Earlier this year, Samsung introduced the powerful Galaxy S20 series, which features popular, top-of-the-line flagship innovations.

However, Samsung is committed to delivering flagship experiences to even more consumers, so they listened to fan feedback and created the Galaxy S20 FE

It’s now become a smartphone sensation in 2020 — a device that includes first-in-category innovations such as a 120Hz display, prograde cameras and immense battery life — at a surprisingly affordable price. As a TV presenter, philanthropist and entrepreneur, Maps Maponyane knows all about giving his best no matter what. 

For him, photography is a passion so we asked him how the Galaxy S20 FE rises to the challenge.

“Single Take is something I really enjoy, which is now in the Galaxy S20 FE. I love photography and try to capture the most of a scene at an event or launch, but Single Take gives me more options. I simply shoot the scene once and get multiple options created automatically by artificial intelligence. 

“You can now shoot for up to 15 seconds and let your phone do the magic of creating a variety of videos, photos and more. With three cameras on the rear, you can also get that professional, no-filter-worthy shot with ease. 

“Simply frame up the scene with the wide-angle camera, then go wider with the ultra wide camera or zoom in up with 3x optical zoom on the telephoto camera. That’s amazing! Night Mode is also important to me, as that’s the time when I am usually active, especially with presenter duties at functions.

“With the Galaxy S20 FE’s big dual-pixel sensor, you get vivid, clear night photos. The rear camera adjusts to pull in light even when its dark so your shots come out detailed and colourful. Overall, I know Galaxy fans will be impressed by the triple camera system and other innovations as much as I am.”
