The update for the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE started a few hours ago, now it’s the turn of the successor. The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE gets the new One UI 5 firmware based on Android 13. The update is currently available in selected markets for the international model with the model code SM-G990B.

The new build is called G990BXXU2DVK3. It comes as a 2.3GB OTA download and includes the October 1, 2022 security patch. This is far from up to date, which Samsung should correct in early December when the December security update for the S21 FE rolls out.
Anyone who owns a Galaxy S21 FE with the model number mentioned above who has not yet received the Android 13 update can, as usual, also search for the new firmware manually. Just tap Download and install in Settings > Software update. However, it may take a few days for all Samsung cell phones in the wild to show the new firmware.
