Samsung Galaxy S24 FE Revealed in Leaked Official Unboxing Video

Galaxy S24 FE showcased in leaked official unboxing video

While we wait for concrete official information, a leaked unboxing video has basically revealed the upcoming Galaxy S24 FE. Samsung regularly shares official unboxing videos _after_ the official launch of a product, but thanks to Evan Blass - who shared the clip on Twitter - we're getting a glimpse of the entire color lineup plus some more confirmation of the upcoming Galaxy AI feature-set. Other leaks have unveiled some of the other details, but this video shows just what (or isn't) coming in the official Galaxy S24 FE retail packaging. As is customary in 2024, there is no charger, but you will get a USB-C cable, some documentation, and a SIM tool alongside your Galaxy S24 FE unit. The leaked Galaxy S24 FE unboxing video gives us a closer look at the upcoming color options including Blue, Graphite, Gray, Mint, and Yellow. While some of the specs are touted including Samsung's "ProVisual Engine" which should improve low-light imagery, the full camera specs are also confirmed. These include a 10MP selfie camera, 50MP main sensor, 12MP ultra-wide, and 8MP 3x optical zoom. One of the biggest notable changes here is explicit confirmation of the chipset. The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is set to utilize the Exynos 2400e chipset, this is an underclocked version of the regular Exynos 2400. This aligns with previous leaks, which indicated the same. There is also an improved 1900-nit peak brightness on the 6.7-inch 120Hz FHD+ AMOLED display which is coated in Gorilla Glass Victus. The entire device is going to be powered by a 4,700mAh battery and will include an IP68 rating. The only thing missing from the Galaxy S24 FE unboxing video is the supposed pricing, which is suggested to start at $649 this year. That's a $50 bump over the previous generation, but these upgrades might be of interest to anyone wanting a "premium" mid-range experience.

The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE has leaked in an official-looking video, revealing almost everything you need to know

We're expecting Samsung to announce the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE soon, but you don't need to wait for that elusive date to learn about the upcoming phone, because a seemingly official unboxing video has leaked, showing off the handset and revealing many of its key specs. The video was shared by @evleaks on X, and, as his account is private, you won't be able to watch it if you don't follow him. We have, however, included an image from the video below. As you can see, the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE shown here looks a lot like it does in previous leaks, with a triple-lens camera running down the back. It also has a flat screen with a punch-hole camera at the top. The unboxing element of the video shows that, as well as the phone itself, you get a USB-C charging cable, a SIM card removal tool, and a quick start guide - standard stuff, but the video also lists various specs and other details of the phone. These include the colors, with the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE said to be coming in blue, graphite, gray, mint, and yellow shades. The phone is also listed as having a 50MP main camera, a 12MP ultra-wide one, and an 8MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom, along with a 10MP selfie camera. Those are the same specs as the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE's camera, but the video states that this is the most powerful camera system ever on a Galaxy FE. That's seemingly because of the ProVisual Engine, which is a suite of AI-powered tools found across the Samsung Galaxy S24 line, and which the video claims allows for "stunning low-light portraits." Other listed specs include an Exynos 2400e chipset, which is believed to be a slightly less powerful version of the Exynos 2400 used in some versions of the Samsung Galaxy S24. A 17-centimeter screen is also listed, which translates to 6.69 inches. Samsung would likely market that as 6.7 inches, and that's quite a jump on the 6.4-inch panel of the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE. The screen is also unsurprisingly listed as having a Full HD+ resolution, along with a peak brightness of 1,900 nits (up from 1,450 nits on the current model). The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE's battery is apparently 4,700mAh (up from 4,500mAh on the S23 FE), allowing for up to 28 hours of video viewing, and the phone is said to have an aluminum frame, Gorilla Glass Victus+ on the front and back, and an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance. It's also listed as supporting Galaxy AI. Of course, we'd still take this video with a pinch of salt, but given how official it looks, and that it comes from a leaker with a superb track record, we'd be very surprised if this wasn't the real deal. We'll probably find out very soon, as leaks suggest the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is being announced on September 26.

Samsung's entire Galaxy S24 FE sales pitch was just spoiled in this leaked video

Key Takeaways Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S24 FE appeared in a newly leaked promotional video. It'll come in several colors, use Samsung's new Exynos 2400e chipset, and feature a larger, brighter display than last year. The Galaxy S24 FE is rumored to cost $650, which could make it a difficult buy next to discounted Galaxy S24+ models. If leaks are to be believed, the Galaxy S24 FE is just days away from an official unveiling. It remains to be seen whether Samsung's latest budget flagship offering will bring back the glory days of the Galaxy S20 FE -- what a bargain that phone was -- or something more in line with the relative disappointments of that device's successors. After a price leak over the weekend that seemingly points to a more expensive experience, we're getting our first glimpse at some official marketing materials thanks to a new leak. Today's official unboxing comes from Evan Blass, otherwise known as Evleaks, who shared this leaked video on his (private) Twitter account earlier today. While this 85-second promotional reel doesn't give away everything about the Galaxy S24 FE -- specs are kept to a minimum, and there's no sign of an official price tag -- there's still plenty to learn about Samsung's new phone. And, perhaps more importantly, we're getting a good idea of how the Korean smartphone giant wants to market this particular device. This promotional video doesn't leave much to the imagination Let's take this video (YouTube copy here) step-by-step. Unsurprisingly, the Galaxy S24 FE looks a lot like the rest of Samsung's non-Ultra models, though with some new colors to choose from. Blue, Graphite, Gray, Mint, and Yellow are all familiar hues from Samsung's clamshell lineup, and they're here on the new FE. In addition to showcasing the colors on the box, this video also details what you'll find inside, and frankly, it's not much. The usual assortment of paperwork, a SIM tool, and a charging cable proves you aren't getting much else for your (rumored) $650, but then again, the $1,900 Galaxy Z Fold 6 doesn't include any additional accessories either, so no big shock. Some glamor shots of the overall design reveal Samsung has swapped to a stock silver aluminum frame around the edge, rather than sticking with the matching color bands like on the standard Galaxy S24 and S24+. The display's been upgraded to a brighter 17cm FHD+ -- that's roughly 6.7-inches, for my fellow Americans -- a big upgrade from the 6.4-inch panel used on the Galaxy S23 FE. Samsung claims its camera system is the most powerful yet on an FE-branded phone, though considering last year's camera left us unimpressed, it's not a hard bar to clear. The video isn't particularly specific on specs, though it does call out a "hyper-realistic gaming experience" thanks to the Exynos 2400e chipset powering the device. Ignoring that the "realistic" gaming Samsung is highlighting here includes a dragon -- big Genji vibes here, guys -- that does seem to back up what we'd already heard about this phone's performance. The Exynos 2400e is rumored to be an underclocked variant of the standard Exynos 2400 that should represent a big step up from the Exynos 2200 used last year. The specs we do learn are pretty solid, though -- at least on paper. 1,900 nits of peak brightness might not be impressive in the flagship world, but for this price, it's solid. The same goes for the 4,700mAh battery, a big upgrade over last year's phone. Perhaps the most surprising thing about this video is just how little attention is given to Galaxy AI. Despite delivering a decent summary of the Galaxy S24 FE's marquee features, Samsung's much-hyped suite of AI tools doesn't get a mention until the very end with a simple "Galaxy AI is here" tagline. This was a huge aspect of both its Galaxy S24 and Galaxy Z-series lineups this year, and considering the (relatively) lower cost of entry with the FE-series, I'm shocked it didn't get more of a mention. Really, the big question mark around the Galaxy S24 FE is, once again, if it needs to exist. It's like a cheaper take on the Galaxy S24+, but considering that phone is heavily discounted on carrier plans -- $8.33 per month on T-Mobile, $5 per month on Verizon, free on AT&T -- it's unclear who, exactly, this is for. Either way, keep an eye out for a launch coming as soon as this week; September 26th is the rumored announcement date.
