It is possible that Samsung would fix the hardware upon assembly for more recent manufactured dates, but it's unlikely. They'll just focus on their 2021 lineup instead.

If not, you should have direct access to it.
At least, that's how it worked for me.

When I follow the link in that post, StudentBeans gives me a single-use code like this " StudentBeans0XXXXXXXX", and a link to Samsung website. When I do login to Samsung page, it asks me for an employee code. If I enter the code I get from StudentBeans, it always tell me "Please enter a valid employee code" and does not pass this step. Anyone had the same issue before?

Bought it at this sale price and began the return process for the original one, mostly out of principle.

Still waiting on them to process the return since it was only delivered today.

Ghost touch issue is still there, but it wasn't an problem for me on the original, and it's fine on the replacement too.
Only real difference is that the latter's display is a tiny bit less warm at the same settings?

Sold it, finger print sensor doesnt work well, its fast but couldnt compare to my mi 10, too much samsung bloatware, some is removable but I dont need the hassle. ok camera, nothing special. Battery life is ok not as good as i expected but couldnt compare to mi 10. I can't stand samsungs UI. Thats just me though if your happy with samsung products go for it. Otherwise spend the extra 150 to get a pixel 5. $500 is the most I would pay for the s20 fe

It's for an old Chinese lady, in which her older A5 (2017) can do so.
Just want to make sure before placing the order.
Thanks in advance.
