The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE, the very first Galaxy S FE smartphone, has reached the end of life and received its very last update. The October 2025 Android security update is probably its last, unless Samsung decides to prolonge its software support for some reason.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE has reached the end-of-life after 5 years of updates

The Galaxy S20 FE was announced back in September 2020 and released a month later. It became quite popular straight from launch, as it really did offer a lot for the price. That changed with some of its successors, but the first one was extremely compelling.

Samsung promised three major Android OS updates and five years’ worth of security updates. That was Samsung’s promise, and the company delivered. Some of you may not have received the October 2025 Android update yet, and if that’s the case, it’s coming your way. That update started rolling out last month.

If you still own this smartphone, it may be a good idea to upgrade at this point. Security update are a necessity in this day and age. If you’re looking to stay in the Galaxy S FE family, well, the Galaxy S25 FE is available.

That is the latest phone in the series, and it both launched and became available back in September. Samsung has promised to deliver 7 years of major OS and security updates for that phone.

So, the Galaxy S25 FE will have an even longer update cycle than its predecessor. The vast majority of you won’t even be keeping it around for that long. Such commitment when it comes to updates is always great to see.
