Samsung's Galaxy S21 smartphones don't have a fixed launch date yet, but you can already reserve your spot in the pre-order line.

As noticed by XDA Developers, Samsung started offering pre-order reservations in the U.S. through its Samsung Shop app.

The app lets customers reserve their phone now, and get a $60 credit they can spend toward accessories for the upcoming phone. Samsung says the deal includes an extra $10 credit when the pre-order is done through the app. The offer "ends soon," Samsung says.

We don't officially know when the new Galaxy S21 phone will be launched, but rumors say it'll happen at a virtual Samsung Unpacked event on January 14.

We don't expect too many surprises, however. Thanks to several massive leaks (check out the early "review" below), we know pretty much all there is to know about the phones.

According to German outlet WinFuture.de, all three phones in the series — Samsung Galaxy S21, S21 Plus, and S21 Ultra — will have a Snapdragon 888 or Exynos 2100 chipset, depending on the market. The Galaxy S21 will have a 6.2-inch AMOLED display with a 2,400x1,080 pixel resolution, 8GB of RAM, 128/256GB of storage, a triple, 64/12/12-megapixel rear camera, a 10-megapixel selfie camera, and a 4,000mAh battery. The S21 Plus will have the same specs, except for a 6.7-inch display, and a bigger, 4,800mAh battery.

Finally, the S21 Ultra will have a quadruple, 108/12/10/10-megapixel rear camera, a 40-megapixel selfie camera, and a bigger, 3,200x1,800 pixel screen resolution.
