Samsung Galaxy S21 FE billed for October 20 launch

After months of teasers, it appears Samsung is finally ready to release its next premium phone, the Galaxy S21 FE. Information coming from Korea now purports to reveal the exact launch date of the Galaxy S21 FE, and it's a lot closer than expected.

According to leaker Front Tron, the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will be launched on October 20 in an event supposedly labeled as "Unpacked Part 2". It's important to note that the leaker is only reporting information from Korean blogging platform Naver. We wouldn't consider it to be as reliable as a first-hand tip. Either way, the S21 FE is expected to go on sale on October 29, with pre-orders starting immediately it's launched on October 20. 

It should be recalled that earlier information always leaned towards an October release for the phone. This would be right in line with that, reliably moreso seeing as the Galaxy S20 FE was launched in October last year as well.

Specs of the Galaxy S21 FE have been leaked already but here's a short outline:

• 120 Hz AMOLED
• Snapdragon 888
• 12 MP + 12 MP + 8 MP
• 4500 mAh
• 25 W charging
