Krillo, 16 Nov 2023Can we please have the old battery test back?You would rather have false, badly calculated numbers than what seems to actually be far more reliable and accurate to real life figures? The old testing method didnt work and hadnt for a while, this is far more in line with how your phone will actually behave (unless you really believe your phone is doing 5 days off a single charge... Lol).
You should be giving GSM team props for admitting mistakes and massively improving testing methodology. (i mean the review is just wrong which happens a lot with samsung phones, recommends very questionable devices to try make the 23fe look better and is clearly trying to convince people its better than it is/intensely focusing on very minimal markets to make its pricing look more relevant).

Pls compare it to the Xiaomi 13T pro with greater attention to UI speed and smoothness, display, speakers and haptics. Tnx!

The Pros and Cons on this review are spot on. Kudos on this part gsmarena.
The display brightness is ok. The battery(web browsing)is horrible.
This is a device that needs to heavily drop in price to make sense.
What is truely weird is the antutu score. How the hell did did this 8/128 version manage to beat the 12/256 Nothing phone 2 with the more powerful Snap 8+ gen 1 ???
Last but not least, in a year where all S Series are equipped with Snapdragon, middle finger to Samsung for having the guts to release a S23 FE with last year Exynos in some regions.

Yeah, no, just buy Samsung S23. Frankly I don't think S23 FE deserves a 4.2* rating in a universe where S23 is being sold for a similar price...

Shitty baterry, No card slot and just up to 256GB, larger than S23+ with a smaller screen, below average camera at all, expensive but its midrange phone!

This looks like a combination of bad stuff from two generations, like the 8 gen 1 from S22 and the very basic design from S23. But although it may look like a terrible value for money right now, I have a feeling that the Galaxy A5x next year will make this seem like a bang for your buck in comparison.

MakeMotoBetterAgain, 16 Nov 2023you can buy a used s23 for the same price, bad deal!Maybe even a new one if you find a good discount. Today I saw the 256GB version of S23 in black friday discount for 665 euros.

BlinG-BlinG, 16 Nov 2023"The 32MP selfie camera remains the same as on the S21... moreFixed, thank you for noticing.
Never knew about this for the brightness. AIDA64 shows very real measurements and changes for ambient light, there was even a brand for the sensor I think. Will look into it later.
The Exynos version was not available to us. The only one we could get was the US model. We will try to get the Exynos model once it launches in Europe.

888 and 8.1 were both a joke when it comes to consumption and heating.
They should have used 8.1+ or 7.2 from Poco F5

Its perfectly fine if you dont like it, but portraying colors as defining one's s*xual orientation is not
