Samsung just announced they’re launching their cheaper Galaxy S25 FE earlier than planned. During a recent company meeting, executive Daniel Araujo revealed: “We’ll launch the S25 FE sooner to keep sales strong.” While he didn’t give exact dates, this likely means an August or early September 2025 release instead of the usual October timing.
Why the Galaxy S25 FE Release Date Changed
Samsung has a packed schedule later this year with fancy new gadgets like their first foldable phone that bends three ways! Launching the S25 FE early gives it space to shine before those flashier products arrive. It also targets back-to-school shoppers – smart timing!

What to expect from the phone?
The good news:
- Likely $699 price (much cheaper than regular S25)
- Brighter screen that’s easier to see outdoors
- Faster 45W charging (full battery while you eat breakfast!)
- Same great 7-year software updates as flagships
The not-so-exciting news:
- Probably same basic storage (128GB) as last year’s model
- Same processor power as 2024’s S24 FE
- Similar camera setup to previous model
Should you wait for it?
- Yes if you want flagship Samsung features without the $1,000+ price tag
- Maybe not if you need tons of storage or cutting-edge performance
This earlier Galaxy S25 FE release date is perfect if you want a great Samsung phone that won’t empty your wallet. Keep an eye out around late summer!
