Samsung recently started accepting reservations for the upcoming Galaxy S21 series smartphones in the United States which guarantees a pre-order slot when the device becomes available. The flagship Galaxy S-series smartphone lineup is expected to go official on January 14. Even though the company is yet to confirm this, the early pre-order may well be a pointer to the imminent launch.

Ahead of the launch, the official cases of the Galaxy S21 series have leaked online. The leaked images come thanks to tipster Ishan Agarwal in collaboration with MySmartPrice. The tipster disclosed that Samsung will unveil several casings for the Galaxy s21 series bearing different designs and manufactured using different materials. The materials include Clear view Cover, Led Cover, Led View cover, Silicone Case, Leather cover, protective Standing Cover, Cler protective cover, Clear Standing Cover, and Clear Cover.

The tipster noted that the January 14 launch date which is yet to be announced is embedded in one of the images. Also, he notes that the Clear View Case for the Galaxy S21 Ultra is wide due to the presence of housing for the S-Pen. Also, the leather case will be available in several colours such as classic tan brown, and black. The casing will also include a flip variant including one with a vertical clear strip that shows notification and another without any clear aspect.

To recall, the Galaxy S21 series is expected to include the base S21 and the S21 Plus. Both models will come with IP68 dustproof and water-resistant ratings. The Galaxy S21 will come with a plastic rear, while the S21+ will have a glass back. Both models will be powered by either an Exynos 2100 SoC or a Snapdragon 888 chipset, depending on the region.

We expect the Korean tech giant to announce the launch date pretty soon.
