Apple introduced a new affordable phone iPhone 17e, which is the successor to last year's iPhone 16e and a direct competitor to the lightweight flagship Galaxy S25 FE. Which one is more affordable? Of course, a paper comparison of the specifications will tell us at least.
Design
iPhone 17e and Galaxy The S25 FE look very different at first glance. The front of the former is dominated by a display with a wide notch (without an element Dynamic Island) and relatively thick bezels, the back is decorated with only one camera. The Samsung representative's screen, on the other hand, has a circular cutout, much thinner bezels, and there are three cameras on the back. The backs of both phones are made of glass, in the case of Galaxy However, the S25 FE is more durable, as it is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus+ and both phones are surrounded by an aluminum frame.
Galaxy The S25 FE is also thinner when it comes to the waist 7,4 mm (vs. 7,8 mm). Compl.The dimensions are as follows:
Galaxy S25FE
- 161,3 x 76,6 x 7,4 mm
iPhone 17e
- 146,7 x 71,5 x 7,8 mm
The iPhone 17e, on the other hand, is significantly lighter – weighing only 169 g, which is 21g less than its rival. Let's add that both phones meet the IP68 rating, which means they can withstand immersion to a depth of up to 1,5m for 30 minutes (Apple however, it indicates a depth of up to 6 m).
Display
There are also big differences between the two smartphones in the display area. Here are their specifications:
iPhone 17e
- Diagonal: 6,1 inches
- Distinction: 1170 x 2532px
- Refresh rate: 60Hz
- Peak brightness: 1200 rivets
Galaxy S25FE
- Diagonal: 6,7 inches
- Distinction: 1080 x 2340px
- Refresh rate: 120Hz
- Peak brightness: 1900 rivets
Even though the screen Galaxy The S25 FE is better than the iPhone 17e in terms of parameters, representative Applu has a trump card up its sleeve in the form of an anti-reflective layer that reduces glare both indoors and outdoors. This feature is included in the portfolio Galaxy only newer models can boast this Galaxy S Ultra (specifically Galaxy S24 Ultra and newer).
Performance
iPhone 17 is powered by a chipset Apple A19 (the same is true in the iPhone 17, even though it has one more graphics core), which is paired with 8 GB of RAM and 256 or 512 GB of storage. Galaxy The S25 FE uses a chip Exynos 2400, which is supported by 8 GB of RAM and 128 or 256 GB of internal memory. Here the situation is clear – chipset Apple The A19 is much faster than the Exynos 2400, and not only in terms of proprocessor, but also graphics performance. In addition, it is also more energy efficient, as it is manufactured in 3nm proby the way (vs. 4nm proces).
Cameras
But in the field of camera, it has the upper hand again Galaxy S25 FE. Its specifications are as follows:
- Main camera: 50 MPx, lens aperture f/1.8
- Telephoto lens: 8 MPx, 3x optical zoom
- Ultrawide angle lens: 12 MPx
- Front camera: 12 MPx
As mentioned earlier, the iPhone only has one rear camera, which has a resolution of 48 MPx and lens aperture f / 1.6. The front camera then has the same resolution as the one on the Galaxy S25 FE.
The iPhone 17e's rear camera has better lens brightness than the main sensor Galaxy S25 FE, so it could take better quality pictures in poorer lighting. Apple also claims that the camera can captureat 12 MPx mode, you can take twice as many pictures without losing quality. However, the telephoto lens will not replace this, so the quality of such zoomed pictures will be will be oprothose acquired Galaxy S25 FE lower.
As for video recording, Galaxy The S25 supports recording in resolutions up to 8K at 30fps whether 4K at 120fps, while the iPhone 17e only handles 4K resolution at 60 fps. The front cameras of both phones are the same, supporting 4K/60 fps recording.
Batteries and charging
The iPhone 17e draws power from a battery with a capacity of 4005 mAh, which supports wired charging with power 20 W and wireless charging with power 15 W (MagSafe/Qi2). Galaxy S25 FE is aboutproequipped with a battery with a capacity of 4900 mAhwhich supports 45W wired and 15W wireless charging (Qi2). It lacks magnets.
Even though the iPhone 17e's battery is much smaller than that of the Galaxy S25 FE, it cannot be clearly said that the phone will last less than Galaxy S25 FE. Apple is on iPhones profamous for its software optimization, and the chip Apple The A19 is very energy efficient, so it could end up being a "scoop", according to Galaxy The S25 FE lasts about a day. Plus, the smaller display also requires less power.
Price
iPhone 17e will be launched in the Czech Republic proto give on March 11, from 16 990 CZK. Let us recall that Galaxy The S25 FE entered the Czech market last year with a price 17 990 CZK (varia8/128 GB). Comparable varianta, i.e. 8/256, however, cost less than 20 thousand CZK. Currently, Samsung progives from 18,790 CZK, for others proHowever, you can get it for several thousand cheaper.
So which one is worth it?
Pro me is the clear winner of this comparison Galaxy S25 FE. It has a subjectively nicer design, an overall better and larger screen (However, fans of compact phones may see it differently), more versatile photo setup and faster charging. The only major area where it falls behind the iPhone 17e is performance. However, if you don't Galaxy If you buy the S25 FE for playing graphically demanding games, you may not mind. So if you are deciding which lightweight flagship to buy, I can personally recommend it. Galaxy S25 FE.
