What customers don't like about Samsung Galaxy S24 FE (8GB + 256GB)

  • Notably thick and non-uniform screen bezels, especially the bottom 'chin'.
  • Slow 25W wired charging speeds compared to competitors in the same price tier.
  • Heavier and bulkier design that can be difficult to use one-handed.
  • Camera quality is merely 'average' compared to flagships, with some issues in color accuracy and zoom.
  • Potential for minor heating issues during intensive gaming sessions.
  • Limited 8GB RAM variant may restrict heavy multitasking.

Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE (8GB RAM + 256GB storage variant) is a near-flagship smartphone offering a robust set of features at a more accessible price point. Key specs include a 6.7-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and 1,900 nits peak brightness, powered by the Samsung Exynos 2400e processor. Its versatile camera system features a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 12MP ultrawide lens, and an 8MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, all of which benefit from the integrated Galaxy AI features like Photo Assist and Circle to Search. A solid 4,700mAh battery provides excellent all-day life, complemented by an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance and an impressive seven years of promised OS and security updates. However, compromises include slower 25W wired charging and 15W wireless charging compared to some competitors, the use of an optical rather than ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, and the phone can get slightly warm under heavy use.
