The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE expands Samsung’s smartphone lineup at a starting price of $649.99 in Blue, Graphite, Gray, and Mint. According to the Samsung Newsroom announcement, the phone features a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, an Exynos 2400e processor, an AI-based ProVisual Engine, and an update policy covering seven generations of OS upgrades and seven years of security updates. Documented manufacturer specifications define the device’s hardware, camera system, and operational requirements.
Hardware Architecture and Physical Specifications
The Galaxy S24 FE is powered by a 4nm Exynos 2400e processor supporting ray tracing. Thermal cooling is managed by a vapor chamber that is 1x larger than the cooling unit in the Galaxy S23 FE.
The device measures 77.3 x 162.0 x 8.0 mm and weighs 213 grams, though weight may vary by market. Its display is a 6.7-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen with an adaptive refresh rate of 60/120Hz and Vision Booster. Measured as a full rectangle, the screen is 6.7 inches diagonally, and 6.5 inches when accounting for rounded corners and the camera hole.
The chassis carries an IP68 rating, tested under lab conditions for immersion in up to 1.5 meters of fresh water for up to 30 minutes, along with protection from dust, dirt, and sand. Water and dust resistance is not permanent and may diminish over time. S24 FE components use recycled plastics, aluminum, glass, and rare earth elements, and ship in packaging made from 100 percent recycled paper material.
ProVisual Engine and Camera Hardware
The Galaxy S24 FE introduces Samsung’s ProVisual Engine to the FE series, applying AI algorithms across its physical cameras:
- 50MP Wide Camera: f/1.8 aperture, 84-degree field of view (FOV), and Optical Image Stabilization (OIS). Its 50MP Adaptive Pixel Sensor enables optical-quality performance at 2x and 3x zoom levels, with AI zoom assisting intermediate digital focal lengths.
- 8MP Telephoto Camera: 3x optical zoom, f/2.4 aperture, 32-degree FOV, and OIS.
- 12MP Ultra-Wide Camera: f/2.2 aperture and 123-degree FOV.
- 10MP Front Camera: f/2.4 aperture and 80-degree FOV.
Software processing includes Nightography with an AI image signal processor (ISP) to improve low-light night portraits, alongside an Object-Aware Engine that analyzes scenes to tune colors in Super High Dynamic Range (Super HDR).
Galaxy AI Features and Operational Constraints
Running Android 14 with One UI 6.1, the Galaxy S24 FE provides built-in Galaxy AI features subject to documented technical requirements:
- Generative Edit and Portrait Studio: Generative Edit allows moving and removing objects, while Portrait Studio transforms portrait photos into cartoons, comics, watercolors, or sketches (supporting JPG, HEIC, BMP, and PNG files without transparent backgrounds). Both features require an active network connection and a signed-in Samsung Account. Saved images are resized up to 12MP and marked with a visible watermark. Output accuracy and reliability are not guaranteed.
- Edit Suggestions: Automates quick adjustments, such as reflection removal, directly in the photo viewer.
- Instant Slow-mo: Generates slow-motion playback. This feature is restricted to video files saved in the Samsung Gallery app recorded at resolutions up to 4K at 60fps; HDR10+ video formats are not supported.
- Productivity Tools: Samsung Notes provides voice recording transcription, translation, and summarization, as well as PDF overlay translation.
Battery, Charging, and Ecosystem Features
The internal battery has a typical capacity of 4,700mAh tested under IEC 61960 standards (compared to 4,500mAh in the Galaxy S23 FE), with a rated minimum capacity of 4,565mAh. Wired charging is compatible with Quick Charge 2.0 and USB Power Delivery (PD). Samsung documentation notes that its 25W wired charging benchmark (achieving up to 50 percent charge in about 30 minutes with a separately sold 25W adapter and 3A cable) was achieved in internal tests using a pre-released Galaxy S23 Ultra at 0 percent power with the display and all features switched off.
The phone supports WPC-compatible Fast Wireless Charging and Wireless PowerShare. Wireless PowerShare operates with compatible Qi-certified phones and select Samsung Galaxy wearables, but may not function if the host battery level drops below 30 percent. In-device security is governed by Samsung Knox, Knox Vault, Knox Matrix, Auto Blocker, and Passkey support.
Documented Manufacturer Policies
Samsung documentation sets specific operational terms for device accessories and software support:
- In-Box Packaging: A wall charging adapter is not included in the standard retail package and must be purchased separately. Samsung instructions require using approved chargers and cables to avoid potential device damage.
- Galaxy AI Service Terms: Samsung notes that Galaxy AI features are provided at no charge on supported devices through the end of 2025; commercial terms or pricing beyond 2025 are not specified.
- Software Lifecycle: The device includes a commitment of seven generations of OS upgrades and seven years of security updates.
