For something called “Fan Edition”, the Fay Series really has difficulty connecting with fans. Last year’s model was criticized for its price, now the 2025 model is here and it’s a very similar story – people think they can get better hardware elsewhere for their money.
In short, the Samsung Galaxy S22 FE is not a nice purchase – right now, not anyway. Reading the comments on last week’s voting, we saw a pattern – many people will get the Galaxy S24+ instead. Although there are better phones right now, it costs lower.

Nevertheless, some owners of the old Galaxy’s Fe Phones are watching enough upgrades to switch them to S2F. Whether they do immediately or they are waiting for the price to lower the price – we have seen some reports on the big deals from the stores, but it looks very rare right now.
