    Well that’s disappointing. It has the processor from the S22; that’s almost two years old. Seems like a downgrade from previous FE phones.

      This focus on speed in processors and phones, I think, is silly. They need to have good speed and great build. Having the absolute-latest tech, I just don’t see it as essential.

        I strongly disagree with this argument. Yes, you don’t need the absolute latest stuff, but selling stuff that’s 3 years out of date, in this field specifically, is a scam. Whether you want it or not, the tech behind your apps moves on, and buying something old today moves you that much closer to inevitable deprication of your device

        I mean, sure, but that’s what the FE series has usually been. The current flagship processor with some strategic corners cut to give you a better price.

        I’m sure this is going to be a fine phone, but it doesn’t feel like an FE. Why not just buy a Galaxy S22?
