This offer is available from both Best Buy and Amazon. We’re linking to the Best Buy page because this retailer discounts all color versions of the phone and has an additional $100 discount for those who activate the phone with either Verizon or AT&T. If you prefer to go with Amazon, the online retailer has the Blue and Mint color versions for a higher $499.99 price, which is arguably still a nice discount.
Samsung Galaxy S24 FE
A phone that fans and Galaxy newcomers will love.
The Galaxy S24 FE is a Samsung flagship in all but name. It delivers the right mix of performance, Galaxy AI smarts, camera flexibility, and overall durability while keeping the cost pegged right at $650, and with an update promise that matches the Android elite.
FE stands for “fan edition.” This Samsung series is made to cater to those who love what Samsung has to offer, but would prefer not paying the high price tags the company’s flagships come with. The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE takes all the best parts of the regular S24 series, but makes some sacrifices to reduce the price, offering a much better value for your hard-earned dollars.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE’s design is actually more similar to the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus. It is very similar in size, has the same aluminum frame, and has glass on the front and back of the device. It even has an IP68 rating, the highest level of dust and water resistance we see on most smartphones.

The 6.7-inch AMOLED 2X display has a Hull HD+ resolution and a 120HZ refresh rate. The definition isn’t as high as the S24 Plus’ QHD resolution, but it is still very good. It also differs in that it has no Qualcomm processor, which we would prefer. Either way, the Exynos 2400e is still powerful enough to keep most people happy, and the 8GB of RAM is still nice. Not to mention, the camera system is very decent for a device at this price range, especially at today’s discounted cost.
Most casual users will have no issue with the 4,700mAh battery. It also has 25W wired and 15W wireless charging, so you can juice it up relatively quickly. Of course, you can learn more about our thoughts on this phone in our Samsung Galaxy S24 FE hands-on feature. If you want some great alternatives, we also have a list of the best budget phones.
Keep in mind that this is a record-low price for the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE, which was released less than two months ago, on September 26. And if you can get it for $374.99 with a Verizon or AT&T activation, that is pretty much a steal! We don’t think this deal will last too long, so go grab yours as soon as possible.
