Fresh Galaxy S25 FE leak details storage variants and color options ahead of fall announcement
By no means Samsung's most exciting 2025 product, the Galaxy S25 Fan Edition has been making headlines for several months now, seemingly preparing quite a few important upgrades over its fall 2024-released predecessor. Of course, not everything about the inexpensive Galaxy S24 FE powerhouse will be changed this fall, and the latest rumor on X claims to reveal a couple of the key specifications unlikely to get an upgrade along with a very interesting (and largely reimagined) color palette. Navy; Icyblue; Jetblack; White. Because Samsung is not Motorola, there are no spectacularly eye-catching or groundbreaking new hues on the above list. But as familiar as those four colorways are likely to sound to many of the company's hardcore fans, it's definitely worth pointing out how different they actually are to the S24 FE's paint jobs. This terribly blurry picture is our first look at the upcoming Galaxy S25 FE in one of its expected color options. | Image Credit -- Evan Blass on X Last year's Galaxy S24 Fan Edition is available in blue, graphite, gray, mint, and yellow, so Samsung is basically looking to change all those options this year, which is both good and bad in my book. While I'm certainly excited to check out the S25 FE in the "vanilla" S25's Icyblue shade, not to mention a Galaxy S25 Ultra-style Jetblack colorway (sans the titanium build, of course), I can't say I'm too pleased with the prospect of Samsung killing off the sleek mint and yellow options. Then again, that list leaked by the generally reliable Arsène Lupin, aka @MysteryLupin, on X may not be comprehensive, so let's not abandon all hope of seeing the Galaxy S25 FE released in flashier hues as well. To date, the handset has been pictured in a white color, mind you, so that's probably the only version completely etched in stone for the time being. 128GB storage + 8GB RAM; 256GB storage + 8GB RAM. Now that's a completely unsurprising (and largely underwhelming) "list", which predictably starts at 128 gigs of local digital hoarding room and disappointingly lacks both a 512GB storage variant and 12GB memory option. Clearly, Samsung is primarily focused on keeping the S25 FE's price point as low as possible, although it's probably not very realistic to hope that the new phone will be cheaper than its predecessor. Instead, I expect the S24 FE's $650 starting price to go unchanged, making Samsung's 2025 Fan Edition handset significantly costlier than Google's Pixel 9a, for instance, but also most likely cheaper than the "vanilla" Pixel 10. The S25 FE could be just as affordable (or as expensive) as the S24 FE. | Image Credit -- PhoneArena Despite rocking a slimmer waist and an overall more elegant design, the S25 Fan Edition is impressively also tipped to bump up its predecessor's battery capacity from 4,700 to 4,900mAh. Unfortunately, no major improvements for the 50 + 8 + 12MP triple rear-facing camera system have been reported so far, and the 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display is virtually guaranteed to stay unchanged in terms of size and resolution as well. All in all, Samsung is certainly not looking to revolutionize affordable Android high-enders here, nonetheless aiming to make you an offer you can't refuse in September or October... if you can't afford or don't like the compact Galaxy S25 for whatever reason.

Get a free Samsung Galaxy Watch - tech editor shares where to find it
Our tech commerce editor has found a way to get a Samsung smartwatch for free A smartwatch is often considered one of the best accessories to pair with a phone, a close contender to a speedy pair of wireless earphones. Whether it's the newest Apple Watch Ultra, a flagship Galaxy Watch, or a cheaper fitness-based alternative like Fitbit or Garmin. Anyone on the lookout for an Android-pairing wearable, we've found a way to get a Samsung Watch completely free. The Galaxy Watch7 BT usually retails for more than £280, but it's been slashed to £0 for Carphone Warehouse shoppers. The catch is, consumers will have to buy a Samsung mobile to claim the 2024 model. As a tech commerce editor, scouring sites for deals and standout perks is something I do each day, and it's not often you see a free smartwatch offered to shoppers - I've rounded up exactly what shoppers need to do to qualify. First up, the handset. The deal is only available on the S24 FE device, the 'fan edition' of last year's S range. As a quick background, this model is designed to offer similar features to the Galaxy S24 range but cuts back on processor speeds and sensors to justify the cheaper price. Another thing worth flagging to S24 FE shoppers, is the handsets cameras aren't as advanced as the standard S24 range. In comparison to the S24 usual £759 price - or now £659 in Samsung's sale - the S24 FE is £599 at Carphone Warehouse. But there's also the option to pick an iD Mobile plan and spread the cost across a 24-month plan - although we'd should point out that this comes with an £89.99 upfront fee. Buying a brand-new mobile isn't the only way to get a good deal on a wearable accessory. Amazon is offering a cheaper price on the fitness Fitbit trackers - this Inspire 3 model is now £58.99. The Garmin Forerunner, which is a step up from Fitbit with advanced training guidance, is reduced to £122.99 at Amazon too. The next point to flag is crucial, and not one made obvious on the shopping listing. The free watch is only available to claim to shoppers who pick a specific colour of the S24 FE mobile - green to be precise. This can be found in the small print of the Samsung T&C's - which we trailed through, here. Once Samsung shoppers have bought the Galaxy S23 FE mobile, they have 30 days after purchase to claim the £0 Galaxy Watch, of course with proof of purchase and by the July 29 deadline. And there's lots of retailer options. Personally, this is a part of the offer which I rate, as shoppers can take their own time to compare prices about the participating retailers. Which include Sky Mobile, so ideal for pay-as-you-go consumers, Very, Asda Mobile and Argos (to name a few). For those contemplating rival Sky Mobile, the handset starts at £18 per month, with data added on top. The provider is also running an offer on data anyone who picks 25GB of monthly data will get it doubled for free for a 12-month period. The only downside to Sky is its longer plans, which compared to the above 24-month iD Mobile plan, it's a much longer contract at a minimum 36-months.

He notes that although the S24 FE is heavier and slightly larger, with a lower display resolution it boasts the same size AMOLED display as the S24+. However, there are some drawbacks. He said: "It's not quite as powerful and the battery is a little smaller, but it's more affordable, and that's the point." Meanwhile, GiffGaff offers various monthly contracts for the S24 FE starting from £18.03 for a 36-month contract, with an upfront fee of £20.

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE renders just leaked — here's your first look
For the most part whenever Samsung releases the affordable Galaxy S25 FE we don't expect to see more than some minor upgrades to phone compared to the Galaxy S24 FE. A new set of renders leaked this week won't disabuse you of that notion. The images come from regular render-tipster OnLeaks via SammyGuru. Compared to the Galaxy S24 FE, these renders reveal a phone that looks pretty identical to last year's model. According to SammyGuru, the S25 FE dimensions are 161.4 x 76.6 x 7.4mm (or 6.35 x 3.01 x .29 inches), which is basically the same as the S24 FE, and maybe a couple of millimeters smaller and thinner. The handset is rumored to retain the 6.7-inch AMOLED display and 120Hz refresh rate, though the bezels might be a bit slimmer. The only real upgrade we think you'll see is a bump up to the same 12MP front camera as the other S25 phones but the the same 50MP main, 12MP ultrawide and 8MP telephoto setup on the S24 FE. There are conflicting rumors on the chipset the S25 FE might feature. These range from re-using the same Exynos 2400e chipset from the S24 FE to a slightly better Exynos or a Mediatek Dimensity 9400. The latter two would give the S25 FE a modest boost in performance and power. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Otherwise, the new Galaxy S25 FE should have One UI 8 out of the box with a number of new AI features introduced with the S25 launch earlier this year. Though with Samsung's seven years of software and security update support, it's likely the S24 FE will quickly have the same features and operating system. Now that we've seen a first glimpse of the Galaxy S25 FE the big questions left to answer are the release date and price. Last year's model launched $649 — $150 less than the Galaxy S25. This year, Samsung hasn't raised prices like it did in 2024, so we think, barring tariffs, that the S25 FE could keep a similar price. No release date has been leaked yet or shared by Samsung, but the Galaxy S24 FE showed up in October last year. Assuming history repeats itself, that seems like enough distance from the mainline S25 launch for Samsung to debut the S25 FE.
