New leaks: S21 + in video, S21 series colors and more
Once again, we have a big dose of leaks – this time related to the new Samsung Galaxy S21 line. We have new information for each model of them – the S21 shows its colors, the S21 + model was shown directly in the video and we have also confirmed the stylus for the S21 Ultra.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 + appeared in the video
YouTuber Random Stuff 2 showed us a functional Samsung Galaxy S21 + model in the video. The guy shows almost symmetrical edges in it, which are also unprecedentedly thin. He also showed us the course and results of the Geekbench 5 benchmark, in which the board “lahaina” was mentioned, which corresponds to Snapdragon 888. It has this code designation. The scores were 1.115 and 3.326 (the first result for one core, the second for all together). We expect an improvement as this is not the final firmware version.
For a moment, the phone turned and showed us the back, which confirms three equally large lenses that will be mounted in a stylish island. We like this island more than on the Samsung Galaxy S20 +.

The guy also mentions that the phone is quite good, but complains a bit about the oversaturated colors. But since this is a pre-production model, it is possible that the situation will improve.
S21 series colors and memories
GSMArena shows the colors and memories that the S21 series will receive. We are talking about internal memory, not RAM. These will be identical for the Samsung Galaxy S21 and also for the S21 +, ie 128 or 256 GB. The S21 Ultra gets up to three memory versions – 128/256 and up to 512 GB.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 comes in four colors – gray, white, pink and purple. For a better idea of the shades, we also have pictures for the individual versions below.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 + comes in only three colors – purple, black and silver.
Finally, we have the S21 Ultra, which comes in only two colors – black and silver, but the stylus is a surprise. However, you will not be able to place it in the construction, as in the Note series, but you will need a special Clear View or silicone case. These cases will be included with the S-Pen, but you will need to purchase one separately.
The official performance will take place in a month – January 14. The phones will not go on sale until February, resp. in March. It is not yet known.
Our tip
The new Galaxy Buds wireless headphones come with the Galaxy S21. Soon
Competition
On January 14, we also expect the presentation of flagships from Xiaomi. We recently mentioned that very high-quality photos have appeared on the Internet, in which we see the Xiaomi Mi 11. However, we do not yet know what exactly the higher model will look like – the Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro. Both offer Snapdragon 888, 8 GB RAM and quality AMOLED panels. We don’t have all the specifications yet.
OnePlus is not lazy and is preparing a series marked 9. There will be three models – OnePlus 9, OnePlus 9 Pro and OnePlus 9E. We know almost nothing about the latest model, only that it should be the least powerful. OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro should get the latest Snapdragon 888, at least 8 GB of RAM, and with OnePlus 9 we expect a 6.55 ″ AMOLED with a 120 Hz display (like the OnePlus 8T). We also have photos of only the less equipped OnePlus 9.
