The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is expected to launch at the CES 2022 held in January. However, the phone manages to pop up in several images and videos so much so that the design and most of its specs are already known. Now, ahead of its release, the smartphone has been listed on Walmart revealing its price.

According to Walmart’s listing, the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is priced at $699 for the 128GB variant in Graphite colour. The variant listed is expected to be the 6GB RAM variant.

Unfortunately, the phone’s images aren’t posted on the product listing. It seems like the listing was either accidently published or it was quietly put up with the phone’s images left to be uploaded after its CES announcement.

Whatever is the case, the phone’s pricing is right up with what it was expected to be. That said, the phone is touted to cost £699 in the UK. Considering that the device costs $699 for the 128GB variant as per the listing, the phone may come at a price of $749 for the 256GB variant.

Additionally, a tipster revealed that Samsung has enough stocks of the Galaxy S21 FE. The device is touted to be already available in major countries and it may be available for purchase immediately after the launch.

There has been a lot of rumors and leaks surrounding the Galaxy S21 FE series. The device is also highly anticipated even though Samsung is yet to disclose when it will be launched. There are rumors that the device will go official in October. Apparently, the rumors may be true after all. The Galaxy S21 FE’s quick start guide has just leaked from a US carrier Cricket Wireless. The carrier is an AT&T-owned prepaid carrier that offers affordable phone plans that aren’t tied to annual contracts.

The guide shows that the phone will be offered by the carrier and that the launch is close by. It also confirms some of the vital info for users as well as live images of the affordable flagship device.

The Galaxy S21 FE is a highly-anticipated device mainly due to its ability to offer flagship features found on the Galaxy S21 series at an affordable price. The device will take over from the Galaxy S20 FE which was a hit when it was released last year.

This new leak comes not too long after the user manual for the S21 FE leaked online showing the device won’t have a MicroSD slot, among other things. The manual also reveals the device will also come with an IP68 waterproof rating, a high display refresh rate, and will feature an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor among others. The device will also miss out on a charging adapter inside the box.

While the Galaxy S21 FE 5G is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 888 chipset, a recent GeekBench listing shows that there will be an Exynos 2100 version as well. This has left some fans disappointed considering the below-par performance the Exynos version will provide compared to the Snapdragon-n model.

There is still no word yet from the Korean tech giant regarding a launch date but we expect an announcement to be made in that regard soon.
