Certainly not Samsung‘s most fun 2025 product, the Galaxy S25 Fan Version has been making headlines for a number of months now, seemingly making ready fairly just a few necessary upgrades over its fall 2024-released predecessor.
In fact, not every part in regards to the cheap Galaxy S24 FE powerhouse can be modified this fall, and the newest rumor on X claims to disclose a few the important thing specs unlikely to get an improve together with a really fascinating (and largely reimagined) colour palette.
These are the anticipated S25 FE paint jobs
Navy;
Icyblue;
Jetblack;
White.
As a result of Samsung isn’t Motorola, there aren’t any spectacularly eye-catching or groundbreaking new hues on the above listing. However as acquainted as these 4 colorways are prone to sound to lots of the firm’s hardcore followers, it is positively value declaring how totally different they really are to the S24 FE’s paint jobs.

Final yr’s Galaxy S24 Fan Version is on the market in blue, graphite, grey, mint, and yellow, so Samsung is principally trying to change all these choices this yr, which is each good and unhealthy in my e-book. Whereas I am definitely excited to take a look at the S25 FE within the “vanilla” S25’s Icyblue shade, to not point out a Galaxy S25 Extremely-style Jetblack colorway (sans the titanium construct, after all), I am unable to say I am too happy with the prospect of Samsung killing off the modern mint and yellow choices.
Then once more, that listing leaked by the commonly dependable Arsène Lupin, aka @MysteryLupin, on X will not be complete, so let’s not abandon all hope of seeing the Galaxy S25 FE launched in flashier hues as effectively. So far, the handset has been pictured in a white colour, thoughts you, in order that’s most likely the one model fully etched in stone in the interim.
And these are the storage and reminiscence configurations
128GB storage + 8GB RAM;
256GB storage + 8GB RAM.
Now that is a very unsurprising (and largely underwhelming) “listing”, which predictably begins at 128 gigs of native digital hoarding room and disappointingly lacks each a 512GB storage variant and 12GB reminiscence choice.
Clearly, Samsung is primarily targeted on preserving the S25 FE’s worth level as little as attainable, though it is most likely not very lifelike to hope that the brand new telephone can be cheaper than its predecessor. As a substitute, I count on the S24 FE’s $650 beginning worth to go unchanged, making Samsung’s 2025 Fan Version handset considerably costlier than Google’s Pixel 9a, as an example, but in addition most definitely cheaper than the “vanilla” Pixel 10.

Regardless of rocking a slimmer waist and an general extra elegant design, the S25 Fan Version is impressively additionally tipped to bump up its predecessor’s battery capability from 4,700 to 4,900mAh. Sadly, no main enhancements for the 50 + 8 + 12MP triple rear-facing digicam system have been reported to this point, and the 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X show is nearly assured to remain unchanged by way of dimension and backbone as effectively.
All in all, Samsung is definitely not trying to revolutionize inexpensive Android high-enders right here, nonetheless aiming to make you a proposal you possibly can’t refuse in September or October… if you cannot afford or do not just like the compact Galaxy S25 for no matter purpose.
