According to the Samsung community manager’s post, Galaxy S21 series devices will not get the Detail Enhancer feature. The forum moderator states that the older Galaxy flagships have different NPU performance which it is difficult for Samsung to optimize Detail Enhancer.
Only after testing the Detail Enhancer on the Galaxy S21, the moderator mention that the different performance of the Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S22’s NPUs (Neural Processing Unit) was the reason why the feature was not released at the moment. Although the company is making more efforts, it is not confirmed that this feature will be released for Galaxy S21.
On the other side, there’s good news for Galaxy S21 users that the company will release Snapchat for the Samsung app soon. Nowadays people prefer to use Snapchat to click photos instead of the native camera of the phone. Snapchat offers many filters that most people like to use in their photos. The moderator confirmed that Snapchat integration is coming for Galaxy S21 users soon.

Samsung didn’t launch the Galaxy S22 FE due to the global economic slowdown. However, it doesn’t seem to be the same case for the Galaxy S23 FE as Samsung got greenlit on the upcoming model’s battery from the South Korean certification authority.
According to the info, a smartphone battery carrying model number EB-BS711ABY has been certified by SafetyKorea. The model number of the battery matches with the rumors that popped up revealing the existence of the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE.
