The first confirmations have surfaced that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip FE smartphone and the Galaxy Watch8 Classic are in development
For some time now, there have been rumours that Samsung is developing a new foldable Galaxy Z Flip FE smartphone. And now the first real confirmation of this has appeared.
Here's What We Know
The Galaxy Z Flip FE has appeared in the GSMA database with the model number SM-F761B and the marketing name "Galaxy Z Flip XE". It is likely that the XE designation is erroneous and it will be renamed to FE, which stands for "Fan Edition". This model will be a more affordable addition to Samsung's popular Flip line of foldable devices. The inclusion of FE branding for the first time for Samsung's foldable phones signals the company's intention to expand the foldable technology to more users. The Galaxy Z Flip FE is rumoured to be powered by an Exynos 2400 chipset, which will help bring down the price of the device and make it affordable to a wider audience.

There is also a mention of the Galaxy Watch8 Classic smart watch in the GSMA database, which has the model number SM-L505U. This smart watch will combine classic design with modern smart watch features. After missing the "Classic" model in the Galaxy Watch7 series, Samsung's decision to revive it with the Galaxy Watch8 Classic shows that there is a demand for the classic model and the company has no plans to abandon it.
