Galaxy S24 FE shows up with the Exynos 2400 chip again

The Galaxy S24 FE has once again made an appearance on a popular benchmark with the Exynos 2400 chip under the hood. The latest benchmark listing confirms that the Fan Edition phone will use Samsung's in-house chip in its home country.

With Samsung using the Exynos and Snapdragon chips from the Galaxy S22 series for the Galaxy S23 FE instead of the Galaxy S23 series, fans of the Korean giant had been wondering if the Galaxy S24 FE would similarly sport year-old chips.

A Galaxy S24 FE benchmark from a couple of months back confirmed that wouldn't be the case. The phone will use the same Exynos chip as the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+.

It makes sense, too: Samsung didn't release a flagship Exynos chip in 2023, so the Exynos 2400 was the logical choice, as selling a high-end phone with a two-year-old chip would attract a lot of criticism.

But what about Snapdragon chips? Will the S24 FE use a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in some markets, or at all? The Exynos 2400 is a fantastic chip, but the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is better, and many Samsung fans prefer buying Galaxy phones powered by Qualcomm chips.

There is no evidence for a Snapdragon variant of the Galaxy S24 FE at this time, so we will have to wait and see what Samsung has in store for the audience it caters to with the Fan Edition lineup. If a Snapdragon variant is on the cards, it will likely be limited to a handful of countries, such as the US, Canada, and China.
