$200 Galaxy S24+ discount puts the S24 FE in an awkward position

Samsung has launched a new deal for the Galaxy S24+, and it's a great offer for prospective buyers who might want something a better than the Galaxy S24 FE without spending much more money. In fact, this limited-time deal puts the Galaxy S24 FE in a somewhat awkward position. Here's all you need to know.

Samsung is cutting you a $200 discount on the unlocked Galaxy S24+ if you don't trade-in another device. This limited-time discount drops the price of the 256GB variant from $999 to $799 and the 512GB model from $1,119 to $869.

Given that the 256GB Galaxy S24 FE costs $709, the $799 Galaxy S24+ — after this no-trade-in discount —  already sounds like a bargain. But there's more.

If you pick a carrier with your Galaxy S24+ rather than the unlocked model, you get the $200 discount plus a $100 instant Samsung Credit, the latter of which you can use on accessories right before checkout.

The story continues after our review video

So, is the Galaxy S24+ worth the extra cash? What do you get in return? Well, compared to the Galaxy S24 FE, the Plus model has:

  • A bigger battery with faster 45W charging.
  • Superior build quality with Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and enhanced Armor Aluminum 2 frame.
  • Uniform and thin screen bezels.
  • A better LTPO Dynamic AMOLED screen with a superior refresh rate range that supports AOD wallpapers. The S24 FE doesn't have this feature.
  • The screen is brighter at 2600 nits and has a higher 3120 x 1440 resolution (up from 2340 x 1080).
  • A slightly more powerful chip. And in the USA, it is a Snapdragon (8 Gen 3) rather than an Exynos (2400e) solution.
  • 12GB of RM instead of 8GB.
  • Better cameras all around.

To answer the question, yes, it looks like the Galaxy S24+ is worth that extra $90. Assuming you're willing to go the extra mile, you'll get a lot of value in return for a slightly higher price than the Galaxy S24 FE's, relatively speaking.

Hit the buy button below if you want to take advantage of this limited-time offer. Remember, the $200 deal only applies if you don't trade another phone for the S24+. And the extra $100 Store Credit applies only when you pick a carrier.
