Samsung Galaxy Note FE - User Reviews

  • Yes August patch is currently downloading and installing on my Note FE. It's 377,82MB in size.

  • What are you talking about? My FE is faster than Android 8 with Anroid 9 and OneUI. I can feel it very easily

  • Anyone has get security update?

  • You can use another laucher to keep good performances, because samsung do not optimize for old model

  • So what we learn here is... don't ever upgrade your android version. Just updates apps only. Old phone might not perform well with latest updates. If you want to use latest android version, wait until you buying new phone about 1 or 2 years later

  • About a week ago, my note fe screen suffers from black crush or gradient bending. The dark color looks awfull. The videos, games, and even camera did not show the color correctly. Please help. I didn't drop my phone or spills the water. I take good care about almost 2 years

  • Turn off fast cable charging when plugging the phone overnight. I think that can help

  • I have the same issue, I bought mobile from Korea and hanging many times and high tempreture for the mobile during hang issue, Temporary To return mobile to life press power + volume down But we want know reason and permanent solution

  • Can i connect this phone to TV using type c -hdmi cable?

  • This phone uses Nano sim. Make sure the sim which you are using is Nano. Other wise you have to get Nano sim from the service provider.

  • Omg.. what causing this problem its happen when updating to pie

  • How can I insert the sim The sim card chamber is not fitted for sim?...plz help me

  • Check your other sensor, is the all other sensor normal or broken? Sensor issue on Note FE causing all sensor including Iris is not usable, and if it is not from the software then must replace the whole motherboard

  • Just Prepare for broken sensor and right edge touch issue, SSC said that must change whole oled panel and motherboard which means NOT repairable anymore

  • Broken hardware, your phone is going to die must change the oled panel and motherboard, it costly the same when you buy a secondhand S8

  • Not with the current/latest update. Now you can't downgrade to Oreo anymore.

  • You can downgrade from Pie to Oreo if you want. But honestly, I prefer the nougat. I really regret downloading that security patch. I just realized that when i upgraded to Oreo, there are instances where certain apps lags or exits by its own.. I have anti-virus so I'm sure it is not caused by those.. If only I can turn back time. Anyway, hope this helps :)

  • Auto-rotate is not functioning despite of switching it off, and on again. That does not work either after I’ve restart my device. Any idea how can I fix that?

  • Is it only me, i think the camera is better then with nougat compared now with pie

  • reset

  • my fingerprint stop working make sensor test and my version is null anyone faces this problem and how fix it

  • Have recently got this FE edition korea version. Started hang-reboot-hang loop. Also phone is getting very hot during this session. Any suggestions for troubleshooting?

  • Been using this phone after upgrading from note5 (previous note5 using almost 3 years).. finally give-up because of STORAGE.. too many valuable image and data..dont know which one to delete.. using google drive, one drive, 4shared for extra storege but still need a HIGH SPEED data 24h to access all them.. finally choosing this, so far.. never updated OS except whatsupp telegram google chrome browser office.. still work excelently (for me)... at first want to change to note9 but consider size and weight 167g compare with 200g+ without casing yet.. smh.. the main reason i love note FE because it have all i want, small in size, light, otg, good screen resolution and aperture, have ip rating and also dedicated centre button.. i feel awkward using new phone nowdays.. how to on the screen? Just double tap the phone.. oowhh.. i see.. but still the feeling..

  • You can't. You'll only get security update with full Pie update.

  • If you don't using S Pen, S8 is better

  • Just an Android security patch

  • Wat fix new version ?

  • Recieved today....... Software update Version: N935FXXS5CSF1/N935FOLB5CSE1/N935FXXS5CSE1 Size: 64.93 MB Security patch level: June 1, 2019

  • Should we buy it here in 2019?? This one or galaxy S8?

  • Its quick charge 3.0 bro 🤔

  • My note fe have sensor problem after updating to pie... screen touch sensitivity on the right screen dont respond... does anyone have the same problem

  • I have factory unlocked Malaysian version of Galaxy Note FE in USA on MetroPCS by T-Mobile. Received OTA notification for Android Pie & new Security Patch combined in one update. I want the security patch but don't really want Pie. How can I download & install the security patch without Pie?

  • I received the May security patch, Note FE Korean version.

  • it works on note fe as i tried it before, but u have to download all of them manually by yourself. Firstly, if your region do not support goodlock u have to download nice shot instead from google play store.

  • Why Flagships don't have Radio application? is it because they want to follow Apple? I know Apple was not having Radio from the day one. Apple is considered to be role model, even though some of the Androids are much more superior in their functionality.

  • guys , do you know something about good lock 2019 for this device ???

  • No, Realme 3Pro is a downgrade, go for Note 9 or at least a Note 8 if your have limited budget, else keep your Note FE for another year.

  • Don't compare a mid ranger with a flagship. The phone is amazing compared to the A50 at it's performance, camera, screen and with one UI it had some improvments than th Oreo.

  • It has quick charge 2.0

  • My update with android pie was Apr 3

  • I have a note 8 but i also like the note FE. Does somebody experience app crash of app called Samsung connect?

  • after updating to android pie, the usb became an error, can't seem to find a solution on why it can't access files on OTG's and USB type C on my Galaxy Note FE. I tried turning on the USB debugging in the developers option but still not working. My charging works well, so i guess its not the charging pin? PLEASE HELP!!!! 

  • Anyone knows what gcam version to use for note fe?

  • It is wise to switch my Samsung Note FE to Realme 3 Pro? I love the Note FE AMOLED display and front scanner. Meanwhile I like the R3pro battery and larger display.

  • Quick Charge 2.0. But adaptors with later QC version are also backward-compatible, which is nice.

  • Is this compatible with quickcharge 2.0 or 3.0?

  • Get control centre from the Google app store. Volume controls just like iOS and you can swipe from bottom to execute. Is perfect for my needs

  • Can u give some review of your Note FE. How about the camera? Is it ok? B'coz i am planning to buy Note FE.. It is 2019 now, Is it still ok to buy it Or maybe i should buy other model. A50 maybe?

  • Got the 7FE last week for a steal @ 250$ and upgraded to Pie. No problems whatsoever. Someone earlier mentioned the best Note design of them all and I agree. 7FE the best sculpted Note for me.

  • Many thanks TC$ , its working now 🙂

  • Please note that from Android Pie, AOD's display mode is set to "Tap to show" by default. If you want to see AOD all the time, 'then go to Settings > Lock screen > Always On Display > Display mode, and change the setting to "Show always."

  • I finally received the Pie update on my Korean Note FE.

  • I see. Thx for your respond :P

  • Nay.. Note 8 is a better buy since the price difference is marginal & you get way better specs.

  • Should I buy Note FE in 2019?

  • Hey guys! You won't believed this! Today, Apr 14th I got notification through OTA that my Note FE today officially available for Android Pie 9.0 with One UI! Btw, I am from Malaysia. If you still keep your Note FE, don't throw it yet or trade for S10! Why upgrade if you have a chance to have same Android 9.0 with One UI with your beloved sexy toy! -Malaysia Note FE owner

  • Always on turns off when something is infront of the sensors to save battery life, personaly if get a regular case to save battery life but if u want to keep it, turn off that setting

  • after updating to android pie, the touch screen became an error, lacking response

  • After the update my battery also drained faster but I did a hard reset yesterday and it seems to go better. I have 5h30 screen time, still 13% battery...

  • After pie update onscreen time down to 5h than 6h when stay on oreo

  • Battery is dying fast after this update and wireless charging with 3rd party charger has stopped working :(

  • Samsung service centre

  • Overall It's a shitty Android Pie. 1. The only good is ram usage is lower than Oreo (I checked from developer option) for now. 2. There is no swipe gesture control for back and home which is the one feature that I wanted the most. I dont want to keep pressing on the physical home button. I've been using swipe gesture from 3rd party app for 4 years now (Since the phone before). I thought finally there will be original function without needing a 3rd party app. 3. My second most wanted feature The volume control bar is still at top like android O and not like others located vertical at side so your thumb can easily control. 4. At the update log it shows that there is a raise to wake feature. But I could not find it in the settings. Maybe also never provide to us. 5. To me I prefer the old design, this design looks like a toy. But is about personal preference. Conclusion = This Android Pie is a cheap update. They just redesign the UI and give us this shit just to fulfill their 2 major update / 2 years update promise. Very disappointing.

  • Wonder support dex or ntafter update to pie.is anyone try it yet?

  • anyone knows where to get a authentic Samsung replacement battery for Note FE?

  • Battery drains faster now!!!

  • Yes!! Downloading!!!!

  • Try Hard Reset After Updating I Am Also Going For After The Update Hope That Might Help!!!

  • Yes Got The Update One UI Is Out For Malaysia Now After A Very Long Wait Hope To See New Features In This Update :)

  • Who else experience faster battery drain after updating it to android pie?

  • Yeshh finally Malaysia is out, been checking it everyday these past few days

  • Yes!! Downloading!!!!

  • Its out one ui for malaysia!!!!!!!!!

  • Better to install security patches, mine is January 2019 and no Pie update yet.

  • Hi... i received update patch for 1 march 2019.. do i have to install it? Or just ignore it?

  • i live in indonesia. i got notification update pie several days ago. after pie updates, it's,smoother, the camera menu just like on s9 series (slide to change camera mode) the feature that i curious is compatibility with dex. samsung metioned it on the description that Note FE got a dex inside it. just Plug n play to hdmi to activate it.. i just dont have the cable so that i coulnd ever try this cool feature (if it's really exist) hehe

  • I got the pie version since one week , but the always on disappear when i close the clear cover , can anyone advise me ?

  • Still waiting for the update!!! I have the Malaysian version. Checking every day!!!

  • Yes Your Right I Dont Know Why Samsung Pushing The Update So Slow Still Waiting All Other Regions Got The Update But We Are Still Waiting So Disappointed!!! :(

  • I have checked at Sammobile website and the Malaysian model is the only one still without the Pie update. Hope to get it next week!!

  • Open the camera and slide to right 2 times

  • I got pie last march 28.. dark mode is usefull.

  • Bring the pro mode video back, Samsung! This is a backstep, honestly. I've been using that mode because the focus, shutter speed, iso, and so on can be set manually. Please give the next update, with the pro video mode

  • You need to wake the screen by pressing the home button/power button and then scan your fingerprint. If you wake the screen by pressing the home button, it will scan your finger immediately after the screen is turned on.

  • Finally got the One UI (i'm from Myanmar lol). the update took about half an hour. the UI looks really good and snappy. i'm really glad i updated it

  • Finnaly!! Android P and One UI is landed on my phone (Reg. Indonesia) First time used my phone is so "lagy" and slow respond, but after 15-30 minutes its back to normaly. One UI is so powerfull and easy to use. Sometimes is "funny" to see the new icon. END. Assalamualaikum

  • Still not get the android pie update yet lol

  • Still not get the update lol

  • Is it need to press finger print to unlock or just touch

  • My Samsung Member App Changes From March To April Still Wait For Another Month Why Samsung?

  • i have now ver 9. one ui. looks good. icons are gone a little bit smaller. taskbar time gone to left side. totally more colourful look.

  • I downloaded the Pie from SamMobile and then the minor update received on air within two days

  • No One UI update yet...... I have the Malaysian version I wonder if the note FE will get Samsung Dex compatibility because the note Fe has Usb 3.0 which can connect to external displays.

  • Why don’t we have lift to wake like the other phones running one ui ?

  • Where You Get All These Updates We Are Still Waiting To Upgrade And What Region Are You In?

  • Still waiting for the update!!! I have the Malaysian version. Checking every day!!!

  • Still no Android Pie available, it is already 31st of March 2019 in here. The last iteration upgrade for the Samsung Galaxy Note FE is not available yet as promised, stucked on security update November 2018. Farewell to this phone in another 8 to 10 more months after Android Q replacing Android Pie. Will looking forward to Samsung Galaxy Note 10 with 5G capability soon.

  • Another 15.87mb minor update recieved!!!!

  • I cant update

  • Yup recieved pie update. Works like a charm..

  • Still waiting... from Indonesia

  • My note Fe becomes slow after android pie update... mainly in opening applications, google maps, dialing number etc... i updated yesterday... middle east version in Saudi Arabia...

  • Phone is much faster with Pie and ONE UI and i have to say battery life is great ,always on display ( tap to show ) over night spends 3,4 percent instead at least 10 percent over night with Oreo... I only dont know why we dont have good lock 2019 on our galaxy store yet.... Am very pleased with this phone for real...

  • Updated to Android 9. One UI is awesome! Buttery smooth and user friendly. Better battery life. I like the new camera app. Download it now!:)

  • Upgrade working fine and smooth. Phone functions better now !!! Note FE Rocks !!

  • Just received the ONE UI Update and it's great. My device is from middle eastern region btw.

  • Anyone From Malaysia Got Update Any Update? We Are Still Waiting And Those Who Got Update How Is The Experience Can Anyone Share Here Thanks

  • Heating issues dont buy

  • Is it okay to ask a question? When focusing manually in Pro mode, is the focused subject displayed in green? (like s8, note8, s9, note9....)

  • I haven't found any issue. On the contrary, with Pie the phone feels so much better than on Oreo! I have N935F from Malaysia/XME. Had to update using Odin with XTC (Philippines) firmware. It also contains XME. Actually, it will be the exact same file for XME and XTC.

  • Video resoultion after update become Fhd instead of 4k.. Any one has same problem?

  • Pakistan

  • Is there any issue after the update ?

  • Where You From?

  • After upgrade having issue in signal strength/ WiFi Signals

  • SM-935f/ds i bought this phone from saudi.. having no issue also and the iris scanner seems to be a lot faster.

  • After upgrade having issue in signal strength/ WiFi Signals

  • My note n935f have recieved update today..its downloading

  • What Model No You Have Brother My One Is N935/DS Still Not Received Yet :(

  • Downloaded Pie and upgraded with ODIN...

  • Same Here Still Waiting For Update In Malaysia? Still No Pie Yet But Some Users Are Confirming They Got The Update Hope We Also Get Soon!!!

  • No pie update yet on my Note FE, Korean version SKtelecom.

  • Yes. Update to Pie now released for KSA and XTC (Philippines).

  • finally i get android pie update. from turkey( saudi arabia version)

  • Updated my note fe in saudi arabia, so far so good

  • No. NoteFE is like S7 (same SoC) with S-Pen and some enhancement. S8 is definitely an upgrade system-wise, but of course doesn't have S-Pen. But it definitely is faster and has better camera than NoteFE.

  • I haven't seen the message in the app yet

  • What Variant Are You Using My One Still Not Update The Info It Is Still Showing In March 2019 But March Is Also Approaching To Its End I Don't Know Why Samsung Is Delaying The Update Of This Master Peace Sucks Samsung 😡

  • S members change pie update time to 4/2019, so long

  • Some site saying no pie for us. Some site said it will be serve, samsung members also agree that our pie is still cooking.

  • Any One From Any Where Got Any Update Still Waiting About Pie I Think Samsung Forget To Release Update :P

  • No P yet. still waiting

  • Anyone get pie update?

  • I would suggest you to go for the Note 8 instead of the S8 it has 6GB RAM, dual cameras and would be the perfect replacement of your Note FE.

  • It Is Consider As Upgrade Bcz S8 Has That Infinity Display But Note FE Is Same As Its Predecessors The Cpu On S8 Is Little Bit Faster Then NoteFE The Difference Is Almost Like 20% In Performance But Other Specs Are Same :)

  • If I switch my Note Fe to S8 it is downgrade or upgrade?

  • It pretty much has the same specs as the S8 but with the s-pen.

  • My Note8 is updated to Pie with One UI and it got a big hit on the battery. I hope when I update my Note FE it will be fixed right away. So I think best they figure that out before releasing the update for the FE.

  • NoteFE received last update in Dec 18 (even though security patch is Nov 18). It will only get update every quarter. Pie will come in March. It's just early March. Be patient. Some rumors say update will go life on 15-Mar-19. So one more week more or less!

  • What about ONE UI.. Its already March..

  • Same with me ..mine also dont receive any updte since nov 1 .i thought im the one who not getting update ..lol this is suckss

  • No, and be await

  • Has Anyone Receive Any Update As Of Yet? Of Android P?

  • Read specs, or use compare option on screen just above

  • Why is good?

  • No, Note FE is good

  • Does anyone experience Note FE can't rotate to landscape mode? got any solution?

  • Should I change my note fe to S8?

  • Should I change my note fe to S8?

  • I am planing to buy note FE,,where can i buy original here in manila.can any one help me

  • Only if you want the s-pen, otherwise I wouldn't upgrade. The phone can be bought for a good price but it's more or less the same as the S7 apart from the s-pen and the enhanced functions.

  • Does it deserve to upgrade from s7 edge to note fe?

  • Yes it will get 9.0 Pie next month. The phone is very good. For the price it definitely is a good buy.

  • Very slim side bezels! Unmatched. And a really beautiful design, best looking Note so far in my opinion.

  • For performance and battery u11 plus for camera note fe!

  • It is scheduled for pie in March. Yes it may not have the narrow top and down bezel like the newer ones, but this one has the slimmest side bezel of all phone which makes it looks sexy.

  • Is Note Fe still reasonable to be use in 2019? Im planning to buy it next month. And will it get Pie?

  • Which one is better for the same price htc u11 plus vs note fe?

  • They are the same but, the note FE brings so much more to the table. but it depends on what u prefer. if u prefer the Spen go for the note FE. if u prefer the compact feel of it, go for the S8. the FE is still a verry good phone in 2019. i bought one last month

  • Buy S8 If You Like So Called Infinity Display Other Wise Fe Provide Better Value For Money Performance Is Almost Same In Both Phones But S8 Is Little Bit Faster But Fe Provide S-Pen Functionality I Am Also Using Fe And According To Android Pie Timeline This Phone Is Also Getting Android Pie Update Next Month And Forget To Mention Camera Is Also Excellent No Doubt Go For Fe 👍

  • Guys, im going to buy note fe next month, do you guys think this note fe still worth in 2019? Or should i buy samsung s8?

  • Yes the price is edgy, really affordable and so many features for the price that other phones in that ramge dont offer. The 600 euro pricetag in the speclist here on gsmarena is by far not realistic.

  • yes. it lasts for a day easily

  • Yes It Does Have My Fe Easily Giving Me 6 To 7 Hours Of SoT And Standby Till Evening With Moderate Usage In The End You Easily Left With 20 To 25% Juice In Your Phone Kudos For Samsung!!!

  • Everything is good, except the battery for me

  • Does note fe has agood battery life like s7 edge?

  • How to buy in pakistan ?......could be purchased from pakistan

  • Galaxy FE is a very good phone due to it's price > I advice every one to buy it.

  • Please someone tell me where to buy this phone

  • i bought the note FE last week at 2019 jan. it's a really speedy phone. there's not much of a difference in speed or camera between the note FE and the note 9. in fact it's even faster than the note 8

  • i just bought it 3 days ago. it's super cool. i recommend this on 2019

  • Yeah the update will be with one UI but we'll have to wait till March.

  • Mine is last 11 hours at best, how is yours?

  • Did you buy it from the internet or from the shop ?

  • Yes my Note FE is the Korean version.

  • Android P Update With One UI? Hope They Release This UI To This Phone Experience Now Suckss...

  • Yes it'll get pie update in March after Note 8 which is due in February.

  • I bought this phone from Saudi Arabia,now I m in India for last 3 months will get volte support

  • Battery backup is poor..

  • Which Country Are You In? Have You Imported This Phone From Korea? I Bought This Phone In Malaysia I Didn't Receive Any Update My One Is Still On Nov 1???

  • I received an update for the January security patch of around 218 MB.

  • I too checked it in the members app and it says March, the same timeframe as the Note8 and S8 series. So I assume it will get android Pie.

  • Can Anyone Tell Me That This Phone Is Getting Android P? Bcz According To Xda Forum They Have Opted This Phone From Update But I Have Checked In My Member App And It Says The Update Is Due In Mar 2019 Can Anyone Confirm This???

  • This phone is not sell in my country. Why samsung wasn't put this phone in European and African markets .i see i have one solution ,i'll wait until have a passport and travel to buy one from nearest country from us which exists

  • Why the Note 7 battery should reduce it size and rename FE?

  • Been using this phone since january 2018 and its all good except for the accesories that is hard to find specially the casing 😔..but all in all its good choice 😀

  • Traded off my Huawei Mate 9 for a used FE and mainboard gave charging issue (unable to fast charge) so brought to service center since it's still under warranty and repair done within an hour. New mainboard = almost a brand new start ;) Size & weight were just right and the camera (Dual Pixel) is AMAZING! No need all the gimmick nonsense the other players has. Focus is insanely fast & accurate and image quality is top notch on both lit and low-light situation. IP68 is truly a big bonus. Speaker is acceptable but I love the Adapt Sound function...once it is tuned correctly, you'll enjoy your song with your favourite earpiece! Overall a great performer even on today's standard. Batt life is quite alright (i'm not a gamer but a casual user) which last me a day easily. Truly a great flagship! Never regret traded off my Huawei, really!

  • Good deals on ebay for this phone, 400 euro brand new, go get it. This phone is not 600 euro like it says in the specs on this website.

  • Is there any configuration that will help draining issue? Do your fingerprints leave marks on the front glass

  • In addition to above comments, i have upgraded it to official Oreo and it's running real smooth. I don't know why people are commenting about battery drain issue; mine one is giving me more than 36 hrs with normal chatting, FB, Emails and always ON WiFi as well as Mobile Data.

  • I got this phone including the transparent case in the box, thanks Samsung. The performance of this phone is really awesome; i believe it would be a nice choice to buy this phone at a price of about Rs.50,000 in Pakistan.

  • Also on the front glass. Just wondering if its okay?

  • You mean on back glass? Yes its pretty normal for glass smartphone.

  • try replacing ur battery

  • Guys, I'm experiencing battery draining on this phone. Only last for 12 hours at best. Is anyone know what causing this? I am using Oreo now. Appreciate your help

  • It does

  • Is it normal to my galaxy note FE to be vulnerable to oily fingerprint? I buy it second hand with good condition though

  • Does anyone know which link to use to download Google pixel 3xl camera port on note fe? Can it run on note fe?

  • No, it runs fine on android Oreo, no problems at all on my Note FE.

  • This is for the Note 7. Is the refurbished one. Of course, isn't for Europe. WTF Samsung, WTF.

  • Pretty sure the FE does not support HDR..

  • which is better for gaming experience and in battery, note ?

  • this phone very strong and battery back up very fine.so buy and enjoy your life

  • Been running oreo since I got the update. No lag so far.

  • Have been using this device since April 2018. Still running smoothly. Does updating it to Android Oreo makes it lag? Or possibly heating problems?

  • Absolutely no But you may need a Power bank for heavy use

  • Yes I can confirm there's a clear view case in the box.

  • Yes. I found it in the Box for Manuals. It is matching colour clear view case. Thanks Samsung.

  • I've been using this device for 1 full year already and I'm satisfied with how it performed so far. The only downside is the battery which needs to be recharged twice a day for heavy user. The clear view case is in the box together with the manual.

  • I want to purchase Note FE. I heard that, Samsung included Clear View cover in the box. Can any tell me that where is this clear view cover located in the box? Someone, who purchased it already might know about it. Thanks.

  • Battery issue ? Or heat issue ?? Id like to buy this phone by next month thanks

  • I am not a heavy user but maybe the Note8 is a little bit snappier due to the 6GB of RAM and a better processor.

  • There's actually on souq these days with a dicount 52 percent

  • i bought mine 5 days ago at al haddad.. sar 1099

  • I mean handphone shop in Malaysia market .Nobody sell this Note Fe

  • And I still not yet see any handphone shop sell Note Fe in second hand .Are they refuse to sell

  • But I didn't see any Malaysian use it.

  • Hi, sorry for me didn't notice ur message

  • most major markets sell it at 1200 SR in saudi can u please tell me where u got it from with that price of yours ?

  • Thanks bro. So what is major difference between both performance wise? I usually play PUBG and find note fe little lagging. How is note fe experience when compared to note 8?

  • I have both phones, Note FE and Note8. Note8 is my daily phone. I have both phones since last year, Note FE since July 2017 and the Note8 since October 2017 and neither of these phones has such problems you mentioned in your post. So I wouldn't worry about it.

  • Well, NoteFE is just reboot of Note7, which is the Note-version of S7/S7edge. Neither Note7, nor S7/S7e feature HDMI output. Samsung ditched MHL on the 7-flagship series and didn't yet include DeX support.

  • I am a happy user of note fe but get tempted to note 8 if see someone using it. Recently saw lots of people selling note 8 with black dot problems on screen. should i worry about it or keep using note fe for now? please suggest thanks all.

  • A great phone to have an unboxing experience, and that's that. Poor build quality trademark unique to Samsung. LG | SONY | APPLE | HUAWEI are better in build quality. Rise up Samsung!

  • Very good phone, can be bought for 400 euro or cheaper brand new. The price of 600 euro on gsmarena is incorrect. My Note FE is running the Microsoft launcher.

  • You still have time for phone in Saudi Arabia ? Aren't you supposed to pray 10 times per day ? Is prince Bin Salman Al Hiprocity aware of this ?

  • Just bought a Note FE for SR 1049 in Saudi Arabia ($279) and it's a really great price for a device with these specs. It's priced like mid rangers but beats them in everything except battery life but that's understandable. But display, camera, features, build and speed are in the FE's favor plus I really enjoy playing with the S Pen. Updated it to latest 8.0 and smooth sailing so far.

  • Exactly! I was heartbroken when I discovered it, but, the lack of HDMI support really is the only con. Seems so unfair when all the other USB-C Galaxy flagships do.

  • Honor 10 is the newer model compare to the Note FE. However, it also depends on do you prefer Samsung Experience or Huawei's EMUI. Because I use the S9+ right now, I would go for the Note FE but I'm biased. But if you want something under 14000MYR, I think Huawei will be better.

  • You must be joking? The phone was only released 1 year ago. How can you own it for almost 2 already?

  • I think it's better to buy the mate 10 pro since emui is more optimize than samsung's ui. I watch some reviewer said that the battery life is very good. for me poor battery is a deal breaker cuz I like to play games on my phone

  • Bro thank you for the review! I'm thinking whether to buy the note fe or the honor 10. Which one should I pick? both of the phone have almost the same price here in Malaysia which is under 1400 malaysian ringgits.

  • That is true. Limited availability is also a factor why many don't know about this phone. I agree though it is a really nice phone.

  • I have this phone for almost 2 years now. I love it! Perfect size for me. May not look as good as Note 8 or 9 but I prefer the size of this one. I don't play games here but use it more as a business phone. Used it more for notes, emails and I use it alot when I am travelling. Camera is also quite good. Though I would really like the s pen as a remote😁 will have to wait and decide until this phone is not useable for me anymore.

  • Thanx dear...!!

  • Well, CONS: -crippled USB-C: NoteFE doesnt support HDMI over USB-C. Only way to is to stream via wifi.

  • Goto samsung service centre ...they will change your phone s motherboard

  • heyyoo, fellow malaysian here using this Note FE

  • Hey everyone, it's gonna be a long detailed review from me, i don't really know if anyone interested in this phone, but seeing that there is actually a lack of interest from reviewer to get in depth with this phone, i decided to take this matter to my own hand. Brief summary and My Final Judgement (For one who hates reading longer review) : The Note 9 is the best Note series in everything, but the Note FE is the best modern Note you can buy for the price. It is Note 8 without newer processor,bezel-less displays, bixby voice, several software, dual camera and fingerprint reader at the back. For someone looking for a phone with a pen in a mid tier budget, then this is the phone. Even if pen is not the main thing and you just want to look at mid tier phone, it still worth a look as well. The PROS are : + It has the S pen One of the differentiating features between a Note series and regular phone is the S pen. The one who is willing to spend more time with it knows that it isn't just for drawing random things at the unlock screen. As a student, around half of my notes now are done within the samsung notes and pdf reader (mine with adobe acrobat). It really saves alot of paper because i can print many things into just one single paper. Other than that, i can draw inside within penup app and sketchbook. + The camera The single rear camera still stands out when you compare it with some flagships, let alone newer low/mid-tier phone. But honestly newer flagships would outperform this by miles too. The camera is quite capable for zooming in whiteboards from some distance (around 15-20 ft is still acceptable) but any second zooming camera would help it better. For a general situation i think it's still good and capable. + The display is an eye candy. Capable of HDR and Quad HD resolution means film streaming is nice. Not to mention it is an OLED, meaning colors are great while saving batteries too. + RAM management is great. Forget the 10GB RAM gimmick installed in newer gaming phone. With just 4GB, Note FE seems well holding on for even higher demands in android apps nowadays, so i think you don't need to judge it by its RAM amount. + The processing unit is quite stellar for an ex-flagship. Holding on a respectable score of 140-170k in Antutu, meaning it's a little bit above newer mid-tier phone and just shy a bit when compared to phones with snapdragon 835. Decent gaming performance is guaranteed too, you can throw anything from heavy game like Fortnite, PUBG, AoV, RR3 without issues and enjoy casual games as well. + Heartbeat and SpO2 sensor It is quite a gimmick for a normal user, but can be useful if you likes to do sport activites and wants to track your heartbeat easily. + Headphone Jack I nearly forgot about this, the jack isn't as great as LG V series with quad DAC and bla bla but no matter what, i still prefer anything with a headphone jack because wireless audio still lags behind wired audio and mostly equipment in my studio is still wired. For one that doesn't really bothered with the loss of headphone jack, it is still a nice addition + USB C 3.1+Fast charging USB C means you can find the cable easily because most android and some newer laptop has this port too, so there is actually alot of demand for USB C. USB C can be used easily to project with something like HDMI too. The 3.1 version of USB C means it can transfer data fast. Fast charging is included with the charger, and with a 15 minutes charger it can last at least an hour or two. + Clear view cover included in the box You dont really need to buy additional case for this particular phone because they shipped it inside. Clear view cover also means you can look at the clock even if it is closed with the cover if you activate the Always on Display. Mind you if you already have the old Note 7 clear view cover and want to put it in your brand new Note FE, it won't work. I do appreciate this kind of generosity :) + IP68 certified Dont worry using this phone in a rain or accidentally put this phone in a water. It is water resistant. You can swim with it too as long as it's not that deep,not taking a lot of time, and you are willing to wait until the water dried after you use it. But the CONS are: - Outdated Design For some people, design is their priority. Sadly this phone is supposed to come out at the time where having thick bezel is okay, when it actually comes out at the time where manufacturer started to think about notches, thinner bezel and even sliding camera to accompany the lack of bezel, this looks like a perennial phone. At least it still has the slick edge display - Annoying edge display This is the irony when i say at least it still has the slick edge display. I hate it because it is just annoying when you do work like drawing and it slides down in the edge display - No ARCore Despite having the exact technologies implemented in S7 (processors and cameras), this thing have no ARCore support. ARCore is an app related to Augmented Reality, for example let's say you're in an IKEA and you wonder what stuff is great for the room, you can just project some stuff with your phone to see if it suits well. I've reached out to Samsung and Google but sadly they don't give any answer. - Crippled Bixby Created before Samsung's obsession with Bixby means this phone have no physical button for bixby and no voice support for Bixby. The Bixby inside is mainly for Bixby home and Bixby Vision. I think if they can add the voice command support for Bixby, Bixby would be more useful in this phone rather than just being a gimmicky home. (There is actually the older S-Voice for voice command but Bixby is still better) - Slightly small battery In an era where everyone steps up their battery count up to 4000-5000mAh, this phone is taking the opposite direction. A safety measure to prevent things like Note 7 is happening again, they decrease the battery to 3200 mAh. Depending on how you use it, typically it can last a day with a more careful usage. But with AOD, location, autosync, wifi, mobile data, bright wallpaper and my typical usage by swiping alot of social media, it can't even last a third of a day. - Face unlock with Iris unlock There's nothing really wrong with it, except your eyes need to be in the right position otherwise it won't unlock. Sometimes it's just a bit frustrating when you know that phone nowadays with face unlock is faster due to no need to be in the right position. - Awkward software things This one is just my observation, and some things may change. First of all, this is a Samsung phone and software update isn't the fastest when it comes to every Samsung Phone. Not to mention they usually only give twice major update unlike Google and Apple which gives four. Secondly, this is a phone that comes from a disastrous phone that made Samsung itself want to forgot it existence. For example they announce samsung exclusivity for Fortnite, this phone isn't exist in the list of the phone. There are newer devices like obviously the Note 9, S9, up to the older one like S7 but no mention of this phone. Strangely when I apply it, it can run fortnite rightaway. Android Update to Pie itself is still in doubt. Unlike S7 which released in Marshmallow, it is acceptable that it would end in Oreo but Note FE launched in Nougat. And when you look at websites searching for samsung phones that will get update to Pie, no mention about this one until this time. Recently Wi-fi Alliance has approved this phone for Wi-fi Standard for Pie Update, so will this phone really get the Pie? I still have doubt but i can only hope so because samsung phones mostly got at least two update. Price consideration and competition : The other thing to consider is the price. When i bought the phone back in january, it was 7.5 million rupiah (with current currencies it is 513 USD). Nowadays you can pick it new from 4.5 millioin rupiah (308 USD). It is a quite steep price fall for just 10 months but it is expected. The other phones you would look for alternative at this price point is Samsung S7, A8, A7 2018, Xiaomi Pocophone F1, Nokia 8, Xperia XZ Premium, Asus Zenfone 5. Another budget new phone sporting a pen is LG Q8 2018.

  • Samsung decided to make this just a Korean thing because they did not want another battery issue with this phone. The battery is a bit smaller but other than that, this is actually the last Samsung with an actual home button. Plus, this phone came out right after they imported the Blue Coral over to the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. It's a really nice colour, so props to Samsung for their amazing colours

  • No issues. Excellent phone for its price.

  • From the Netherlands but my Note FE is a Korean version.

  • Which Country Is You From Bro My One Is Still On August???

  • Oh, l see

  • The auto focus of the camera has been slightly slowing down, sometime I have to tap to focus.

  • Samsung FE o hawaui mate 10 pro?

  • Its depend..I am okay with it..everything about this phone is great..people just might dont know its existence...

  • The October security patch is available for the Note FE, I installed it yesterday.

  • Oh, l see. It is Note Fe really that bad? Coz a lot people not really like it

  • I am curious too..Might be the outdated design is the cause since malaysian are quite up to date in term of the device looks. Might also be the price that almost the same as s8...

  • So, I m very curious

  • Nothing, coz I didn't see any Malaysian using this phone

  • Yes all sensors stopped working!!!!!!!!After oreo update Why samsung why!!!!!!

  • I am currently using this phone too bro..Any issue?

  • Fe better

  • No. Because the pen of Note FE does not have Bluetooth. Note 8 pen also dont have bluetooth.

  • Which is better this phone or A7 2018

  • Yes shutting down gives a short vibration. Does the vibration motor works? Does it vibrate when you receive messages or calls and also when you boot the phone? I have not seen this issue before and my Note FE does not have it.

  • Hi! I just realized that my phone doesn't vibrate after shutting down. This happened the last two days. Somebody could tell me anything about this? I can't find anything on internet about it. They usually do a short vibration after shutting down, don't they? It is also draining faster the battery. Thank you

  • If it happens again I will use my Note8 cable to try that out.

  • Hi, excuse me, may I ask are they any Malaysian using Note Fe same as me?

  • Can the NOTE FE Stylus/S pen activate the camera and be used as a remote control to take pictures / selfies as found in Note 8 and Note 9? Any NOTE FE owners can advise?

  • Every Samsung Phone Got To Major Updates I Heard The Rumor That Samsung May Update This Phone To Android P

  • Have You Tried Changing Charging Cable That Came With The Box? My One Got The Same Problem I Buy New Cable From Market And Use With The Phone Now Everything Is Working Perfect Despite How Many Times You Charge Its On Fast Charge Hope That Helps

  • Here's the situation I encountered for the first time: I wanted to charge the phone as usual, fast charging enabled. it started to charge, after an hour I looked at the progression, and it charged only till 26%. I unplugged, and put the charger in again. I came back after 30 minutes and it didn't charge at all. I used another wall plug, it didn't charge. Unplugged every wire, and started the charge again, which now finally worked. Strange situation, anyone with the same problem?

  • The ONLY downside for this device is the system software stuck at android 8.0. Its not even 8.1. Very sad.

  • Help me someone plz... my Note FE’s all sensors are not working, since when I updated to Oreo 8.0 with August 2018 security patch update. I have tried everything, factory reset, hard reset... just everything. I checked sensors by dialing *#0*#, no sensor is showing any reading as it is showing on my S7. What should I do? Last option for me to contact samsung customer care. Anyone having any other solution to this problem?

  • No issues for me on my Note FE running Oreo. Battery drainage is pretty much the same.

  • My Note FE is still on July patch, is that the latest for this phone? My Note8 has the October patch.

  • Use battery saver to reduce draining battery.

  • Its not about the update its about how you use your phone . If you will charge the phone never use it or let the phone on. Just power off the phone while its charging .

  • don't update your phone to Oreo .. the battery will affected.

  • Anyone have issue about update to oreo? maybe battery drain fast.

  • can you please share your experience about this phone battery?? How long it last with you?? Also the fast charging capability? Do the phone have it???

  • Can Anyone Tell Me Will This Phone Get Android Pie Or Experience UI 10?

  • I love the camera. can capture at night.

  • Camera quality is excellent!! It has the same camera sensor which is there on the S7 and it takes absolutely stunning pics in all lighting conditions.

  • to all users can you please post your experience with the camera of this phone

  • Samsung Galaxy Note fe is far more better even if it's a year old.

  • Note fe or honor 8x which one is the best overall?

  • Yes it is good

  • samsung, yateley UK.. Designed & Engineered BY: Samsung manufactured in vietnam

  • Bro ur not fe made in Vietnam are other

  • Sound quality for musics, in FE, is it good?

  • no. it has one side button and one end button.

  • Almost a year, but still worth it .. grab it fast and go for it, you won't believe if you don't have it

  • I already have, 1329 saudi riyal on souq.com saudi arabia.. im happy.. because everything is good.. you will not regret..

  • Thank you for your answer and advice!

  • You're welcome. Go grab it and you won't regret :-)

  • 1. It doesn't have dual camera but the single camera on the FE will blow you away as it is capable of taking stunning shots in any lighting conditions, low light pics are really impressive. 2. It runs on oreo 8.0 but even the S9 is on the same OS. 3. Finger sensor on the front is easily accessible compared to rear mount as you can smudge the camera lens with your fingers on the latter. Overall I'm really happy with this phone, it's the best buy compared to the S9 or the note 8/9 specially at the price its selling right now.

  • Hi. I am planning to buy this phone in September 2018. Is it worth buying? I am getting this in SAR 1399 i.e. Rs 25000 or roughly $ 373 (USD). Is it worth buying? The only drawbacks I see are : 1. No dual camera 2. July 2017 model and upgradable to Android 8 only (not even 8.1.1) 3. Finger sensor on front where usually its rear now Please do reply. It seems to be best in price as you get Stylus note feature in this price.

  • The phone is still in production i believe, it's not yet discontinued, although only officially launched in select regions, but it becomes limitedly available globally by some merchants- of which i received mine. Also, it's easy to spot a fake unit, original unit is Vietnam made and the serial number can be checked online for authenticity.

  • Okay thank you!! That made my decision much easier. I see that the newer notes don't have that option so I'm thankful for that.

  • Does This Phone Get Android P?

  • TheSPen has one button on end/top..Whats the use?

  • Yes there's an option to change message background. Go to message>settings>background and choose which one you want.

  • Which phone is better Samsung FE or Samsung A6+ in performance

  • Hi! I may not postion it on the right forum, but there is not much place can be find. So i apologise if its so. An important question, because a have seen on ebay a Galaxy Note FE, witch was manufactured on 2018.05.25. Is it possible or that is a fake? Thank you

  • Does it have the option to change message background and bubbles?

  • I dunno why would anyone want that but, long press on home screen, swype left and turn on Bixby

  • I get around 8 hours screen-on time within 18 hrs standby and an hour of calls every day. Not very stunning, but more than enough for a full day of above average daily usage.

  • It's WQHD way better than FHD, also you have the option to scale down to FHD or HD to save power.

  • Got it (coral blue) from a store in Bangkok for $367 with one year warranty. One of the best phones I ever had this phone is really a beast in terms of performance & camera.

  • Frim where did you buy it?

  • Does anyone play Fortnite on this phone? This game really drains my battery!! Oh my God!!

  • A8 (2018) / note fe . Which one is the best overall

  • Does anyone play Fortnite on this phone? This game really drains my battery!! Oh my God!!

  • Samsung should have been release this phone with Full Hd Display and release globally,but they didn't do it. This is the perfact phone.

  • This phone has some seriously good camera, in fact the best I've ever come across in a smartphone. It takes stunning low light pics which is really amazing!!!!

  • What is the battery life while watching movies online?

  • Well there's nothing on the cards yet but Samsung gives at least two major updates to it's phones so according to that Oreo was the first major update for the FE after 7.1.1 so android P should be the second unless the company discards it as an outdated note device.

  • Will note fe recive android 9 or not?

  • My cousin has an S7 edge (silver titanium almost an year old) while I recently bought the Note FE, his S7 edge is still running smooth without any pink line issues. At present we both are enjoying our phones :-)

  • Didthe pink line issue appear in note fe like s7 edge for any one?

  • I'm really happy that I preferred this over the S8. It has all the features the S8 has and personally it looks much better than the S8 (coral blue is simply stunning). Camera is top notch I was really amazed by the pic quality specially in low light where most phone cameras struggle. Battery life is rock solid it lasts for over a day with Wi-Fi on for almost whole day also got the original S-view case free with my FE. Overall it's the best high-end phone from Samsung you can get right now at a cheaper price.

  • Hi. Guys who know how can i enable bixby voice🤔?!

  • I just bought the coral blue and it's really a stunner you fall in love with it. Buy the coral blue and stand out in the crowd.

  • Hello

  • no. it is very fast with me on data sim connection lte.

  • Look into "personalized bixby commands", where you can define actions with variables and multiple statements, its actually very simple once you grasp exactly what it is you want your phone to do for you!

  • I hace Coral Blue, really nice! I would buy again blue color!

  • can any person give me any the best color blue or silver

  • Yes it is worth buying.

  • I have Korean version note fe...with Oreo updated... It has Bixby vision and Bixby home. Bixby vision is working good. Any one suggest me how to activate Bixby voice comments.

  • Is it worth ro buy today ? Please reply any note fe user

  • No much diffence for me, still 1d 10h on 100% bat after charge 2 hours

  • NO

  • I have this phone for almost 1 year and 1 month. Great device.

  • Can home button be customised? As of now it can be used for opening Camera/Browser/or reach home screen? Can we assign to different app?

  • I think that after this update my battery drains faster than the one before...

  • Has the patch update made any difference in the area.

  • Does it deserve to upgrade from my s7 edge to note fe?

  • No Volte 😐

  • It safe after the incident. I used it for about 8 months and nothing bad happen

  • Note FE is very stylish phone with traditional samsung button below the screen

  • Anyone here having slow data connection speed(lte)?compared to my brothers galaxy grand prime my lte connection is so slow

  • What about battery life is it good like s7 edge?

  • I am using my Samsung Galaxy Note FE for the past 6 months and it has been my daily driver and I loved it ever since I got my hands on it.

  • Mine is n935fd .. got security patch update yesterday, august 1 2018 around more than 240mb, but still android 8.0 oreo

  • hi all can any tell me Note fan edition is safe ???? please let me know thanks

  • I had the same problem when I bought mine. I also thought that it was a software issue, because a lot of the sensors weren't working. Took it to my local samsung store, told me that it was a defect product. Returned it, got me a brand new one. All fine now. Hope it helps

  • Two options: Korean Note FE: No branding on the front Global Note FE: Samsung branding on the front

  • I own a Note FE, bought from an official samsung store. Yes, there is samsung logo below the earpiece.

  • Does note FE have samsung logo on bottom ear piece speaker? I saw on stores saying samsung galaxy Note FE but have samsung logo . Original or fake?

  • I have installed a Note 7 display in my Note FE and works perfectly!! I'm happy to know that it was possible!! My phone now is really a mix between Note 7 and Note FE!!!

  • Just go to "Settings"/ "software upgrade" and check if you have any new software available to download

  • How can I get security code?

  • stocks are out. its all faced out good tying I had my hands on the nore FE on time

  • After reading your post I just check it in my phone (Malaysian model) and I just received security patch August 1th.

  • Today I received and installed the July security patch, I have a Korean Note FE.

  • Yes, that is true. I have a Korean Note FE and it has no branding on the front.

  • Hi! I think that only Korean version didn't have the Samsung logo in front. Mine is from Malaysia and also has the logo.

  • Are there any stock available in the Philippines?

  • Why does my mine has SAMSUNG Branding in front?

  • I Feel You! I hate full screen phones with notch. Also full screen phones drains battery and gets hotter quickly

  • I think so. Good luck

  • Im using Note FE for 6 months. Upgraded to Oreo (8.0) better battery and less heat 👌 Don't buy full screen phones (as of now), battery drains and gets hot more quickly Hope this helps

  • Hi , Just a very few question here , I love Note Fe but something that really bother me . 1 , Social Media Lag - I use Instagram daily but when I post the insta story sometimes it works sometimes it just keep showing posting all day and It can't do anything like delete ... I have send the repot to Instagram , but nothings works ..... 2 , PUBG / GAMING - 4GB ram in this device but why the gaming feeling are so worst then a Iphone 7 , I have check thru a lot of way , open gaming mode , turn on developer bla blaaa , but it still not works ... Just like some details is keep bothering you , but overall are very nice phone to use if the few things are not bother you , 3200 battery , Type-c fast charging , IP68 water resistant , AMOLED Sceen display , and cheap price for if you like the S-Pen ....

  • I bought a new note only six month. My problem is touch screeen always slow responsive. I have adjust pointer speed but still problem.

  • I'm having problems with my note fe. It frequently restarts, the iris scanner and the ambient light sensor are not working. I tried resetting the phone but the issues are still there. Anyone else having problems? Do you think this could be fixed by a software update? Was it maybe caused by one?

  • I would go for the Note FE if only for its looks alone. Still such a beautifully designed phone without notch.

  • I already have the Note FE for a year.

  • How's the camera quality of the FE compared to the likes of S8/S9?

  • battery power can last up to one day.. after update to oreo FE got some improvement...

  • Same here. Atter 3 months, still no prob

  • Note FE is the best phone ever I bought it 3 months before. It's fantastic and not found any problem till today.

  • Huawei Nova 3 if you don’t care about AMOLED and S Pen.

  • Hi! I have the same experience. Im so scared to update to Oreo thinking the battery management will be worse. I even purchase a power bank recently because the battery drain is quite worse..

  • Hi! Did you see any improvement in the battery?

  • if you want the S-pen experience, better screen like of TV when watching videos and playing games, better camera - go for Note FE. But honestly speaking,I have Note FE now and I'd rather buy something cheaper. Buy the new Nova 3i. Much budget friendly. I'm having a difficulty with the battery. Mine doesn't last a day so I have to carry a power bank with me. Another problem I encountered is there is limited cases and accessories (screen protector, tempered glass) for Note FE. If you have the money to splurge why not try the FE. Overall, it is a nice phone. But of course no phone is perfect.

  • Im confused what phone to buy. Should i go to note fe of samsung or nova 3 of huawei? Any suggestion guys?

  • Hola Pietro, Thank you very much for your comment. I really appreciate it. I wish somebody could help me with this issue. I'm glad to hear that you liked coming to Spain! I went to visit Prague many years ago, also enjoy it, I remember drinking good beer and becherovka!! I need to find somebody to see if it is able to change the display... Thank you

  • Holá I am from Czech Republic, I drive to Spain for holidays and business trip.to Barca. Very nice and sunny place, I like it lot.. Back to your FE, the service who told you the Note7 and NoteFE got other type of battery are correct. But they are wrong with the information that the body or display is different. The battery of Note7 got capacity 3500mAh-(bigger), than NoteFE 3200mAh. These different -300mAh are not impact the body diameter.. :-D Recommendation: buy the display and go to Not-Official Samsung service and let them replace the display only. It is easy.. But be careful, the replaced display are not in the same endurance and impact quality.. Good Luck! ;-)

  • Anyone,how good the performance and the battery wont explode right??

  • I just upgrade my FE from nougat to oreo.. its fine bro

  • No it would be just fine, mine I already upgraded with no issues.

  • Anyone, should I update my phone? Will I face any problems if I update it?

  • yes it works

  • I sent the link to a service center to ask them if they could install it, and they told me that Note 7 and Note FE have different batteries so the chassis might be different... Where are you from, where did you buy it? I'm from Spain, here I can't get any pieces for this phone. I bought it in Malaysia. I need a new display!!!!

  • Thank you for your comment. I also think like you,very happy with the phone. It fell off from the motorbike while I was driving...realized in the moment, stop and saw the poor phone with the glass broken. Still works perfect. It is broken on the sides...this happened 2 months ago, I can't get a new display anywhere. I found this one in Ebay 2 days ago and not sure if I have to buy it or not. I would like to see my phone shiny again.

  • Yes, You can replace the display from Note7 to NoteFE, it will work.. The hardware from both devices are totally the same.. I got also NoteFE blue coral Dual Sim, can not imagine to broke one day the display :-( NoteFE is after Note7 for me the best Note ever.. I dont like the new type of infinity displays, sorry Samsung. I wish many good luck with yours NoteFE :-)

  • What abaut the camera..?

  • Can I install the Note 7's screen in the Note fe? I found in Ebay a screen for the note 7 SM-N930 and it also say that works for the note fe SM-N935F. Anybody knows? I have to replace the screen with broken glass

  • AOD is off? Mine drain 40% Overnight (8 hours) with Flight Mode but Yesterday i brought it to Service Centre and Finished Today (in Warranty),, They Replace the Machine and battery,,

  • Battery is average bro.. I don't play games on my Note FE except multitasking stuff for work aside from WhatsApp, FB and IG. Can't complain about the 3200mAh though as it depends on what we do with it and frequently terminate background apps running in the background to get extra juice.. After the last update PDA N935FXXU2BRF1/ CSC N935FOLB2BRF1, the battery lasts slightly longer.

  • I have Note FE, been in love with this model since Note 7. and My Note FE works perfectly, battery can last more than a day with full charge for less than 2 hours. Love this phone!!

  • My camera often has wavy moving lines when taking videos under a lighted room. Does anyone experiences this?

  • I want to buy this mobile divice...but this was banned in india..how can i get it ....IS there any issues facing in heating or battery drain..or any thing..reply me my dear NOTE 7 USERS...

  • then tell them to help you fix it,

  • All sensor not function even factory reset and wipe cache, most probably was hardware motherboard issue. Phone no drop, no drill, no burn and taking care like a baby. Buy from samsung authorise dealer and use only 6 months. VERY DISSAPPOINTED, DUN BUY IT!

  • nevermind the disabler app found one that is working and updated, Choose Download Locations for Package Disabler Pro v12.3 (Paid) Direct Download APK Server3 perfectly working to disable bloatware

  • Which is a better version for NOTE FE? Nougat or Oreo? In terms of battery life, stability, performance and consistency. And are there any working App disablers at the moment? may you give me download links? Thank you. Bk package disabler and package disabler aint working anymore. Thank you very much

  • Does it support Gear VR?

  • How is your battery time brother? I have got the note fe and honestly i love it but battery time is a downside. Overnight it drop almost 10 to 11 percent in 8 hour in standby. How is urs? And what is screen on time?

  • I bought Samsung Notes FE sometime back. I have notice one problem, whenever Phone call on one SIM card is active, Data connection on other SIM card stops working. Also tried switching Voice and Data SIMs between slot 1 and 2. The link for Samsung support is also not working.

  • its pretty smooth but put the frames on high instead of medium

  • Is April still the latest security patch available on the Note FE? I am still stuck with the April patch.

  • Anyone Tried PUBG on Note FE, if yes how does it work on medium settings? Is it smooth as i looking forward to buy and i ll be playing PUBG alot. Thanks in advance

  • I got my Black Onyx Note FE yesterday and simply love it.. I do have my Galaxy Note 5 which is still in pristine condition but the lack of AOD, sidebar and SD Card slot really ticked me off. But after fiddling the Note FE, I knew I made the right choice. Galaxy Note 8 price is way too far for me to reach but I got the next best thing. Galaxy Note FE, a smartphone worth buying and with its IP68 rating and upgradable to Android O (upgraded) and Android P (future update). So far I have encountered no issues with it.

  • If you want the S pen but dont want the Note8, theres no reason for the S7 Edge, if you can live without the pen, just buy the S7 Edge

  • Its the Note7 curse...

  • For a phone that focuses on mainly NOT having the battery explode, I say its normal.

  • A software update is available, it says April security patch but it already has the April security patch. Anybody knows what has changed?

  • True. Try upgrade.

  • Hi guys. What is this phone's quick charge technology? Which car charger should i buy? (qualcomm quick charge 2 or 3, samsung fast charging or something else?

  • Of course that´s normal using for sharing internet as router increase power demanding

  • i had a trouble with my fingertouch APP after updating to Oreo 8.0..Anyone has similar issue?

  • Please go ahead; the product you are receiving throug souq is Saudi version

  • I got my note FE yesterday(19-jun-2018). I am using it as a wifi modem and using for calls. battery was full in the morning and at five afternoon it is 46%. is it normal?

  • Im having this problem too with my samsung note fe. At first i was thinking because is a curve screen and this is my first curve screen phone and after learning is actually the phone defect. Very dissapointed with samsung

  • i only need to charge 1 time a day(so far it last more than a day without heavy gaming). Either yours are defective/clone or trolling. Hopefully youre trolling. I love my note fe. It is a great phone with a reasonable price.

  • after 30 minutes of pubg, my phone can heats up really hot. is that normal?

  • When my battery life is at 20%, my screen on time is only 4 hrs 30 minutes and cell standby would often eats up about 25% to 29%. is that normal? how to fix the cell standby issue

  • Is it normal for my phone to heat up really hot after 30 minutes of pubg? all my settings are the lowest

  • I have a Note FE and it's working fine no issues.

  • I'm also planning on buying next week at Souq.com. Btw, I'm also here in the UAE. One of my friends bought there at the seller named iGadgets-store. The unit was Middle East version and hopefully I will get the same version because I don't like the Korean version as it was full of bloatwares from the Korean carrier.

  • Really? :( I was about to buy it. is it because of the sensor problem?

  • now in Indonesia, most FE got broken , even only a week old. option is to change motherboard or refund.

  • Omg same i charge twice a day atleast . And at games like pubg it does really heat up

  • Note FE or S7 edge? Please help me decide.

  • Where can i find it??

  • upgradable to oreo 8 no oreo 8.1 + no android p is it worth it ? NO

  • Yes it does

  • Does galaxy note fe have app lock??

  • My Note FE battery life is good bro . Even I updated to OREO battery is way more better. My phone battery take 2 days . BTW im working 8hrs/day but still battery life's so good . I think it will really depend on the phone you got bro. And how You use it. If im not working and sometimes during break time at work Im playing NBA 2K18 but the battery still in good stat. Whenever I play NBA 2K18 or other games in my phone im monitoring the battery percentage. sometimes battery drains 2-5% whenever im playing for an hour or 2 . Here's what I can suggest to all of you brothers and sisters . Whenever your charging your phones dont use it. Charge the phone and make sure your phone is turned off/switched off

  • Well it's normal considering you play graphic intensive game 'PUBG'

  • Those issue should be fixed when you already update to oreo. The battery drain is not really a problem considering it is only 3200 mah. The Note Fe specs itself is quit consuming battery. The screen, the processor I guess.. unfortunately, as I know all Note FE are using Exynos 8890 instead of previous Note7 processor Snapdragon 820 (which as know is consuming less battery).. but yeah.. it is fast charging still :D

  • Are you serious? Ofc your phone can heat uo while gaming. It's a phone not a PC. And ofc games drain more battery. Games put the mos1t stress on the chip

  • i bought my note fe in april this year, but i always need to charge twice a day. is that normal? if i used it for gaming, my batteryy drains faster. Btw, my phone can heat up really hot if i play pubg

  • most features are really awesome except the battery. mine is still on Nougat btw. for the first 2mos it was great. after that, the battery ia draining like crazy. stand by mode for (during sleep) 7hrs but my battery is drained for 22%. no wifi, no running apps, display brightness is at lowest. hope your unit is fine tho. im still unsure if i will upgrade to Oreo.

  • hi did you update yours to Oreo? hows the battery? mine is still in Nougat and was good for the first 2months. after that, it has been draining like crazy even when in standby mode without wifi, 0% brigtness, no running apps on the background. i sleep at 3:30am the batt is at 60%, when i woke up at 10:30am its down to 38% already. this is such a let down. i have Sony with has only 2300 mah but my new Samsung is way worse!

  • got my Note FE for 3mos. i love it! fast charging, great display, decent sepakers, cool Spen, free case, awesome gaming experience all at an affordable price! But my main concen is the 3200 mah battery. I have a Sony which has 2,300 mah only. But my new FE is way worse. Like the batt is draining when im asleep.. no wifi, no running apps, 0% display brightness. What in the world is happening?!

  • I've gotten over 5 hours screen on time over a 24 hour cycle on average, brightness about 50-75% with an hour or more calls. I can get 48 hours with 4.5 hours screen on time (standby takes about 4% overnight for me and I'm on oreo)

  • Agreed. I get over 5 hours screen on time with approx 75% brightness set to auto. Im totally impressed.

  • Can someone give me suggestion which one should i buy between this note fe or mate 10?both are almost the same price n i cant decide which one should i buy..please someone give me advice..

  • Yes bro . There will be new features in OREO update . And mostly better performance mostly gaming

  • Hopefully there will be Review for this Samsung Note FE on OREO update

  • Is it recommendable to update to Android Oreo for Note FE?

  • Is that available here in the Philippines?

  • Hello, where can I buy screen protector and cases for this phone? I want to send to Spain. Thank you

  • I don't think it will become available in India at all...

  • When Galaxy Note FE will be available at Indian market?

  • Thank you, now it work.

  • same problem with my phone.

  • Guys on the OREO update does the samsung note FE have Bixby voice natural language commands and dictation?

  • Just got my Oreo update . My Note FE became more awesome!

  • Why my note fe have a bug about sensor 😐😐😐

  • Does it support connecting the HDMI cable to display on TV screen?

  • Smoother performance. New feature for samsung keyboard. Live message available. Plus.. battery way better (remember it's only 3200mah haaha..) While you finish downloading, the updates and feature wont regret you 😃

  • Please for more information the detail usage in normaly and hard usage, Pleaseee answer with hour usage. Pleaseee Pleasee #thankyou

  • How was it bro ? I'm still waiting for my phone to finish downloading the update

  • if anything happen like you said, the only choice will be power bank. now a days powerful slim power banks are available in market....

  • If you want the s-pen the only choice is the Note FE, but if not, then I would go fot the HTC U11 which looks absolutely stunning and is cheaper.

  • Mine just got an update yesterday! Yay! 😄

  • Which one Should I buy the note fe or the htc u11 or the motorola z2 play?

  • Battery life is good, smoother experince with samsung experience 9.0 with oreo 8.0, great camera quality, great display but my only concerned is that, there is a lacking of accesories such as , screen protector, tempered glass, casing etc (which can only purchased online and its hard to trust honest online seller nowadays, as far as i concerned). I wonder where should i replace the battery after i have to replace it for 1 or 2 years of lifespan? Is there any samsung battery service centre for note fe within Malaysia? Note FE seems lacking of accesories after the failure of note 7, I can never found any accesories of Note Fe in the smartphones market recently, even at Samsung Official Centre in Sarawak, Malaysia. I think i may face an issue to replace the battery one day. Is there any suggestion anyone?

  • Thanks man

  • Thanks for the response... I was happy and contented for the overall performance and package of this NOTE FE... Perfectly value for money...

  • The ones without Sammy logo is for Korean market. The ones bearing Sammy logo is for international version (Malaysia, Indonesia and some other countries outside Korea)

  • I have only one curious question... Why my Note Fan Edition (FE) is still with Samsung Brand Logo in front (GOLD color)? Which they announced that the brand logo in front was removed to identify the unit as NOTE FE? Can someone give me any feedback regarding this? Thanks

  • note fe is much better

  • Thank you so much. I have been in trouble with the camera app stopping when entering pro mode. Your advice fixed it.

  • My FE's battery is great. Have you upgraded to oreo? It works better in the update.

  • You will get oreo update for Philippines in about 1week. But not more than 1 week. 😊😊😊

  • Already released last week for Philippines. Did you root? If you have root, OTA update will not work.

  • Dont get the lg g6...battery life only average...screen in time is abt 4hr to abt 5hr only with average usage

  • Hi guys. wanted to ask . does anyone using samsung note FE philippines? does anyone know when we'll get oreo update? tnx . God bless

  • Galaxy Note FE or Asus Zenfone 5 (2018)?

  • Battery Life is Good.. it runs for whole day for a normal use. But for heavy usage it runs at about 6hours. This is a great choice and value for money mobile, high specs with a cheap price. Everything is great with this phone, and I think this is one of the under rated mobile since NOTE 7 got a big issue before. But with this Re built Unit what a SUPERB choice.

  • im not sure about other people's standard of good battery life, but my Note FE last the whole day with moderate to heavy use. (down to 35%-45% at around 5 PM) the battery life is pretty good especially after Oreo update, the efficiency has improved. not to mention Bixby Vision and other things that come with Oreo.

  • battery life is not good? is this true? plz reply i am planning to buy not fe

  • Thanks you so much, it work!

  • can you tell me about battery life in note FE??

  • The Battery life is not good

  • I confuse to choose galaxy note fe or lg g6, at the same price here, which the best to buy right now

  • Check out extra store in KSA today’s special discount 1499SAR

  • Hi, Here too as well (happened in one of my units, but not on another) so it's a settings causing the issue, but there is an easy fix ;) Just go to System / Apps / select "(camera)" and clear data and cache. It will fix the "crash" issues especially when entering "pro" mode. Regards, FJorgeR.

  • I have owned this phone since February. Recently, when people called me, I can hear their voice clearly but they cannot hear my voice. What's the problem? Btw, my phone is always on silent mode.

  • I totally agree with that, I also have both but the Note FE is just so nicely designed. Really gorgeous phone. I am running the Microsoft launcher on my FE with the oreo update and so far it all worka fine.

  • I love this phone. I actually bought the Note FE after I bought the Note 8. I'm keeping both, as the Note 8 is a great phone as well, but there is just something about the design of the Note FE that I love. Not to mention the fingerprint scanner is so much easier to use on the Note FE. Battery life is decent and I can easily get through a full day with moderate use. If you do some heavy gaming like I do on certain days, you will probably need to charge at least once midday. As far as the experience, it's mostly the same as any other recent Samsung device. I have a Note FE model from Saudi Arabia and it's running Oreo right now so if you didn't get the update yet it is likely on it's way soon.

  • philippines by the way

  • Just Got the Andoid 8.0.1 plus the samsung experience 9.0 in addition android 8.0.1 brings Bixby Vision

  • I have checked it was 1599 in hyperpanda until 9th may. Please notify me if there are any offers on note fe anywhere in riyadh.

  • Available in hyperpanda for 1299sar for 9th May only Riyadh and other branches of KSA

  • I have samsung note fe. Very good display, big battery, no lag. Still waiting for oreo update. From Philippines

  • when do you write battery life (endurance rating) please ?

  • Go settings and apps application , select camera and clear data , then will back to normal

  • Examples?

  • After the Oreo update the camera app has a lot of force closes.

  • I was told you can buy it at Extra stores for 1499 Riyal (maybe more expensive, don't know).

  • Is it too hot, like 45 ° or more?

  • How about the battery life?

  • At present no issues.. all going well...

  • Korean made where brought in the philippines or from another country?

  • Is there any issue with the update?

  • The note FE i acually was the failed note 7, but in another brand and batteries!

  • With oreo update.... now can use Live Messages....awesome

  • Perfect.My note FE already received android oreo update.

  • Yes itz avalible on Soaq.com or sa go and search i think 1500 to 1800 Ryl is price..

  • yes for 1500 sar on souq.com

  • is this phone available offline in KSA

  • downloaded oreo from installed and working fine !!! Enjoying

  • For N935F, only Saudi-Arabia and Malaysia have received Oreo. Other countries will follow soon.

  • philippines?

  • Mine SM N935F/ DS got Oreo update

  • I got my phone in the philippines. I will need to check it once more to manually update. But is the phone working well in OREO update?

  • It's available now on SamFirm and sammobile for free.

  • Yes, but you need to pay 8 USD. Also, the update was withdrawn by Samsung because of issues. Some people report it is not possible to charge phone when turned off. So if phone dies because of empty battery, not possible to charge and will have dead device.

  • Can we download this firmware from somewhere

  • No; I got the update which is KSA model

  • It depends on which version you have. If I’m right, so far only the Korean versions got the oreo update.

  • Just check manually

  • Some says samsung note FE already have the OREO update but I cant get mine . huhu what happened?

  • It will work, you have to use local SIM and use it for couple of hours in middle east, then you can use any where in world....

  • oh that is a good news, I have a doubt to buy here in UAE in online shop. but now Its clear BTW in from phillipines

  • According to Samsung KSA's website for the Note FE, the one sold there has the following bands: 4G FDD LTE B1(2100), B2(1900), B3(1800), B4(AWS), B5(850), B7(2600), B8(900), B12(700), B13(700), B17(700), B18(800), B19(800), B20(800), B25(1900), B26(850), B28(700) 4G TDD LTE B38(2600), B39(1900), B40(2300), B41(2500) 3G UMTS B1(2100), B2(1900), B4(AWS), B5(850), B8(900) It has quite a wide range of bands so it should highly likely work baring any exceptional circumstances.

  • Waiting for the same answer from somebody who used in India

  • Did any one using note fe in india which bought in Saudi Arabia ? Will it support Indian networks?

  • Where can I buy another screen? Someone can help me? I need to send it to Spain. the screen works perfect but the glass broke... Shall I buy a new screen or a new phone? There is a place where they replace only the glass...not sure if I should try it

  • Mine is coral Blue, really nice! I wasn't sure about it but everybody that sees the phone says that is beautiful

  • I would buy black or silver

  • yesterday it got updated to Oreo, working cool, if you are using moderately battery will last more than a day.

  • for my opinion note fe is awesome and worth for buying

  • I updates the FE to Oreo and it works the same as my Note8, fluid and no issues. Battery life remains the same. The only few changes are like the always on display clock styles and the Oreo changes, so not many changes that are very noticeable.

  • please tell me if any one using this mobile and how its working any problem you facing please share so that we can trust on your openion

  • Its really good. I have no regrets of buying it. Specially now its updated to oreo.

  • Yes

  • which model got oreo.... is it galaxy note fan edition (sm-n935f)??

  • Still available.

  • Not a user but I reckon that others would appreciate some up to date reports from the field. Like how's the Oreo update's improvements, bugs (minor or major) and overall user experience. Keep it coming fellas. I'm still holding out some hope for a FE 2 with a full FLAT screen this time. No need for the 18:9 trend and preferably with a bigger battery. Also a midrange new Exynos should be good enough, no need for it to be too close to the top Note. Problem is it seems that Samsung is still risking it with an expanded A series range.

  • My Note FE got the oreo upgrade yesterday, it was about 1,3GB. I have the Korean version.

  • I have a idea to buy Note FE... What is the best color to choose? Black Blue Silver Gold

  • How is note fe I m planning to buy, please suggest me if you think it's good. Thanks

  • Korean version gets Oreo, finger crossed for mine

  • WOW...that's great (y) please give us the experience after Oreo Update, any specific improvements at Stylus (etc.)

  • OS Upgradable to Oreo

  • Extra Stores KSA selling Note FE for SR 1499 Offer available for 3-4 days

  • Samsung note fe in saudi arabia starts receiving oreo update. I got mine just now.

  • 2 days before Souq price was SR 1400 today price is SR 1499

  • Then the price changed. Two days ago Samsung-Store-KSA was selling for 1499 SR.

  • Yes. I couldn't believe it myself. But Samsung Korea has made available Oreo update for all Korea variants (N935S/L/K). For N935F/FD we still have to wait.

  • Souq price is SR 1499 only

  • In SAMMOBILE site have written South Korea receiving Oreo update already Is this true ?

  • Don't lie bro. Check souq. Still 1600 SAR MINIMUM

  • Imranjan, device is considered old already. Maybe will receive more updates, maybe not. I think maximum will receive one more update (security patch March/April 2018). If lucky, might get Oreo.

  • U r right. I forgot USA and international version were different. However, Exynos still means difficult to get cuatom ROM. And for Oreo I still doubt. It's not even receiving security fixes anymore. Samsung don't care about this device from the beginning. Price in KSA dropped to 300 USD. Cheaper than S7.

  • battery life on this device Note FE ?

  • is this device Note FE, getting latest updates from Android......(security updates etc.) Anyone using Note FE....please inform me ?

  • this talk not true at all the original Not 7 had exynos except USA version it only had snapdragon every one can searches at this site to see that and it will have Oreo update very soon

  • Arright. I use it for Osu!ing anyway so no big loss.

  • No. Original Note7 had Snapdragon. NoteFE has Exynos 8890 (same like S7 international version). Exynos probably means no custom roms.

  • I don't think it will get Oreo update. It is already receiving less updates than A5 2016. Most devices have not seen a single update at all. And it's only sold in a few markets. So, don't get your hopes up. Note FE is a dead device. Feel happy if it gets Oreo, but don't count on it. Be happy if it at least gets any additional security updates.

  • Thanks. I will.

  • No information; contacted Samsung KSA; they are not aware about software updates

  • When does the note FE gets Oreo? anyone knows?

  • I have both devices and I cannot use the Note8 s-pen on my Note FE. So I guess the two s-pens are slightly different.

  • How can i drawing in note fe. Can someone help me on this

  • Note FE Stylus Pen vs Note 8 Stylus Pen.... is this 2 devices use the same Stylus Pen technology or different between them ? Specially when it comes to Live Messages....

  • WOW.... that's great

  • thanks

  • In many webs say that it will.

  • As of now, none yet. :( samsung always take s their time with updates. This is a NOTE series so they should be tho!

  • That's bad! Mine drops like 1% /hr with everything else turned off. But yours is like 28% for 6.5 hrs is really horrible! Let it be checked by the service center or you should have it replaced asap while it is still under warranty. Goodluck mate! :p

  • Do this device Samsung Galaxy Note FE, get Oreo update...

  • chiwi, the Note FE is just a Note 7 (yes, the exploding one) with a safe battery, to make sure it doesn't explode. So about the same as S7 Edge.

  • Please added to review galaxy note fan editon

  • I plan to change to Note FE after my S7Edge died last week. Is it OK? Because I dont want to feel that my phone is downgrade, so looking for phone which almost same as S7Edge. To upgrade, i don't have enough budget at the moment. Or do you have any idea which phone will be suitable?

  • Try contacting Jerry Rig Everything. Also get the opinion of local repair shops.

  • This has an old school screen to body ratio. Only has four GB of ram. S8 plus has a 6gb ram version and a new school screen to body ratio. Hmm... tough choice.

  • I've been using FE for 2 months, here are my thoughts. The screen is top notch, but mine is a little greenish. The phone is definitely slowing down, the battery is below average despite I've disabled most Samsung apps. It's still on 7.0. The camera is pretty good at low lighting. The speaker is acceptable in terms of volume.

  • would you go for this one or the samsung a8+ ?.. am planning to buy this, but a8+ got my attention too, was formerly an a7 2017 user..

  • I am planning to buy Note FE, and I want to ask current users the pros and cons of it

  • Agreed. The coral blue is both elegant and awesome.

  • Hello, I bought this phone in January, I'm very happy with it but yesterday I had a motorbike accident, the phone fell of to the floor and the screen broke. I live in Spain I don't know how to fix it. Here they don't have screens for this phone. Can I use the Note 7 screen? Where can I buy it? Is it easy to fix? So sad... I think that the case that comes with the phone didn't protect enough. After hitting the floor the phone went one way and the case to another... Still works perfectly, only broke the glass in the corners so I can use it normally.

  • I already have s7 and wish to buy note fe. I would like to know is there any battery issue with this phone?

  • I have one in Black Onyx and it looks great, but if I have to chose now, I'd go fo the Coral Blue. That color just looks fantastic on this device. Go for the Coral Blue. You can look up some unboxings or reviews on youtube and see how awesome that color looks on the FE (or Note7).

  • If it gets released for the FE I will update. On my Note8 it works fine, no issues at all.

  • NOT true at all, I went to check online stores like Lazada and Shopee. I found so many cases compatible with it like known brands (Spigen, Ringke) and even cheaper brands. Charging port is in USB Type C which is the trend nowadays. It still has 3.5mm jack for audiophiles and bluetooth is up to date so if you prefer using a bluetooth earphones, you won't have a problem either. Camera is only 5mp (front) & 12mp (rear) but my selfie game is sooo strong! Can't ask for a better phone at US $538..... I guess to each is own but maybe if you're rich you may buy another such as Note 8/9 or the Iphone X or even Huawei..

  • PS: the CAMERA is very nice too! even front cam is 5mp only it is very clear, to the point your pores are seen. LOL rear cam is much better at 12mp. the only con for the front cam is during at dark places. but aside from that, your selfie game will be strong with this phone! ;)

  • android P will be released soon and we don't have the Oreo yet :( will you update? im scared with the rumors that it only slows down your phone...

  • go for coral blue! i was initially going for the black one, but the blue is sooo gorgeous especially if brand new! take note i don't like blue at all, but i fell in love with this one. :)

  • Just go for coral blue colour

  • Oh thanks for the review, By the way, Wat color is nice coral blue or black onyx?

  • But with S pen! So much you can do with it especially in work..

  • Bought this phone and no regrets! Will not buy Note8 coz its too expensive plus it'll get old soon like my FE coz note 9 will be released by July/Aug. Will not buy A8, it has probably new specs but it's not infinity display plus in any day FE is a NOTE and will beat A8 which is only a midrange. Plus a8 is too expensive for a midrange phone.. The only con is the Battery. Even in standby mode it seems to consume power. But display is very beautiful, with free case cover, decent speakers, good for gaming because it has large screen.. Plus loving the S-pen!

  • battery is good especially if you use it with FHD, average if you use QHD, very good if you use HD

  • Yes have secure folder app

  • I wonder when this phone will receive the 8.0 update. Still on december security patch, at least my FE. I have a Korean FE.

  • Yes

  • FE

  • not recomended is old phone now and heavy find good accessories in future.

  • normal bat. work time. like all smartphones

  • Yes for both quest

  • How does long this battery life?

  • Which is better a8 2018 or Note FE? And wat are the cons & pros between this two phone? Any have idea? Thanks :)

  • Does note fe have a security folder like A8?

  • This is just an S7 edge with larger screen and Type-C USB port.

  • yes sure..will be good for 2/3 year before u need upgrade

  • Hey Can Anyone Tell Me Is It Worth Buying In 2018? What About The Ram Management On This Phone,Battery Life and Overall Performance?

  • yes i recommend it the camera is very good it is the same at s8 , gaming is very smooth , the phone is very fast and smooth , every thing is good except battery life like all smartphones it is better than oneplus 5t and iphone 7plus you can see that at youtube in battery life test , please samsung try to increase battery life in oreo update

  • would you recommend this phone in 2018 in terms of camera and gaming?

  • the battery will be good after 3 weaks of use , it is alittle pit weak than smartphones use 4000 or 3500 mAm but its good , just wait about 3 or 4 weaks and tell us

  • It will be slightly improved after a short period of use, generally the battery is the weak point of this phone until now . Every thing else is very good

  • I just bought yesterday, battery so horrible. 100% fully charge at 12pm and at 6.30am in the morning, it drains to 72 percent. Standby condition : with wifi connected, gps off, bluetooth off, nfc off. Anyone facing the same problem?

  • Its obvious. For specs, mate 10 win. But for display, samsung win

  • Just wander which model will work with Freedom Mobile in Canada

  • Which is better? Mate 10 or Note FE? Tnx

  • Click here:

  • can anybody tell me how to contact the admin of this pg???????

  • Better for a quality charger. On YouTube there are several videos with tests of different chargers. Avoid the bad quality chargers.

  • Not yet and it will probably take a while.

  • Guys does note FE have oreo update already?

  • You can install it very easily, I post it some time ago. You can check it in xda developers. Here another link:

  • I don’t have to press hard, maybe you must replace the tip of the stylus and see if it makes any difference?

  • The phone is great however the stylus is crap. Namely the sensivity of the s oen in that phone is very bad. You have to press very hard on the screen in order for it to be detected. Rubbish.

  • I am waiting for this phone long time i wish samsung buy this phone in the other countries sooner

  • Looking for wireless charger.... which model should I go for... Can we opt any model?

  • s pen translate is working only in WiFi.and if switched mobile data that translate giving message is network is not available. Battery is normal heating.thats no issue. Sound is average

  • can this work on any gear vr headsets?

  • Does it will be available if oreo update comes?

  • no

  • Guys, does Note FE has live messages?

  • It is because mate 10 has better processor Kirin 970, that processor is more better than snapdragon 835 so it will handled gaming more better. Exynos 8890 is good but since this phone used quad hd, your processor need to work hard to push more power.

  • So cant use lte?

  • Me either. As this is merely note 7 replacement and using unused stock of note 7, i guessed there will be no Oreo update. But its still okay for me at least for now. If update is an issue i might buying another phone with latest update and can be update after oreo 8.0 updates.

  • i have this note fe for almost per a month,and i will said this is a great phone for all aspec..here is my review,,, 1.camera- no issued,coz its great,nice even in low light, just a little sharp but its okey.not far away to my mate 10 and its to much better than my mate 9.video cam also very good. 2.screen diaplay- too much better compare to this my mate 10/9..i think omaled or oled is better for our eyes coz its not use a led bulb for supporting the screen.ips use led bulb,so think about what we want to see in our mobile display,,to see the bulb led all the time (like led bulb in our house) or omaled as we know the creactor its self shining on the display?dont worry about the over colour saturated because its have an option to dicrease the colour as pe our desire.fyi,no any scrath until right now with no wear any screen protector.light replection shine on the glass screen is also very good too.replection issued is my on the top to carefully and reviewers always forget about this.replection more appears on the edge curve screen so its comfortable my eyes also not disturb the diaplay.mybe samsung know about this. 3.sound- audio is everage and for those who is audiophile,i think this is not for u.i dont know why samsung not put high power volume chip at this range price.its not bad actualy but not a same level with this my mate10 also mate 9.mybe to save the battery charge. 4.battery- actualy im so worry before pay this unit coz of 3200 mah battery capacity only so how this small mah power up a long time to this 5.7 inch?...and after use it,,o my god..its almost same with my mate 10 .its not easy running out the % battery charge..its have a fast charging too but not fast as my mate 10. 5.design-honestly,its a beutiful,thin,shining and not overweight.already try to put it in the water and its pure water proft.this phone can give a warning to not charging via usb until all the spill water inside the usb port is dry. 6.games-no any lagging issued at this time even for all heavy game i tried.but still a little slow or more when the last point of AOD game , do not worry because my mate 10 also like that and also i gues its happen to all high end phone .its support vulkan too.so,no problem for gamers.however, my mate 10 is more and more faster smoothly i gues...hehe. 7.stylus- very usefull,we can drawing ,write note and etc.faster writing and sensitive like write on the real paper.no curve edge is more better and practical for stylus series i guess. 8.durability- made by almost intire glass and metal is fantastic beutiful but more risk of broken even scrat after fall down with any surfaces.do not comfident with its gg5.what the point to build it beutiful but at last ugly with the casing for protection.made by plastic is more rugged.so this unit beware of the gravity and do not worry for 1.5m of water. 9.gps,signal- gps is not my priority to use it, so i cant comment about that.for signal recieption,its like a normal phone.also the wifi.all is okey. *its hard to say that all the note fe is a same condition when it out from the factory,so,not all my experience with this my fe is same as with others user.

  • I hope all the versions, quick charging and wireless charging is available; Anybody please confirm

  • Try to change 3G/2G(auto connect) instead of LTE/3G/2G(auto connect) in the settings/connections/mobile networks/network mode.

  • Any issue with connectivity on note FE? I'm experiencing signal drop intermittent. Could it be the SIM card?

  • My Note fe is just great. I bought it on February last month. Bixby feature is just halfway without camera and voice capabilty as we found it on S8 and note 8. Battery life is decent. I dont really care about battery life as i got powerbank to give my note some more juice on its battery life.

  • Already have Samsung Pay at Malaysia Set (SM-N935F/DS) and can be use in Singapore.

  • Look it this way: the only version of the FE with no samsung logo is the korean version (n935s/L/k), you can get one but it is pretty crippled outside korea. All other regions (eg thailand malaysia gulf region, cambodia, phillipines, indonesia) DO have the samsung logo on the top of the screen. I got a note8 in the family and the lack of the samsung logo is indeed very upsetting for me because i always pick up the phone the wrong way around as there is no hint what is top and what is bottom unless you look it closely whre the cam and other sensors are. I know there is the physical home button on the note fe which can be a good hint i still dont mind the samsung logo, after all the original note7 had it too and most ppl buying note fe had and loved the note7 as it was - just my 2 cents

  • I easily get 6-8 hours of SoT, I am mostly on wifi or good reception 4g+ area, I use my phone in qhd as this is the native resolution of the scren and text is not that crisp in fhd. Battery life is not much better in fhd i would say it is not better at all but it is hard to measure. I dont have things on what i dont need. Eg usually bt is off nfc off location is off unless i use gmaps or herewego navi, mobile data is on if i need internet on the go, always on display is off too. The only thing what is always on is the wifi which has no significant effect on battery life.

  • no

  • I always use mine in WQHD and i can say there is not much of a difference between FHD and WQHD in terms of battery life. When im connected to wifi i usually get at least 5.5 hrs sot and 4.5 hrs on mobile data.

  • can we get samsung pay to work in singapore using malaysia version n935f/ds?

  • When u buy a packed of oreo from 7 eleven

  • When the note fe will get oreo...anyone?

  • my note fe was on january 2018 security

  • my wife has an LG 6+, I have an S7. I would never change my S7 for her LG6+. picture quality in low light is very low (very very noisy). the level of image distortion of the shapes in wide angle mode is too high... I would definetly stick to a samsung.

  • Still on December security patch.

  • Where is my FM Radio ? :(

  • For note fe user..How about sound quality for recording concert? Is it best or not?

  • Hello, need some information.. How about Screen-On Time when we use this phone ini FHD resolution? How much for the SoT? Is there a significant different between FHD n qHD in term of SoT? Thanks in advance

  • I was extremely happy when i saw the function "dual video call" on both the camera specs. But when i hit the menu button during a video call, i do not see "enable dual camera". Anybody can help me?

  • Hai..im noticed when put into original full casing, my phone always back to home when open apps..anybody have facing this issue? How to fix it?

  • Yes since July, no issues with the battery.

  • Hi bro Im using mySamsung Note FE for almost 1 year and I dont have any battery problem. The battery life is getting better and better each day

  • No issues. The phone is great. Battery a lot better than my previous S6 edge+.

  • Has anyone been using this phone for more than 6 months? Any battery overheating,etc?

  • Nope...Nokia 8 is da best bcoz pure android

  • If u decided to buy an android ,100% the lg is the best

  • Its a note 7, still dont trust it

  • Which one i should buy LG G6 Or Nokia 8 or Note FE? I will use it for long term

  • i dont think so because it was first used for the s8 right?

  • OK...thank. : )

  • I check it out in Google. I found it in xda developers forum, here the link. You have to watch a tutorial in YouTube, very easy just download apk, no need to root the phone...and the translator translates complete sentences no only words.

  • Can you please share how and where you download the note 8 apk for live message?thanks

  • Wander the DeX station work on Galaxy FE smart phone, anyone can help?

  • In Malaysia set, it has Samsung logo in front... Under the speaker... which is sucks... Very disappointed on Malaysia set... Because in other countries, it doesn't have logo in front... Samsung from Malaysia are the 'BEST'... I don't know why they choose this...

  • You should buy note FE

  • I'm very happy with the phone. I have been using it for 3 weeks. My first day i got a little disappointed with the battery because it seem to drain fast but it last 6hs screen on, so it wasn't bad. I finish my day with at least 40% of battery, some days it last 2 days. Everything is great, the phone works perfectly, I like the camera, the phone is beautiful i also use the live message that is supposed to be only for the Note 8. (Download the note 8 apk) I have a Note 4 so I was used to use the S pen. I like the screen 16:9, better than the 18'5:9 This phone is half the price than the Note 8.

  • This phone is everything I can ask for, descent RAM & internal memory, great feeling when gripping, beautiful design, nice camera & features, also nice original flip cover & headset. For work, it's good to have synchronized s-note which I can write on my tab, another plus point if pairing with Samsung stylus MH5100. Performance is very good to switch between apps like excel, word or any messaging tools. Excellent stylus response in drawing apps like Autodesk Sketchbook, very acurate & convenient to use, no lag or delays in sketching. Good to capture sudden ideas when brainstorming. Good security, it has iris scanner & finger print scanner. Secure folder to keep whatever private. Overall it is one of my EDC that quite satisfied me since Note 7.

  • I think it is a great phone for me,the performance are good ,launch social apps just take a second just a bit lag like during multitasking (like open about 10 apps and may suffer a bit lag which annoys even when email)but got few refresh in multitasking like 1 or maximum 2 app,s pen is good for me to draw something or plan things or mind mapping(i am student)even translate directly by hover on the word,i think daily use are great.Camera is outstnading good in low light capture whole article by use this only take few seconds as fast autofocus available in this device colour production also great and just lack of potrait mode,if got i think it is perfect.Battery life one and a half day till 2 days for me and charge only takes about 100 minutes,okay for me

  • I think it is a great phone for me,the performance are good ,launch social apps just take a second ,s pen is good for me to draw something or plan things or mind mapping(i am student)even translate directly by hover on the word,i think daily use are great.Camera is outstnading good in low light capture whole article by use this only take few seconds as fast autofocus available in this device colour production also great and just lack of potrait mode,if got i think it is perfect.Battery life one and a half day till 2 days for me and charge only takes about 100 minutes,okay for me

  • I can manage it 2 days by regular use,like facebook insta and play few asphlt,also browse too.........open the power saving mode and hd resolution

  • I bought an indonesian Note FE model 2 weeks ago. For me it's a cheaper alternative for note 8, with almost all note 8 feature for almost half the price, i can even use live message and paragraph translate on Note FE using the Note 8 app apk. The only missing feature in note FE is Dual Camera, Infinity Display, Bixby Voice and Bixby Camera. The only bad about note FE is the battery life, you will have need to charge it midday. Personally i love my FE, and for me Note FE is more appealing visually than Note 8, i had the black onyx its super sexy and professional looking, even might be the best mobile phone look ever made not even joking.

  • Can you tell us your experience using note fe?

  • I don't know if they are going to sell it in Europe or Africa, I don't think so... I found a website (etoren.com) I bought one Note FE 3 weeks ago and they sent it to me to Spain. It is the Malasian model, it arrived in just 3 days. It works perfectly, I'm very happy with this phone.

  • I don't know if they are going to sell it in Europe or Africa, I don't think so... I found a website (etoren.com) I bought one Note FE 3 weeks ago and they sent it to me to Spain. It is the Malasian model, it arrived in just 3 days. It works perfectly, I'm very happy with this phone.

  • Go for fe. Flagship camera. Flagship processor. Flagship display. Value for money,,. using Fe for 1 month extremely satisfied. And don't forget about spen.

  • should i buy note fe or A8

  • Yes It Supports Dual Messanger. I use it too.. it's reallly convinient & practical.. :-)

  • Where can I buy it in India or from India... I want this phone egarly pls suggest..

  • Small and very slim, this phone is ideal for girls

  • Note7r Hello  This phone is not available yet in all the world just korea ,malaysia and philipine if i want to get it , must wait samsung until sell it in markets  Someone answer me , is samsung will sell that phone in europe and north africa soon or not ?????

  • The s pen is totally useless

  • Hello This phone is not available yet in all the world just korea ,malaysia and philipine if i want to get it , must wait samsung until sell it in markets Someone answer me , is samsung will sell that phone in europe and north africa soon or not ?????

  • Awesome device.using it for month and I am loving all of it. Totally value for hard earned money

  • Search for Note7 model. It's the same device.

  • S7/S7edge & NoteFE is the same hardware inside. Different in UI. S7/S7edge use old Samsung TouchWizz. NoteFE use Samsung Experience 8.0 (CMIIW). Compact n simple take S7 without edge screen. Big screen with big battery take S7edge. Often take a note go to NoteFE.

  • Note 7 FE is using Exynos 8890 not Snapdragon 821.

  • Yes it does support it. And the battery will be very similar to note 8 because note 8 has better chipsets than note FE, so it would be better power efficiency on snapdragon 835 in note 8 compared to snapdragon 821 in note FE

  • Does it support built in Dual Messenger for Whatsapp specifically like there is in Note 8? Also considering that battery size is only 100mAH smaller than Note 8, but screen size is almost 6 inches small too, it should give better durability as compared to Note 8..

  • Believe me take note FE immediately... away better than S7

  • Take s8+. I am at the first bought Note fe because of s pen features but after using it, i dont use s pen and feels it not necessary for my daily usage. I sold it to my friends which he dying wants to buy note fe which he cant afford with very low price, i take s8+ and feels some better experience compared to note fe. But s pen would be useful if you are a person use the person for work purpose, it is just me because i just use my phone for camera and gaming.

  • Is there any particular reasons why you change your beautiful (i think) S8+ to Note FE? Because i am actually wondering about which one i should buy. The gorgeous S8+ or the cheapper SPen flagship Note FE.

  • Take S7. Note FE is not so good. Touch Pen unnecessary.

  • Guys, really need help S7 5.1 inch or Note FE? Better take pocketable phone or S Pen which maybe necessary? Plzz help me

  • Sorry but do you have both or just compared based on hardware?

  • I have the note fe, my girlfriend the new a8+. Photos in general are more beautiful with the a8+.

  • S8 better camera than note fe..;)

  • Batt not so bad .full charged at 06.00am , @ 5pm remain 10% with internet and youtube almost all the time..

  • Battery life not so good users say :((

  • make a review please with also battery endurance rating.

  • Does anyone owned this one with s8? How the camera performs compared to s8 or s7 edge?

  • Dear GSMARENA, Kindly make a review for this device. ^_^ And any news when it will get Oreo update? Thnx

  • Yes, but not all apps support it. I sett the language of my Note FE to Dutch but when I go to settings for example, only half of it is shown in Dutch and the rest in English.

  • Yes. Note FE supports both Slovencina and Cestina. It shows under the language and input setting.

  • Could anybody tell me, please that samsung note fe does suport languages - Slovencina or Cestina ? Czech or Slovak. Thanks

  • I recently purchased this phone. Does anyone know if this is compatible with Gear VR or Gear VR 2? It was removed by oculus before due to the fiasco. I don't know if it was added as compatible again.

  • This phone perfect for me,especially the spen (doing alots of editing photographic). -Overall Performance fantastic for me. -Battery life for me just OK .normally get whole day normal used like surf internet,social network (data always on) & make some call 10 times day or more.. -Call Quality & Receptions line very smoothly perfect. -The Bad thing for Me,hard to find case for this note fe in my country.coz i prefer like the UAG case.

  • Yes it supports dual accounts for some apps, as long as the apps support it.

  • Confirmed. Dual messenger account for all messenger apps: FB Messenger, Zalo, Viber. I'm not try to using Line, Kakao so not sure about them.

  • Yes, but they don't ship it outside Malaysia. I just bought it. I will receive it next week.

  • guys please advice note fe can support dual account?

  • Does anybody uses the Samsung made alcantara back case? I like this case but it is quite pricey. Not sure if it is worth the money.

  • You can Note FE as low as $490 from online shop in Malaysia (Original SME Set).

  • I talked to them and it is the Malaysian model, they put the final D to let people know that is dual sim. I'm going to buy it and use it in Spain.

  • I just swapped my S8+ with Note FE camera review: the quality is quiet similar. Note FE doesn't supported selective focus for it front camera however more wide angle view I can captured compared to S8+ Display I've missed my infinity display and I'm quiet sick with the black bar when watching the movie/music video that's not in 16:9 usual ratio Speaker Frankly speaking, S8+ speaker is much better and louder than Note FE. More bass sound in S8+ speaker (I'm preferred S8+ speaker more) benefit of NOTE FE S pen (of course S pen features is the main factor to have the Note series) I can use live messenger app without hassle same like I'm using Note8 Coral blue design makes me feels satisfied it's absolutely gorges in every angle of looks Iris Scanner looks more attractive (remind me Dragon Ball series Iris mirror scanner) Type C still reliable and faster like I'm using s8+ Fingerprint scanner located at front feels comfortable (I'm missed my pointing fingerprint) Overal Note FE is worth to buy If you need S pen features like Note8 but can't afford to buy Note8

  • YES to what question?

  • 600$ in Thailand

  • YES to what question?

  • in ebay they sell it for 900$, no thank you!! In Malasia cost 530$ I found another web from Singapore for 630$, but the phone model is N935FD, I´m not sure about that model

  • yes

  • E-Bay...

  • Go for Note FE as it has got OIS & better other features like stylus etc. than A8 or A8 plus. just for bezel less screen / display if you want to buy A8 or A8 plus then go for it. But believe me go for Note FE. Dual sim & 64 gb memory is more than enough.

  • Hello! someone knows a website that sends the phone to Europe?

  • also thinking of buying this one. choosing between this or a gray market s8 or huawei mate 10. im just worried about the support for this phone and reading reviews that its just a bigger s7 edge.

  • there's alrdy January 2018 security patch available. even for N935F/DS type (the one for south east asia region).

  • fe is more better because it can be use underwater using the stylus while other ip68 phone cant be use underwater

  • its seems you are right my note fe stil on August security patch while note 5 and s7 edge already received December patch!

  • Get the A8, or spend a little more and get the S8. Don't go for the Note FE, I'm sure you'd regret buying a phone which Samsung has no desire to support.

  • note fe is better.buy it now

  • go for note FE much better...

  • better go for note fe bescause using a better chipset from a8...just afull screen even infinity but still not QHD superamoled screen...have a lot of feature on it....

  • I bought mine from a retailer, but recently went to Samsung Malaysia to get added warranty and they registered it with no issues. I guess it's just a region specific thing (although it did make me worry awhile).

  • Nope.. Hybrid sim mean use 2 sim card at one time or 1 sim card and microsd card

  • Hybrid sims mean you can only use one slot...either sims or microsd card. It like hybrid cars..either electric or gasoline...can only use one at a time.

  • Too early to say for 2018...if no issue with $$$...go for note 8.

  • My 1st though of getting s7 edge....until when they start selling and price drop for fe...decided go fe better fun with the pen...both this phone is flagship model...have all the stuff i want. 1.7 low light camera, sp02, QHD & Ois.

  • Definitely note Fe is a better buy....it has more sensors and features...camera ois, iris, faster processor, s-voice, smart pen, lighter weight, bixby, etc... I m sure fe will have a higher antutu/base benchmarking...

  • note fe has more function as there is s pen function included while if you want good front camera,a8 has 16 mp compare to 5mp(i just glance through the brochure, not very sure)

  • Is it better than the S7 edge??

  • If this phone worth to buy in 2018 ?

  • But a8 plus 2018 is MYR 2499

  • Depend on your budget.. In my country a8 2018 is MYR 1799 and Note FE is MYR 2199

  • Yes

  • Hi, thank you for the comment. Anybody know if there is two different models? N935F and N935FD? I read that the malasian phone is dual sim. I guess that you can use the second sim slot for microsd? is that what hibrid sim means?

  • Hi! Because I don´t like the 18,5:9 aspect ratio. I have a Note 4 since 2014, still working perfectly, I like the Stylus, and I thought that the FE is going to be the last with 16:9 aspect ratio

  • Guys I really need ur opinion where should I buy NOTE FE OR A8plus(2018)????

  • Why u didn't buy note 8 rather than note fe

  • Ermm.. I don't know.. Because i check samsung website malaysia the slot type is hybrid sim

  • thank you for the comment. Definitely if I have to spend money travelling all the way to Malasia or Vietnam to buy a phone it doesn´t have sense at all...that's why I put in another comment that there is a website from singapur called "etoren" that sends this phone to Spain, they sell it 100$ more expensive than directly in Malasia, but if somebody send it to spain from Malasia I also have to spend those 100$ in taxes anyway...so that it has sense to buy it for 635$? I wrote to them and they told me that the phone comes from Malasia but the model is N935FD...what about that final "D"??? is it because is Dual SIM?? Thank you,

  • Just buy another phone.. It does not worth if you spend money to travel and buy it

  • can you also doodle or create interactive messages here?

  • R3ally? Explain please.. I don't understand how it last 2 days. I'm no heavy user, no games, just social media.don't even last a day.

  • New user? Twice update top (time change battery as 2nd update hit your device), Non flagship get two announcement, but only get 1update

  • i bought samsung FE a month ago. From my experience, i did not encounter any issues. battery is working fine. it does not drain easily. it can last for 2 days with minimum internet browsing. also, i really like the stylus. :)

  • hello please add to review galaxy note fe and update 8.0 Oreo ?????

  • jejeje! thank you for the idea!!!

  • you can travel to vietnam, and then buy one samsung note fe, a few shop in here, selling price 11900000 vnd about 530 usd, after deducting promotion. you can travel and take photograp by note fe, to memory the trip

  • We can use indian and kuwait sim card on this device ? Will this phone can accept indian and Gulf countries sim card??

  • who told that. See Samsung sending updates to the latest J and A series phone it never get android update...

  • As far as I know only the Korean FE is without front logo, other versions do have the branding at the front. So in Malaysia you probably only have the one with the branding on the front.

  • It's always better to buy the newest device like the A8+ than a device like the Note FE from August 2016!!!!!

  • I think note fe(Flagship) will recieve more updates than A8/A8+ S series and Note series only recieve updates for 3 years. J series and A series stuck in its versions

  • Gosh.. Just got my note fe from the service center last saturday. Theey replaced the board and now the same issue is showing. The symptoms are the same

  • Hi there! Anybody knows if this phone is going to sell in Europe??? How can I buy it from Spain? Do I need to go to Malasia to buy it? Thank you!

  • Thank you for the comment, but I didn't found a website from Malasia that sends the phone to Spain, where I'm from. How could I buy it?? I would love to have that phone. Anybody know if they are going to sell it in Europe??? Sadly, I don't think so...

  • By the way thanks man now I'll go for fe I'm here in Malaysia can I ask which better with Samsung logo on d front or with out logo..enough for Sony in 6 yrs heating issue still same for a flagship phone like z3c and z5c I had before can took longer video and play longer games when cp start hot already sucks so lag...

  • The Galaxy A8+ will have more updates than the Galaxy Note FE

  • Battery life for me is fine, but I am no gamer or very heavy user. I have an iPhone 6 and besides of that I don't have too much experience with iPhone but the Note FE surely has more features than the iPhone 7 plus, and a slightly larger display in a more compact form factor. I would not hesitate to recommend this phone, and I am not a very big fan of Samsung... so yes it's a good phone to purchase.

  • I am happy with the Note FE so far, really enjoy using it. I am also not a heavy gamer, so battery life for me is fine, no problems. The only issue might be bloatware. I have a Korean version and it's loaded with bloatware which cannot be removed. But there are Malaysian and Philippine versions as well probably not having this bloatware.

  • I'm a long time Sony user I just want to try Samsung especially fe I just want to know if you've got any issue after u bought d phone how's d battery life I'm not a heavy gamer because I still heard a negative comments and issue about this phone

  • Hi would like to ask how's the battery life for your note fe? And would you recommend it for iPhone 7 plus replacement? Thx

  • Samsung Galaxy Note FE, Malaysia price only USD530.91 now (MYR2100.00)...

  • Note FE still kicking ass with its exynos 8890

  • Which one should you buy: the Galaxy Note FE or the new Galaxy A8+??

  • I don't know because these phones are operating in a different kind of class, but I would say the Xperia is having the newer software, and the updates will roll out faster. Samsung is really slow with updating phones. My Note8 is still on nougat and so is my Note FE, whole Sony is updating its phones much faster. The Xperia XZ1 is a nice compact phone with the super slow-mo video capability, something that I think is much fun. If I were you, I would go for the Xperia XZ1 compact, but I have to say I have no complaints about my Note FE.

  • Any suggestion which one is better note fe or xz1compact still can't decide almost same price I'm using 1 yr old z5compact so lag and battery drain fast after 7.1 update can't take longer video and play longer game because of heating issue even using fb and messenger also lag and cp become so hot in just short period of time using

  • This is a very good mobile

  • samsum has long before now known to be a leading giant in phone making but just quite astonishing their unresponsiveness to new global shift to battery power issues and av low turn around to we-their ptoduct admirer ...... pls we need mid budget phone with better battery capacity... pls note this.

  • Mine only last 19 hours for standby.. idk why.. im really frustrated

  • Standby means idling? Not even pressing the power button?

  • Bought this phone on 22 november 2017 in Malaysia. With wifi I can get 5-6 hours of screen on time. With mobile data most of the time i can get 4 hours of SoT which includes playing Mobile Legends using LTE at high frame rate. Standby time around 21-22 hours. I dont know why you guys keep experiencing problems

  • Samsung Galaxy Note FE review: Battery Life Samsung's Note phones have always had excellent battery life, but the Note FE takes it to a different level entirely. With the screen brightness set to the usual measurement of 170cd/m2, the Note FE's 3,200mAh battery lasted an astonishing 21hrs 57mins in a continuous video-playback test, which is the longest I've ever recorded by quite some margin. The only other phone to even come close is the Galaxy S7 Edge, which lasted 18hrs 42mins under the same conditions. With this kind of stamina, you could easily stretch to two days of use before you need to recharge the Note FE.

  • I just bought it 3 weeks ago and quite frustrated and disappointed as a Samsung supporter. Can Samsung do something about the fast battery drain issue since you recognize it as Fan EDITION ...so pls respond to your loyalty fan???

  • I bought this phone for around 2 weeks ago, i had the international version , the phone is smoother than galaxy s8 when out of the box. But The optimization is very poor, the battery life is very very bad. The standby time is also very very bad . In conclusion this is a right phone,but a ok time not the best time but ok but poorly supported phone since it never had a security update sofar , it never had novembet,december security patch, DEAR SAMSUNG PLEASE FIX THE HIGH IDLE AND BATTERY USAGE PROBLEM CAUSE I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE.

  • I had my Note Fe last December 19, 2017. The service center later found out that it has a faulty sleep mode and its past the 7 day replacement policy. So disappointed with Samsung sales here in Tacloban City, Leyte, Philippines. I demanded a replacement but they rejected my proposition. So they said they just have to replace the board which is really hard for me to understand since it is brand new and only broken old phones deserves to be repaired.. wew. samsung.. now I understand why a lot of reviews says android devices will never satisfy you.

  • Got my Note Fe last December 19, 2017. The 7 days replacement policy sucks. I am really disappointed that the service center later found out that the sleep mode of my FE is faulty and that's after the 7 day replacement policy. I demanded to replace my phone but Samsung rejected me. They said, they will just have to replace the board! damn it's just 3 weeks old and is already being opened. Good as old. Only those old broken phones needs to be fixed. Brand new phones doesn't deserve to be repaired.. FUCK... I hope the integrity of the phone stays the same as brand new..

  • Hi! I just found a website where they sell the Note FE from Malasya, 630$. My doubt is if that website is secure or not, someone who could help! thanks!

  • The most annoying thing to me in Note7/FE is that curved edge. When using pen/stylus most always it'd slipped over the edge, and with that ultra-sensitive touch screen it often unintentionally triggers something we don't wanted to (like ads in Youtube, video's volume/brightness or edge widget), or the phone itself simply slipped and fall (without using case). It comes with case/cover which is very uncomfortable to hold in one hand and *will* make your wrist fatigue, that's why I never used it at home (and you have to fold back the front lid, which I don't think it designed to and will damage it over time).

  • Yes it will get the update

  • This FE edition can get Android 8.0 Oreo on next few months?

  • With my Note FE, I can browse the Internet during 22 hours without charging the battery. This is excellent!

  • just bought note fe around 5 days screen of time 3,5 hours Power saving on Hd on Aod off only WA IG active heavy use simcard only 1 Wifi only at office and home no game very very drain battery different from s7 edge regret bought it

  • Want to buy an note fe unlocked off of ebay but I'm not sure if it'll work on Simple Mobile. Simple Mobile is a GSM service so does anybody have any idea on whether or not it'll work ?

  • Just purchased a Samsung Note FE price drops from 33,000 pesos ($660) to 28,000 pesos ($560) in the Philippines. Still testing the battery, performance etc. So far so good.. Had it 40% went home 29% with data (fb and messenger only) and some texts.. Super love my phone. Birthday gift for myself. 😘😍

  • Note FE also have Snapdragon version and it using Snapdragon 821. For better multitasking and efficiency, it's Exynos. For better performance, it's Snapdragon.

  • Why not this gadget available in India ??

  • Note FE and Nokia 8 which better

  • There is no Snapdragon version Note 7 FE.

  • its original

  • so the note FEs with front logo are not fake?

  • is their Snap Dragon version on the Note FE? which is better, the Exynos or the SD? thanks!

  • Malaysian and Philippine Note FE have Samsung logo near the earpiece. The Korean one didn't...

  • as ASZ mentioned, stand by is when your device is idle/not being used. currently i use an app called CPU-Z. if you're concerned about bloatwares, there is a paid app in Google Play Store that can disable/uninstall bloatware and even disable unwanted system process. it doesn't require root and called Package Disabler? or something like that.

  • Most of the time a phone will stay in standby mode, at least at night when you sleep, also when you're taking bath, eating, exercising, safely-driving etc. Unfortunately, today's bloated apps will continue crunching your battery while in background, gathering your secret and precious data about your private info, then send it back to their home to be violated and exploited. :)

  • what do you mean by standby mode? like you don't totally use your phone and just place it on your desk or somewhere? please enlighten..

  • what app do you use to measure the phone temperature?

  • im not the guy you asked the questions to, but; during heavy gaming, my device temperature is aroun 40°C- 45°C battery never exceed 38°C (40 minutes of OC2 with ultra graphic setting and in a room without air con, around 28°C room temp) so, its pretty unusual for your device to get to over 50°C. screen on time is around 6-7 hours stand by is around 23 hours (100% battery) with optimal mode. you can get a lot more if you switch to mid or max power saving mode, at the cost of lowering your screen brightness and limiting your CPU.

  • Cool phone. My opinios

  • how about standby time?

  • How hot does your FE cpu get while just browsing, facebook, camera?.. does it reach 55°c +-? Also how hot does your battery get? does it reach 42°c +-?

  • That does not include gaming right?

  • 6-7 hours maximum :(

  • G6 or Note FE, it's more of a personal matter, I think the LG G6 can be purchased for less than a Note FE, but overall performance I think they are evenly matched. With the G6 having the second wide angle camera, and the Note FE having the S-Pen features.

  • Why?

  • Thanks man, really appreciate it ;-)

  • can you please recommend a temp app that is good?

  • how many hours does your fe battery last when you browse or use wifi or data?

  • I can tell you why you should buy the lg g6 over that piece of crap called galaxy note fan edition!!

  • Well, for a little bit more. You can have an S pen. An awesome Camera. Its the same with the S8. A bigger screen. Edge curving Screen. Iris Scanner. A well placed Finger print. And a safe battery. I have been using my Note FE for some time. I did consider the G6. But for a little bit more. I get the big screen with curved edges. Gorilla Glass 5. An S Pen which the G6 does not have. The Feature of the S pen alone sold me for the Note FE. This is the cheapest Note ever released. It's processor is equal or even stronger than the Snapdragon 821. Exynos 8890. For a feature that's only found in a Thousand dollar phone.(S PEN) Why not go with the Note FE. You wont regret it. It is a sleek phone. Glass front Glass Back. "The Best Phone you never had"

  • I can tell you why you should buy the lg g6 over that piece of crap called galaxy note fan edition!!

  • Hi guys, I'm currently finding a new phone, which one is the best? Note FE or LG G6? Can someone tell me why I should choose Note FE over G6?

  • It does have a logo for malaysian market

  • Not officially as far as I know, and I am not sure if it will be sold there. The phone is nly available is some Asian markets. But you can try to buy one on eBay for example, just be sure the phone will work on your network.

  • It has Knox version 2.7.1

  • Thanks!

  • Thanks!

  • Its official.

  • I am personally not consern about is there a logo or not. Try to find out inside of phone. The first thing I am gonna check is Knox version which is located in Settings-> About Phone-> Software Information. Only official Samsung device has this security. cmiiw

  • It happen to my Note 5 after I accidentally dropped into hard floor and no way to me to get in back to normal. If you have waranty of your device, bring it to Samsung Service Center.

  • In some product or market location, the Note FE has Samsung logo infront under earpiece speaker.

  • it is not normal to be very hot during video playback or browsing. and you might want to be more specific with "very hot". you can install an app that monitor your device temperature, e.g. CPU-Z. under stand-by or normal use, your device/battery temperature should be around 28°C-32°C. (thats my battery/device temp as i'm typing this) when playing games, your device will get warmer but i never see my Note FE get higher than 42°C. the games i tested were WoTB and Order & Chaos 2 all on full graphic setting and around 35-40 min of playtime. and also consider the apps you installed on your Note FE, some may cause the overheating.

  • The Samsung logo is no longer found under the earpiece. The Korean Galaxy Note 7 never had a front logo to begin with. Nor did the Korean Galaxy S7 or the Galaxy S7 Edge. And for that matter some of the Chinese models also went without front logos.

  • There is no Samsung logo on the front of the phone underneath the earpiece.

  • No - it is not normal. Return it. My one is working perfectly fine sn I love it.

  • Bought Fe last week, I noticed it becomes very hot while using internet either data or wifi.. Is it normal?

  • Yes there is a fast charging power brick included in the box. In the settings menu you can disable fast charging if you like, so you can choose whether to use it or not.

  • I looked on youtube and versions outside of Korea (Philippines, Malaysia) have the logo on the front. Nothing to worry about, just enjoy your Note FE!

  • is it available in UAE...?i want to buy,

  • Is it fast charging...?

  • Note fe doesnt have Samsung logo in front. Maybe you have fake one

  • Well, simply do these steps. Volume down press with power key and home button. All 3 being pressed for 10 seconds until it shuts down. Happens to all phones. Just shows that Samsung still has a few bugs to fix. Nothing to worry about. Unless its a fake.

  • Nothing to worry about. Had the same issue. SEA versions have this. Take it as a complement. Only SEA versions have a Note 7 like front logo.

  • I bought FE few days ago, was working good but today suddenly it hang out like belue notification light is on and screen display shows only SAMSUNG as it is restarting but not restart just hang with SAMSUNG logo on display with low display light, I tried to restart but it is not restarting neither any button working I tried to off it but nothing just displaying SAMSUNG logo, Could anyone help me

  • Perhaps it is region specific, like Korean FE to not have a branding on the front and other models with a branding on the front. Nevertheless it looks good with or qithout branding. Mine is a Korean model from SK telecom which I purchased in June or July.

  • I bought a note FE yesterday and it has a logo of samsung in front below the earpiece. Why does it has the logo while others saying shouldn’t have logo in front?

  • I assume locked one

  • I've Tested it in Antutu, Geekbench. Cpu-z. The Processor checks out. The Score of Antutu checks out. So does Geekbench. The iris scanner checks out. So does the camera at the back. Even the S pen. It does say 3200 mah. It is a Note FE. I bought it from a Samsung Store and not a retailer. Android 7.0 With Samsung Experience version 8.1. I'm ok with the logo. I mean it is still a Note.

  • you can find the info on SamMobile website. and i think people who has N935F/DS will have samsung logo on the front. it's for SEA region.

  • Where did you get that info from? Interesting to see the Note FE in the list.

  • You’re sure you bought a Note FE and not a Note7? The FE has no logo on the front, unlike the Note7. What version of android is it running?

  • Hey, i have a concern. I just bought a Note FE a few days ago. Why does all the pictures not show a samsung logo below the front speaker up top. Mine has a logo below the speaker uptop. Is that normal?

  • mine does. does it hold any significance? im curious now.

  • Does it come with a Samsung branding in the front, upper part (near the earpiece)? Thanks

  • Here we are! These Galaxys will get Android 8.0 Oreo: Galaxy S8 Galaxy S8+ Galaxy S8 Active Galaxy Note 8 Galaxy Note FE Galaxy S7 Galaxy S7 edge Galaxy S7 Active Galaxy A7 (2017) Galaxy A5 (2017) Galaxy A3 (2017) Galaxy J7 (2017)/Pro Galaxy J5 (2017)/Pro Galaxy J7 Max Galaxy C9 Pro Galaxy C7 Pro Galaxy Tab S3

  • It has officially been announced 2 or 3 weeks ago: s7, s7 edge and galaxy note fe will get oreo for sure.

  • It is one of the best smart phone in 2017. I advise to everyone . Superior camera. Great . And a little bit different from galaxy note 8.

  • hi, is this a unlocked device or a locked one?

  • Buy it or in the future you might say "why i didn't buy this Note FE'' and feel sad because it's such a good device!

  • Probably Oreo will never be available for Note 7SE as this is still a 2016 phone, even the upcoming A8+ will still be running on Nougat, other model like S7 & S7edge which launch at same year as Note 7 too never gets Oreo. Samsung is merely clearing old Note 7 stock, once the leftovers clear out, there will forget about Note 7FE totally

  • I think, it was re-branded / refurbished from Samsung galaxy note 7. When you compare to galaxy note 7 processor, camera it's same. Then the other comparison it's just bit lower then predecessor (Samsung note 7). In all result don't buy it or in the future you maybe say "Why i buy this Note SE and Sad".

  • Me too i find it a bit slow compared to my s7 edge, specially when scrolling back up, sometimes it feels like my fingers is not being reconized by the screen. But is it not a defect?

  • Galaxy a8+ (2018) will be about 515 usd

  • Supper

  • Is this phone really fragile or easy crack screen?

  • I received am update of around 280mb. I installed the update and now it's on December security patch.

  • update on my FE 1. Great battery life, i work 8am-5pm office job and there is still 40%+ battery left after work. use it mainly to read emails, sign online documents, voice & video calls,chats and sometimes listening to music. And also the occasional browsing and youtube when i'm free. (Optimised Performance Mode) 2. Powerful Performance i set it to FHD and High Performance Mode and scored a whooping 141,374 Antutu score lags/stutters disappeared when i use HPM battery drains faster during HPM but not so much that it will be noticeable. (antutu ranking for FE was 139k) 3. Annoying headset i hate the earbuds, so hard to get them to properly sit on your ears.

  • For Note series real fans, this is the best Note ever after Note4. Note8 was designed for ladies and homos, I wouldn't touch that abomination

  • I wonder when the update to oreo is coming for this phone.

  • Been using this phone for over a week now. And ever single day it proves to be fantastic - display, performance, battery life. No regrets in buying this phone instead of Note 8 (got to save and at the same time enjoy the features of the S Pen). I just think it could have been better if all color options were made available here in Philippines since I liked Titanium Silver better than Blue Coral.

  • Don't expect bixby voice or bixby vision. it doesn't come with note fe.

  • I havent tweak/disable anything and so far i got around 5 - 6 hours of screen on time. Some people say they can get 7 hrs+ SoT. (Built-in battery saver etc)

  • That price for a A series phone will be too expensive, better buy this Note FE.

  • Hey Anon12345, What about the battery?

  • A German website expects the cost of the new Galaxy A8+ to be about 600 euros.

  • I bought it 490 EUR in Bangkok, but now Samsung Thailand propose to trade in your old handset for up to 265 EUR. It means you can buy the Galaxy Note FE at only 285 EUR.

  • Bought mine for USD $562 from Samsung Store yesterday. Hands down the best android phone i can get for the price. Besides the usual stuff in the box, it comes with flip cover and full screen tampered glass screen protector (covers all the way to the side edge).

  • Where did you buy it?

  • The price dropped further to RM 1990 at Qo10 Shall hold my horses till CNY hopefully can get it at RM 1800

  • samsung again has made people foolish... this model recovered from all things of fire catching previous note 7...just battery changed and named as note fe...

  • It's cheap and it's good, I just love this phone!

  • Sorry november

  • I buy this phone on september.this phone great.can use 2facebook,2what app,2skype in same time.camera nice,no lagging cheap prize.i love this phone.

  • Already buy it this morning,waiting for arriving on next monday 😄

  • Refurbish from the Note 7. What is the demand for? Yes FANS.

  • Try on Lazada, Note FE with only RM2079

  • Definitely a good price when new and unlocked.

  • whats the name of shop in the shopee?

  • I saw it at 490 EUR, I think it's a good price!

  • Try Shopee..cheap + free delivery.only RM2,079.00

  • I looked on eBay the other day and saw prices of 880 dollar for this Note FE, that is much more than when I bought it right after it was launched in Korea! It looks as the prices for this phone are increasing over the time, absurd.

  • I have the Note FE and the Note8 and trust me, when you have a phone with a fingerprint scanner on the front, it's so much easier...

  • For half price maybe i will consider, But with 850 US ill just pass this time

  • I like this design 16:9 with Finger Sensor on Front.

  • Every update battery only gets worse on iOS trust me!

  • Still Note 7 and you can be kicked out of the plane :)

  • Can u share the link here?

  • Yes, it is. USB type C OTG connector is include in the box 😊

  • Battery life is superb!

  • Good phone performance is good. I don’t experience any speed differences on daily use with the Note FE and the Note8.

  • Is it support usb otg??

  • Battery life review please gsmarena

  • I got mine for rm2130 at lazada

  • me in malaysia,bought 2 unit ...good.

  • Bought it a week ago, so far its been great. Battery life is good. No complains here.

  • Get the new iPhone X, and then you'll see if the battery is any better!!

  • This isnt refurbished. Its more about reincarnation. You see there is difference

  • the fe feels more like fire extinguished rather than final edition

  • yes. I've been to Manila from Indonesia with this device :)

  • dontr buy this mobile battery is draining like ice cubes... please only buy j7 max other samsung mobiles are refurbished...... save that money ...its my kind request ... samsung j7 maxis the best ever...

  • Intensive Internet (10 hours/day) ----> Battery lasts 1 day and a half.

  • hi are you using? ultra battery saver or this one day and half battery is jaz for texting and call but if you use continous wifi then drain battery in my experience why it is :) after fully charge @ morning then my battery 12noon will juz b 70 %

  • Awesome. I like this phone.

  • It's Note 7 with Nougat n different battery

  • Is just the Note 7 but without the exploding battery.

  • Hello GSMArena can you do a review for Samsung Galaxy Note FE, thanks in advance.

  • how long does it last? Did you buy on Global or Erafone? Any other problem? Like heating up, bad camera, lagging, or so on?

  • This phone has a good battey life: 1 day and a half

  • I love my phone FE but i hate the battery

  • I’m hard headed when it comes to a european launch, I don’t think it will happen. But you can buy one from eBay anytime.

  • Lol, why would Samsung price a phone around $600 if it's "refurbished"? Samsung has been known to produce cutting edge technologies nowadays and i bet Samsung wouldn't be that stupid to do such a thing after the Note 7 fiasco....the best possible thing about the Note FE is that most of its materials and components( if not all ) came from those units that were about to be sold ( from the warehouse, stores, etc..) or units still in the process of completion. After all, when you're with Samsung...what you pay is what you get.....( sorry for my horrific english>_< )

  • I want to buy this phone. will be release in europe or to buy from ebay?

  • Bro! That's not refurbished . You can see the difference .

  • I bought Samsung Note FE just this Month and its freaking awesome . Its just. appearance is like Samsung Note 7 and performance of Samsung Note 8 . But I'm still thinking of changing the phone or keeping it hehe lol

  • Yes

  • I feel it makes more sense to own one than the Note 8 because the Note 8 is too long.

  • I see no reason why not, the ban is ultimately only for the Note7 and not for the Note FE.

  • do they allow note fan edition in aircraft & airports ?!

  • Does this note fe support direct video calling?

  • I love dis phone!..

  • DID this phone launch in UAE

  • Bought 2 weeks ago. I really love my Note FE...

  • how to adjust scroll down or scroll up speed? i find its slower scrool speed than my 4 years old note 3

  • Compared to S8 (10:05h), S8+ (12:16h) and Note 8 (10:20h), this Galaxy Note FE has the best battery life (13:08h).

  • thats because of the screen.. samsung has amoled technology. amoled consume more energy. sorry for my bad english. I hope U understand it.

  • noice

  • Compared to S8 (10:05h), S8+ (12:16h) and Note 8 (10:20h), this Galaxy Note FE has the best battery life (13:08h).

  • I wonder why small manufacturer like Xiaomi doesn't have battery issue but giant like Samsung is struggling with petty issue of battery. Nearly bought one till i see many complained on short battery life.

  • Great leftover phone still! Hahaha.. It is alrrady release in Indonesia. And I own one already So far the problem still with the battery when it ia draining fast. Great phone with great specs but unfortunately 3200 mah is not enough to support its performance :( But still, I love this phone &#128537;

  • How's the battery life?

  • Samsung already indicate is using unused stock from Note 7 previously, except the battery, not those returned unit, so technically is not a refurbished phone, but leftovers stock...lol

  • Yes man and thousdants of people who were bought Note 7 was also happy with their phone right? Thats also a bias? Its only shows that samsung is failuer and soon or later more products will come.

  • i thing this note 7 refurbish.. compare with fe u can see.. different only battery. ..

  • Disagree with you. My Note 4 is working fine too. You are bias.

  • There isn't an official international version, I doubt it will every come. As I think it will be only released in certain Asian countries. Now only South Korea, Philippines and Malaysia so far.

  • international Note Fe version is still not available in Ebay to buy. Why is that? there is one seller. but i think it is a fraudster as he has zero feedback.

  • I think the G6 or G6+ is better at this price range.

  • Huawei Mate 10. at same price range ia more worthy.

  • You can't get this price range at 2017 and future with this technology ..totaly worthy

  • Paying such a price for a 2016 technology is quite difficult decision, lacking 18:9 ratio screen, dual lense camera, difficult to get accessories since it's only available in limited markets.

  • You paying too much, You can get it for RM 2299 or $534 from online shop after voucher discount,

  • I jst buy this phobe and its very perfect for my budger... As long as good phone... Love this note fe...

  • GSMArena can you do a battery test on Note FE, please.

  • Just upgraded my Note 5 to FE yesterday. Great phone so far. Just that I would've preferred a dual SIM card slot and a exclusive memory card slot rather than it being a Hybrid. Bought it for USD595 in Malaysia. It's about USD650 in Singapore.

  • Buy from Malaysia...

  • Can we use kwyboard cover for this like note 7?

  • Please order from amazon or ebay

  • Hy dear..i want note fe please any one help me.am living frome saudi arabia..so not avaible in saudi arabia...please help me.how can buy

  • Yes Hybrid Dual Sim

  • Is this dual SIM version?

  • The galaxy note fe is a flagship phone. Flagship phone will always get at least 2 major updates. Same for the s8 which is still running android 7.0.

  • Too expensive for its price not even worth.

  • This is best but it can be perfect by using dual cam.

  • Many nice story but you are one from billion who were lucky to get a working phone. Samsung would be great company if it specializes only on one product. But because Samsung preffers quantity over quality as always and do a billion of products they quality in some cases is worse than unknown chinese brands. For real.

  • Holy price...! Refurbished and... 650 OyrO.....!???? Get 8 by saint hmd

  • Today on sale in Indonesia IDR8.499.000 (USD630). I think i will get one.

  • fail edition lol

  • How do you know? My Note FE is still on 7.0 nougat. It didn't even get the 7.1 update yet.

  • Why the GSMArena Site put this mobile on the left side of the main page as the most recent phone produced !!!! While it has been released on July 2017

  • True. Note series are the best.

  • This phone will get android O and android P.

  • It's a 2016 refurbished phone, so don't expect much, usually Samsung will not update after 2 years, this is merely stock clearance Fire Sales, don't think Samsung will produce in big batch as there are more focus on Note 8.

  • Does anyone know if the Note FE will get Oreo and how many more updates it will get?

  • Samsung Note Series phones are one of the best phones I have used. Still after 4 years not a single time I have visited service centre. I am a heavy n rough user. I play games that have high graphics. After being sliped from my hand so many times even on the busy streets the phone is working fine. So there are some peoole who are sprearing negativty about Samsung. But Samsung phones soecially Note Series and S series are more efficient and realible phones out there.

  • How can I get Note FE in India ?? Can anyone help ??

  • I am interested in buying the Note FE. Not sure what site to use. Could someone please post the site so I can order one. Thank you

  • Maybe mate 10 pro

  • R u sure mate 10 rm2699?...i tot it goin rm3k above

  • But note fe get more feature.. Ip 68 rating... S pen... QHD SuperAmoled.. And there is so many service centre in malaysia

  • Where is the site to purchase from Korea From US ?

  • If it is selling RM 2599.00, i will add 100.00 to get mate 10. RM 2000.00 looks more reasonable.

  • i love it FE

  • In my country they sold 616 us dollar

  • The absurdity of FE sellers: Price in October 2017 Note FE - 750 to 800 dollars for a good looking phone but with hardware from 2016 when with 830 dollars you can buy a new Note 8, a better looking & more powerful phone, better specs & screen. In South K. they sold all the stocks, you gotta love the Stupidity of people... and this coming from a hardcore Note fan (had all of them except N7). I understand the Note fans, i'm one of them (5.7 inch display with 16:9 ratio), but come oooonn... 800 bucks for a 1 year old phone guys? Gotta show respect to Samsung management, they are making big money with this new old phone... If it was like 400 bucks, honestly i would rock one of this blue coral FE ...

  • I think this phone will become available in other Asian markets as well, perhaps markets like Philippines and Thailand, not outside that region probably.

  • Kenyan availability wen guys? n price.

  • That is mark up price by others. Officially selling for RM (MYR) 2599 only. Half of what you said.

  • Note FE is officially announced to launch in Malaysia. Going to be launched on 25 Oct 2017.

  • Samsung Note 7 FE when will be available in India ? anybody known ? please share expected date .

  • I purchased my Note FE from eBay right after it was launched.

  • Yesterday I installed a new (small update for the note FE again, I think some bug fixes.

  • Do you maybe have an internet site where you can purchase Note7 from Korea?

  • IMO, This device look is better than any other.

  • I am very said thise device is singal sim only

  • Really like Note 7fe. Options & features almost same as Note 8. However it has a 16:9 aspect ration. Personally I despise the 18.5:9 aspect ration on S8, S8+ & Note 8. Note always full screen usable on some vids & pics. If u actuall multiply the width & height of S8+, Note 8 & Note 7fe the square inches r almost the same. Note 7fe has as much screen area as Note 8 & is more full screen usable. Also really like Upper & lower screen bezils, with finger print scanned on front instead of back like all 8 series. And with this Korean version u get Samsung's Octa core processor, which almost as fast as Qualcom's 835.

  • Buy one from Korea, delivery within 3 days from Korea to The Netherlands, simply amazing.

  • if you can make order for large quantity for Samsung Note7fe model, please contact us by e mail to [email protected] thanks MOQ: 50K

  • It's not mine as well.

  • How do you purchase Note FE in Malaysia? Can I know where do you get it?

  • Just saw on sammobile have firmware N935F for XME Malaysia with Android 7.0. What that?

  • I cant seem to buy it in Europe. i would like to have Note Fe as well.

  • l prefer FE note over 8 note.
