Is Galaxy S21 FE worth Buying without MicroSD Slot, Charger?

The exact unpack event of the Galaxy S21 FE is not yet known, but we have all the technical specification and features of the handset. In this article, we are going discuss key details about the phone.

 

Let's begin with the features of the S21 FE starting with the microSD card slot. Last year's S20 FE has an expandable storage option so it was expected that the tradition would continue this year as well. But turns out that is not going to happen. The Galaxy S21 FE will not contain a microSD card slot. To be honest, people look for the best value-for-money phone in these fan edition devices. So not having an option to expand the storage could leave a lot of people disappointed.

 

The manual also indicates that the S21 FE would not come with a charger or a 3.5mm headphone port, a move that shouldn't be that surprising considering that all of Samsung's recent flagships have gone the Apple way and got rid of these things.

 

The user manual also confirms features like IP68 water and dust resistance rating. An under-display ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, a 6.5" FHD+ 120Hz display, wireless and reverse wireless charging, Samsung DeX and Dolby Atmos stereo speakers. It will also have a 25W fast charging, a 4500mAh battery, 6 or 8GB RAM, 128 or 256GB of storage and Snapdragon 888 or Exynos 2100 SoC depending on the region.

The phone will be launched in 4 colors, Graphite, White, Olive Green, and Lavender and the phone will have Android 11 out of the box.  

 

Now, as for the launch date, Jon Prosser has given insight on this. He says the phone will be available for pre-order on Wednesday, October 20th and the phone will be available in stores from October 29th onwards. Now, he didn't mention when exactly the unpacked event is taking place but it's safe to say it's going to be in the first half of October.
