Samsung Galaxy S24 FE runs Geekbench with Exynos 2400
The timing for the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE unveiling is still up in the air, but it might make it in time for a summer launch. The phone was just spotted running Geekbench, which comes a few weeks after the first One UI test build was reported.
The S24 FE that was tested was the international version as it is powered by the Exynos 2400. This chip is easy to tell apart from the rest – there aren’t a lot of 10-core CPUs these days (or ever). But the clock speed of the Cortex-X4 prime core is a bit lower than expected.
Normally, the X4 runs at 3.2GHz, here it is listed as 3.1GHz. The two Cortex-A720 clusters (2x @ 2.9GHz + 3x @ 2.6GHz) and the Cortex-A520 cluster (4x @ 2.0GHz) are as expected.

We wouldn’t rush to conclusions just yet – this might be the phone running in Light Performance Mode. Samsung never did specify how much the clock speed is reduced in this mode.
Anyway, one thing that hasn’t changed is the amount of RAM – still 8GB. This year buyers may be given an option to go for 12GB, however. At least this is what leaked info from British carrier EE suggests. This might be tied to the storage capacity – 128GB (UFS 3.1) or 256GB (UFS 4.0).
Some reports claim that Samsung will launch the Galaxy S24 FE in late 2024. But if the device is already running benchmarks, it might be close to being finished, so there is hope for a summer release.
