Samsung Reportedly Delays the Launch of the Galaxy S21 FE
And it’s all because of the lack of chips for mobile phones
Jun 22, 2021 19:16 GMT  ·  By Bogdan Popa     

The global chip shortage has made another victim, as Samsung has reportedly decided to delay the release of the Galaxy S21 FE to the fourth quarter of the year.

In other words, the new Fan Edition smartphone won’t be here earlier than the last few months of the year, with a recent report pointing to the lack of chips as the reason for the whole thing.

The semiconductor shortage has been wreaking havoc in so many industries starting last year when the world moved to remote working and the sales of devices like phones, PCs, and tablets skyrocketed. Foundries out there struggle to align their production with the demand, but needless to say, the orders they received have been so big that building enough chips simply wasn’t possible.

Samsung itself is now feeling the impact of the global chip crisis as well, with people familiar with the matter recently indicating the company would no longer be able to start the production of the Galaxy S21 FE according to the original schedule because it doesn’t have the chips to do so.
Galaxy S21 FE still coming

And now SamMobile says the launch of this new Fan Edition smartphone has been pushed back to the fourth quarter of the year, so in theory, an official announcement is likely to land between October and December.

The good news is that despite the struggle with the chips, Samsung still wants to release the device, so the company isn’t even thinking about giving up on this model.

The bad news is that it’s taking longer than anticipated to unveil the new FE, so it remains to be seen if the market performance would still be notable, especially given it would arrive only a few months before a new Galaxy S model is projected to be announced.
