Samsung is all set to unveil the all-new Galaxy S21 FE. The Fan Edition phone will be launching as the successor to the Galaxy S20 FE. Recently, this Galaxy Fan Edition device appeared online. The leaks give us an idea about what the upcoming smartphone will be like. According to most recent information, the production for this upcoming smartphone has been suspended. This means that there could be a possible delay in launch too.
Samsung Galaxy S21 FE launch could delay
According to reports from ETNews, the production for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S21 FE has been suspended. The production has been halted because of the battery issues. The report suggests that the battery component of the Galaxy S21 FE has failed to meet the quality standards.

Production Delay
According to an official statement from Samsung to Bloomberg, the company cannot discuss the details of the unlaunched product. Right now, nothing has been clear regarding the alleged delay in production. It seems like Samsung wants to delay the production for the upcoming smartphone until some solution is provided. This is because the company did not want to repeat the same problem as it happened with the Galaxy Note 7 issue.
If this report comes out to be true, then there is a chance that the phone’s launch could delay for some time. Additionally, to recall, the Galaxy S21 FE is likely to launch in the month of August alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Galaxy Z Flip 3.

The upcoming device is likely to take on the likes of the OnePlus 9, the Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro, and many others. Regarding design and specs, the upcoming Galaxy S21 FE is likely to carry a similar design to that of the Galaxy S21. However, the Fan Edition device is likely to launch with some compromises also. The smartphone could launch with a plastic unibody, unlike the metallic plastic build.
Fan Edition Smartphone with Snapdragon 888
The Galaxy device could launch with four colour options, including matte green, matte purple, white, and black colours. The Fan Edition smartphone could feature the flagship-grade Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chip. The device will get an AMOLED display along with a 120Hz refresh rate.

Chinese variant with 25W fast charging

If this news comes true, then it will be great for Samsung fans to get 25W fast charge support. To recall, Samsung has always provided its lower-priced phone with a slower 15W charging adapter. Moreover, the 25W charger is considered fast by the Samsung Standards. However, compared with the market competition, this charging adapter may fall behind by a massive margin.
Rivals like OnePlus, Xiaomi, and others are providing higher capacity charging adapters with their upcoming smartphones. Recently, the entire OnePlus 9 Series comes with the support of a 65W fast charging solution. Whereas, Xiaomi offers faster 33W and 67W fast chargers with its Mi 11 Series.
