The Galaxy S24 FE aims to deliver premium features at a mid-range price, but questions remain about whether it is priced too high for its target audience. With a starting price of $650, Samsung appears to be positioning this device to compete aggressively in the marketplace.
The preorder page showcases pastel blue and mint colors alongside graphite and gray. AI is expected to be a significant feature of the new phone, although specific capabilities were not detailed. According to the preorder page, which remains online, the Galaxy S24 FE is expected to arrive on October 3rd.
The early preorder suggests that the official announcement is imminent, and customers keen on the new device are already gearing up for its release. Samsung plans to offer seven years of Android updates and security patches for the S24 FE, matching Google’s recent commitment to updates and Apple’s informal seven-year policy. This long-term support likely contributes to the price hike.
As more details emerge, consumers will be watching closely to see how these changes impact the overall value of the Galaxy S24 FE.
