Latest Samsung Galaxy S24 FE Leaks: Feature-Rich Smartphone Coming
Read in other languages:
The Samsung Galaxy S23 FE proved to be a much-needed update to the series. This year, we can expect its budget-friendly successor, the Galaxy S24 FE, to launch soon. Thanks to a recent leak, we already have a good idea of what the new device will offer.
Marketing images shared by Android Headlines showcased the Galaxy S24 FE's key features and specifications, as well as the design of the next-generation Fan Edition smartphone.
Larger Screen on the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE
Looking at the exterior, it will sport a familiar design language as its predecessor, albeit featuring a bigger 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate and an FHD+ resolution. This is most likely attributed to the reduced bezel thickness around the display, which was very prominent in the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE (review). It also listed a 1,900 nits peak brightness for the display.
The screen will be better protected with Gorilla Glass Victus+, which is tougher than Gorilla Glass 5, which was featured in the previous model. The device will also retain the IP68 dust and water resistance and sleek aluminum frame, arriving in yellow, silver, graphite, blue, and green shades.
Flipping it over, there is no mention of the glass type used. However, the camera module is far more prominent with 50 MP wide, 12 MP ultra-wide, and 8 MP telephoto sensors. It seems these will remain unchanged from last year's model, including the 10 MP front-facing camera.
Would the battery life improve with a new chip?
Internally, the Galaxy S24 FE will be powered by an Exynos 2400e chipset. The 'e' denomination hints at an Exynos 2400 variant that powers the Galaxy S24 models in selected countries. It has a bigger display and a slightly larger 4,565 mAh battery capacity. Samsung has rated it to last up to 29 hours for video playback, which is an 8-hour improvement over its predecessor. As usual, actual battery life still varies depending on the usage.
Like the Galaxy S24 series, the Galaxy S24 FE will also take advantage of the Galaxy AI feature. The news outlet revealed features including generative photo editing, Circle to Search, Sketch to Image, and Live Translate. However, the upcoming smartphone is said to boot on One UI 6.1.1 which is based on Android 14. It is highly likely to receive the Android 15 update at the end of the year.
How much will it cost? The price remains unknown at press time. However, it would not be surprising if it is similarly priced as the Galaxy S23 FE. Samsung should make an official announcement either this month or next.
