Samsung has updated the Galaxy S25 series for a second time after launching the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25 Plus, Galaxy S25 Ultra and the Galaxy S25 Edge earlier this year. This year, Samsung has turned to its Fan Edition with the Galaxy S25 FE, which contains improved battery, cooling and charging within a thinner and lighter overall package.

Samsung has updated the Galaxy S25 series once again, under four months after the arrival of the Galaxy S25 Edge (curr. $699.99 on Amazon). This time, the company has introduced a new Fan Edition (FE) model, replacing the Galaxy S24 FE that launched almost a year ago.

According to Samsung, the Galaxy S25 FE represents a 'gateway' to Galaxy AI and 'flagship essentials'. In reality, this means that the Galaxy S25 FE comes with Samsung's older Exynos 2400 chipset for an 8% performance improvement over last year's model, according to our benchmarks. For context, the more powerful Exynos 2500 exists and is available inside the Galaxy Z Flip7.

Other upgrades from the Galaxy S24 FE include a new 4,900 mAh battery, a 10% larger vapour chamber and support for 45 W wired charging. Apparently, the Galaxy S25 FE also contains an upgraded 12 MP front-facing camera and an enhanced Armor Aluminium frame too, that coincides with thickness and weight dropping to 7.4 mm and 190 g, respectively.

However, the 6.7-inch AMOLED display remains, as do last year's 50 MP primary, 12 MP ultra-wide-angle and 8 MP telephoto cameras. Likewise, this year's Fan Edition is limited to 8 GB of RAM just like last year's model. The Galaxy S25 FE is available for €749 with 128 GB of storage and for €809 with 256 GB of storage in multiple launch colours. Alternatively, Samsung will exclusively stock a 512 GB variant for €929.
