Samsung Galaxy S24 FE: Release Date, Features, and Rumors – Everything You Need to Know
The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is likely to be Samsung’s last major smartphone launch of 2024, although we could see the Samsung Galaxy S25 in early 2025. That timing – right before the Galaxy S25 – might make the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE a tough sell, though how compelling it is could largely come down to the price. Sadly, we don’t yet know what the price will be, but thanks to leaks and rumors, we do have a good idea of the upcoming phone’s specs, and they paint a picture of a capable alternative to the standard Samsung Galaxy S24.
Below, you’ll find everything we’ve heard so far about the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE, including its likely screen, chipset, cameras, and release date, among other things.
Cut to the chase:
* What is it? A cheaper alternative to the Galaxy S24
* When is it out? Possibly October
* How much will it cost? Likely upwards of $599.99 / £599 / AU$899
The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is expected to launch in October, and we’re expecting to pay upwards of $599.99 / £599 / AU$899 for this phone. There’s some disagreement about when the Galaxy S24 FE will actually launch, with some claiming it’ll land in October or later, while another report suggests it could happen as early as this summer.
For power, the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is likely to have an Exynos 2400e chipset, which is reportedly a slightly less powerful version of the Exynos 2400 used in some variants of the Samsung Galaxy S24. The Exynos 2400e should still be more powerful and more power-efficient than the Exynos 2200 used in the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE.
Interestingly, an earlier leak suggested that in some regions, the Galaxy S24 FE might instead get a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which would be a bit more powerful than an Exynos 2400e. That’s a claim we’ve heard more than once, so you might luck out and get a Snapdragon chipset in the Galaxy S24 FE in some parts of the world.
For RAM, the benchmark mentioned above listed 8GB, which is what you get in the Galaxy S23 FE. However, several sources have said that the Galaxy S24 FE could actually top out at 12GB of RAM, so there might be both 8GB and 12GB models of the S24 FE.
As for storage, we’ve heard talk of the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE being available in both 128GB and 256GB capacities. Those Galaxy S24 FE storage capacities have been mentioned multiple times, and would be the same as those currently offered for the Galaxy S23 FE.
The most detailed Samsung Galaxy S24 FE battery leak so far points to a 4,565mAh battery capable of lasting for up to 29 hours of video playback or 78 hours when listening to music. We’re inclined to believe these claims, but it’s worth noting that a couple of earlier Galaxy S24 FE battery leaks pointed to Samsung’s next FE having a slightly smaller 4,500mAh battery.
Finally, we’ve heard that the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE could come with various AI features, like other reasonably high-end Samsung phones.
