baccarat 540 scent The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is currently selling for $450 (retails at $649), with 128GB of storage and AI features included. Large 6.7-inch AMOLED display and an enduring 4,700mAh battery are the top two strengths. At its price, the S24 FE faces stiff competition from Google, OnePlus, and Samsung itself. As part of a new post-Cyber Monday deal, both versions of the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE are selling for $100 off on Best Buy . The 128GB SSD model is retailing for $550 while the 256GB SSD version costs $610. However, it is possible to save even more money. Samsung is offering up to $400 instant trade-in credit for the Galaxy S24 FE on its digital storefront. With the fall season in full swing, I've recently been catching up with more friends and family. It's during these times when I'm most in touch with "the average consumer," able to gauge interest in new features, understand which ones matter most to people, and know just how much money users are willing to spend on a new handset, headphones, laptop, etc. I also do this thing where I pass the latest phone I'm testing around the room and ask people to guess its price. With the new Samsung Galaxy S24 FE , the ballpark value was around $1,000 -- about $350 more than its actual cost. Nice. Also: The best Cyber Monday deals still live At a starting price of $649 (currently discounted to $450), the Galaxy S24 FE is not as premium as Samsung's Galaxy S24 Ultra or as budget-friendly as the brand's Galaxy A35 5G . So, who should buy the Galaxy S24 FE -- and why? I've been asking myself those questions throughout my weeks of testing, and the answer, it turns out, is a little more obvious than expected. Samsung Galaxy S24 FE The company's latest Android phone features a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, a 120Hz refresh rate, a 50MP main camera, and Galaxy AI features. To Samsung's credit, the S24 FE has a large, vibrant, and sharp-looking display that gives off a very strong first impression. The Dynamic AMOLED panel measures 6.7 inches and supports Samsung's Vision Booster feature, allowing it to peak at 1,900 nits of brightness. The result is a handset that's refreshingly easy to see (and use) when you're out in the sun. Also: The 25+ best Cyber Monday Samsung deals 2024: Sales available now I'm less enthusiastic about the thick bezels and rather uninspiring industrial design, though most of the people I showed the phone to didn't mind that it looks eerily similar to the more expensive Galaxy S24 Plus . I just wish Samsung had made the edges of the S24 FE curve into the back cover a little less and used lighter materials. At 212 grams, the phone's heftiness makes it feel like a slippery sandwich of frosted metal and glass. A protective case is basically mandatory. Fortunately, the rest of the S24 FE's drawbacks -- the infrequent stutter, lack of a far-distance telephoto lens, and less durable glass build than flagships -- are easier to overlook. While the phone is powered by Samsung's in-house Exynos 2400 -- and not a more tested Qualcomm Snapdragon chip -- the processor has proven capable of daily use. We're in the thick of sports season, so I often play YouTube TV in picture-in-picture mode while on social feeds and Reddit to keep up with commentary. This intermixing and swift navigation between apps typically gives me a sense of how well a phone handles multitasking and managing background tasks. Besides a few hiccups, where Threads took a few seconds to load videos, the S24 FE performed gracefully. What impressed me the most was how consistently the 120Hz refresh rate stayed on. Also: Forget iPhone 16: Samsung's $649 Galaxy S24 FE may be the new mainstream phone to beat While more manufacturers are aggressively dialing down the refresh rate to preserve battery life (and stabilize performance), the S24 FE remains at 120Hz for most tasks, including scrolling through media-filled webpages. After all of that, I'm still finishing most of my days with roughly 30% battery left, which is better than most phones I've tested, let alone mid-range ones . Now, if only Samsung can speed up the wired charging rate from 25W to at least 45W. That's a story for another day. The S24 FE supports Samsung's latest Galaxy AI features, including Sketch to Image, which generates visuals based on what you draw. At its $649 price point, the S24 FE is one of the most affordable phones that supports Samsung's suite of Galaxy AI features . These include Sketch to Image, Circle to Search, note summaries, and an improved Bixby. While I haven't found an urge to use the AI tools -- they're mostly gimmicky and still inconsistent in output -- the ability to run them on-device gives the S24 FE added utility that you'll either ignore or greatly appreciate. There's no downside here. Also: The camera I recommend to most new photographers is not a Sony or Panasonic (and it's $200 off) Lastly, I've been satisfied with the 50MP-led camera system of the S24 FE. Coming from the Google Pixel 9 series , I expected the S24 FE camera to dial up the saturation and sharpening of photos and videos, but that wasn't the case. Instead, subjects often came out natural-looking, with just enough dynamic range to portray the varying weather conditions in October. Samsung tries to compensate for its telephoto lens with a mere 2x optical zoom by filling in lost details via software, and this generally works for images captured as far as the 10x range. Anything further basically leaves you with a water-painting-like output. ZDNET's buying advice That's all to say: I recommend the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE to anyone who wants a competent, big-screen handset that won't break the bank. In lieu of ergonomics and flashier features, the S24 FE nails the essentials, from day-to-day performance to battery life to camera output. While AI shouldn't be the main reason you buy the S24 FE, the phone is slated to receive seven years of Android OS upgrades, so you can expect more useful software tools to come as companies like Samsung better understand the market and customer needs. With the holiday shopping season just weeks away, I'd also advise checking major retailers and your preferred carrier to see what discounts, trade-in offers, and other incentives are available. At the time of writing, the phone has already been discounted down to $450 , putting it in impulse-buying territory for those looking for a worthy Android upgrade. One of the best QLED TVs I've tested isn't made by Samsung or Hisense (and it's $500 off) I finally found a wireless Android Auto adapter that's reliable, functional, and affordable This is the most bizarre portable power station I've tested - and it actually works One of the best cheap soundbars I've tested performs as well as models twice its price

Stormont minister Maurice Morrow told an official he would not raise the issue with the Northern Ireland Executive, despite similar measures being considered in England and Wales. A file on planning arrangements for the jubilee celebrations reveals a series of civil service correspondences on how Northern Ireland would mark the occasion. It includes a letter sent on January 11 2001 from an official in the Office of the First Minister/Deputy First Minister (OFMDFM) to the Department of Social Development, advising that a committee had been set up in London to consider a programme of celebrations. The correspondence says: “One of the issues the committee is currently considering is the possibility of deregulating liquor licensing laws during the golden jubilee celebrations on the same lines as the arrangements made for the millennium. “It is felt that the golden jubilee bank holiday on Monday 3 June 2002 is likely to be an occasion on which many public houses and similar licensed premises would wish to stay open beyond normal closing time.” The letter said a paper had been prepared on the issue of extending opening hours. It adds: “You will note that paragraph seven of the paper indicates that the devolved administrations ‘would need to consider deregulation separately within their own jurisdictions’. “I thought that you would wish to be aware that this issue is receiving active consideration for England and Wales and to consider whether anything needs to be done for Northern Ireland.” Some months later a “progress report” was sent between officials in OFMDFM, which again raised the issue of licensing laws. It says: “I spoke to Gordon Gibson, DSD, about Terry Smith’s letter of 12 January 2001 about licensing laws: the matter was put to their minister Maurice Morrow (DUP) who indicated that he would not be asking the NIE (Northern Ireland Executive) to approve any change to current licensing laws in NI to allow for either 24 hour opening (as at the millennium) nor a blanket approval for extended opening hours as is being considered in GB. “In both cases, primary legislation would be required here and would necessitate consultation and the minister has ruled out any consultation process.” The correspondence says individual licensees could still apply for an extension to opening hours on an ad hoc basis, adding “there the matter rests”. It goes on: “DSD await further pronouncements from the Home Office and Gibson and I have agreed to notify each other of any developments we become aware of and he will copy me to any (existing) relevant papers. “Ministers may well come under pressure in due course for a relaxation and/or parity with GB.” The document concludes “That’s it so far...making haste slowly?” Emails sent between officials in the department the same month said that lord lieutenants in Northern Ireland had been approached about local events to mark the jubilee. One message says: “Lord lieutenants have not shown any enthusiasm for encouraging GJ celebrations at a local level. “Lady Carswell in particular believes that it would be difficult for LLs to encourage such activities without appearing political.”Graphjet technology director sells shares worth $281,460Shrimpers youngsters see off Slough Town with quickfire double
