The ratio of the screen to the body is awful and nauseating! Samsung regression!
We were satisfied with the screen-to-body ratio even as much as the previous generation A53-A52-A52s!!!
The A54 is the best, but it has the visual experience and feel of an older phone.
Even SF23 fe is exactly the same.
Although I am a Samsung fan, I have bought Samsung A series phones for several years. But I can't deal with the A54's screen margin and its screen-to-body ratio. It is very, very thick. I will wait for the next generation, ie A55 or A75.
If the screen-to-body ratio of the A55 or A74 is as awful as the A54, then I will migrate to the Xiaomi brand after having a Samsung phone for 12 years.............

It's not that i don't like it, but going from a note 10 plus to this feels like a huge downgrade. There is no external port for headsets. There is no external storage for my SD card, and worst of all, it doesn't even sit flat on the table. Who thought of having it sit on the camera and rocking 🤔. Actually, the more I think about it, the less I like it. If I wanted to pay a monthly fee for storage, I'd buy an iPhone.

this guy is right, the FE doesnt stand a chance against its own competition now that you can pick up the S23 for the same price!

Shamesung's Exynos = automatic skip. Won't pay a cent for this company's phones stuffed with B-Grade chips which they offload on all non-US & non-SK customers.

People keep looking at the spec sheet (which is fairly flawed on its own), but fail to look deeper than that.
The display is subpar to the actual flagships of the S series, due to a cheaper lamination process. Like with the S20 FE, you will get severe rainbow banding on angle. As for the cpu, this leftover stock that they wouldn't know how to use otherwise, so they're just doing damage control at this point. The cpu consumes a lot of power and overheats under load. Fortunately, with the plastic back, you wouldn't feel it that much.
The cameras are great on paper, but don't think for a second that uncle Sammy will give you the same software performance of the flagship phones.
Short story long - you will find better alternatives out there for less money, because for the real life experience of this phone, it is not worth what they're asking for. I would go as far as to look up a year old model that stores have in stock.

Anonymous, 07 Nov 2023I still find people that think that the FE means Founder Ed... moreIkr, when I agree there are some (or maybe a lot of) flaws in this phone, there are still some people (including me) who needs a good upgrade of a new phone with good longevity but got a pretty limited budget.
Excuse me for ranting, in my country, even an ordinary S22 256GB is US$40 more expensive than S23 FE 256GB with already nearing 2 years since its release, meaning the supported timeline for official support is only 3 years more. S23 256GB is $850, $200 more than S23 FE.
Personally, I thought it doesn't make sense for me to spend more money for phone with not longer longevity software-wise. Maybe hardware is on par or even better, but I think it's just not worth to buy it, hence why I still picked S23 FE.

ddd1, 05 Nov 2023I've seen this in person. The bezels are HUGE compared... moreMy same reaction when comparing this phone with an S20 FE 5G and and even an A52. Now all Samsung's phones look boring now. They have even more curved bezels. The Galaxy S7 or S10 looks way more futuristic in my opinion. They are trying to look the same as Apple instead of standing out like they used to. What hardware features do you get on the most expensive S23 Ultra in comparison with an iPhone 15 pro max? You would think years ago that it would be a headphone jack, expandable storage, and IR blaster, iris scanner, or anything like that, but they are all gone, and people keep buying them, so they don't care to add them back.

Could've at least included a headphone jack, micro sd slot, or a Snapdragon 8+ gen 1 to make it stand out from the S22, but I guess not. The S22+ 5G is cheaper. What is the point of this phone besides like one more new major version of Android? You also get a dimmer display, virtual proximity, slower charging, and probably more.
This is a test phone to see who is willing to buy it and not care about specs besides the number in the phone name.

Are the cameras s3fe flagship good or are they mid range type like a54?
Doesn't matter if it's older generation as long as they take superior photos and videos
I hate the cameras on a54 a70 etc they are trash
