Samsung Galaxy S21 models were introduced in 2021. However, the affordable FE model of the series was delayed until the beginning of 2022 due to various glitches. The smartphone, which was introduced to users in January, went on sale only with a 5G variant, unlike the S20 FE.
In fact, while all eyes were on the Galaxy S22 FE, a phone with the model number SM-G990B2 appeared last week. Even important sources claimed that this is the 4G version of the Galaxy S21 FE. However, the latest development revealed that the rumors were unfounded.
Galaxy S21 FE 4G will not be released?
Samsung faced significant difficulties during the promotion process of the Galaxy S21 FE. Due to problems such as chip crisis and pandemic, the release date of the device has been delayed many times. There were even rumors that it was canceled for a while.
Despite all these troubles, the company introduced the smartphone in January 2022. However, as in the Galaxy S20 FE, two different variants, 4G and 5G, did not appear. The model took its place on the shelves only with the 5G version.
This is exactly the reason behind the rumors that the device with the model number SM-G990B2 is the Galaxy S21 FE 4G. However, according to the news of MySmartPrice, the allegations do not reflect the truth.
MySmartPrice announced that it has detected a phone with the corresponding model number in the Google Play compatible devices list. However, this was the 5G version of the Galaxy S21 FE, not the 4G as claimed. Samsung is not working on such a phone, at least for now. In fact, the common point of the recent claims is that the company will shelve the FE series.
