When it was announced back in September we could tell that the Galaxy S20 FE was going to hit the sweet spot in pricing and hardware. It's proving to be popular the world over, but it seems that the affordable flagship has some display issues to contend with thanks to users reporting that its display becomes unresponsive and a bunch of other bugs.

Jittery scrolling, laggy animations, ghost touches, and a buggy pinch-to-zoom experience have also been reported by Galaxy S20 FE owners. And while Samsung has already attempted to remedy the problems by rolling out two firmware updates, the issues are still prevalent although slightly improved.

Despite the two firmware updates, Galaxy S20 FE owners are still complaining that the touch issues are still present, with pinch-to-zoom being a common complaint on Reddit.

While Samsung appears to be doing what it can via firmware updates, some users are wondering if the issues are able to be fixed with an update or if the problem is with the hardware itself. If this is a hardware defect, it would be Samsung's responsibility to offer replacement units sooner, rather than later.

Let us know in the comments below if your Galaxy S20 FE is exhibiting these display issues.

I have an s20fe, upgraded from S7 and its a waste of $700, Samsung still has not rolled out a update for the UNLOCKED US phones! I have checked everyday…factory reset…no changes.

There’s no carrier, so it should be first one…not that it has cured the issue. Samsung forum in Korea mentions a issue with virtual proximity sensor… but after the note 7 and fold fiasco they are hiding in fear losing big market share..with bad QC history and now offering now help to thousands if not more.

Samsung owes us a replacement ASAP! Let’s join together to force Samsung hand collectively we have spent millions on a faulty product with no remedy for a month!!!

S20Fe lemon edition!

Any lawyers have the s20fe wanna get their attention?

  Samsung, if this is a hardware issue you should fix and replace all FE’s, simple as that?
