If you already considered the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE as vaporware, you won’t have been entirely wrong as the device was almost thought to have been discontinued. However, Samsung has rekindled hope of an imminent launch as the support page for the device which had earlier been pulled down from the Korean brand’s website has now gone live again.

Support pages for a Samsung model with model number SM-G990 believed to be the Galaxy S21 FE have been re-uploaded on Samsung’s website in two different markets. A variant with model number SM-G990E appeared on the Samsung Africa website. The device had earlier been spotted on GeekBench and Google Play Console packing an in-house Exynos 2100 chipset. However, there is likely to be a Snapdragon 888-powered version launched in the US and China.

The Galaxy S21 FE is rumored to launch on January 11 and this latest leak almost confirms that date. The delay in the launch is attributed to the global shortage of chipsets which has forced some automobile giants to shut down some of their factories.

The Galaxy S21 FE  is expected to feature a 6.4-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The display holds a punch-hole design which houses a 32MP selfie camera. It is also expected to pack a triple camera and will cram a 4,500mAh battery with support for 25W fast charging.
