In June 2017, the Wall Street Journal reported on Samsung's plan to refurbish its inventory of recalled phones and release them with a new model designation of Galaxy Note FE, with the "FE" referencing "Fan Edition." The phone was also rumored to be named as the Note 7R, with the R referencing "refurbished". This phone was released on the 7th of July in South Korea, with limited availability in other countries to follow, and a price of $610; being a $255 discount from the price of the Note 7.

The Fan Edition has a smaller battery of 3200 mAh and multiple safety features. It has a "Fan Edition" logo on the back. The software is identical to that of the S8. It has a similar UI and includes Bixby home and reminders but not the whole Bixby assistant.[6][7] Samsung introduced an 8-Point battery check after the Note7 to make sure all of their batteries are safe for new and current devices in production. There have been no reported incidents of an S8/S8+ catching fire after their release as the first new flagship device to go through the 8-Point battery check. There have been no reported incidents of the successor Note8 catching fire either.[8][9]

After the Fan Edition has launched in South Korea, the Galaxy Note FE has also been launched in selected countries in Asia starting from October 2017. As of December 2017, there is no word on the Note FE being released to other countries.
