TL; DR
  • Galaxy S25 FE already in the wild thanks to Twitter user Firas.
  • He’s shared full specs, photos, benchmarks, and even camera samples ahead of the launch.
  • Samsung is officially launching the phone tomorrow, on September 4th.

Samsung’s Galaxy S25 FE isn’t even official yet, but somehow, Twitter user Firas has already got his hands on one. And he’s not just holding it quietly. He’s gone all-in, posting photos of the box, the phone itself, camera samples, and even benchmarks. Basically, Firas just did Samsung’s Unpacked before Samsung could.

The phone was apparently picked up from a local store, and from the photos you can see a few odd details. The bezels on the S25 FE aren’t even for some reason, and unlike the rest of the S25 series, this one doesn’t have the new camera rings. The box, though, looks pretty standard for the series.

The S25 FE is running on the Exynos 2400 with a 4,755 mAh battery (possibly the typical capacity), a 2340 x 1080 display (so FHD+ at 120 Hz), and an optical fingerprint scanner. Out of the box, it’s loaded with One UI 8 and all the Galaxy AI features, though strangely with an older May security patch.

Firas went ahead and shared the benchmarks too. Geekbench 6 scores came in at 2016 for single-core and 6570 for multi-core, with the GPU OpenCL hitting 12,597.

And yes, he also posted camera samples, though they don’t look particularly great.

Still, it’s wild to see someone casually sharing photos from an unreleased Galaxy phone on Twitter a whole day before launch. The official Galaxy event kicks off tomorrow, September 4th, where they’ll announce the S25 FE and the Tab S11 series.
