Question S21 FE 5G, 1st gen vs. 2nd gen - Samsung Galaxy S21 FE

I just noticed that on the Samsung website, in my country we have two models: 1st gen and 2nd gen. I was curious if anyone has any idea on what differences could there be between the two? I've asked Samsung and I am waiting for an answer, but maybe someone here knows something about this.

Gen 1 has product code G990BZAGEUE and Gen 2 has G990BZAWEUE.

I would probably persume that the Gen1 is the Exynos and the Gen 2 is Snapdragon

I have the Gen1 and it is Snapdragon. From what I see on other websites, the Gen 2 also has the same specs. Weird.

I know there is model which is SM-G990B2. This addon 2 is something what is new. I've it. As far as I know the difference is support for Bluetooth 5.2 instead 5.0. Don't know if they're other differences

Thanks for your input. I received the official answer from Samsung, and apparently they said there is no difference as far as specs go. It's just odd. I mean why would they label it separately on their webpage though. Oh well.

I have Gen2 so only Bluetooth version changes ?
I noticed there's a different firmware between the 2 from Sammobile.com

I just recently learned that in my country Gen1 is Snapdragon and Gen2 is Exynos. Be VERY careful what you buy. Samsung confirmed to me that there are NO differences between the two but on close inspection, on their site it's clearly stated that Gen2 is powered by their latest proprietary chipset which is Exynos. Very fowl play from Samsung.

there is b and b2
gsmarena b2 v b its not true both are 888

I noticed the same thing, some sellers call it new edition. Manifacturing country seems to be India for B2 instead of Vietnam, which is interesting.
Only info that is stated on Amazon is "New AP".

Perhaps a 1.3 ghz CPU?
Snapdragon QSD8650A processor
4.3" screen
I believe an aluminum casing?
If all that is true, then T-mobile can have their HD7. I'd be much happy with this.
More pictures!
Nothing breathtaking but maybe the best looking WP7 device by HTC so far.
Lets hope the rumors of a 1.3GHz Snapdragon processor and a 1400mAh battery is true.

It's funny how people build up unrealistic expectations and then get disappointed.
As Nietzsche once said, hope dies last, I would kill it first.
Thats unrealistic?
Looks like the Samsung Cetus has a 1500mAh battery.
But hey... lets hope it has the same specs as all the others, so we won't get disappointed.
Oh wait!... I have a better idea, lets don't care at all.
I wish I could quote some fancy philosopher here... or do I?
Samsung Cetus i8700 is prob the best looking so far and with really good specs. I just hope a 16GB flavour is offered for that model.

What's the point in hoping when you know already that it'll have the same specs. Don't know about the battery though.

hoping? there are multiple reports out claiming that it will be 1.3, no one is blindly speculating.some people see the cup half full, but I guess you see it as wheats the point of looking?
Whatever. Microsoft said all devices will use the same chip. You can fantasize about those "multiple reports" as much as you like. There have been multiple "leaks" reposting Photoshop renders made by xda members just for fun, with big blogs copypasting things without thinking. Most of these "reports" had the same source.
Of course many of the blogs out there are wrong and start chirping what the one before them said. But no one is blindly predicting or "hoping" something out of reach like a phone with a 3.0 ghz quad core with 1 gb graphics either. Regardless of what microsoft said it is very possible that there will be a phone with more than 1 ghz, possibly even a 1.3 ghz, within the next year.
Next year, sure. Just not at launch. If this Mondrian is launched this "holiday season" it's getting the same chip as others. Easy as that.

Anyone have the A100?

Has anyone gotten their hands on the A100 yet?
I am wondering if it has a built in GPS and I can't seem to find any official spec list anywhere.
I don't think it's available yet...
Yes it is available on superbiiz.com
Also, on the ACER website, if you click on Press, you will see the announcement.
Sorry, I can't post outside links yet.

It looks like it has GPS, at least on the one in this youtube video hands on:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ec85k4gdW6A
If you look closely at about 0:49, the do a close up of the spec sheet and it includes GPS. This site also has a spec list that includes GPS.
http://www.teknohive.com/136/acer-iconia-tab-a100-tablet-with-android-3-0/
The A100 looks pretty nice. I like the screen of the A500 for watching movies but I had to admit that I miss the light weight of my Nook Color.
Thanks for the video.
The website with the specs also states that it will release in Q1 2011 and has it listed at 512mb of RAM. More recent sites, including superbiiz, state that it has 1gb of RAM, and it clearly didn't release in Q1. The video also says that it has 512mb of RAM so that is unclear as well.
I emailed SuperBiiz since they seem to be the only retailer with it in stock and they told me that it did not have GPS . . . but customer service isn't always the best at knowing product information, so I am not taking that to heart.
The contradiction of information is very frustrating and could easily be solved by Acer just posting official specs on their site.
Unless more info surfaces, I may just wait until it hits Amazon and other major retailers.
I really want to get rid of my Archos 70 tablet because it is running 2.2, missing a rear camera, gps, compass, and only has 256mb RAM. It was a nice starter device to see if I would use tablets, but I am tired of its missing features. If the A100 doesn't have a GPS, I will end up waiting for the Huawei Mediapad, which I don't want to do since I have heard some problems with the rate in which they update firmware.
1GB RAM and GPS confirmed on the US model.
Just saw one last night in Walmart in Southern California.

As far as I know the actual recall is currently in the US only (Not Australia, according to Samsung. I asked them) however I'd guess it's going to be worldwide very soon. And this includes all the replacement ones that were deemed "safe".
So, your Note 7 will /probably/ be recalled soon enough. Nobody can tell if your phone is safe though. Impossible to know.

Samsung Hong Kong just announced earlier for all people with HK Note 7s to stop using and return the phone. To be honest, the potential battery problem ALWAYS included China and HK phones, Samsung's HK and China divisions were just shady as hell and kept selling on September 2 when Samsung headquarters first announced they made a huge mistake. Samsung HK has been getting killed online by people for weeks for seemingly apathy. I'm surprised they acted so soon this time to echo what the rest of the world is doing.
so long story short, no, your HK note is included in the call for return. All note 7s are. the phone is done.
Well my Note 7 is perfectly fine. The battery and everything is perfectly fine. NO HEAT ISSUE. i am trying to contact the person who sold it to me to check what the supplier stand on this.
Anyways thanks everyone.
I just wonder the problem is not the battery but rather the processor.
The one in China are not exynos which produce more heat
The Recall is GLOBAL, as in INTERNATIONAL. NO SAMSUNG NOTE 7 IS SAFE! RETURN IT!
Seems to me this forum is frequented by Samsung-haters and/or trolls.

Galaxy Tab S 10.5 Model Question

Hi I am looking at buying a used Galaxy Tab S because I like the 10.5" screen and cant find any other tablets that size screen.
1) Which is the best chipset ? I hear that the snap dragon is the best ?
2) Does the snap dragon only appear in all LTE models or just some ?
3) Does the LTE model come in 32gb storage ? Because I cant seem to find it on ebay in 32gb.
My brother has the wifi 16gb version with the exynos and says it slows down quick after a factory reset and the 16gb storage is a pain its not large enough.
ebay seems to say all these come with the Exynos chipset hence my questions.
Thanks in advance guys.
I guess no one knows.
Is anyone with the following models willing to install CPU-Z from google play store and tell me what they have please ?
Galaxy Tab S SM-T805 ????
Galaxy Tab S SM-T807 ????
Galaxy Tab S SM-T800 I think this is Exynos ?
Appreciate it if any users can let me know.

the sm-t800 is the best one to look for. its 16gb but has sd card slot. also, theres more custom rom development on that one. i have the exynos one and seems fine. no slow downs. sm-t807p and 807v are snapdraggon. ii i think sm-t807a and sm-t807t are exynos..
Thanks for the reply.
It just seems to be inconsistent specs posted all over the internet because I messaged a guy selling the 807P and he ran the CPU-Z and said it was Exynos CPU but if you are saying there is better development on the T800 I may get the USA model T800 that has 32gb on board.
I just discovered that Huwawei M5 Pro will have 10.8" screen and the Galaxy Tab S4 will have 10.5" so I think I am going to wait for one of those when they appear this year.
Thanks for the advice.
T807A : AT&T version
T807P: Sprint version
T807R: US Cellular version
T807T : T-Mobile version
T807V: Verizon version
T807 : Factory Unlocked version
It should be the same hardware with several firmwares
32GB versions of the SM-T800, as I understand it, were only sold through Best Buy. I have one.

New Phone ? S20 Plus Snapdragon version

Hello
First i wanted to get the One Plus 8 Pro, but i read numerous threads of people reporting heat, display, and a lot of other problems so i got that out of my list.
Hows the S20 plus the Snapdragon version ? Any know real issues ?
With s21 just around the corner i wouldnt go below note 20 ultra 865+ variant

Have you checked on wondamobile? Its on promotion at the moment
If you need a phone asap the regular s20 Snapdragon can be found for a really good price come cyber monday.. I've had zero issues with it .
I personally prefer the smaller size and the price is great for a really snappy phone. I'm getting around 6.5hrs screen on time as well.
No Root but that hasn't bothered me one bit
Currently updated s20 with exynos is pretty much the same as snapdragon and on daily basis you wont notice any difference, in fact my s20+ exynos version never gave me any reason to complain and at least you have warranty which may not be as easy and straight forward with imported snapdragon
So there are no know problems with the S20/plus

I wouldn't necessarily label these problems but there are issues which you might consider before purchasing the S20 Plus.
The rear cameras aren't flush with the back panel, they protrude. It doesn't look like much in promotional photos but it clashes with the symmetry of the device and won't lay flat. Also at 6.37" x 2.90" it's not what most consider a "pocket phone"' it's a big device which is the trend these days.
There's no 3.5 mm jack, the wired earpiece connection is routed through the charging port which requires an adapter. If you're fine with Bluetooth for audio no big deal but as an audio buff a wired connection is superior.
Only Asian Snapdragon variants offer unlocked bootloaders, if you won't root the device that shouldn't matter. The UI is refined to the point you may not want to bother with root. Plus there are numerous models even within the S20 Plus. If full Call Feature functionality is a top priority then aquire your service provider's device, which in your case would mean a Exynos SoC.
It's an expensive smartphone, there are other options available for hundreds of dollars less that may be suitable for your needs. Overall it's a great device, maybe the best smartphone on the market but not necessarily the best value.
If I was considering a purchase at this time I'd hold off until the S21 is released in January or February. If you do and still prefer the, S20 Plus it will available at an even lower price than today.
Hello, who knows what this acronym means?
