Samsung Galaxy S21 Leaked Case Renders Show Unique Rear Camera Module Design

Samsung Galaxy S21 case renders have surfaced online, offering a glimpse into the possible design of the smartphone's rear camera module. The images also show that the smartphone will come with a flat display. As per the renders shared on Twitter, the flagship handset will have three rear cameras lined up in a vertical fashion, with the LED flash placed adjacent to the camera module near the top. The renders also suggest that the volume rocker and the power button will be on the right side of the handset.

As per the renders of the Samsung Galaxy S21 cases tweeted by noted tipster Ice Universe, first spotted by SamMobile, the smartphone's rear camera module has a new design element. Instead of having a rectangular/ circular-rectangle shape, two corners of the module have chamfered edges. The camera sensors are placed in circular cutouts in a vertical fashion and the LED flash is placed adjacent to the top-most camera. The physical buttons are seen on the right side of the frame.
