Deals: the Galaxy S24 FE price keeps falling, A35 and A55 come with a free Fit3

Last week, the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE was £585 for an 8/128GB model and £640 for an 8/256GB one. It did come with a free Galaxy Watch FE, which was nice, but wouldn’t you rather just have a lower price?

If you would, then have another look at Amazon’s offer – the prices for the 8/128GB and 8/256GB models have fallen to £550 and £600, respectively. No free watch this time, but there is an alternative offer for a bundle of S24 FE plus Galaxy Buds3 that comes out lower than the combined S24 FE + Buds3 price.

This week, it’s the Samsung Galaxy A55 and Galaxy A35 that come with a free timepiece – it’s just a Samsung Galaxy Fit3 smart band, but that is on top of the £100 discount for these phones, which makes it a pretty sweet deal if you’re aiming for a mid-range phone.

And this one isn’t for everyone, but you can also get a free Galaxy Fit3 if you buy the Galaxy XCover7. Do you need a rugged phone with a removable battery?

Let’s look at the Samsung Galaxy Fit3 itself, which goes for £40 right now (43% off MSRP). It has a 1.6” OLED display, supports fall detection and emergency SOS (so it’s a suitable gift for old folks) and promises to last up to 13 days on a charge. Note that it lacks a built-in GPS, so you need to bring your phone with you, if you want to track outdoor exercises like running or biking.

The Motorola Razr 50 Ultra flip foldable is down to £800. This buys you a 6.9” internal and 4” 165Hz external displays, a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, a 4,000mAh battery with 45W wired and 15W wireless charging and a 50+50MP camera that includes a 2x portrait lens.

Foldables are a cool form factor, but one that is limited in terms of cameras. For less money you can have the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra instead – this one has a 50MP main (1/1.3” sensor), 64MP 3x telephoto (72mm) and a 50MP ultra wide, plus a 50MP selfie. This Ultra also uses the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 rather than the “full fat” 8 Gen 3 and has a 6.7” 144Hz OLED display. The battery is larger and faster with 4,500mAh capacity and 125W/50W charging.

If the Ultra is too big for you, check out the Motorola Edge 50 Neo. It has a 6.4” display and is around the same size as the Pixel 9. It doesn’t quite have the camera prowess of the Ultra, but it does have a 50MP main (1/1.5”), 10MP 3x tele (73mm) and 13MP ultra wide. Be warned though, the camera was the biggest issue we had with this phone in our review. The 4,310mAh battery lasts a good while and is fast to top up with 68W wired charging and less so with the 15W wireless charging. The Dimensity 7300 is a bit weak for this class, but the discount makes this limitation easier to accept.

But if large screens aren’t an issue, check out the Honor 200 Pro. The screen in question is a 6.78” 120Hz OLED with a dual camera cutout – a 50MP selfie and a 2MP depth sensor. The phone’s curiously shaped camera island is home to a 50MP main (1/1.3”), a 50MP 2.5x telephoto and a 12MP ultra wide. The Silicon Carbon battery boasts a capacity of 5,200mAh and you get 100W wired and 66W wireless charging.

The Honor Magic V2 is a 2023 phone, though it only arrived in Europe in early 2024. It shows its age with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, but it has solid cameras – 50MP main, 20MP 2.5x tele (62mm) and 50MP ultra wide. And a large 5,000mAh battery with 66W wired-only charging.

For reference, the slender new Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition is thicker than the V2 (10.6mm vs. 9.9/10.1mm closed) while having a smaller battery (Samsung kept the 4,400mAh of the original Z Fold6). True, it does bring a new 200MP sensor in the main camera, but the telephoto is still a 10MP 3x module and the ultra wide a 12MP module. And this is only for people who can even buy the Special Edition, which is available only in South Korea for now. Meanwhile, the Magic V2 is here and can be yours for £1,000.
