Samsung had planned to launch its Galaxy S21 Fan Edition with Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset, along with a change in design and display to keep the price affordable. But the latest reports state that the launch has been canceled because of the same processor being used in the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3, the demand for which is extremely high at the moment. This has led to uncertainty in terms of the supply of 888 Snapdragon chipset, thus stalling the launch of S21FE. The desired supply of semiconductors is not possible, which is making production difficult.
