The Galaxy S21 FE is the budget edition of the Galaxy S21 flagship smartphone released in January. The product is expected to be launched in September or October as Samsung apparently wants to focus on promoting foldable devices in the summer, according to the sources.

Nothing has been confirmed about Samsung's upcoming foldable smartphones, but tech reviewers predicted that the Galaxy Z Fold3 will feature an under display camera and support the S-Pen stylus.

Its next clamshell foldable Galaxy Z Flip3 is expected to have a bigger outer display.

Both foldable products are expected to have a lighter weight with a cheaper price than their predecessors.

The Galaxy Watch4 smartwatch is expected to be powered by Google's Wear OS. Samsung previously announced it will develop a unified smartwatch platform with Google.
