An independent teardown rates the new Fan Edition 9/10 for repairability, citing a larger vapor chamber alongside easier component swaps.

Overview

  • PBKReviews’ video shows a bigger vapor chamber running under the battery and motherboard to improve heat dissipation.
  • Miscellaneous parts such as the USB‑C charging port are easier to replace, and the back, speaker, battery, mainboard, and display come apart with less effort.
  • The Galaxy S25 FE earns a 9/10 repairability score, up from 8.5/10 for last year’s Galaxy S24 FE.
  • Key specs include the Exynos 2400 chip, a 6.7‑inch 120Hz Dynamic AMOLED 2X display rated at 1,900 nits, a 4,900mAh battery with 45W wired charging, IP68 durability, and Gorilla Glass Victus+ with an Enhanced Armor Aluminum frame.
  • The phone ships with Android 16 and a seven‑year update promise; U.S. pricing starts at $649, while a reported ₹59,999 India price remains unconfirmed.
