Galaxy S20 SeriesHaving a lot of problems with the fingerprint sensor. Fails to recognise on first try. Often take 2, 3 or sometimes 4 attempts.
-same fingerprint enrolled 4 times, no difference.
-often prompts to cover the whole sensor despite the whole sensor being covered.
-tried clearing cache
-same issue occurs in safe mode

Galaxy S20 SeriesExactly, I had to replace my HTC U11+ and because HTC has nothing to offer currently I switched to Samsung S20+. Fingerprint sensor is *****. My HTC had a separate sensor at the back and that worked super. In one light swipe turn on the phone and get access. With S20+ I have to redo over again and end up typing PIN code instead. Horror. Also WiFi connection on HTC was far more better. Need to reset every time. Maybe switch to OnePlus 8 instead?

Galaxy S20 SeriesHave to agree with all of this. This was an 'upgrade' from an s9+ which was in perfect working order, total vanity purchase. S20+ is a lot worse. Fingerprint scanner works 10% of the time, have cleared the cache and followed all of the above, no improvement but thanks for sharing. Also it adjusts the default ringtone volumes randomly so I miss calls all the time. Solution to that is to factory reset and restore all but my settings. Very disappointing, regret getting the phone now. I've emailed Samsung, if i get anything useful I'll post it.

Galaxy S20 SeriesThe fingerprint scanner on the S20U is probably the most useless thing after the camera quality that Samsung have done. Comepletely ruined the S20U.
Looking forward to selling it and switching back to the iPhone 12.

Galaxy S20 SeriesIm going to disagree with you on 1 thing
The autofocus was bad at first but after a couple of updates i can say it good now it takes incredible pictures.
I would never switch to a garbage iPhone that adds old stuff to their 'new' phone and claim they invented it. So no better stick with an android phone

Galaxy S20 SeriesI agree with the fact that older models worked better. I had an S9 and it worked fantastic. There are lot of their things that don't work so great on this phone. For example the talk to text acts like I'm speaking a foreign language. In fact sometimes it puts words that are from a foreign language or maybe a language from aliens ( I have had to retype and delete words from this post because the talk to text is so badd, For example why does it spell the word badd with 2 d's). Also The at home feature to keep the phone unlocked doesn't work 3/4 of the time period and also the recognized devices. In fact why is this phone typing the word PER IOD instead of putting a. The Fact that these extremely expensive phones have so many issues is an absolute Outrage. Stupid phone. I have resisted using Apple products all these years but something's going to change.

Galaxy S20 Seriesthis is the single biggest gripe and most frustrating issue with the s20 plus. I'm even thinking of sending it back.

Then they will send it back there will be a possibility that you run back into the problems if you send it back again they will try to find they problem but they wull say problem if no where to be found.....
