The Galaxy S21 along with the Galaxy S21 Plus and Galaxy S21 Ultra make up the 2021 S series lineup. In the US, Samsung was able to cut $200 off the price of all three phones. The company wisely moved the Galaxy S21 away from the uber-premium Galaxy S20 and closer to the Galaxy S20 FE.

#Galaxy #S21 #review #nobrainer #upgrade #phone
I got mine yesterday the phone is awesome
I love my (Galaxy S21 5G ). It woks just fine
i want to switch to a samsung s21 but i have iphone and i’m not sure how it would be like bc of the no sim card so i’m debating 🙁
No Charger box for 8 hundred dollars !
Good review. Thanks.
Compact and powerful? Plastic back may be for price or light weight? 🤔
Boost has this for sale for $500. Considering upgrading from an old s7. Although the screen on the s7 still sounds like it’s better resolution and ppi but does it really make a noticeable difference? I also like the small one handed feel on the s7. Never had a bezel-less phone. No water resistance on s21 either?
The s21 is a stripped down piece of junk.. im a big samsung fan, IOS looking better all the time.
I looked at the S21+ and S21 Ultra and found them too big to lug around everywhere.
I feel like my s10+ that’s 2 years old is still better??…
I’m between the s20fe 5g and the s21 5g for gaming. I like the fe and it has a couple things that beat the s21 like battery life but the s21 has 2gb more ram then the 20, however if the s21 runs hot after only 20 min for a game — that’s not gd
my mom have s21, im started to become jealous
Is it true that the phone overheating when using simple application or camera??
It’s the worst selling S series, down 20% from the S20 and 40% since the S10
I do not consider the removal of gorilla Glass from the back to be a compromise in any way. I personally have always thought that it was a super stupid idea. But that’s just me
I’m late to the party but just ordered the S21 to replace my S10. Looks like after all these reviews i am making a good choice. Thanks for sharing.
Lol, searching for a phone review and see this one is filmed in my hometown. Not what I was expecting to find. I think you’ve sold me on the phone though.
O body tells you you
So many people talk about the expandable storage being gone as being an issue. What do people store on their phones do require over 256gb or storage? Real question
I’ve got an iPhone 7 atm with 128gb and with 5 years of regular photos, videos and cloud usage I’ve used 40.5gb. 128 seems fine for most anyone, surely
Thinking about upgrading from my XR to an s21 and I’m still on the fence if I should do it. I’ve loved the Samsung galaxy’s since they came out, I’m just still on the fence bc I love my iPhone too
If you complain about the S21 you have some serious 1st world problems it’s a beast.
Plastic back means no qi charge right?
Hope I like this phone, it’s replacing my current S9+, which I guess is quite ‘long in the tooth’ now. Have a friend who’ll do the swap/wifi change over thing for me. Deffinatly glad to be getting a new phone, guess I bought my S9+ new (when it was actually already an old dated phone) about 3 yrs ago.
If you had a choice between the S21 or the S20 FE and you were not a ‘heavy user’ which would you suggest? Tks
It’s so expensive. But it has plastic back.L😂L
How big is the memory on this phone
I tried out an iPhone 12, I have been an Android user my whole life. I wanted to learn the iPhone os so I can perform my future career in technology better. The iPhone has some cool features, but the Galaxy does everything better. Siri is awesome, and I love the iPhone features. But the multiple irritants made me leave the iPhone behind. You have to do a special work around for a good night mode. Without applying the dark zoom filter th let screen is still blindingly bright. I’m so excited to return to the Galaxy.
And of course your phone will get hot doing a benchmark test.
Soon I am getting the Galaxy s21. It has a better Camera and even holds much more memory space than an IPhone 11 does. I have 8,000 photos in my gallery and have to Clean the storage on the iPhone every week. It sucks. Samsung here I come!
I got mine for $600 last April. In Phantom Violet.
I think 🤔 it’s a good idea phone cause I will get one and get rid of my iPhone
I have this phone and I absolutely love it 😀 😍
It looks gorgeous!
why suddenly my battery drain so fast ???
Thank you . I appreciate your unbiased review
iPhone 12 better in every way.
Very well demonstrated. You know how to deliver, unlike others that sound like a total rant. Some slight pauses are always good when talking plus the intonation of sound. Thank you.
I’m getting my new S21 phone this week and am excited about it 😁
anyone know why this pos phone wont let u add widgets to ur homesscreen lol
My man WU Tang. Now that’s rap music kids. 😂
Still have mine great phone
