After much delay and teasing last year, Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is finally here. Samsung has announced its budget flagship at CES 2022.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE succeeds the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE from 2020.
Samsung went with it glass plastic matte finish and a metal frame to give it that lightweight look and now goes head to head with last year’s Samsung Galaxy S21 from last year.
The back rocks the camera bump from the S21 series but instead of metal, its plastic.
It has a relatively sharp and bright 6.4″ 1080p screen rocking a 120Hz refresh rate. the bezels are slim and uniform – well, except for the bottom chin. Samsung Galaxy S21 FE has a punch-hole cutout for the 32MP selfie camera and it’s now bigger compared to the S20 FE without the chrome accent ring.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE ships with Snapdragon 888 processor coupled with either 6 or 8GB RAM and 128/256GB onboard storage.
For optics, we have a 12MP primary, 12MP ultrawide and 8MP telephoto(30X space zoom).
Samsung Galaxy S21 FE has One UI 4.0 and Android 12.
