Finally, Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is available in Nigeria and costs over ₦1million

These phones keep getting bigger and bigger, and the latest Samsung Fan Edition smartphone, Samsung Galaxy S24 FE, has jumped into large screen territory. The Galaxy S23 FE was released with a more compact 6.4-inch display. The S24 FE has a 6.7-inch display. But is the phone itself now bigger? Yes, it is.

Other features of the Galaxy S24 FE include an EXYNOS 2400e chipset, the ProVisual engine (which makes its first appearance in the FE series), a telephoto camera, and a bigger 4700mAh battery coupled with 25W fast wired charging. Any surprise about that last feature? There is also 15W wireless charging included.

What is ProVisual engine? In a nutshell, it is the brand name that Samsung has given the sum total of its photography tricks, tools, algorithms, and all. Before now, only the proper S24 and Z Flip/Fold6 premium flagships had the ProVisual engine.

This means you can expect premium flagship level of photography and videography from the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE. Like its predecessor, the S24 FE has a telephoto lens. Other features include an optical in-display fingerprint sensor, OneUI 6.1 based on Android 14, IP68 dust/water resistance, Galaxy AI, and Circle to Search.
