Samsung was rumoured to be working on the Galaxy S21 Fan Edition smartphone. Rumour mill claimed that Samsung could unveil the affordable version of the S21 series later this year in October. Samsung did not announce any official launch details of the device. It, however, accidentally teased the device via one of its Instagram posts, which was later taken down. Based on these reported incidents, we expected the phone to launch in October, as rumoured. However, it looks like Samsung might not launch the Galaxy S21 FE at all. According to a new report from SamMobile, citing DDaily, the South Korean tech giant has cancelled its plans to launch the FE edition smartphone.
The report states that Samsung had scheduled the Galaxy S21 FE launch event for mid-October. However, the plans have been cancelled due to the overwhelming response on the Galaxy Z Flip3 and the Z Fold 3. This, coupled with the ongoing semiconductor shortage, Samsung has decided to continue focusing on its premium foldable flagship range, especially the Galaxy Z Flip 3.
