This decision makes the South Korean technology giant the latest major OEM to decide to participate in the 2021 Mobile World Congress. Earlier, Sony, Ericsson, Nokia, and several technology manufacturers confirmed that they did not participate in the actual MWC 2021 event.

Since the company does not participate in face-to-face events, it can hold a separate launch event for these upcoming devices.
