As per TENAA, the Galaxy S21 FE will pack a 4,370mAh (minimum capacity) battery, although Samsung is likely to market it as a 4,500mAh battery.

Additionally, the listing suggests the Galaxy S21 FE will slightly more compact than its predecessor. The phone is said to measure 155.7 x 74.5 x 7.9mm. For reference, the Galaxy S20 FE measures 159.8 x 74.5 x 8.4mm.

The Galaxy S21 FE was expected to debut at Samsung’s Unpacked event next month, alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3. Due to the global chip shortage, however, Samsung has reportedly delayed the launch of the phone until October. While the North American variants of the phone are expected to have a Snapdragon 888 chipset under the hood, international variants are rumored to use the same Exynos 2100 chipset as Samsung’s best Android phones.
