While the pre-order are reportedly going to start from 14 January, the series will go on sale from 29 January, as per Prosser.He also gave an insight into the colour variants of the models. The South Korean firm is likely to offer the upcoming smartphones in Black, White, Grey, Silver, Violet and Pink colour variants.

The colour variants’ leak matches with an earlier leak made by DSCC analyst Ross Young. He also suggested in his 23rd October tweet that production of the three Galaxy S21 models is ongoing in units of Brazil, Indonesia, South Korea, and Vietnam.The Galaxy S21 series is probably going to come with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset in the US, and the latest flagship Exynos processor in global markets. Although Samsung is set to launch its next processor, the Exynos 1080, on 12 November, this chipset is not likely to support the S21 series. As a successor to Samsung’s Exynos 980 SoC that featured in Samsung Galaxy A71, Galaxy A51; it is expected that the new processor will be powering upcoming mid ranging devices, possibly the successor models of the Samsung Galaxy A51 and A71.
