The lack of leaks we’ve seen around the Samsung Galaxy S21 doesn’t show that they’re stopping, and the latest rumor is around the prices of the handsets – and it looks like that several of the S21 phones will get a price drop compared to their predecessors.
The price comes through 91mobiles and Ishan Agarwal, sources that can usually be trusted when it comes to rumored details about future phones. The standard Galaxy S21 seems to launch for € 849 and up, the 128GB S21 Plus for € 1,049, the 256GB S21 Plus for € 1,099, and the S21 Ultra for € 1,399 and up.
We can put these in other currencies for you – the range is from $ 1,040 / £ 770 / AU $ 1,365 to $ 1,715 / £ 1,270 / AU $ 2,250 – but Samsung is almost certainly not using the those changes, so those prices will be off. If you are not buying in euros it may be more helpful to tell you how they are compared to last year.
The 5G version of the standard Galaxy S20 started at € 999 for example, so that model could be in line with price cuts. The 128GB Galaxy S21 Plus is also looking to get a € 50 discount from the launch price of the equivalent 5G Galaxy S20 Plus. Meanwhile, the rumored price of S21 Ultra is higher than last year: € 1,399 instead of € 1,349 for the 5G Galaxy S20 Ultra.
Of course with European charges, different storage capacities, and 4G / 5G for inclusion, it’s hard to say with certainty how the 2020 models match the 2021 models, but it seems to be the price is pretty much the same in the table, with just € 50 in one go.
Previous price reductions citing figures from India also give the impression that prices will be similar to last year. If there is going to be a major cut on any of these models, it is likely to be with the entry level Galaxy S21.
Ishan Agarwal has also released a new version of the Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus, which we have established above. It fits in with the other unofficial offerings we’ve seen so far from online consultants, with the biggest design change from last year’s phones around the camera’s rear area.
Rumors and new Galaxy S21 leaks are falling almost every day now, ahead of an expected release on January 14, 2021. We recently saw unconfirmed information revealed about the two zoom cameras. will be behind the S21 Ultra.
