Preparations for the new Samsung Galaxy S21 FE are in full swing. The manufacturer will release the successor to the successful Galaxy S20 FE, which has now been very interestingly reduced in price, in at least four colors. When it comes to those four, that number is less than the number of colors the S20 FE appeared in. Thanks to the photo, which is shared by colleagues from Android Headlines, we see a stylish device, whose design largely corresponds to that of the Galaxy S21 series.

Samsung will release the Galaxy S21 FE in the colors; black, white, light green and light violet. The camera module is less thick with the S21 FE than with the devices from the S21 series itself. It is expected that the device will be provided with a plastic housing, so that the device can be brought onto the market a little cheaper.

Previous rumors talked about the presence of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888 chipset, but the latest rumors contradict that. According to the newer reports, that ‘party’ is not going on. Samsung would instead provide the device with its own Exynos chipset. Samsung would have already postponed the introduction of the device due to the shortage of chips. Typically, the Snapdragon processors are known for being much more economical and also faster than the Exynos chipsets. In addition, an option would be kept open to release the S21 FE only in a few markets and not worldwide.
