Best Samsung Galaxy S23 FE mobile plans

Samsung has just launched the Galaxy S23 FE to slot in neatly between the flagship S23 series and the more mid-range A series. While its launch hasn’t received as much fanfare as the likes of the Galaxy S23 Ultra, there is much to like about this new phone, as it offers near-flagship performance without the wallet-busting price tag to match. 

Our mission here at Getprice is to find you the best prices and deals on anything and everything, and so we’ve sifted through the various deals and promotions available for the Galaxy S23 FE to bring you our overall top recommendation.

Samsung Galaxy S23 FE: What is it? 

The Samsung Galaxy S23 FE is the latest phone to join the FE family. FE stands for ‘Fan Edition’ and the last time we saw the acronym used was with the Galaxy S21 FE. Samsung skipped the model for the S22 and now it’s back in all its glory. 

Samsung FE devices have the aim of giving users a close-to-flagship experience, but at a more approachable price point. You could even say FE stands for ‘flagship experience’ if you wish. 

In this regard, the Galaxy S23 FE adopts a virtually identical design to the standard Samsung Galaxy S23, complete with floating triple-lens camera system on the rear and a punch-hole camera on the front. The rear cameras comprise 50MP, 12MP and 8MP sensors, with the main 50-megapixel snapper also getting 3x optical zoom. 

On the front you’ll find a 6.4-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, making it larger than the standard S23, and 0.2-inches smaller than the Galaxy S23+. The Galaxy 23 FE’s display supports up to 120Hz refresh rate. 

There are two storage options available, 128GB or 256GB, and both arrive with 8GB of RAM; prices are $999 and $1,099, respectively.
