Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G with a Snapdragon 888 SoC will be launched in India in July. The South Korean smartphone brand on Monday confirmed the upcoming arrival of the Samsung Galaxy S21 ‘Fan Edition’ smartphone in the country. The new variant will be equipped with a 5nm Snapdragon 888 SoC. The Galaxy S21 FE 5G was initially launched in India last year with an Exynos 2100 SoC under the hood. The new model will feature an Adreno 660 GPU and is confirmed to have 256GB of onboard storage.

The upcoming launch of the Galaxy S21 FE variant with a Snapdragon 888 SoC was announced by Samsung via a press release on Monday. The company, however, didn’t mention the exact launch date. It is confirmed to pack an Adreno 660 GPU and 256GB of onboard storage. This would be an upgrade over the base 128GB storage capacity offered by the ongoing Exynos 2100 SoC-powered Galaxy S21 FE.

The brand has created a dedicated landing page on its website to tease the launch of the new Galaxy S21 FE 5G variant. It is shown with a ‘coming soon’ tag. There is no official word on pricing for the new Galaxy S21 FE yet, but a recent report suggests a Rs. 49,999 price tag for the smartphone.

Last year’s Galaxy S21 FE 5G was launched for Rs. 54,999 for the 128GB storage variant and Rs. 58,999 for the 256GB option. However, it is currently available for purchase with a starting price of Rs. 32,999. The handset was launched with Snapdragon 888 SoC in select markets.

Besides the chipset, key specifications of the upcoming model are expected to be similar to the Exynos 2100 version of the Galaxy S21 FE. The ongoing model features a 6.4-inch full-HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X Display with a 120Hz refresh rate and packs 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM as standard. It has a triple rear camera setup comprising two 12-megapixel sensors. For selfies, there is a 32-megapixel selfie camera sensor as well.
