That price hike could be due to the new software promises Samsung is making. Smartprix says that Samsung will offer seven years of Android updates and security patches when it launches the S24 FE. That matches Google’s new (ish) promise on updates and Apple’s unofficial seven-year policy.

Pre-orders for the S24 FE appear to be at least momentarily open prematurely, starting at $650. Samsung’s formal launch of the phone has been expected for later this week.

Samsung will most likely launch its next-generation tablet, the Galaxy Tab S10, on September 26. Earlier this month, we exclusively leaked the colors and specs of the Galaxy Tab S10 Plus and Tab S10 Ultra alongside dozens of official images.
