S25 fe feels like a more premium phone due to lighter weight and less diameter, it's a rebrand of S24+ basically.

They downgraded the selfie camera and increased the battery size. 25 fe is just a rebranded 24fe.

I have an S24 FE and it's still a good phone. I think the biggest upgrades on the S25 FE are just the matte back glass, faster charging, and higher screen-to-body ratio.
