We thought we knew everything about the Samsung Galaxy S21 series, but a new and worrying detail has emerged recently.
Winfuture, who had leaked the full spec sheet of the devices recently, have now added a note that the European version of the device will not have a storage card slot.
Roland Quandt, from the site, tweeted:
S21 spec sheets say:
memory card reader: "No"Some markets might still get a charger in the box though, while others don't.

We have heard reports that some regions will get dual-SIM support while others will get a combination SIM card slot and microSD card slot. For now what you get appears to be the luck of the draw, though new leaker Tron (previously Cozyplanes) tweeted earlier:
