Galaxy S21 FE may launch on January 11

New Delhi: Samsung’s much-awaited Galaxy S21 FE is likely to launch on January 3 at 6 PM Pacific Time and go on sale on January 11, says a new leak. According to well-known tipster John Prosser, the smartphone may be announced on January 3, but Samsung’s main event is scheduled for January 4 at 6:30 pm.

The tipster tweeted from his official handle @jon_prosser, “I hear the announcement for the S21 FE continues on Monday, Jan 3 @ 6pm PST general availability Jan 11.”

The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE which was supposed to be unveiled weeks ago missed the deadline due to several reasons and also the global chipset crisis.

The tipster has shared four front renders of the Galaxy S21 FE on Twitter with different wallpapers, but all of them were revealed on January 11.

Earlier this month, details of Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G were spotted on Samsung’s support page. The official render of the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE also went live on the company’s support page for the UAE region before it was removed. Another report suggested that when the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is unveiled in January, it will be available in India, among other countries, in the first wave of launches. The Galaxy S21 FE is likely to be shipping with both the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 and Exynos 2100 chipset, depending on the region, as usual.

While it is known that the Galaxy FE lineup comprises the upper-mid-range segment of handsets, the Galaxy S22 will be Samsung’s next flagship series. As per reports, the delay in the long-awaited Galaxy S21 FE has been attributed to the global semiconductor crisis and not the strategy of the South Korean handset major.
