It’s not exactly a surprise, but Samsung has officially confirmed its new flagship smartphones will launch next week on January 14.
The new range is set to be unveiled at a special Galaxy Unpacked event at 3pm UK time/10am EST, with Samsung widely expected to unveil three models: the S21; S21 Plus; and S21 Ultra.
To be honest, pretty much everything about the S21 models seems to have leaked online over the past few months, so unless Samsung have a big shock feature in store, this event will mostly just be confirming things that most Samsung fans already know.
Last week, detailed leaks confirmed two major changes compared to the S20 predecessor – namely a return to flat panel screens, and a new module-style for its triple camera setup – with a video showing off the S21’s rear camera also appearing on social media last month. WinFuture also confirmed that US customers will benefit from the new Snapdragon 888 processor, while European models will use Samsung’s own Exynos 2100 chip. Meanwhile, the higher-spec S21 Ultra will reportedly feature a curved display and support for Samsung’s S-Pen Stylus, which is making the jump across from the soon-to-be-discontinued Galaxy Note line.
