Early rumors suggested that the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE would follow in the footsteps of its non-FE version and launch in Exynos and Snapdragon and Snapdragon. The launch date is the subject of debate, with one report saying it could arrive as early as July, while another insists it won’t see the light of day until early 2024. A new Geekbench listing suggests that the first hypothesis is more plausible.
The Galaxy S24 FE’s debut on Geekbench is confirmed by its codename, SM24 FE is confirmed by its codename, SM-S721B, which was confirmed by two reports earlier. It scores 2,047 and 6,289 points in Geekbench’s single- and multi-core tests. Furthermore, its 10-core processor, coupled with the motherboard ID, confirms that it uses an Exynos 2400 SoC. However, it appears to be a different version than what we found on a vanilla Galaxy S24.
This is confirmed by a quick look at the clock speed of its main Cortex-X4 core, which is pegged at 3.11 GHz, a bit lower than that of the regular Exynos 2400 Exynos 2400 the Exynos 2400 of 3.21 GHz. Everything else appears to be the same, including an Xclipse 940 GPU. In all likelihood, Samsung used a lower quality Exynos 2400 SoC on the Galaxy S24 FE, which could explain its slightly lower clock.
Other features of the Galaxy S24 FE reportedly include a 6.7-inch screen and the same camera setup found on the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S23 FE (currently $599 at Amazon). Further details about the smartphone are unknown at this stage, but they are expected to emerge closer to the launch date.
