Samsung’s upcoming flip phone, Samsung W21 5G, recently got Wi-Fi Alliance certification. Now, this smartphone has also passed through the Chinese 3C certification process. The listing shows that this smartphone will still come with a 25W charging adapter (11V, 2.5A). In addition, the device model is designated SM-W2021 and it supports 5G network.
Earlier in the month, this smartphone also got a radio frequency certification. The listing shows that it supports two physical SIM cards. This will be Samsung’s first foldable or flip phone to two physical SIM cards. The other models support one physical SIM card and one e-SIM card.
Last year’s Samsung W20 5G was very similar to the Samsung Galaxy Fold. In fact, there were even speculations that it is just another name for the same model. Therefore, there is a good probability that the Samsung W21 5G will closely resemble Samsung’s latest Galaxy Z Fold 2.
In terms of pricing, as a reference, Samsung W20 5G is priced at 19,999 yuan ($2,934). Therefore, Samsung W21 5G is very likely to be priced at 19,999 yuan ($2,934) or higher.
Regarding Samsung W21 5G, some sources said it will be released on November 5. However, we can not ascertain the authenticity of this launch date for now. At present, there is very little information about Samsung W21 5G. There is also no speculations regarding this smartphone. Samsung seems to be keeping very tight security on this one. According to Samsung’s previous practice, this device should hit the road before the end of the year.
