Three years have passed, and the stock of Snapdragon 888 processors is still not empty. This forced Samsung to relaunch the Galaxy S21 FE. According to a report by SamMobile, Samsung plans to re-release its Galaxy S21 FE 5G phone in India, and the main change this time is that it will be equipped with a Snapdragon 888 processor.
In the Hong Kong market, only the Snapdragon 888 version of the S21 FE is sold, but in India, the previous version is equipped with the Exynos 2100 platform. The Snapdragon 888 version of the S21 FE launched in the Indian market this time has the model number SM-G990B4 and is priced at Rs 49,999.
Many believe that the main reason for Samsung’s relaunch of the Galaxy S21 FE this time is that the Snapdragon 888 processor’s inventory has not yet been digested. The Snapdragon 888 processor was introduced at the end of 2020, and yet there are still plenty of them in stock. However, frankly speaking, this processor manufactured by Samsung has been controversial.
In addition to changes in the processor, other specifications of the S21 FE include a 6.4-inch AMOLED screen, a 4500mAh battery (supporting 25W wired and 15W wireless charging), and IP68-level dust and water resistance.
The stock issue of the Snapdragon 888 processor is certainly a challenge for Samsung. However, with the relaunch of the Galaxy S21 FE, Samsung is expected to address this issue. At the same time, this also provides consumers with a new option to choose the Galaxy S21 FE equipped with a Snapdragon 888 processor.
