It's been a rocky road for the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, a French telephone that was reported stone-dead in some June and September, but it looks like the Fan Edition of matchless of 2021's best phones will get on shelves inside weeks.

That's what established leakers undergo been saying for some time, and patc you can fill grapevine release date whisperings with a grain of salt, it's harder to fake unboxing videos, the first of which has now popped up connected YouTube via the Italian channel HDblog.

Patc non-Italian speakers liable won't draw too so much from the first impressions, a couple of things are immediately obvious but from watching.

For one, the phone tight mimics the design of the original Samsung Galaxy S21 American Samoa you would expect. Information technology's larger at 6.4-inches (the original was 6.2-inches) and the camera bump is molded from the aforesaid constructive as the shell, rather than being a distinct metal detail, but other there's very little to split the ii at a quick glance. At the rattling least, these leaked Galaxy S21 Iron cases aside Samsung Hungary look cool.

On the privileged, the specs are exactly what we were expecting too, with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC powering things, backed by 6GB RAM and 128GB of national storage. Like the S21, IT packs a 120Hz panel, though IT is lower answer, outputting at Full HD+ rather than 1440p.

One other thing to take from the unboxing component is that, in Italy at least, it seems Samsung is continuing its efforts to reduce accessories in the box. There are nobelium earbuds or wall charger, with just the USB-C cable's length and theme documentation accompanying the call itself. Sensible from a green perspective, but awkward if your battery charger has compact in.

The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE could represent officially unveiled as early A January 4, while CES 2022 is in full action.

That leave give it only a brief act of breathing space before the Samsung Galaxy S22 follows, supposedly in February. Given last year's Galaxy S20 FE arrived in September, a full 128 years before the S21, the repeated delays of the latest FE could come to haunt Samsung. If the dates examine to be accurate, and then we'll soon see if late really is amended late than never and if this French telephone can crack our best Android phones inclination.
