The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is on the horizon, promising to deliver flagship level smartphone experience without breaking the bank. But is it truly the budget powerhouse we’ve been waiting for? Let’s delve into all of its expected specs, features, design, and more.
1. No Compromises in Design or Display
Samsung’s Fan Edition series models were launched affordable flagship phones, offering a premium experience but with certain cut corners. But starting with the Galaxy S23 FE, the brand improved the design of the Fan Edition phone, using a glass back and an aluminum frame. Looking at some of the leaked marketing materials, the Galaxy S24 FE would also feature a similar body that employs glass and metal.
On the front, the Galaxy S24 FE is expected to sport a tall 6.7-inch Dynamic 2X AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, similar to its predecessor. Finer details regarding the screen are still unknown, but it will likely offer HDR support and over 1,000 nits of peak brightness.
2. What’s under the hood?
A GeekBench listing recently revealed that the Galaxy S24 FE is equipped with an Exynos 2400e SoC. This chipset appears to be an underclocked version of the Exynos 2400, which powers the flagship Galaxy S24 lineup. So we can expect better battery efficiency. While Samsung typically launches its premium smartphones in two variants (Snapdragon and Exynos) like the Galaxy S24, it will announce the Galaxy S24 FE with the Exynos 2400e in all regions.
Samsung could couple the processor with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The smartphone is rumored to be powered by a 4,565mAh battery pack that could likely support 25W wired fast charging. Out of the box, the Galaxy S24 FE would run on the Android 14 OS based OneUI 6.1.1 custom skin.
On the rear, it is rumored to pack a 50-megapixel primary camera along with a 12-megapixel ultra wide angle lens, and an 8-megapixel telephoto shooter with 3x optical zoom. For selfies and video calls, the front houses a 10-megapixel sensor.
Other notable features would likely include stereo speakers, an in-display fingerprint scanner, an IP rating for water and dust resistance, and all new AI features that were exclusively announced with the Galaxy S24 lineup.
3. So why choose the Galaxy S24 FE?
Samsung had launched the Galaxy S24 series with a starting price tag of around 800 US Dollars. But for those looking to get a similar flagship experience from this brand without a premium price tag, the Galaxy S24 FE will have you covered. Its predecessor launched for 600 US Dollars and we can expect the upcoming model to have a similar price tag. You would also get access to features exclusive to the Galaxy S series like AI and new camera features. So stick around as we will be covering more leaks and reports about this budget powerhouse.
