Samsung Galaxy S21 FE could be another of the announcements of the great event Unpacked that the South Korean firm will celebrate in August to present its new folding smartphones and enliven a summer that is standing out for the lack of novelties. It is common in the technology industry and we will not recover the activity until the ‘back to school’ of September.
The model at hand would be the economic variant of the brand’s flagship, the Galaxy S21. The ‘FE’ treatment was released (to great sales success) with the S20s and described by Samsung as ‘Fan Edition’. The idea is the same: offer a high-end terminal at a reduced price.

Rumored for months, the terminal has come to the fore again when last week it was spotted on the website of the Chinese regulator TENAA (a previous step of certification of devices before its launch) at the time that new images were Posted by the leaker Evan Blass.
According to the information, we would meet a carbon copy of the S21 in terms of design, with a screen with reduced frames only interrupted by a small perforated front camera in the upper central part of it, and a smooth rear part on which the vertical camera module located in the upper left corner stands out. It is unknown if the firm would use the aluminum frame or bet on polycarbonate to reduce costs.
Samsung would maintain the high quality on the screen with a 6.4 inch OLED panel and a resolution of 2,340 x 1,080 pixels. The storage capacity would remain at 128 GB (higher variant with 256 GB), but the RAM memory will be reduced to 6 GB in its base configuration (the higher version would have 8 GB). As for its engine, the commitment to its own SoC is imposed Exynos 2100.
The performance of the rear camera would be located halfway between those installed in the S20 FE and the spectacular ones of the S21, with a triple sensor, 32 MP main, a 12 MP wide angle and an 8 MP telephoto lens. It would have the in-display fingerprint sensor and support 45W fast charging to power a 4,500 mAH battery. Of course, there will be no lack of advanced connectivity with 5G and Wi-Fi 6.
Regarding prices, we take for granted a substantial reduction on the price of the launch of the S21, between $ 599 and $ 699 with Android 11 pre-installed and four color variants, black, purple, olive green and white. It is not confirmed, but it could be another of the Unpacked announcements. Samsung wants to maintain its leadership in the sale of smartphones and this S21 FE is an important model to add sales.
