Now that they support the software for 7 years. I'm gonna get the s24 for cheap 2 years from now and still got software support for 5 years

Its always the Fan Edition because I'm a samsung fan ☺️😅

hmmm its hard to tell the camera differenc coz the photos were taken at different setting, angle & time taken...i dont see a comparison there

How much longer will it take for the team at GSMArena to understand that recording and playing the phone speakers through YouTube and listening it via our normal phone speakers or headphones is a wildly inaccurate representation of judging a phones speaker quality. It would make much more sense to show a graph and a number rating to score the audio quality. Cheers from a long time fan.

While I'm usually all for big screens, I think the normal S24 is gonna be my next phone. Plus it's easier to find custom cases for the 24 than the FE in personal experience with my current S20 FE
Now just gotta count down the days until Black Week/Friday sales and snag the phone for cheap

Edit: Got the S24 at an amazing deal, great phone, 100% worth gettkng

[andreipop]

why not compare with the s24 plus because of the screen size?

[caspercat]

I Went through 3 S24's within 3 weeks back in july. All had different, major hardware and camera issues. Debating whether to give Samsung one more chance and to risk the S24FE or go for the Google Pixel 9 Pro.

[LebohangMathe]

Really wanted the S24 but the prices here in South Africa are mad crazy😢

[chrryy_yyy]

Two weeks ago I got the S24, no complaints about it at all

[lukatore]

My operator T-mobile is offering S24 FE on a two year contract for 39€/month with 5000 minutes and 40gb at flat rate included. That's 950. Great deal.

Been using the S24 since April and its been the best phone ive ever owned and VERY HEAVILY used as well with NO problems whatsoever! Absolutely recommended the S24!

Eagerly waiting delivery.
Will sell the 2nd set for a profit

S24. If you dig enough, can find a new S24 from a genuine seller with warranty lesser than S24FE like I did for my wife. The premium built, LTPO display, Ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, PDAF front cam, sound quality and and consistently slim bezel all around makes it miles better choice. Unless you want a bigger display with a little dated looking bezel. I have tweaked the S24 (exynos) for the best battery life and so far it's exceedingly satisfactory. Using a S23U, the compact feeling of s24 on hand is freshly amazing. I definitely felt it more premium than S24FE.

Bro i am planning to take new mobile can you suggest one s24, S24 Fe or S24 ultra plz 🙏

[danny-hzte]

I've been a huge oppo and one plus fan for ages but ee don't seem to have either of the newer ones anymore. I'm probably going to go for the fe edition, seems better priced and very similar to the standard s24. Got to save money these days

[kartiksolanki]

Better I'll buy Samsung galaxy s24 ..because I loved those thin bezels
