The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G in detail

How many years of updates does the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G get?

Released in January 2022, the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G gets security patches until January 2027: 5 years in total.

Among the 258 Samsung phones in our database, 161 were supported for less time and 61 for longer. The median is 4 years and 1 month.

Across all brands, the median for phones is 4 years.

Two schedules overlap here. New system versions stop in January 2026, security patches in January 2027. In between, the device stays on its last version but still gets fixes for security holes.

What should I do before support ends?

Nothing breaks on the day. The device keeps working, it just stops receiving fixes. Use the months left to back up your photos and your two-factor codes, and to compare models that stay supported longer.
