Galaxy S21 rumors and leaks: Everything we all know about the new phone s21

Samsung is preparing to release a subsequent Galaxy S phone, likely called the Galaxy S21, in only over a month's time consistent with reports. the corporate released an entire slew of phones in 2020 to match almost every budget, from the $100 (about £70 or AU$130) Galaxy A01 all the way through to the $1,999 Galaxy Z Fold 2. But the Galaxy S the line is seen because the company's flagship handset and new leaks point to the S21 sporting a replacement design with improved camera features including a 10x optical zoom. Other rumors say the S21 Ultra might even replace the Galaxy Note phones altogether.

 

Here's everything we all know thus far about the Galaxy S21 phones.

 

3 Galaxy S21 phones with an equivalent processor

It should come as no surprise that Samsung is predicted to launch three different models of the S21: the 6.2-inch S21, 6.7-inch S21 Plus, and 6.8-inch S21 Ultra. But an in-depth leak from Max Weinbach from Android Police documents almost the whole spec sheet, which reveals even more about these three phones than simply the model names and sizes.

 

The screens will likely all support 120Hz just like the earlier S20 series, with the S21 Ultra sporting the very best resolution WQHD Plus display. But the opposite key reveal is that these phones will likely use the newest Snapdragon processor within the US. Previously thought to be called the Snapdragon 875, it's actually been branded because the Snapdragon 888 and it had been just announced at a Qualcomm virtual event on Tuesday. a number of the key claims of the new chip are faster 5G performance and extended battery life.

 

The other main differences between the S21 phones look to be the planning of the camera modules, color options, material finish, and in fact the battery capacity. the bottom S21 will have a 4,000-mAh battery, the S21 Plus battery are going to be 4,800 mAH and therefore the high-end S21 Ultra will get a mammoth 5,000-mAh battery, consistent with the leaked spec sheet. At the instant, it appears as if the S21 and S21 Plus will have a plastic finish, with the S21 Ultra getting a metal finish.

 

The three-camera array on the S21 and S21 Plus has been moved to the highest left corner and it's safe to assume there'll be a daily wide-angle, ultrawide angle, and a telephoto camera. This render matches the leaked spec sheet from Android Police, which says these are going to be a 12-megapixel ultrawide and wide camera, plus a 64-megapixel telephoto camera. The LED flash has been moved just to the proper of the camera housing.

 

The Galaxy S21 Ultra may be a little different, with a way bigger camera module with four rear cameras: a 12-megapixel wide and ultrawide, plus two 10-megapixel telephoto cameras at 3x and 10x optical zoom. It also appears as if the 100x space zoom seen on the S20 Ultra also will feature on the S21 Ultra. Space zoom is Samsung's term for the hybrid digital and optical zoom wont to reach 100x.

 

The S21 Ultra's main camera looks to possess a 108-megapixel sensor dubbed "gen 2 sensor" on the spec sheet. We assume it'll use an identical pixel binning method to output 12-megapixel shots, just like the S20 Ultra and Note 20 Ultra do with their 108-megapixel sensors.

  

Will the Galaxy S21 have accessories within the box?

Samsung might follow Apple's lead in removing both the charger and corded headphones from the box of the Galaxy S21, consistent with an earlier report. This wouldn't be the primary time that Samsung has removed the headphones from the retail box, as the $1,999 Galaxy Z Fold 2 shipped without headphones within the US (although you'll request a pair of AKG headphones from Samsung after purchase).

 

Goodbye Galaxy Note, hello stylus for the S21?

A report from Reuters reveals that Samsung may discontinue the Galaxy Note line and therefore the S21 Ultra will take its place because of the Samsung phone with a stylus. While the renders don't show a clear location for a stylus, the phone could still support the S Pen with a software update. this is able to mean that the stylus would need to be housed separately from the phone when not in use.

 

There is also the likelihood that Samsung will drop the bottom price of the Galaxy S21, perhaps in response to the drop in sales of mobile phones across the board due to the coronavirus pandemic. South Korean leaker Landsk claims that the S21 will start at $899, the S21 Plus at $1,099, and therefore the S21 Ultra $1,250. this is able to mark a $100 price drop compared to the launch price of the regular S20 in March 2020.

 

As for release dates for the S21 series, Samsung usually updates the Galaxy S line in February or March annually . But this has been no ordinary year and a number of other sources say that Samsung may move up the discharge schedule one month to January 2021.
