasses try to down google for pricing their FLAGSHIP at 699 usd lol. Look at the bigger picture, samsung is getting away with pricing their note 20 and s20 ultra at 1400 and 1100 usd when they can actually squeeze the best hardware specs for a 700 dollar samsung FE. Fools
Its so weird how technically speaking the Samsung has such great value and good specs- yet the pixel still has so much presence because of its software and idk? Charm??
Really no headphone jack in the s20 fe?? I have ear buds, but sometimes I still want to use my regular headphones, also my car is 2012 and in order to play it through the speakers I have to do a plug in through the headphone jack. I want this phone, but it's kind of a deal breaker.
I am not going to upgrade this year. I switched to Google for a premium phone. Next year if Google can not come with a competitive phone, I will have to switch for any good in the market. I can give iPhone a try. I hope Google corrects their mistakes.
nexus6 > nexus 6p > pixel 1 > pixel 2 > pixel 3(current phone, battery horrible, need new phone) > pixel 4 (skippped it due to no fingerprint scanner and poor battery) > pixel 5 or FE? might go with the FE. Cant spend 700 on a phone with shitty stereo speakers and a camera sensor from 2018. What do you guys think? I only plan on keeping the next phone I get for a year so updates and battery longevity dont mean anything to me

Pixel 5 is basically a waste of money compared to the s20 FE and pixel 4a 5G so yeah...
I think I'd take the S20 FE for the telephoto camera, larger battery, and the faster processor
Galaxy S20 FE is better in all ways than in Pixel 5

Ye it is an amazing feature, but using an api you can get the google camera app on almost any android phone, and it works. Rly well!

@@taylorhuntington1156 not everyone wants a bigger screen with a cheap plastic back with one ui the only thing missing from pixel is face unlock that's the one and only bad thing
I want pixel phones because of its regular updates
To be fair when I had my S9 I was getting monthly security updates and now all Samsung’s flagships will get three Android/One Ui updates which is much better.
@@marcgardner868 Imagine 3 years of Android and Security update, thats more than enought. I believe people change their phone after 2/ 3 years.
Im planning to buy FE with EMI
Shane, please tell ,me one thing. Should i upgrade from Samsung galaxy fit to fit 2?😕😕
I like the look and feel of the Pixel 5, 6 inch screen, but smaller overall size. I also like having stock Android without any bloatware.
If I were strictly basing the purchase off of the camera, both photo and video, which should I buy?
Pixel 5
I went FE as I have Buds+ and Gear S3 watch. Plus Samsung gave me $350 for S9+ so my cost was $350!
Wow great deal!
Same..... got $400 for s10e. Making FE only $300.👍
My gear s3 always has connection issues with my 2 xl. I'm hoping it'll do better with a samsung phone.
@@Andrew-it7fb make sure you update the watch software via the Wear app! I was have random drops of connectivity but it has stablized.
@@rmpain yep, I've done that
So what are the main differences between S20 FE and the regular S20? I haven't been following tech need lately 😅 anyway excellent video!
Glass vs plastic back, 8gb vs 6gb ram, 1440p vs 1080p screen. FE has bigger 4500mah battery vs the S20's 4000mah and same size as the S20+
Excellent review as always.
Went with the FE simply because of the Processor .
That processor is not going to matter because Google's software makes Samsung's software look like crap. So pretty much the little better processor doesn't matter if the software is trash
My choice will be Galaxy S20 FE next year when its even cheaper lool for now I'll keep my Note 10 Lite
Cheap ass
@@nownow1681 shut up
Shane symonds reviews always better than the everyone on UA-cam. 👍👍👍😍😍😍
The S20 FE as I see it is a pretty solid side-grade from my burned-in, cracked-screened, battery-worn Note 8 after a couple of years of Samsung decisions that I couldn't justify a wallet vote for.
Google made another phone with the selling point of "...you'll be surprised how well it does with so little?"
Forgiveness Edition wins. Good dog, Samsung.
Side grade? Id call it an upgrade in all areas minus the S pen and headphone jack.
I'm in the same boat. My note 8 battery just doesn't hold up to a full day 3 years later and the burn in is getting more noticeable. I'm pretty sure I'll go with the Fe, seems like the best bang for the buck right now.
I have this red Galaxy s20 fe, and its awesomeness.
Any noteable differences in the OS?
Your video is very good.
But I'm still so hesitating between this two...
I like that overall very good experience proposed by S20 FE (camera, audio, screen) BUT the phone seems giant to me, ratio seems weird, and not a fan of OneUi (I'm a OnePlus user since OP1)
Google seems average everywhere, is the screen quality as good as FE ? You make clear that audio seems a very weak point !
But OS as pure Android seems good to use and close to what I know from OnePlus. And last point, the unlock at the back. Is it ok on everyday use ? Seems weird to me, like when the Phone is on table and you just want to switch music.
Any help or feed back appreciate !
the Pixel has a 90hz display and OLED. It’s pretty good compared to the S20 FE
Pixel 5 all day long software experience unrivaled you'd have to switch to ios to get that experience
Very good comparison! I currently have a Samsung Galaxy A50 but want a much very camera. I am considering the S20 FE. Is it a good option? Thank you
Nice video, also where can I find the Mandalorian wallpaper?
*S20FE DA BEST* 💙
Seriously pixel is too boring and too basic and way to small
Not a fan of the fingerprint lock on the back of the pixel 5, not good if using a cover or case. Very good review. Thank you.
The fingerprint reader on the back of the Pixel is the number one reason that I bought it. All cases and covers for the Pixel 5 have a hole cut out which guides your finger easily to it. It means that in these days of compulsory mask-wearing, I can reach into my pocket and have the phone unlocked even before I have it in front of me. Plus - the smaller size of the Pixel 5 makes it easier to carry and use in one hand. I do admit that the S20 FE is a great phone too, especially at its price. Still, for the simplest, most minimal experience, pure Android on Pixel phones is my preference, and I like the way Pixel phones render photos.
10:11 Best buddies 😍😍
Can't believe I say this but I think I rather have the samsung phone than the pixel phone.
I think if your a Google fan you are definitely going to go with the Pixel 5 but if your somewhat neutral I think the FE provides a better experience esp given the 865 chip which won't feel as dated next year when newer chips are introduced..
hi,where can i get the mandalorian wall paper
Pixel 5 has WiFi 6? Thought they omitted it this year per the website spec
I made an error. Thanks for pointing it out!
I really like that shark dancing wallpaper. Where can I find it?
Hope you get to 200k subscribers
i dont really complain too much if its audible in a room watching youtube or something if i wanna go all out i just use the jbl flip or the google home for music. i had a note for anyone who was on the fence of cheap or flagship, the note 20 to me does better at night due to its super sized sensors. night sky its usually a blurry mess, and between day shots of a pixel and note 20 the pixel destroys it in most situations for some reason i always have this slight blur while using the note that doesnt exist on the pixel.
Any thoughts on the Exynos version of the s20 fe
What are the wireless charging speeds?
This fell feels like a sneak peak of the s21
Where did you get those wallpapers!!
This channel needs 1m already! It's so underated.
Winner:
Hardware = samsung
Software = Pixel
Went from pixel 4XL to samsung note 20 ultra after ppl reckommending it. Great phone but i prioritize software and the "feel" of the phone when using it so im going back to pixel but im buying the pixel 5.
I have neither. I use the note 20. But got it free from at&t
Brooooo the pixel five looks like one of my bathroom tiles
you stole that...
Still better than plastics.
Can you tell me what's the name of the live wallpapers you use. Thx
When every youtuber said SD765 and SD865 make no difference on day-to-day use, I hope they remember they said that, and give the same comment to iphone12.
What iphone12 offer? 50% faster soc which make no difference on day-to-day use and 5G which basically no cover on US.
This isnt even a comparison. 1 is actually a midranger with a midrange chip, and the other is a cheaper super saiyan flagship
The only midrange chip that beat the snap 865, is Samsung exynos 1080 nm chip. That's it

yea so that means that the next year of high mid-range devices are going to be A FLAGSHIP LEVEL im so excited
Did you see XDAs review where the Pixel 5 beat the standard S20 in app loading times more often than not?
super sayian😅😅
Samsung is better for you my friend got Samsung and never they Had Problems
Got a pixel but going back. You can have different ring and notification volumes!!!!!!! Why isn't this mentioned. It's the most basic function needed.
what's your OSRS name? I play it too.
I am fan of Google, I have pixel 1xl and pixel 3 xl, but last week I bought FE because of size of pixel 5, I am sure pixel lost a lot of fan because they did only small version only.
FE is cheaper even, discount everywhere also trade in promo. If anyone buys a Pixel 5 over FE then don’t even dare to call iPhones users ‘sheep’ cause you are looking at yourself.
Agreed
100% true
Fe cheap build and tacky colours and to big
This kind of perspective is the problem. You dumbasses try to down google for pricing their FLAGSHIP at 699 usd lol. Look at the bigger picture, samsung is getting away with pricing their note 20 and s20 ultra at 1400 and 1100 usd when they can actually squeeze the best hardware specs for a 700 dollar samsung FE. Fools
they're the same price everywhere I've looked and both have trade in options.
WHAT LIVE WALLPAPER APP DO YOU USE IN THE VIDEO?
Its so weird how technically speaking the Samsung has such great value and good specs- yet the pixel still has so much presence because of its software and idk? Charm??
S20 FE 💪🏼.
Really no headphone jack in the s20 fe?? I have ear buds, but sometimes I still want to use my regular headphones, also my car is 2012 and in order to play it through the speakers I have to do a plug in through the headphone jack. I want this phone, but it's kind of a deal breaker.
Asus Rog phone 3-" *holdmybeer* "
I am not going to upgrade this year. I switched to Google for a premium phone. Next year if Google can not come with a competitive phone, I will have to switch for any good in the market. I can give iPhone a try. I hope Google corrects their mistakes.
Can you do a case drop test and studio tour
Can you revisit the note 10 lite, now that Samsung themselves have dropped the price?(idk about us but in germany it is 449€ now, was 600+ before)
nexus6 > nexus 6p > pixel 1 > pixel 2 > pixel 3(current phone, battery horrible, need new phone) > pixel 4 (skippped it due to no fingerprint scanner and poor battery) > pixel 5 or FE?
might go with the FE. Cant spend 700 on a phone with shitty stereo speakers and a camera sensor from 2018. What do you guys think? I only plan on keeping the next phone I get for a year so updates and battery longevity dont mean anything to me
Pixel for the die-hard pixel/google fans, FE for the rest (way more practical and value)
