Samsung Galaxy S21 FE launch date tipped, could arrive sooner than you think

Published On: August 30, 2021

The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE launch date has been tipped once again and it might just be true this time. To recall, the “fan edition” phone was earlier expected to launch in August, but Samsung reportedly had to delay the launch due to component shortage issues. It now seems the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will launch in the first half of September if a new leak is anything to go by. The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE specifications have been tipped several times in the past as has the design, so we have a pretty good idea of what to expect from the Samsung phone.

Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will launch on September 8th, YouTuber and tipster Mauri WHD tweeted. The tipster received the intel from a source who was in touch with a Samsung employee. While we cannot verify this leak, it might be true as the phone has been receiving the necessary certifications for launch.

Samsung Galaxy S21 FE specifications

The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE specs have been reported a few times. Back in May, the phone appeared on Geekbench with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset, 6GB RAM, and Android 11. An 8GB RAM variant was spotted in June. The device also appeared on the FCC listing with 45W fast charging, which sounds unbelievable from a brand that has not moved above 25W charging support.

The idea behind the Fan Edition phone is to offer fan-favourite specs at a reasonable price point.

Reliable renders revealed that the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE features a centre-aligned punch-hole camera and a rectangular rear camera module that houses three camera sensors. Overall, the design is similar to the flagship Samsung Galaxy S21, which is to be expected. The idea behind the Fan Edition phone is to offer fan-favorite specs at a more reasonable price point.

Recently, the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE appeared on the Google Play Console website, which confirmed the Snapdragon 888 chipset, Android 11 OS, FHD+ display, and 6GB RAM. With the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE rumoured to launch on September 8th, we expect to know the pricing and availability details soon.
