Samsung was thought to be working on the Galaxy S23 FE for some time. However, recent leaks have revealed an unexpected change. Allegedly, the tech giant will reintroduce the S21 FE 5G, which it announced in 2021. Leak sources say a new Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G with Snapdragon 888 chipset and 256 GB of storage is on the way.
Samsung Galaxy S21 FE allegedly coming
Samsung is developing the Galaxy FE family to appeal to the mid-upper segment market. The S21 FE, an affordable addition to the S21 series that debuted in 2021, is back on the agenda. The model, which is offered with Exynos 2100 SoC, will feature Snapdragon 888 in its new version.
Leaked information shows that the phone will be similar to the first version in terms of technical specifications. The main difference lies in the introduction of a new color option. The S21 FE 5G is currently available in Graphite, Olive, Lavender and White. The new model, on the other hand, says that a Navy Blue variant will make its debut.

On the other hand, there may be a 256GB version on the storage side. Although it has 6GB / 8GB RAM options, it seems possible that the new model will be introduced with only 8GB RAM.
S21 FE, which features a Super AMOLED display, has a triple camera setup on the back. It has a 12 MP main, 12 MP ultra-wide and 8 MP telephoto sensor.
