    We had confirmed the existence of the Galaxy S20 Fan Edition and revealed its color variants two months ago. Since then, some of its features and specifications have been leaked. The upcoming smartphone is expected to be a spiritual successor to the Galaxy S10 Lite, and its first press render was leaked last week. Now, an interesting piece of information about the phone has surfaced.

    Until now, it was rumored that the Galaxy S20 Fan Edition will feature the Snapdragon 865 processor. Now, a phone with model number SM-G780F has appeared in Geekbench's database with the Exynos 990 processor. This is the global variant of the Galaxy S20 Fan Edition, and might not feature 5G connectivity. The listing also reveals that the phone features 8GB RAM and Android 10. The device scored 588 points in the single-core CPU test and 2,448 points in the multi-core CPU test.

    Smartphone enthusiasts were hoping that the company would launch the Galaxy S20 Fan Edition with the Snapdragon 865 processor throughout the world. However, the existence of an Exynos 990 variant could come as a surprise to many. The phone is expected to feature 128GB internal storage, a microSD card slot, a 12MP+12MP+8MP triple-camera setup at the rear, a 32MP selfie camera, a Dynamic AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, and an in-display fingerprint reader.

    The Galaxy S20 Fan Edition is also rumored to feature an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance and a 4500mAh battery with 45W fast charging. The phone could be available in five colors: blue, green, orange, red, and white. It could be priced around $750, and Samsung is reportedly aiming to sell 5 million units of the phone by the end of this year.
