    We had exclusively revealed last month that the Galaxy S21 series will be launched in January 2021. Another report had claimed that the phones will go on sale in February. A new leak claims that Samsung's upcoming flagship smartphone series will be announced in January, and it will go on sale in the same month.

    According to YouTuber Jon Prosser, Samsung will unveil the Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+, and the Galaxy S21 Ultra on January 14, 2021. He claims that the South Korean tech giant will start accepting pre-orders for the Galaxy S21 series on the same day, and the phones will be available for purchase starting January 29, 2021. In his tweet, Prosser has also claimed that the Galaxy S21 devices will be launched in these colors: Black, Grey, Pink, Silver, Violet, and White.

    The first renders of the Galaxy S21 and the Galaxy S21 Ultra emerged last month. Samsung is expected to ditch curved screens this year. The Galaxy S21 series devices are expected to launch with Android 11 and One UI 3.1. They could come equipped with the Exynos 2100 processor (Snapdragon 875 in China and the US). We can also expect features like 120Hz Super AMOLED Infinity-O screens, IP68 certification, stereo speakers, and in-display fingerprint readers.

    The Galaxy S21 Ultra could come with a penta-camera setup, featuring two telephoto lenses. The Galaxy S21, S21+, and S21 Ultra will feature 4,000mAh, 4,800mAh, and 5,000mAh batteries. The smartphones are also expected to come with fast wireless charging, reverse wireless charging, Samsung Pay, microSD card slot, and HDR10+ video playback.
