The rumors of the Samsung Galaxy S21 smartphone may be cheaper than the current Galaxy S20 family. The South Korean delicious Landsk speculates that the Galaxy S21 will start at $ 850, the S21 Plus at $ 1,050 and the S21 Ultra at $ 1,250. That would be a drop of $ 100 from the launch price of the S20 base in March last year.

Meanwhile, Samsung calls its new foldable phones “more accessible”, which could indicate lower prices wider. The technology giant may feel pressure to make its devices more affordable after seeing sales of more than 20% in the second quarter of 2020. Analysts point out that the coronavirus pandemic is the reason for the smartphone sales.
Samsung did not respond to a request for comment.
The Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21 Plus and the Galaxy S21 Ultra will debut on January 14 – the last day of CES – on January 7 PT (10am ET), at the Samsung Unpacked event. The event theme of the South Korean company is “Welcome to Everyday Epic.” Here’s how to watch Samsung Unpacked live.
The new phones are the successor to the S20 phones, which Samsung released last year to meet various budgets. Rumors had already circulated in November that Samsung was already mass-producing the Galaxy S21.
