The Galaxy S23 FE could be launched soon, and even Samsung confirmed just after the Galaxy Unpacked event that an FE model exists. We had exclusively reported earlier that the Galaxy S23 FE would be launched in Q4 of this year in most countries. Now, it looks like the phone is almost ready for launch, as the device has received clearance for its launch in India.

The Galaxy S23 FE with model number SM-S711B/DS is now listed on the BIS (Bureau Of Indian Standards) website (via MySmartPrice). The listing means that Samsung has received the go-ahead from the Indian certification authorities to launch the Galaxy S23 FE in India. This model number appeared in Geekbench's database in the past, revealing that it is equipped with the Exynos 2200 processor, 8GB RAM, and Android 13. It confirms that the South Korean firm will launch the Exynos version of the Galaxy S23 FE in India.
