The same day the Samsung Galaxy A52, Galaxy A52 5G and A72 were revealed at a Samsung Unpacked event, a leaked ‘mini-roadmap’ alleges that the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will launch at a similar event in August.

The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE (Fan Edition) is the rumored follow-up to last year’s Samsung Galaxy S20 FE, which was a more affordable version of that year’s flagship phones released later in the year – in October 2020.

But according to this ‘mini-roadmap,’ which was publicized by noted leaker Evan Blass in a Voice post, means we’d be seeing the S21 FE a lot earlier in the year than its predecessor.

Other Samsung products coming?

Blass’s mini-roadmap offered potential release dates for other products launching this year. Most notably, it predicts an Unpacked event dedicated to PCs, which likely refer to more Chrome-powered Galaxy Chromebooks and/or Windows-running Galaxy Book laptops, will happen on April 14.

The roadmap also anticipates an affordable Galaxy Tab S7 Lite launch at some point in June, along with a follow-up to the cheaper Samsung Galaxy A21 phones – the Galaxy A22 and Galaxy A22 5G – in July.

Finally, Blass claimed that another phone that wasn’t on the roadmap is also slated to come out this year: the Samsung Galaxy A82 5G, a follow-up to the 2019 Galaxy A80 phone that used the same cameras for rear and front-facing shots with an ingenious flip-system. We’ve heard rumors this is coming, so it’s nice to hear support for it.
