Samsung Galaxy S24 FE October 2024 update

Samsung officially launched the Galaxy S24 FE. The company’s latest Fan Edition will be available for order starting October 3, in the Blue, Graphite, Gray, Mint, and Yellow colors.

The new Samsung Galaxy S24 FE packs pro-grade hardware and Galaxy AI capabilities. There are many striking upgrades that make it comparable to the Galaxy S24 flagship.

Apple just launched the iPhone 16 after Google’s Pixel 9 unveiling. The Galaxy S24 FE can’t be considered non-flagship, thanks to Samsung’s approach to bring massive upgrades.

The smartphone sports a 6.7-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2x display with 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and Vision Booster.

The handset comes with a 12MP ultrawide, a 50MP primary, and an 8MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. On the front, it has a 10MP camera that resists inside the Infinity-O cutout.

Samsung confirms the Exynos 2400e processor that is made using 4nm process tech. Three storage configurations will be available for purchase including 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB – all paired with 8GB RAM.

It has a 4700mAh battery, which can be charged up to 50% in around 30 minutes with a 25W adapter. It also features fast wireless charging and wireless powershare features.

It boots Android 14-based One UI 6.1, bringing all the amazing bells and whistles of the new OS. Surprisingly, it is supported by seven years of OS and security updates so it won’t miss out on new features.

It is a 5G-supported smartphone that also has WiFi 6E technology. Security features include Auto Blocker, Samsung Knox, Samsung Knox Vault, Samsung Knox Matrix, and Passkey.

As leaked earlier, the Galaxy S24 FE costs $649 for 128GB and $709 for 256GB variant in the US. You can get up to $400 instant trade-in credit apart from Education, Govt and Military offers.
