Galaxy Unpacked Seoul 2023 has now concluded with no mention of the supposedly upcoming S23 FE - then again, there was a strong Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy theme running through the show, into which the final flagship series member may not have fit. Nevertheless, there is now more evidence that the latest Fan Edition might get a different shot at the limelight soon enough.
It has just been registered by name (well, as the "Samsung Electronics Galaxy S23FE", or SM-S711U) with the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC), which, thus, confers wireless charging on the upcoming device. Interestingly, it is now certified as a "Power Class 0 Receiver" of up to 4.4 watts (W), just like its higher-end siblings on the same database, the SM-S918U1 (or equally region-specific S23 Ultra) included.
In other words, the S23 FE just might have reverse wireless charging rounded up to 4.5W, just like the S23 and S23+, as well as Qi wireless charging and up to 25W wired charging (not to mention display bezels that already exhibit a noticeable chin). It will now be very interesting to see which other potential top-end perks the upcoming 'people's flagship' gets to retain on its launch.
