We’ve been discussing Samsung Galaxy S24 FE leaks for a long time. Here’s another one to pique your interest in the soon-to-be-announced phone. It comes from an unboxing video posted by leaker Evan Blass (and spotted by 9to5Google).

The new video shows that Samsung’s next “fan edition” phone is expected to launch in five colors: Blue, Graphite, Gray, Mint, and Yellow. It also shows that Samsung’s “ProVisual Engine” is present on the phone to improve lowlight imagery.

Full camera specs have also been confirmed: a 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 12MP ultrawide camera, an 8MP 3x optical zoom camera, and a 10MP selfie camera.

Finally, the Galaxy S24 FE box contains a USB-C cable, documentation, and a SIM tool. Not surprisingly, a charger is missing.

Based on previous leaks, the Galaxy S24 FE is expected to feature a 6.7-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 1900 nits. The device is anticipated to be equipped with a Samsung Exynos 2400e processor. Like the previous year’s model, the Galaxy S24 FE will probably have an aluminum body.

Samsung is expected to announce the Galaxy S24 FE in the near future, and this latest leak tends to confirm that. The previous model, the Galaxy S23 FE, was launched in October 2023.

The starting price of last year’s Galaxy S23 FE was $599. Unfortunately, according to one new report, the S24 FE could get a price hike to $649. That would obviously be less than ideal, especially considering the main draw of the FE line has been lower prices compared to the regular Galaxy S lineup. Nothing is confirmed just yet, so we’ll have to wait and see how this shakes out.

Samsung resumes rollout of Android 15-based One UI 7 for Galaxy phones

Samsung had a rather rough start with the release of its heavily anticipated One UI 7 update. After a string of delays, the company finally started seeding the update for a handful of its flagship phones, but abruptly paused it, citing vague issues. Thankfully, the rollout is back on track. 

Updates tracker, Tarun Vats, shared on X that the stable One UI 7 update is now appearing for Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy S24 users in multiple regions across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and the US.

It looks like the big Galaxy S24 One UI 7 update is about to restart

If you’ve got a Samsung Galaxy S24 in your hand, then it’s time to start checking the software update page again, as it appears the much-delayed One UI 7 update has restarted in South Korea. It means there’s a strong chance it will also be sent out to global Galaxy S24-series phones in the near future. 

Samsung phone owners will be aware of how much hassle the One UI 7 update has been for the brand’s top 2024 smartphones. Not only has it been a long-time coming — One UI 7 arrived with the Galaxy S25 in January — but when it did eventually arrive last week, a serious flaw related to locking and unlocking the phone was discovered and the update was abruptly stopped.

Samsung’s One UI 7 update makes the Galaxy S24 Ultra feel like new

I’d been refreshing the Software Update menu on my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra for a few days, expectantly waiting for One UI 7 to arrive. Then, on the morning of April 10, it was suddenly available and I eagerly installed it. Samsung’s One UI 7 software over Android 15 on the Galaxy S25 Ultra is a big success, but what would it be like on 2024’s flagship Galaxy phone?
Not a massive update?

To my surprise, the One UI 7 update on the Galaxy S24 Ultra is modestly sized, and took less than three minutes to download and install on my phone. It did so without any issue too, and aside from a few setup screens to navigate through — one for accessing Google Gemini, and another showing the new Galaxy AI features — my phone was operational again in moments.
