Samsung Galaxy S24 FE

Big, colorful, 120Hz display ; Great performance ; Two-day battery life ; Surprisingly good charge speeds ; Seven years of updates

It's very big ; Cheap-feeling hardware ; Mediocre cameras ; Uncompetitive price

“The Galaxy S24 FE shouldn't be your first choice, but if you want a big phone with great battery life (and you find an incredible deal), it'll serve you well.”

Samsung looks to have doubled down with this year’s Galaxy S24 FE, offering a suite of upgrades to display, performance and battery life that should make it a more tempting prospect for Samsung fans who don’t want to shell out for the flagship Galaxy...

Excellent performance ; Long battery life ; Galaxy AI features

Average cameras ; Thin-sounding speakers

The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE delivers on most of the flagship phone experience for a lower price, with strong performance, terrific battery life, and Galaxy AI.

Excellent battery life ; Very strong performance for the price ; Sharp display with vivid colors

AI features not perfectly polished ; Some nifty features are hidden away ; iPhone-like design not for everyone

The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is more than just a cheaper option in its product line – it’s a great phone in its own right. It may not offer quite the processing power or camera quality of its more expensive siblings, but the slight downgrades are...

Big screen and loud speakers ; Telephoto lens ; Samsung's full feature suite for less money

Battery life ; Slower optical fingerprint sensor versus Galaxy S24 ; Galaxy AI feels gimmicky

Flagship-like styling and materials ; Capable main camera ; All the Galaxy AI goodies you’d expect

Secondary cameras aren’t on par with the main lens ; Larger screen won’t please everyone – and regular S24 is now cheaper

Doesn’t mess with the Fan Edition formula, for better and worse. The Galaxy S24 FE appeals to Samsung fans on a budget – though the competition is fierce, including from within.
