It’s been a busy week forSamsung Galaxy Watch FEleaks, and the latest piece of unconfirmed information to surface online is perhaps the most important of all: how much this cut-price wearable is actually going to cost.
According to seasoned tipster@MysteryLupin, the price of the Galaxy Watch FE is €199 in the eurozone. However, there’s also a liveretail listingin Italy putting the price at €219. Those prices convert to about $238 / £169 / AU$325 and $216 / £186 / AU$358 respectively.
Samsungwon’t use a direct currency conversion though. It’s perhaps more helpful to note that the Samsung France website currently sells theGalaxy Watch 6from €299 and up, and theGalaxy Watch 4(that the Galaxy Watch FE is apparently based on) for €179.
In other words, the rebranded Galaxy Watch 4 is apparently going to cost a little more than the current Galaxy Watch 4 (internationally the watch costs $199 / £199 / AU$399). Based on previous rumors, it looks as though the internal specs are going to belargely the samein the 2024 edition.
Early arrival?

The same source has also listeda full rundown of the specsof the Galaxy Watch FE, for your reference. One difference we have spotted from the Galaxy Watch 4 is a slightly smaller screen – 1.2 inches rather than 1.4 inches.
What’s also interesting is the appearance ofa special offer in France: certain phone networks are throwing in a free Galaxy Watch FE with purchases of aSamsung Galaxy S24phone between now and the end of June.
That suggests the wearable is going to go on sale before the next Samsung Unpacked, rumored to behappening on July 10. Considering Samsung also has theGalaxy Watch 7, theGalaxy Ring, theGalaxy Buds 3, theGalaxy Z Fold 6, and theGalaxy Z Flip 6to show off at that event, it’s perhaps understandable that it would launch at least one gadget early.

With that in mind, and the various leaks we’ve seen in the last few days, Samsung could well announce the arrival of the Galaxy Watch FE in the very near future – at a price substantially lower than its flagship smartwatches.
