Samsung faces hefty challenge from Chinese brands with quality products at affordable price point. So the South Korean giant decided its Galaxy S series needed a similar offering. That is why we saw the debut of the Galaxy S20 FE last year, and now, they are introducing the Galaxy S21 FE for buyers with upgraded features. The new variant gets a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display that offers Full HD+ resolution at 1080x2400 pixels. This brings the pixel density of the screen to 393 PPI. The front display has a punch hole that houses the camera and gets Corning Gorilla Glass protection. The new Galaxy FE device uses octa-core Exynos 9 Octa 990 chipset, paired with 8GB RAM 128GB internal storage that is expandable up to 1TB using hybrid card slot. For imaging purpose, the phone carries a triple rear camera that consists of 16MP sensor, 8MP telephoto sensor, and 12MP ultra-wide-angle sensor. For selfies and video calling, the phone comes with 32MP selfie camera. The Galaxy S21 FE gets backed up with a 4800mAh battery that supports fast charging via USB Type C. Other features on the phone are on-screen fingerprint sensor, and face unlock. Other popular Samsung mobiles in the market are Galaxy F62, Galaxy M31 and the Galaxy A51.
