Upcoming smartphones October 2024

2024 has been a very interesting and exciting year for smartphones. Now that we’re nearing the end of the year, year-end launches tend to slow down. But an important event is about to happen. Qualcomm is going to hold an event and launch a new chipset. MediaTek, on the other hand, is set to launch the Dimensity 9400, followed by the 8th Gen 4. After that, flagship-level phones will be released.

Usually, these launches happen in November-December, but this year, they are expected in October-November. So, there are some very exciting launches ahead.

However, some launches will happen in China first, followed by other countries. I’m going to tell you about these and what phones you can expect in the next 1-1.5 months.

Upcoming Smartphones Under $750

1: Samsung Galaxy S24 FE

Samsung is about to launch a flagship-level phone. However, I wouldn’t call it a flagship; I’d refer to it as a premium mid-range device because it is a very popular fan version. I am talking about the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE. This will be announced at their Unpacked launch event on September 26. After that, it might launch in India in October.

While the Galaxy S24 FE has not been released yet, the Galaxy Tab S10 series is also set to launch alongside it. The S24 FE will feature an underclocked Exynos 2400 processor, a 55MP triple camera setup, 8GB of RAM, a 4500mAh battery, and 25W charging. So yes, we can expect to see the S24 FE soon.

The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE has an official price:

8GB RAM + 128GB: $649
The upgraded version with 256GB of storage is priced at $709.

The Vivo X200 Series is set to launch in China on October 14. It will feature the Dimensity 9400 chipset, which MediaTek is launching on October 8 and 9. Immediately after that, the X200 series will be introduced.

The phone will have a 55MP triple camera setup, and remember, cameras are the biggest highlight of X series phones. We’ll see what innovations they bring this time.

X series phones are always exciting when it comes to cameras. The X200 will also include a 5600mAh battery with 90W charging. It launches on October 14.

4: OnepPus 13 Series

Two more exciting phones are coming. The OnePlus 13 is set to be launched in China in the last week of October. It will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset, a 55MP triple camera setup, and 100W charging.

In 2025, smartphones will standardize battery capacities between 5500-6000mAh. While the form factor won’t increase, the battery capacity will. This is a promising trend to follow in 2025.

The OnePlus 13 is indeed launching in the last week of October.

The expected price for the OnePlus 13 is around $899.99 for the (12GB + 256GB) configuration.

5: Vivo iQOO 13 Series

The iQOO 13 will launch in China. The iQOO 12 was a fantastic value-for-money proposition, and the iQOO 13 is set to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 with a 6.78″ 2K LTPO 144Hz display. It will have a 6000mAh battery and support 120W charging.

The best part is that iQOO’s cameras have improved significantly. Vivo’s cameras have learned from iQOO’s phones, and their camera quality has also been enhanced. The iQOO 13 will launch in China first and then globally.

Vivo iQOO 13 Price:

(12GB + 256GB) = $639

Upcoming Smartphones Under $200/$300

6: Redmi Note 14 series

If I look at mid-range phones, the Redmi Note series has been the most popular in China over the last 8-10 years. The Redmi Note 14 series is about to be launched. It is set to launch later this month on September 26, and it may be available in the market around October-November.

Nonetheless, you will see the Redmi Note 14 series this year. When discussing the Redmi Note series, there are two focus areas: 1. Durability and IP rating. There is a significant emphasis on these topics. The Redmi Note series is set to launch with Gorilla Glass Victus 2, positioning it at a mid-range flagship level in terms of durability. The base variant will have an IP68 rating, while the top variant will feature an IP69 rating. It is rumored to be powered by the Snapdragon 7S Gen 3 and will include a large 5,500mAh battery with 90W charging.

I want to give you a disclaimer and a footnote: please don’t wait specifically for these phones. Currently, there are many good deals and excellent smartphones available, so you can take advantage of those.
