Black Friday is still a couple of weeks away, but we’re already seeing some big discounts being offered on some great phones. One of the best early deals I’ve spotted is for the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE, which you can get right now for £499 (was £649) at Amazon – a record-low price.

The Galaxy FE series is a staple for Black Friday deals – the ‘Fan Edition’ lineup is Samsung’s take on making flagship tech more accessible, and the Galaxy S25 FE continues this trend by taking the standard Galaxy S25 and trimming down the specs to offer a lower price point. This deal knocks a solid £150 off the price of the phone, and is matched by fellow tech retailer Laptops Direct.

Today’s best Samsung Galaxy S25 FE Black Friday deal

True to its name, the Galaxy S25 FE takes everything that Samsung fans love – a triple-camera system, Galaxy AI, solid internals, and premium build quality – and cuts the price down to the upper-mid range. This discount pushes things even lower, towards conventional mid-range prices.

For reference, at this discounted price, the Galaxy S25 FE costs as much as the Google Pixel 9a, which is a solid phone in its own right but not one that keeps up with Samsung’s accessible flagship offering. In our own Future Labs tests, the Galaxy S25 scored about 55% better in multicore CPU performance and around 25% better in single-core CPU performance than its Google Pixel rival.

That’s not to mention the extra 8MP telephoto camera you get with the Galaxy S25 FE, which sits alongside a 50MP main sensor and 12MP ultra-wide camera. Though it’s not up to par with the flagship Galaxy S25 specs-wise, it’s a much more complete package than rivals like the mentioned Pixel 9a, and stands up to Apple’s iPhone 16e (which is much more performant internally but has less complete furnishings).

The Galaxy S25 FE also comes with a big and beautiful 6.7-inch FHD+ display that makes One UI 8 look fantastic. It’s got Samsung’s own Exynos 2400 chipset and 8GB of RAM inside, which is plenty for daily use, multitasking, and even gaming and AI. It also supports Samsung DeX, so you can plug into an external monitor and use the phone like a desktop computer. Be sure to check out our hands-on Samsung Galaxy S25 FE review for more details.
