    Galaxy S23 FE release schedule is a little unclear right now

    Samsung has launched a number of new devices today, almost as many as it did back in August when it unveiled new flagship foldables, tablets, and the latest Galaxy Buds earbuds. Today's launch is all about Fan Edition variants of existing Samsung devices: the Galaxy S23 FE, the Galaxy Tab S9 FE and Galaxy Tab S9 FE+, and Galaxy Buds FE are now official and will go on sale starting this week.

    However, Samsung doesn't seem to be too excited about these products. The company barely sent out any details to the press, or at least not as much as it usually, and that includes a proper release date for various regions.

    Samsung says sales of the Galaxy S23 FE starts from tomorrow, October 5, in some markets and will be launched in other countries over the course of the month. But it's unclear exactly which country is getting the phone tomorrow.

    Story continues after the video

    In the US, which is always considered among the top markets for Samsung, the Galaxy S23 FE will be available from October 26, almost a month after its announcement. And, well, Samsung's US website seems to be the only one where the company has listed the phone.

    We didn't see it on Samsung's website in Korea, other major Asian countries, or any of the big markets in Europe, so, again, it's unclear who the October 5 release date is for. We are told it will be available in Australia from October 12, even though Samsung Australia hasn't listed it yet, so for now we can only assume that the Galaxy S23 FE will go on sale globally on random dates throughout this month.

    We'll be on the lookout for more Galaxy S23 FE release information, but in the meantime, you should visit Samsung.com to find out the phone's exact release date for your country. The phone may not be listed right on the homepage, in which case you should check out the dedicated smartphones page that can be accessed through the Mobile dropdown menu at the top of the website.
