Samsung Confirms: Galaxy S21 FE Will Have Dual SIMs in US
Updated 1/4/22: Samsung contacted us to clarify that it cannot provide a specific timeline for launching the dual-SIM functionality, even on the phones with dual physical SIMs. Samsung’s Galaxy S21 FE is hitting the US market with an extremely rare feature: dual physical SIM card slots, letting you have two mobile subscriptions at once—at least in theory. Instead, US phones have been turning to embedded eSIMs that let you load a second subscription from a menu or a QR code.
For people in some other countries such as India and Italy, dual SIMs were long about taking advantage of promotional pricing or in-network calling discounts on prepaid carriers, which is less relevant here.

Samsung Galaxy S21 FE Review
Samsung’s Galaxy S21 FE brings a critical niche feature to the US: dual SIM card slots to let you carry two cellular subscriptions at once. But considering it’s so similar to the previous model and coming out so close to the Galaxy S22 launch, it’s hard to recommend unless you’re specifically looking to buy a dual-SIM phone. The Galaxy S21 FE comes in four attractive colors: dark gray, green, purple, or white. The phone sports an IP68 waterproof rating and has a 6.4-inch, 120Hz 2,340-by-1,080 display with an optical fingerprint sensor underneath. Just like the Galaxy S21, the S21 FE uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor and runs Android 12 with Samsung’s usual extensions. The phone appears to be more aggressively thermally throttled than other Samsung models we’ve tested recently. In real-life use, the S21 FE got noticeably warm when playing the extremely high-powered mobile game Genshin Impact, and while the controls were very responsive, we felt like the frame rate was slightly jerkier than it should be. We get the feeling that some software optimization is still needed, but that’s what happens when you test a phone before it launches (the S21 FE officially hits store shelves January 11).

We recently benchmarked Google’s Pixel 6 Pro against the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, which uses the same Qualcomm modem as the S21 FE. The S20 FE fixed that, six months later, delivering a reasonably priced phone that worked beautifully.
But the S21 line was terrific, and the S21 FE is coming out right before the S22 launches; the current expectation for the Galaxy S22, which may have a $799 base model with mysterious, fancy new features, is February. If you’re reading this in January and are shopping for a Samsung phone, our advice is to hold tight and wait for the S22 launch. Then we’ll see what new features the S22 family has to offer and how prices on used S21 units drop, potentially below the $699 the S21 FE lists for. That said, the Galaxy S21 FE is a perfectly good phone, and if you need to use two lines at once, it’s currently the only dual-physical-SIM flagship designed for US networks.

Just an idea but maybe if you weren’t so focused on releasing a new phone every year like some big automaker and allowed your team of engineers some time to create, go in depth, and test new features, especially in real-world settings, I belive your phones would skyrocket in quality and bring the Samsung name back to being known for amazing and reliable electronics.
