Galaxy S24 FE support page goes up on Samsung France, launch should be close | Infinium-tech
In April, U.K. carrier EE listed a “Samsung Galaxy S721 FE” with model number SM-S24U. Now Samsung France has a support page for the SM-S721B, so the new FE is definitely on the way. Normally, “U” stands for the U.S., while “B” stands for European units (including units sold in the U.K.), so the EE listing was probably a mistake.
Anyway, we’ve also spotted the SM-S721B model number in a Geekbench test, which revealed that the phone uses an Exynos 2400 paired with 8GB of RAM. This is the same chipset found in the European (and other) Galaxy S24 and S24+ units.
Last year’s Galaxy S23 FE used chipsets that were a generation behind the main S23 series – Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (and Exynos 2100) vs Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. However, the S21 FE and S20 FE have used the same generation of chips as the main series, so it’s a return to form.
The phone mentioned on the Samsung France support page is specifically the SM-S721B/DS, i.e. the dual-SIM version. This means it has a slot for two SIM cards, but it should also have an eSIM.
Another leak tells us that the Galaxy S24 FE will use the same 50MP 1/1.57” camera as the S24 and S24+, with the other two cameras being the same as well. It is expected to come in six colors: Mint, Cream, Purple, Indigo, Graphite, and Tangerine.
The Galaxy S24 FE announcement schedule is unknown – early indications were for a late 2024 announcement, but some sources claim it will happen in early 2025. For what it’s worth, the S23 FE was announced on October 5, 2023. And with the support page going live, we think it’s coming soon.
