Samsung won't be happy about the latest @evleak courtesy of Evan Blass, but it's a godsend for the tech blogosphere, as it fills the last pieces of the Galaxy S21 series puzzle by listing each and every technical detail in a comparison straight from Samsung's the horse's mouth.

In what looks like snaps from the official Samsung website dedicated to the Galaxy S21 models that will pop up for the general public tomorrow, Evan has listed all there is to know about the earlier-than-usual 2021 Galaxy S line release for which you can register below.

While we do have Galaxy S21 vs Galaxy S21+ and Galaxy S21+ vs S21 Ultra comparisons, this is the first time all three S21 series phones get compared directly and, well, semi-officially.

What else do we learn from this copious leak? The S21 is shoehorned in Samsung's Glasstic body (that's why it's so light in comparison) but built on the same metal frame as the rest. It also doesn't have the UWB tracking abilities of its larger siblings, while the S21 Ultra is the only one supporting the newest Wi-Fi 6E standard.

About the only thing left to learn now is the US pricing of these puppies and exactly what Galaxy S21 preorder bonuses there will be, but let's leave at least something in the dark now, shall we? Oh, yeah, what's in the Galaxy S21 series box? Nothing, just the phone.

The S21 models would indeed come with no charger ot earbuds
