We know lots about the new Galaxy S20 Fan Edition but we have not heard much about the Samsung Galaxy S20 Lite recently and now the device has been listed on Samsung’s website.
The Fan edition version of the handset is expected some time in October and it is possible that we could see the Galaxy S20 Lite around the same time.

Expected Specifications and Features
The Galaxy S20 Lite will be a lower specification version of the Galaxy S20, exactly what specifications the handset will come with is not known as yet. However, based on previous “Lite” versions of Samsung’s flagship phones, we can make some educated guesses. Typically, the Lite versions feature a slightly less powerful processor, a reduction in RAM, and a lower resolution display compared to their flagship counterparts. For example, the Galaxy S10 Lite came with a Snapdragon 855 processor, which was a step down from the Exynos 9820 found in the standard S10.
We can expect the Galaxy S20 Lite to follow a similar pattern. It might feature a Snapdragon 865 or even a Snapdragon 765G, which would still offer robust performance for most users. The display might be a Full HD+ panel instead of the Quad HD+ found on the standard S20. Camera capabilities might also be scaled down, but still sufficient for everyday photography needs.
Market Position and Pricing
The Galaxy S20 Lite is expected to be positioned as a more affordable alternative to the Galaxy S20, making it an attractive option for consumers who want a high-quality smartphone without the premium price tag. This strategy has worked well for Samsung in the past, as seen with the success of the Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note 10 Lite. These models offered many of the features of their more expensive counterparts but at a more accessible price point.
In terms of pricing, the Galaxy S20 Lite is likely to be priced between $600 and $700, making it competitive with other mid-range smartphones on the market. This price range would make it a strong contender against devices like the OnePlus 8 and the Google Pixel 5, both of which offer excellent performance and features at a similar price point.
As soon as we get some more information on when the new Galaxy S20 Lite smartphone will launch and also its specifications, we will let you guys know.
