Samsung Galaxy S24 FE Moniker and Model Numbers Reportedly Spotted Online

Samsung is said to be working on the Fan Edition of the Galaxy S24. The company launched its Galaxy S24 series of smartphones earlier this year, and Galaxy S24 FE, a pared back version of Samsung’s flagship phones, could arrive later this year. Now, the Fan Edition handset has reportedly been spotted online, with the listing suggesting the moniker and model numbers of the smartphone.

Android Headlines reportedly spotted the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE online, suggesting the manufacturer, market name, brand, and model numbers of the phone. The Galaxy S24 FE was reportedly listed with model numbers SM-S721B, SM-S721U, SM-S721W, and SM-S721N. The report claimed that the upcoming handset will officially be launched in markets like Americas, Korea, and Canada, in addition to be being sold globally.

The listing did not reveal any other details about the Galaxy S24 FE, including its specifications and launch timeline. Samsung has not yet confirmed its plans for the handset, as well. However, several reports and rumours have suggested that the company is working to bring the phone to market sometime later this year or in early 2025.

A report earlier this week had claimed that the South Korean technology giant was working on a new smartphone, codenamed R12. The codename corresponds to previous phones in the Fan Edition lineup — Galaxy S23 FE was associated with the R11 codename. R12 could thus refer to the upcoming Galaxy S24 FE.

Additionally, the report also claimed that the planned launch of the phone — earlier believed to be heading for a summer debut this year — had likely been pushed. Based on the current state of development, the Galaxy S24 FE is now said to arrive towards the end of 2024 or early 2025.

Earlier this month, the phone was reported to be planned for launch earlier than the usual release cycle of Fan Edition smartphones. The Samsung Galaxy S23 FE was launched in October last year, but its successor was said to arrive earlier in the summer of 2024.

Little is known about the upcoming smartphone from Samsung, but the Galaxy S24 FE has previously been tipped to feature a 6.1-inch AMOLED display. The phone is expected to run on either the Exynos 2400 or the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, depending on the market.

Samsung is reportedly also readying a Fan Edition of the Galaxy Watch, a cheaper Galaxy Watch model that could debut with a different moniker. The wearable, said to be under development, could launch as a refreshed Galaxy Watch 4.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Series to Run on Snapdragon and Exynos Chipsets: Report

Samsung launched the Galaxy S24 series running on Snapdragon and in-house Exynos chipsets in January. The South Korean technology conglomerate was tipped last month to fully switch to Exynos SoCs for the entire Galaxy S25 lineup next year. A new report, however, contradicts the claim and says that Samsung will once again opt to split its Galaxy S25 smartphones between Snapdragon and Exynos chipsets. The company will reportedly utilise Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and Exynos 2500 chipsets for its next generation of flagship Galaxy S series smartphones.

According to a report by DigiTimes Asia (via SamMobile), Samsung will stick with its strategy of using both Qualcomm and Exynos chipsets for its Galaxy S series smartphones. The report does not specify which phones in the lineup will run on Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, but we can expect the Qualcomm SoC to feature on the top-of-the-line Galaxy S25 Ultra in all markets. Other phones in the series — likely to be Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+ — could feature the Exynos 2500 chipset or Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, depending on the region where they are sold.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 globally, while the in-house Exynos 2400 SoC powers the base Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ in markets outside the US, including India.

Last month, a rumour claimed that Samsung may use either an Exynos SoC or a Snapdragon chip, depending on the region, even on the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 foldables. This would be a departure from Samsung’s usual practice of packing Snapdragon processors in its Galaxy Z Fold and Galaxy Z Flip smartphones.

Samsung is also working on closing the performance gap between Qualcomm and Exynos chipsets. Last week, a tipster claimed that the company’s Exynos 2500 processor outperformed the current Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC in terms of both CPU and GPU performance. The claim, however, was not backed by any performance metrics and benchmark numbers.

While there are no benchmarks available yet, the Exynos 2500 chipset is said to comprise a Cortex-X5 core clocked at 3.2GHz or more, three Cortex-A730 cores at up to 2.5GHz, two more Cortex-A730 cores, and four Cortex-A520 cores with undisclosed clock speeds.

Early in March, the Galaxy S25 series was tipped to run entirely on Samsung’s Exynos chipset. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset, meanwhile, has been confirmed to launch with a custom Oryon CPU at the Snapdragon Summit in October. The chipset is expected to power upcoming flagship Android phones like Samsung Galaxy S25, Xiaomi 15 series, and Asus Zenfone 11.

Samsung Galaxy S24 Series to Feature Baidu’s Ernie AI Chatbot in China

Samsung Electronics will feature Baidu’s Ernie Bot as a key attraction of its new Galaxy S24 smartphone series in China.

The South Korean maker has pitched its latest handset family as the first of a wave of AI smartphones, and Baidu’s artificial intelligence tools will help with text summarization, organization and translation, Baidu said in a statement. It will also provide the backend support for Samsung’s “circle to search” feature, which is handled by Alphabet’s Google in other markets.

Google’s Android software provides the backbone for the majority of smartphones in China, but the company’s add-on mobile services and app store are not available, leaving it to local companies to fill gaps with alternatives like Tencent Holdings’s WeChat.

For Baidu, the Samsung deal marks a major adopter of its Ernie AI, one of the earliest and best efforts to create a Chinese challenger to OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

Samsung’s market share has crumbled in the world’s largest smartphone arena in past years to roughly 1-2 percent, crowded out by Apple’s iPhones as well as local brands from Xiaomi to Huawei Technologies. Showcasing Ernie prominently might appeal to its millions of existing users, as the Korean company safeguards its global presence and tries to pioneer a new mainstream category with foldables.

Samsung Galaxy S24 Listed for Sale Ahead of Launch: Report

Samsung is all set to reveal the Galaxy S24 series at its Galaxy Unpacked event later this week, with pre-bookings said to begin a few days later. Customers should likely be getting their new flagship Galaxy S-series handsets later this month. Ahead of the Galaxy S24 series launch, however, a Mexican retailer has already started selling the upcoming flagship smartphones. While Samsung has remained tight-lipped about the phones, various leaks and rumours have detailed specifications and features of the Galaxy S24 series.

Tipster Roland Quandt, in a now deleted post on X, shared screenshots of a retail listing for the Galaxy S24. According to a Phone Arena report, Mexican retailer Doto listed the 128GB and 256GB storage variants of the Galaxy S24, with the pricing set at MXN 16,499 (roughly Rs. 81,000) and MXN 17,999 (roughly Rs. 88,400), respectively.

The screenshot of the Galaxy S24 listing page shows that only 10 units of the 128GB variant of the phone were in stock. And while the listing shows a Buy Now button, it’s unlikely that the retailer would start shipping the phones ahead of planned release.

Leaks about the Galaxy S24 lineup have taken over the Internet ahead of the Galaxy Unpacked event scheduled for January 17. Last week, tipster Ishan Agarwal claimed on X that Samsung would open pre-bookings for its upcoming flagship handsets in India between January 18 and January 19. The tipster also added that early deliveries for pre-booked handsets would begin “as soon as January 24.”

Meanwhile, German publication WinFuture.de has leaked the full specifications for the Galaxy S24 series ahead of its unveiling. Samsung Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ will reportedly run on an Exynos 2400 chipset in European regions and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC in other markets. The Snapdragon chipset will likely power the Galaxy S24 Ultra across all regions.

The Galaxy S24 is said to feature a 6.2-inch full-HD+ (1,080×2,340 pixels) dynamic AMOLED display with up to 120Hz refresh rate. The phone will likely be available in 128GB and 256GB storage options. In the camera department, the Galaxy S24 is expected to sport a triple rear camera unit, comprising a 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 12-megapixel ultra wide-angle lens, and a 10-megapixel telephoto sensor with 3x optical zoom. The phone could pack a 4,000mAh battery.

Samsung’s Galaxy S24+, on the other hand, will reportedly feature a bigger 6.7-inch (1,440×3,120 pixels) dynamic AMOLED display and a bigger 4,900mAh battery. While it will sport the same camera system as the base model, it could arrive in 256GB and 512GB storage options.

The top-of-the-line Galaxy S24 Ultra is said to get a 6.8-inch QHD+ dynamic AMOLED display. The flagship phone will likely come in 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB storage options with 12GB of RAM. The phone is said to sport a quad rear camera setup, comprising a 200-megapixel primary camera, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide sensor, a 50-megapixel telephoto shooter with 5x optical zoom, and an additional 10-megapixel telephoto lens with support for 3x optical zoom. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is likely to get a Titanium frame, popularised by the iPhone 15 pro models, and could pack a 5,000mAh battery.

Samsung Previews ‘Galaxy AI,’ Live Call Translation Feature for Galaxy Phones

Samsung has been trying to catch up to the AI frenzy as manufacturers around the world race to infuse AI-powered features and tools to their products and services. The South Korean technology conglomerate is also said to be planning to launch its next generation of flagship smartphones, the Galaxy S24 series, with AI capabilities. Now, the company has provided a preview of ‘Galaxy AI,’ Samsung’s AI-powered mobile experience that promises to simplify productivity, boost creativity, and change the way users interact with their phones. Samsung also announced a live call translation feature that utilises artificial intelligence.

In a newsroom post on Thursday, Samsung provided a glimpse of Galaxy AI, an on-device universal intelligence that the company claims can perform a variety of tasks. “Galaxy AI is a comprehensive mobile AI experience, powered by both on-device AI developed at Samsung and cloud-based AI enabled by our open collaborations with like-minded industry leaders,” the post said. “It will transform your everyday mobile experience with the peace of mind you count on from Galaxy security and privacy.”

Galaxy AI is coming early next year, Samsung says, but there’s no word on a release date. One could expect the company to bundle its AI offering with its next Galaxy S series of smartphones. Samsung is speculated to unveil the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra in January 2024, which aligns with the launch timeline provided for Galaxy AI.

Samsung also provided sparse details on an AI Live Translate Call feature that would work as a personal translator for Galaxy phone users. The translation tool will be integrated with the native calling feature and will provide audio and text translations of your call in real-time as you speak. Samsung says the feature would be powered by on-device Galaxy AI and would thus ensure that your conversations remain private.

“Galaxy AI is our most comprehensive intelligence offering to date, and it will change how we think about our phones forever,” Wonjoon Choi, EVP and Head of R&D, Mobile eXperience Business, said in the post.

Last month, it was reported that Samsung’s Galaxy S24 series would come packed with AI features. According to the report, Samsung wants to make the upcoming Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra “the smartest AI phones ever”, surpassing even Google’s latest Pixel 8 lineup. The upcoming phones could include AI features resembling popular chatbots like ChatGPT and Google Bard.

Google launched the Pixel 8 and the Pixel 8 Pro last month with AI-backed features like Magic Editor and Audio Eraser. The phones, powered by the Tensor G3 chipset, bring AI integration to many of Google’s native apps and services. It seems Samsung now intends to do the same with its Galaxy smartphones.

Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 alongside the Galaxy Tab S9 series and Galaxy Watch 6 series at its first Galaxy Unpacked event in South Korea. We discuss the company’s new devices and more on the latest episode of Orbital, the Gadgets 360 podcast. Orbital is available on Spotify, Gaana, JioSaavn, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music and wherever you get your podcasts.

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Display Might Not Be as Bright as OnePlus 12, Leaked Specifications Suggest

OnePlus 12 could be equipped with the brightest display on a smartphone in the coming months, according to details of another flagship smartphone recently leaked by a tipster. The purported successor to the OnePlus 11 is expected to make its debut with Qualcomm’s yet-to-be-announced Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC under the hood. The Chinese smartphone maker could launch the OnePlus 12 with an OLED display that is brighter than both the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra or the recently launched iPhone 15 Pro Max.

According to details leaked by tipster Revegnus (@Tech_Reve) on Twitter citing information obtained from Samsung Display, the regular Samsung Galaxy S24 model will be equipped with an ‘M13’ display with low-temperature polycrystalline oxide (LTPO) technology — and a peak brightness of 2,500 nits. These specifications will remain the same for the Samsung Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24 Plus, and Galaxy S24 Ultra — aside from the screen’s resolution.

This means that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra will be brighter than the iPhone 15 Pro Max and the Pixel 8 Pro which offer peak brightness levels of 2,000 nits and 2,400 nits, respectively. However, even the Galaxy S24 Ultra might not be as bright as the next flagship phone from OnePlus.

Tipster Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese) recently leaked some of the display specifications of the OnePlus 12 on Weibo, the Chinese microblogging website. According to the tipster, the OnePlus 12 will offer a peak brightness of 2,600 nits. This is an impressive upgrade from the smartphone maker’s existing flagship model, the OnePlus 11, which only supports a maximum of 1,300 nits of brightness.

In addition to the improved brightness levels, OnePlus 12 will be equipped with a 6.82-inch curved LTPO AMOLED display with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and a resolution of 1,440 x 3,168 pixels. The handset will also offer support for 2,160Hz PWM dimming when it is used in low light scenarios, according to the details shared by the tipster.
