I think Fan Edition phones should be priced higher but with better specs than the vanilla S21. Also with limited number of units.
Hardcore fans will be paying extra for that 'uniqueness'. However with the current setup, fans will pay of the ultra editions.
The launch price of the S21 FE was 800 euros, 870 for the 256gb/8gb version in my region
4 months later, my mom bought the base version of the S21 FE, at... Wait for it... 450 EUROS. ALMOST HALF PRICE CUT!!!
One month later, now it's even 400 euros!!
What's the point of a 4g version with that trash chipset??
At least S20 FE 4g 2020 version had exynos 990 which WAS a flagship chipset afterall.
This is pure b*llsh*it!!!
First, they killed note lineup, now they kill the FE lineup.
I thought 2022 couldn't get any worse from samsung... Wrong I was my boy!
At least the battery life should be better, AT LEAST!
Anonymous, 16 Jun 2022Or the 860 which isn't 5GThat'll be a worthy successor to the Galaxy A90 5G, even if it doesn't have 5G connectivity.
leazhito, 16 Jun 2022Isn't the Note (7) Fan Edition Samsung's first ever FE? That phone was mainly exclusive to SEA market, particularly Malaysia and Philippines. As far as I'm aware, the EU and the USA market never got it.
Maybe this was meant to be released in 2020
I can only assume that this will be an A52 or A72 with the same camera hardware as the S21 FE 5G and USB-C 3.1 with Samsung DeX capability. I'll be really crossed if DeX is available on the S21 FE 4G as the A52 and A72, alongside A52 5G, A52s 5G, A33 5G, A53 5G and A73 5G, is more than capable to run DeX. Samsung have no excuse not to give DeX on their higher-tier midrange phones. LG has already proved that it is possible to run their Screen+ Desktop Mode with the Snapdragon 765G-powered Velvet 5G and Wing 5G. Heck, even the Snapdragon 690-powered Sony Xperia 10 Mk3 and Snapdragon 695-powered Sony Xperia 10 Mk4 can run the built-in native Android Desktop Mode feature for crying out loud!
chats, 16 Jun 2022I agree, samsung just don't want to give us a good midrange device with at least snapdrag... moreIf it keeps the aluminium frame, IP68, software support, camera sensors and wireless charging of the S21 FE 5G, it has some better specs than the Xiaomis you've mentioned, you guys need to understand a phone isn't just about powerful SoC and fast battery charging.
If they price it the same price as the A53, some people will still buy it.
That chipset is literally worse than the A53, one of Samsung's **dedicated midrangers**... hell to the no.
Priced at 400 ? Wanna see this as a bet? I'll take it 379 or 399 make a lot of sense even with the crappy 720G (for the price asked, but again, see A53 ...)
Samurai Smith , 16 Jun 2022Samsung could've used a Snapdragon 870 or 7 gen 1 but that'll make it 5g.Or the 860 which isn't 5G
SD860 would've been fine but SD720G?
Samurai Smith , 16 Jun 2022Samsung could've used a Snapdragon 870 or 7 gen 1 but that'll make it 5g.I agree, samsung just don't want to give us a good midrange device with at least snapdragon 870 or 865. Look at Xiaomi poco f4 and x3 pro damn sammy this how you treat you loyal customers??
C'mon Samsung, this is just shameless! Snapdragon 720g in an S-series phone? That'll just ruin the prestige of owning a S series even an FE. The ISP on the 720g means average photos and the mediocre performance from the chip, Just why???
Hope this rumor is fake! Barely got to digest the rumored cancellation of the S22 FE now this?
Way weaker SoC than A52s, no thanks.
Galaxy Note FE release in July 2017.
Samsung could've used a Snapdragon 870 or 7 gen 1 but that'll make it 5g.
If gonna be a 720g SOC in it
The price better be in the £400 minimum
