Samsung announces Galaxy S21 FE



 After a lot of delays, rumors, and leaks, Samsung has finally announced its affordable S21 FE smartphone.

The S21 FE or S21 Fan Edition phone comes with specifications that are very close to the regular S21 phone, with minor differences, and at a cheaper price of only $100, and only a few weeks away from announcing the new S22 series with newer and better specifications.

The S21 FE comes with a 6.4-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen, with a resolution of Full HD (1080 x 2400 pixels), and a density of 411 pixels per inch. The screen supports HDR10+ and comes with a refresh rate of 120 Hz, a sampling rate of 480 Hz, and it is protected by a Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protection layer.


Samsung S21 FE has a triple rear camera system with a similar design to the Galaxy S21- and this is normal as the FE is a reduced version of the basic S series' phone version-, and it consists of a 12-megapixel wide-angle lens primary camera with an aperture of f/1.8, and supports autofocus and optical image stabilization (OIS), while the second one is a 12-megapixel wide-lens camera with an f/2.2 lens aperture and a 123-degree field of view. The third camera is an 8MP telephoto camera that supports autofocus, capable of up to 3x optical zoom, and up to 30 times Space Zoom.

As for the selfie, the smartphone is equipped with a 32-megapixel wide-angle camera with an f/2.2 lens slot, in the form of a punch hole in the upper middle part of the front screen.

For the processor, as usual, Samsung uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor in the version dedicated to the US market, and its infamous Exynos 2100 processor in the version of the S21 FE intended for the rest of the world, and although Samsung says that it has improved the performance of the Exynos processor, it is still less stable and hotter than the Qualcomm processor, which is disappointing given that both versions sell for the same price.

As for the RAM and internal storage, the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is available in three versions:

  • 6GB RAM with 128GB internal storage
  • 8GB RAM with 128GB internal storage
  • 8GB RAM with 256GB internal storage

The phone does not have  an SD card slot, so you cannot expand the given internal storage.

This phone has a 4000 mAh battery that supports 25W fast charging, which is a very low charging speed compared to what competitors offer, such as 120W in the Xiaomi 12 smartphone. The S21 FE phone also supports 15W wireless charging, and reverse wireless charging.


Finally, the S21 FE also supports 4G and 5G networks, NFC, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, and has an IP68 water protection, stereo speakers, an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, and USB Type-C 3.2 for charging and data transfer. It comes in four colors: Olive, Graphite, Lavender, and White, and it will be available for purchase on 11th January next week, price starting at $699.

DEKUVE Colors 0.1 is a beautiful and promising Linux distro based on Debian

As we said in a previous article, the most important characteristic of GNU Linux operating systems is its versatility, as there is a Linux distribution for everything and every taste and all types and specifications of hardware, it is an operating system that you can run in everything, whatever it is or is. Most of these distributions are derived or based from one of these parent distributions: Debian (like Ubuntu, Linux Mint, MX Linux...), Arch Linux (like Manjaro, EndeavourOS, Garuda Linux...), and Red Hat Enterprise Linux aka RHEL (like Fedora, CentOS, ClearOS...).  These derivative distributions are also divided into two types: the first one, where developers take the base of one of the other Linux distributions and build their distribution on it, by adding their packages and desktop environment, such as a Linux Mint distribution, for example, which develops the Cinnamon desktop interface and uses it in its main release, or uses a desktop interface already exists as Manjaro do, whi

Deepin Linux 20.2.2 Released With A Brand-New App Store, Android Apps Support, And More

The developers of the Chinese distribution of GNU Linux, Deepin, based on the stable version of Debian, announced the availability of a new version of the most beautiful distribution in the Linux world.  Deepin OS version 20.2.2 brings a set of new features and bug fixes for various components and components of the operating system to improve system consistency and stability and enhanced the overall user experience.  As usual for most Chinese projects, despite its useful features and beautiful design, Deepin Linux distribution suffers from a partial lack of translation into foreign languages, so we find some core operating system applications and components are in the Chinese language, and this is unfortunate, and we hope to be fixed in the Next versions of this beautiful Linux distro.  The first great and new feature in Deepin Linux 20.2.2, is that the OS comes now with Secure Boot support.  Secure Boot is a security standard developed by members of the PC industry to help ensure that

Rufus 3.18 Beta Adds The Bypass Of Windows 11 Restrictions To In-place Upgrades

A new beta version of the Rufus installation images burning tool was recently released with several new features, the most important of which is the ability to bypass Windows 11 restrictions for in-place upgrades. Rufus is a free and open-source tool that helps create bootable USB flash drives from ISO images. It supports most Linux distributions, in addition to Windows, and to MS-DOS compatible operating systems. This tool supports burning Windows installation images, from Windows XP SP2 and above, including the recently released Windows 11. After the release of Windows 11, Microsoft announced an update to the minimum specifications required to install the new system, the most important of which is that the computer must have a modern processor, TPM 2.0, and it must support secure boot too, to be compatible with Windows 11.  Many users did not like this, which made Microsoft allow Windows 11 to be installed on non-compatible devices by making some modifications in the system registry.
