Title: Excellent for the price
Review: Takes excellent pictures that I can edit and remove background easily which is what I needed. With 7 years of updates I don't have to worry about being obsolete anytime soon, the screen and response time is excellent. Charges fast even though it's the 25 watt charger. I opted for the 256 gb memory which is the most you can get on this model. The only con is it is fairly heavy. Iam happy with what I got without spending 100s to get slight upgrades

Title: Flagship Experience
Review: The Samsung FE (fan edition) phones are meant to give customers a flagship phone experience at a more reasonable price, making some strategic compromises to make that happen. I think they succeeded for the most part with the S24 FE.The display and camera are the two key factors in phone quality, in my opinion. The display here is an FHD+ (basically 1080p) 6.7" AMOLED, which is the same size as the S24+ with a lower resolution. The AMOLED gives great response timea and black levels and the lower resolution is not very important to overall image quality. I am impressed for the price.Photo quality is excellent and similar to the S24+, with particularly impressive 4K60 video quality. It can also record 8K30 if you want to have some room for cropping. I normally go with Google phones, and it is a close competition. I think the Pixels do a better job in low light and have more vivid colors with default settings. The AI tools are fun to play with, but feel very early. I don't see a generative function that allows you to type in things to fill selected areas with, but I may be missing it.The chipset is notably slower than the S24+, which is not very relevant in my usage so far. This is still a capable 2024 exynos and able to handle demanding apps and multitasking. It may not last as many years without becoming outdated.This is my first Samsung and I was happy to see it was not stuffed with intrusive Samsung apps I may not prefer over other apps. The Samsung AI for things like translation is cool and the phone also comes with Google AI for things like circle to search. With that, you can point your camera at anything in the phone app, hold the home button down, then circle something to search for it. It works remarkably well and better than any AI tool I have used before. Everyone I've shown it to was blown away.Without a case, the phone feels like an oiled up brick that tries to slip from my hands. With a case, that is solved and, while a little clunky, is not bad to hold for long periods.Overall, this is an excellent phone that achieves the goal of giving a flagship experience.

Title: Stellar phone
Review: I've been obsessed with it since it arrived. The seemless user interface and sleek design is absolutely captivating. From 10 percent, the phone will take 4 hours to charge if you have a regular adapter. It will hold a charge for a great amount of time. Pairs very well with Echo Buds, which I also highly recommend for audiophiles who look for balance between their music and their surroundings. The phone does come alone, without the promo for the $100 gift card, so double check your cart to make sure you chose the correct option.

Title: Excellent Mid Priced Phone with Galaxy AI Features. Try Now Before They Cost $$ to Use.
Review: This is a great phone at a price point that doesn't have too many choices. I also learned that Samsung may start charging for the Galaxy AI features in 2026, and I wanted to try them out before they cost $$ to use. I also picked this Galaxy Fan Edition phone because I need a phone with a big enough screen to watch videos / basic gaming, but not too huge. My other primary concern is battery life. I need a phone that can get me through a normal day without charging. I like to end up no lower than 20%, and almost every day, I ended up about 20% or more. This phone is big and it has a big battery too.I was also impressed with how quickly this phone charged vs my last Samsung phone I was able to get this sucker charged to ~55% in 30 minutes with a fast 25w wired charger! But because it has a big battery, and all batteries slow down charging after they're about 70% full, it took me about another 2.5 hours to get it fully charged.I was really excited to try out from of the new AI capabilities, and although I don't really NEED a new phone, I wanted to try out Samsungs AI features while they are free. I heard that Samsung may start charging for them in 2025 or 2026. That's the logic I used to get this phone lol. I travel a lot and use chat for work with people who are not native english speakers, so I tried some of the chat translation features, and that worked pretty well. It's certainly better than typing what you want into translate and then copying it into chat.I was really looking forward to the live translate feature, as sometimes I attend meetings and vid calls in multiple languages. The live translate feature really did not work that great. I don't know if this is because I was using it professionally and there are some biz terms that it couldn't get, but it wasn't that useful.Oddly, the feature that I did like the best and one that I use a lot is the circle to search, where I can circle anything on my phone screen and then google searches for it. That was pretty useful as I like easily identifying stuff along my hikes, but I already basically do that anyway with google lens.I know there are a lot of graphics AI features, and I'm sure I'll get around to using those productively, but for me they don't have much of a purpose other than trying to figure out why AI thinks I'm such a bad artist.But the bottom line is, AI is going to be around for a looooong time and we are just at the beginning. I remember when the first iphone came out and it was such a pain to type on the thing. Early tech stuff always takes time, and both the users and the tech get better over time.I like using new tech early, so I can keep up, and I definitely want to try it out while it doesn't cost anything extra other than the cost of a really good phone.
