Samsung Could Launch the Galaxy S23 FE In Certain Regions As Early As July to Make Up for Poor Sales of the Galaxy S Series

wccftech.com:

Samsung started this year with a bang when the Galaxy S23 series came out, and while there is enough evidence that tells us that the new flagships are selling better than the previous ones, it still isn't enough by Samsung's standards, and that is the reason why the company is looking to launch the Galaxy S23 FE, a lot sooner than some may have expected.

According to a tweet from reliable tipster @Tech_Reve, Samsung could launch the Galaxy S23 FE before it launches its foldable devices which are scheduled for later this year. This shouldn't come as a surprise because the track record for these Fan Edition devices has been inconspicuous at best, and we cannot really tell when the company drops a phone.

The source mentions that Samsung is going for an early release of the Galaxy S23 FE because of the sluggish sales of the Galaxy S series as a whole, and the company wants to make more profit by selling a bit more affordable offering. The phone is only going to be launched in certain regions, so you can expect limited availability.

Due to the sluggish sales of the S series, there are predictions that Samsung Electronics will release the 'Galaxy S23 FE' in certain regions before the launch of the new foldable phone. In this case, the Galaxy S23 FE is expected to be released around July or August. https://t.co/pxlXiNybq5

Now, the Galaxy S23 FE has been in the rumor mill for some time, and we do know that it will feature an Exynos 2200 instead of the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. We don't know if there are going to be other corners cut this time around, but Samsung does need to price it carefully because the Galaxy A54 already makes up for a strong mid-range device, so anything between $600 to $700
