Samsung Downplayed A Report Claiming That The Company Has Stopped Producing The Upcoming Galaxy S21 FE Phone. South Korean publication ETNews claimed over the weekend that the production of this phone was stopped without notice due to semiconductor shortages and that Qualcomm processors had been reallocated to foldable devices.
