The Samsung FE phones are the only ones you should buy from Samsung. You get 90% of the flagship phones at half the price. I have the s24 pluss and I wish I didn't pay $1,000 for the s24 pluss when I could have gotten this one for $449 with a trade in of any old phone. Don't play into the chip set and all the other jargon all there's reviews like to tell you. So yeah, hope this happens.

[@nocapproductions5471]

Problem is its not half the price. You get 90% of flagship but at 70% price, $549 vs $799.

[@ManiPulatoR84]

Don't know if it's a problem, still sounds reasonable. But yes, it's not a no-brainer, especially if comparing the 256gb version, then it's only 20-25% cheaper.

[@privateprivate5302]

I don't understand your comment

[@Fokendran]

You are absolutely right😊

[@atlas4647]

You have a point. Its a great value phone. But saying its the " only ones you should buy from Samsung " is an overstatement. There is a reason, the flagships have flagship price. Those little corner cutters to save price on the FE, you can not tell via a review or specs, you must use it to feel them. And trust me, you do FEEL them, it depends on you whether those "experiences" are deal breakers or not. Plus, there are Flip and Fold phones from Samsung, which imo once i used them, its hard for me to go back to bar phone atm. But nonetheless, s24FE is a great value phone, no arguement.

[@TheOhsemGuy]

At least it has Samsung DeX, which not many reviewers talk about.

[@kpehe100]

The only reason I used to buy the FE was the size, medium. But it has now gone to the size of the Ultra, no more.

[@valismind]

interesting, I think the size appeals to more people. but to be fair, I udnerstand if you like smaller phones you dont want to jump to a larger one.

[@ManiPulatoR84]

Neither hands, nor pockets are getting bigger 🤷‍♂️

[@rippleblink740]

For 95% of people in their 99% of time they use a case, so I don't understand why people really love to talk about the material of the back, not on topics of density/weight, thermal conductivity, impact resistance, but on topics of whether it collects fingerprint or dust. Changing from old A series to modern galaxy all series design, the biggest disappointment is that it becomes so uncomfortable to hold, rectangle replaces rond edges, weight increases much. The use of glass takes an essential role in it. So if someone is wise to comment on materials, I want him to know good quality plastics is the best choice.

[@PhillipLemmon]

They get phones with glass on the front and back, then when the glass breaks they're like why did this happen?! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤦🏿

[@arvinreysentorias1282]

S24 fe did not disappoint. Very smooth phone❤❤

[@davidsimpson6372]

The price is set for global markets and their competitors in those markets. Here in Turkey it's quite good value, especially when a OnePlus 12 is literally twice as much and even the S24 is another $230 (The FE has already dropped in price with resellers).

[@at4b00m]

yeah they also bought my not charging iphone 13 with a cracked screen and camera for 600 dollars and then added 280 dollars to buy this one

[@adr197900]

Upgraded from the s22 base model. Very happy. For people that dont play games u dont need anything more. These phones are throw away technology so why pay more

[@carlovesfam6069]

Exactly. 🫡👏👏

[@DarioGrimes]

Its crazy how people make a size of a bezel a big deal the nick picking is out of this world

[@valismind]

"Flagship user tires galaxy S24 fan edition" if I was coming from something like the A22, I prob wouldn't even have mentioned the display bezels. but, I do think for a phone of its price point, this is something that could be better.

[@allaamrauf8214]

​@@valismind why though?

[@shobin05]

So you like carrying a bulkier phone with less screen like an iphone SE then? The s24fe bezels are ugly af there are cheaper phones with even bezels or better screen to body ratio. It's the only thing holding me back from getting one rn.

[@shinydavidhowell]

I definitely don't have a problem with these bezels in a way I would with the Pixel 8a. This one looks very similar to the S20 FE 5G I'm upgrading from, and while the 8a would feel like a big step back this wouldn't. Plus, I always use a case on my phone and the lip would get in the way if it was a true edge-to-edge display.

[@JenJacobs896]

This phone isn't bad since it's wired charging speed is on par with the Pixel 9 and Samsung s24 that are packed with 25W wired charging🔋

[@Gggrrrrrrrr23]

Also the same as the A15

[@mmakeyboardwarrior4646]

Your channels gona blow up , content is always informative and entertaining!

[@randomname9758]

1) Nobody's paying full price. I got mine for $ 474.99 + taxes in Canada with coupon and trading in a broken non-functional phone for a $200 credit. Many people did that. 2) You need a stand for the mike instead of holding it.

[@valismind]

I do not include trade-ins, and promos when talking about these devices because for starters, they're not permanent, and depend on region. You could say the same for any phone. The Fold 6 is like $1000 after trade-in and promos, but it's $2700 MSRP in Canada. That's a savings of $1,700, but that doesn't mean the phone is $1,000. I am also holding the mic in this because the stand I have to boom it is not in my house, I am in the process of moving studios. I needed to re-shoot the A-Roll for this video on a whim, last night, because the audio did not record in the previous go-around. It doesn't hurt to be a reasonable person, you don't need to be negative in a comment.

[@randomname9758]

​@@valismindthere's not one negative thing about what I said.

[@YouTuberMe68]

No you sounded pretty negative ​@randomname9758

[@muffinzmuffin-qs7sb]

You're right, nobody's paying full price. Except that applies true to any phone. The price difference still remains. The FE is potentially a bad value at its current pricing because of that. There is nothing stopping anybody from trading in with any phone.

[@dataloting]

​@@randomname9758 Bro took the stand so personal 😅

[@Mrfoodiesubash]

People are so panic about the price look at the Samsung 24 Ultra . It was released in $1300 but now you can buy around $800-900 . Everyone knows Samsung phones are starts reduce the price after few months. just wait 4-5 months it will be less than $500 for sure. That's why I always say don't buy Samsung mobiles immediately after the release.

[@audreyatkins4007]

Tks for the great information on this phone. I can tell you know phones well. Just bought one on Black Friday prices.

[@saga363]

galaxy s24 was way better on this phone. size and weight really matters to me.

[@johnszatkowski6898]

Thank you for the "honest" review! You NAILED every aspect this phone offers. As YOU stated, this phone is bar FAR better than the S23FE Snapdragon 3 Gen1 that I used for a year. Also, I do NOT take "professional" picture/video and the S24FE is MORE than enough for most, which is on par with the S24+ unless you nit-pic. The S24FE is NO slouch and actually heats up LESS than an Exynos 2400 CPU under heavy loads, which is why they tuned down ONE core from 3.2Ghz to 3.1Gz with a LARGER heat chamber on the 2400e. It's very snappy and has yet to stumble on me yet as the Snapdragon S23FE did all the time as well as the HEAT. Now, as far as price, I got the S24FE in the USA for $609 with 256Gb of storage AND sold my S23FE for $290. So, the overall gains are MORE than worth it for the overall price I paid and selling my previous phone with the LONG seven-year update cycle. (I'll NEVER keep this phone for this long, btw!) I was a Samsung NOTE user for YEARS staring with the Note 3. My last Note was the 10+ 5g which I dropped and ended up replacing it with an S20FE which was actually FASTER and have NO need for the S-Pen and NO longer wish to PAY the INSANE price for the new ULTRA models. The FE is a GOOD compromise and the S24FE is enough for my needs that offers DEX, wireless charging, and reverse wireless charging for my buds, and has an improved battery life. The bezels are ALSO reduced on the 24FE vs. the 23FE and with a proper MAG-Safe case is hardly an issue.

[@tannerdefibaugh7495]

Same exact experience lol. Note user from 3 to 10 also

[@johnszatkowski6898]

@@tannerdefibaugh7495 LOL! They "got" too expensive after the Note 10+. I personally do not need all the bells and whistles at $1400 bucks that I'll never use. I hardly EVER used the S-Pen for example. Most "features" today work WELL without the S-Pen anymore! Like "Circle to search" and Gemini. Would NEVER PAY for a 1Tb storage version phone when you can EASILY swap-out content using an inexpensive Flash-Drive and I store NOTHING in the "cloud'!

[@iliftweight]

I bought it 3 days ago and its super fast 🏃‍♂️ Also cameras are nice The speaker also is OK Screen is great and performance is great Size is perfect for me and haptic feedback is good I also like the in hand feel of the device and it is a lighter than my iphone 15 plus Overall I think it will be staying with me for next 3 years atleast

[@jimmyhails]

At my local retail it's 593 dollars for the 256GB version, I guess I can wait for the price to drop around the time the A56 releases.

[@HansEgasan17]

Yeey 1st to like..keep it up bro... more power to you..more reviews to come

Thank youuuu!! i appreciate it :)

[@taxitrekking]

Here in the UK, I've seen £632 for the 128 gb model with 100gb data, and £681 for the 256gb model, with 100gb of data. Both on 2 year contracts. These are the lowest prices I could find after a quick look.

[@valismind]

Wow. That's $1129.99 CAD. The 128GB model is $919.99 CAD outright.

[@a9five]

​@@valismindshout-out to Canada I want to go to Calgary.

[@mattscott573]

I bought my 256gb S24 fe direct from Samsung 2 weeks ago. With the Blue Light discount and trading in my old S10 I paid £459, plus I got a free Galaxy Watch with it. A good deal indeed.

[@Lunarchuu]

I got the 256gb version for under 500£ today off the samsung website & ill be able to claim the watch as well once arrived. The samsung website right now has 10% discount on the device specifically

[@nocapproductions5471]

In Netherlands it is 600 euro vs regular S24 *checks prices*, also 600 euro 😅 At the moment nobody is buying it here, should have some discounts in a month or two

[@Impericallyfrozen]

Im going to be getting this for free with our phone plan with Verizon. In fact the cost of our plan will go down by 15 bucks per month. Its either this or tthe pixel 9. But i love the user interface on samsung and for 3 years i think itll do before i go flagship again

[@TusharArya76]

Samsung really messed up its FE line-up by increasing the size from 6.4 to 6.7 inches. I hope Samsung will continue to launch 6.1-6.2 screen sizes in its flagships.

[@BostanMaxim]

S25 will be the last small phone from samsung

[@TusharArya76]

@BostanMaxim ohh...if this will happen, then it will be a disastrous move by Samsung.

Hey mate, is S23FE still good or not? Im thinking about to buy it since the price is going down after S24FE out

[@Happy123-45]

In Canada, the S24FE is $0 for black friday. Free if you get a two year plan. Free! I'm getting it this week because it's free and it's good enough. Yes, there are better phones out there but it doesn't beat free. Not spending extra money on a phone. Big screen, decent camera, decent processor, what's not to like? I'm not spending extra for a flagship phone. A few years ago with this spec, this would have been a flagship phone. I'm not an instagramer. I don't need perfect pictures. Thanks for the review!!

[@sg2326]

Which Provider is offering it for Free? How much per month for a 2 year plan? Thanks

[@rudybriskar5267]

Watching just for shits and giggles. I have the S24 Plus. I used the Ultra for years and I was disappointed when Samsung merged the Ultra and the Note series. 8:09

[@icedcoffeecapricorn]

I still like my decision of buying the S21FE over the S21 Plus.

[@mykeabbah8396]

I cant bring myself to upgrade cos the phone size, chip, and main camera is the the only upgrade from my s20 fe. Everything else is similar but the s20 fe thas a 32mp selfie, sd card up to 1TB. It feels like a rip off if i upgrade.

[@vaultboy1419]

But this isn't a midranger. A55 is. This is still a flagship, just with some lesser features compared to the regular S24.

[@lggr2261]

2400e is actually the underclocked version of 2400 which beats the crap out of 8gen3 in gaming and with vulkan ie android 15 its going to shine as amd gpu does not support open gl by deafualt so they use angle an overlay to run these games while snapdragon also needs angle to run vulkun games

I find it odd that here in Australia the fe is costlier , S24 8/256 is $1137 and the S24FE 8/256 is $1187 . My backup old HTC phone now does not function as a phone because 3g has just been turned off and it doesn't support VoLTE so my current Samsung will become the backup and I'm in the market for a new main phone .
