More details on Samsung Galaxy S21 launch timeline revealed

Samsung Galaxy S21 has been a subject to several rumorus and leaks. There have even been reports suggesting that these handsets could launch earlier than their late February launch schedule. However, a new report now gives a slightly more insight on when the new series can launch and when the handsets can possibly go on sale. According to a South Korean publication, Samsung could launch the Galaxy S21 series in mid-January and this would also mean that the handsets can hit the shelves as early as starting of February. This will also help it counter Apple iPhone 12 sales early.

This report falls in line with the recent report by Winfuture De, which claims that the company has started mass producing the smartphones already. According to a report, Samsung began the production of Galaxy S21 Ultra last week, and it plans to start the manufacturing of components for the Galaxy S21 Plus soon. Samsung is yet to start production of parts for the Galaxy S21 according to the report. The Galaxy S21 smartphones are rumoured to launch in January which is earlier than when the phones usually launch.
