- Flipkart’s Big Year End sale landing page teasers indicate a new variant for the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE in India.
- The device could get a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 variant which was available only in select regions.
- The smartphone launched with Exynos 2200 chipset in India starting at Rs. 59,999.
Samsung seems to have a surprise in store for Indian consumers as the brand could now bring a new chipset variant of the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE to the country. The move is quite sudden as fans expected the next set of S series devices to be the Galaxy S24 series.
Flipkart posts Samsung Galaxy S23 FE teaser, could be the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 variant
A new teaser for Samsung Galaxy S23 FE has been spotted on the Flipkart app at a landing page for the e-commerce website’s “Big Year End” sale. The vague “Coming soon” teaser has been posted alongside Redmi Note 13 Pro+ and Vivo X100 series posters indicating that this is a new product.
The image fails to indicate any other information regarding the device, but it’s the same poster that the brand used for the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE launch in October. It would be worth noting that Samsung’s official website; however, has no teasers up, which means this could simply be an error on Flipkart’s end.
The South Korean conglomerate is known to bring Snapdragon variants of FE series devices to India. This time however it could be happening early, possibly to position the phone well under the upcoming Galaxy S24 series and compete with the latest offerings from iQOO and OnePlus.
It would be interesting to see if the “new” processor would result in a price hike. Samsung did use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in select regions such as the US but launched the device with Exynos 2200 in most other countries. In India, the smartphone costs Rs. 59,999 for the 128GB variant and Rs. 64,999 for the 256GB option.
