The Galaxy S24 FE is expected to be revealed in the near future, and a new leak has just detailed the price that consumers in the US will likely pay for the upcoming phone. This is not the first time that pricing details have surfaced about Samsung’s next Fan Edition device. Back on September 12, leaked information surfaced on what the Galaxy S24 FE would cost in Europe. In that report, it was noted that the 128GB model of the phone would have a starting cost of €749.
It was also mentioned that last year’s Galaxy S23 FE in the 128GB model had a cost of €699. This makes this year’s version of the Fan Edition phone about €50 more expensive. While that report did mention pricing details for the phone, nothing about the US price tag was given. However, it was possible to draw conclusions based on the exchange rate if you desired to do so.
But that’s no longer necessary because the US pricing for the phone has leaked, and it supports the earlier leak in that the price is going to be higher this year.
Leak says Samsung’s Galaxy S24 FE will have a $649 starting price in the US
According to the latest leak, US pricing for the Galaxy S24 FE will start at $649. This will be for the 128GB model. This is $50 more than the Galaxy S23 FE cost in the US last year. So it seems that the Europe pricing leak may have been correct. Additionally, the leak (which comes from Smartprix) says that the 256GB model will be $709. So consumers will have two choices here just like last year.
While $50 doesn’t seem like a lot, it might be just enough to turn some consumers off. Pushing them instead to one of Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S devices. Especially if they’re able to get any of them during a sale. Samsung also increased the pricing of its Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 this year compared to the previous year’s models. So perhaps a price increase with the upcoming Fan Edition phone was to be expected.
Samsung may be launching the phone on September 26
The pricing hasn’t been confirmed but multiple leaks supporting these new prices would suggest they’re probably accurate. As for when the phone will launch, it seems that it may be this week. At least in some regions.
A leak from September 20 notes that Samsung indirectly mentioned the launch date for the Galaxy S24 FE in Vietnam, which is supposed to be September 26. This may also be the launch date for the phone globally, although it’s unclear right now if that will be the case.
