- Promotional material for the Galaxy S21 series leaked.
- This shows that Samsung is removing the download adapter and headphones.
- It may also indicate no expandable storage on some models.
Samsung’s new flagships are barely two days away, but the leaks just don’t stop. Reliable tipster Roland Quandt of WinFuture has now leaked marketing materials for the Galaxy S21 series, confirming what you get in the box and what you do not get.
As several rumors have noted earlier, Samsung will give the charging adapter a pass, making the packaging of the new phones slimmer and more compact. Like Apple, Samsung can also justify its decision as an environmentally friendly step.
What you do get in the box is a USB-C data cable, an ejector and a quick directions guide.
There are no headphones in this time either. This makes sense because Samsung is already selling a bunch of TWS earphones and also launching its new Galaxy Buds Pro along with the S21 series. The phone maker probably wants people to buy it instead of using in-box earphones, like the AKG earbuds it comes with the S20 flagships.
When you start marketing the enclosed storage to make sure no one notices that you have omitted the extension option. More retail marketing security for the # GalaxyS21(Plus) and the # GalaxyS21Ultra 1/2 pic.twitter.com/YpDpBSLpj3

Other promotional materials offered by Quandt show how Samsung markets different storage variants for the Galaxy S21 Plus and S21 Ultra. The tipster suggests that the company do this because the phones are not available with expandable storage. These are also rumors for a while, but we’ll have to see which variants do not have a microSD storage when confirmed.
