According to the BGR India, Samsung accidentally listed “Conoce más sobre Galaxy S21 FE on its mexican website”, which translates to “Learn more about the Galaxy S21FE”. The error was corrected soon after, but it ended up revealing the company’s intentions to bring this phone to the markets soon. Previous leaks suggest that the Galaxy S21 FE is almost ready and we have leaked renders of the same.

The previous renders hinted at a design similar to the Galaxy S21, i.e., the same rectangular camera hump fusing into the frame. The smartphone is expected to feature a unibody construction made of plastic, similar to the Galaxy S20 FE and Galaxy S10 Lite. There is said to be a 6.4-inch AMOLED display with flat edges.

The display on the Galaxy S21 FE is said to hold a 32MP selfie camera while the entire phone could rely on a 4500mAh battery. It remains to be seen whether Samsung opts for the Exynos 2100 chip or goes for the Snapdragon 870/ Snapdragon 888 chip.

According to the report, the Snapdragon 870 chip has been powering numerous “Lite” versions of flagships this year; the prime example being the OnePlus 9R. The Snapdragon 870 offers slightly better performance than the Snapdragon 865 and is cheaper for phone manufacturers, despite having a 5G modem. Hence, this could help Samsung keep the prices of the Galaxy S21 FE low.

Meanwhile, Samsung has launched a new 5G-ready smartphone -- Galaxy M42 5G -- in India, starting at Rs 21,999. The smartphone comes in two storage models that includes a 6GB+128GB variant and a 8GB+128GB variant, priced at Rs 21,999 and Rs 23,999, respectively.
