The Galaxy S21 may have glass on only one side. (Source: OnLeaks)

A new leak alleges the Samsung Galaxy S21 will have a plastic rear panel

The Samsung Galaxy S21 series is probably not too far from launch at this point. The latest tip on this subject contains a near-complete specs leak for its 3 putative variants. However, it also offers interesting new details, such as that the vanilla model will not have a premium glass back for the first time. The phones' new colorways are also named in this new report.
