Both phones have glass-covered displays and plastic backs, a metal frame inside the device, three cameras on the back, and a main speaker and USB Type-C port on the bottom. Unfortunately, neither phone has a headphone jack or microSD card slot. Galaxy S21 (left) and Galaxy S21 FE (right) The main difference between the two is the physical size. The base model Galaxy S21 has a 6.2-inch screen, while the Galaxy S21 FE has a slightly larger 6.4-inch panel. Both screens are AMOLED, both have the same 2340 x 1080 resolution, and both have a 120Hz refresh rate – the only difference is that the Galaxy S21 FE display is larger. Other than that, the camera array on the back isn’t that obvious. Although it still sticks out from the back of the phone, like the cameras on most other premium smartphones, the color matches the case and the sides are sloping. It's not a groundbreaking change by any means, but it's still worth noting. Galaxy S21 FE Galaxy S21 FE Since the Galaxy S21 FE is slightly larger, Samsung was able to fit in a larger 4,500mAh battery (compared to the 4,000mAh battery on the Galaxy S21). The cheapest Galaxy S21 FE also only has 6GB of RAM compared to 8GB in all versions of the Galaxy S21, but the more expensive 256GB Galaxy S21 FE increases the memory to 8GB. Other than these differences, the two phones are more or less identical. They both have Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipsets in the US and Exynos 2100 elsewhere, they both have Android 12 and One UI 4, they both support 5G, and so on. Samsung Galaxy S21 vs Galaxy S21 FE: Camera The camera setup of the Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S21 FE is almost identical, with both devices featuring ultra-wide, wide-angle, and telephoto rear cameras. However, there are subtle differences between them. The Galaxy S21's ultrawide pixel size is slightly higher than the Galaxy S21 FE's (1.4μm vs. 1.12μm), so the quality is a little better on the regular Galaxy S21. The most notable difference is the telephoto camera - on the Galaxy S21 it's 64MP, but on the S21 FE it's just the Galaxy 8MP. Galaxy S21 ##Galaxy S21 FE Galaxy S21 ##Galaxy S21 FE In actual use, the photos taken with these phones are nearly identical. Even after copying them to my computer to view them on a larger monitor, I'm having trouble finding any differences between the two. The main camera performs roughly the same on both phones, although the Galaxy S21 edges it out a bit on paper and the wide-angle photos are pretty close. Galaxy S21 ##Galaxy S21 FE The only area where the Galaxy S21 FE's photos are noticeably worse is with the telephoto camera, but only in certain situations. The lower-resolution telephoto lens on the Galaxy S21 FE can still handle bright areas like the regular Galaxy S21, but if you keep zooming in (especially in darker environments), photo quality will degrade faster than on the S21.
