There have already been a number of rumors and reports regarding the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE, the company’s upcoming entry in its Fan Edition series of smartphones. It was initially believed that the S23 FE will not be launching this year, similar to the S22 FE from last year. However, later reports have confirmed its existence, with its launch appeared to be set for late 2023.

Samsung Galaxy S23 FE to launch sometime between July-September

But a new report has hinted that the Galaxy S23 FE will be launching in the third quarter of this year. In other words, we can expect the announcement to be held sometime between July and September 2023. If this news is true, the South Korean tech giant’s latest Fan Edition phone will be arriving a whole quarter ahead of its initial launch timeline. For those unaware, it was previously rumored that the brand will launch the Galaxy S23 FE sometime in Q4 2023.

Now, the SamMobile report claims that the device will first launch in Q3 2023, but only in select markets. Unfortunately, it is still unclear which regions will receive the device first. Although, a broader global release is expected to kick off in the fourth and final quarter of this year, or the October to December period. Keep in mind that this is still just an unconfirmed report so take this news with a pinch of salt for now.

Based on what we know so far, the Galaxy S23 FE will likely be equipped with the Exynos 2200 processor unlike the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 on the Galaxy S23 lineup. One of the improvements in the new FE phone is expected to be the 50 megapixel primary camera on the rear, which could be the same sensor as the one found in the Galaxy S22 or Galaxy S23.
