Even though it has been announced, Samsung is still keeping the price of the Galaxy S21 FE a secret. Unlike in neighboring countries, the price tag for the successor to the Galaxy S20 FE has been revealed.
Samsung Malaysia has opened pre-orders for the Galaxy S21 FE from January 6 to 10, 2022. As in the country, there are two configurations offered in the neighboring country.
Reported by the Htechnology page, the price of the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE in Malaysia is as follows:
- 8GB RAM + 128GB ROM 2,899 ringgit
- 8GB RAM + 256GB ROM 3,099 ringgit
During the pre-order period, Samsung Malaysia is offering a discount of RM 2,549 and RM 2,749, respectively. Not only that, Samsung offers a 30% discount on accessory purchases and a trade-in program.
By knowing the price in Malaysia, at least we get an idea of the price tag of the Galaxy S21 FE on the market. Because the price of Samsung phones in many countries is not much difference.
Hopefully Samsung will announce the Galaxy S21 FE soon. Let's just wait.

As the successor to the Galaxy S20 FE, Samsung provides a number of improvements. But not only that, this South Korean tech giant brings a refresh to its design.
The appearance of the Galaxy S21 FE is similar to the latest Galaxy A series, made of plain and matte finish so that it is comfortable to hold. The camera module is made to resemble the contour cut of the Galaxy S21.
There are four colors given by Samsung, namely Purple, White, Graphite and Olive. Although the material is made of polycarbonate, the Galaxy S21 FE has an IP68 certificate which means it is water and dust resistant.
Another difference that is visible to the eye is the screen. Samsung no longer carries a 20:9 ratio, the Galaxy S21 FE screen is made 19.5: 9.
Yes it's like the iPhone screen ratio. But the colors presented by the Galaxy S21 FE are more pleasing to the eye, because the panel used is Dynamic AMOLED 2X and the bezel is very thin.
The screen itself is 6.4 inches with Full HD + resolution. Samsung provides support for a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a touch sampling rate of 240 Hz. Not to forget, the screen of this phone is coated with Gorilla Glass Victus.
At the top of the screen there is a punch hole that houses a 32 MP selfie camera. While on the back mounted three cameras.
The Galaxy S21 FE has a 12 MP main camera that has an aperture of f/1.8 and is equipped with Dual Pixel AF and OIS features. Then there is a 12 MP ultra-wide camera with a 123-degree angle of reach, and an 8 MP telephoto camera capable of digital zooming up to 30x.
Samsung provides many interesting camera features. There is Dual Recording which will be cool to make vlogs and Object Reaser to remove objects in photos without the need to install third-party applications.
Talking about the runway, the Galaxy S21 FE is powered by Exynos 2100, this chip previously supported the Galaxy S21. Made with 5 nm fabrication, Samsung claims to be able to deliver a performance increase of up to 25-30%.
The phone only has an 8GB RAM option. However, Samsung provides a RAM plus feature of up to 4 GB, so that the total RAM that the Galaxy S21 FE has reaches 12 GB.
For internal memory, there are 128GB and 256GB options. Maybe because the storage capacity is already large, Samsung does not provide a microSD slot on this cellphone.
The battery itself has a larger capacity than the Galaxy S21, which is 4,500 mAh. Samsung is equipped with 25W fast charging technology using wired and 15W wireless. Do not miss PowerShare support to charge other devices wirelessly.
