The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is perhaps one of the most highly anticipated smartphones from the Korean brand. The announcement of the smartphone, which is called nothing less than the «people’s flagship» or «lightweight» version of the Samsung Galaxy S21, has been postponed more than once. Initially it was expected that it will be presented in the spring, then the announcement was postponed to early summer, then we expected Samsung to show the new product in August at its traditional Galaxy Unpacked presentation, but this did not happen either. Then the media started talking about the fact that due to the shortage of chips, Samsung decided to completely cancel the announcement of the Galaxy S21 FE. However, now it turns out that the launch of the FE version of the Samsung Galaxy S21 has not been canceled, but simply postponed to next year.
Recently, we learned that the premiere of the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will take place as part of the annual global consumer electronics show CES 2022 in Las Vegas in early January. And now insiders have announced that the novelty will be released in a limited edition and in just a few countries. Korean media claim that the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will appear in only one market — in Europe. It will not be available in other regions such as the United States.
Also in a new report from sources, it is said that Samsung was indeed considering canceling the launch of the Galaxy S21 FE. However, the head of the mobile division of Samsung Roh Tae-moon insisted on the release of a new smartphone. For the sake of launching the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, the company even pushed back the announcement of the flagship Galaxy S22 series from January to February. The Samsung Galaxy S22 family is expected to debut at the official presentation on February 8, and will go on sale 10 days later, on February 18.
According to rumors, the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will be based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset or Samsung’s own Exynos 2100 processor. It will be equipped with a 6.4-inch Full HD + display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone will be released in two configurations: with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal memory and with 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. For autonomous work, a rechargeable battery with a capacity of 4380 mAh with a 25 W fast charging function will be responsible. The cost of the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, according to insiders, will be less than $ 600.
