In early October, after many months of rumors and leaks, Samsung finally made the Galaxy S23 FE official. And today it is available in the United States.
The price Samsung announced during the presentation was $599, and yet, if you go to Samsung.com now and try to buy one, you’ll notice a sneaky price increase. The phone is listed as $629.99. Sure, $30 isn’t a lot, but this device went official 23 days ago and means more than $1 more per day.
Luckily, if you want an S23 FE but don’t want to pay Samsung’s inflated price, Amazon comes to the rescue, offering the phone at the originally revealed price of $599. Plus, you can also get a $100 gift card for free, for future purchases at Amazon.
This effectively makes the phone $499, which is a very competitive price for the mid-range hungry US market.
The Galaxy S23 FE features a 6.4-inch Dynamic AMOLED screen with 120Hz refresh rate and 1080×2340 resolution, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC at the helm, 8GB of RAM, 128/256GB of storage storage, a triple rear camera system (50 MP main with OIS, 12 MP ultrawide, 8 MP 3x optical zoom telephoto), a 10 MP selfie snapper, and a 4,500 mAh battery with support for 25-bit wired charging W. It runs Android 13 with One UI 5.1 on top.
