Samsung has expanded its Fan Edition lineup with the launch of the Galaxy S25 FE 5G. Priced at Rs 59,999, the device promises upgrades in design, performance, and cameras. After a week of testing, here are five points that may help buyers decide whether the new FE model is worth the money.
1. Design and build
The Galaxy S25 FE 5G has been made slimmer and lighter compared to last year’s version, giving it a more comfortable in-hand feel. Its appearance closely resembles the flagship S25 series, featuring a glass rear panel and an aluminium frame. The phone also carries an IP68 water- and dust-resistance rating along with Gorilla Glass Victus Plus protection.
2. Display performance
The handset sports a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel with 120Hz refresh rate support and peak brightness reaching 1900 nits. The screen offers sharp visuals and is well-suited for video streaming or gaming. However, visibility in direct sunlight is still an area where the display struggles.
3. Camera setup
Samsung has equipped the phone with a triple-camera system: a 50MP primary lens, a 12MP ultrawide sensor, and an 8MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom. Photos come out detailed and well-coloured in most conditions, but low-light captures show noise and average performance compared with higher-end Galaxy devices.
4. Performance and usage
Powered by the Exynos 2400 processor, the device runs smoothly for daily use and multitasking. The model tested included 8GB RAM, which may limit its long-term efficiency. Extended gaming or heavy workloads also cause noticeable heating, though performance itself does not degrade during such usage.
5. Battery life and charging
A 4900mAh battery supports the Galaxy S25 FE 5G, providing a full day of use on a single charge under normal conditions. Fast charging is available at 45W, but the charging time feels slower compared with some rivals in the same price bracket.
The Samsung Galaxy S25 FE 5G combines premium design, capable cameras, and stable performance, but questions remain around RAM capacity, low-light photography, and charging speeds. At Rs 59,999, the phone targets users looking for a balance between flagship features and Fan Edition pricing, though competition in this segment is strong.
