When foreign guys say phones are now cheap, I hate the fact I live in Nigeria. Bro! The price is still so high here. Poor exchange rate. Well nice review brother!
Same here in Algeria the phone is around 250usd which isn't a lot for a 1st world country , but for me in order to earn 250 dollars i have to work hardly for at least a month without spending a penny . May god help us it's really sad
OMG how is the S21 going for you so far? How are you liking it? I'm also looking for an upgrade from the Galaxy J7 Prime too from 2016 or 2017 I can't remember so I've been doing a lot of research to find one that suits my needs.
Been using the s21 ultra since launch. Just got my gf a pixel 8 for Christmas and it's actually freaking awesome. If anything happens to my s21 ultra I'm probably getting a pixel 8. Lol
@yourcaustic I don't look at phones until I need a new one, so I'm not a good person to ask. Just stay away from 🍎 phones. Also, I broke up with the gf so don't know how the pixel 8 is doing. 🥺
I just bought a new s21 last week. upgraded from an s8 active. couldn't have picked a better upgrade path. it even feels very much the same as my old phone. for the record, yes it can play the new resident evil remakes lol
Hi I own an S21 128 GB and I thought about upgrading but very hesitant bc my phone performs still very well and there are no major differences between the latest phones. This video justified my thoughts. Thanks! haha
There's really no need to upgrade from s21 to s24. S21 receives updates that the s24 does, including AI features. I have received those updates already on my s21
@@syncronate It only gets hot when I play demanding games or record in 4k (or 8k) for extended periods of time. It's never an uncomfortable amount of heat, but it is very noticeable.
Let's face it, you're probably watching this because the hinge on your Flip 4/5 has broken your screen or you're just experiencing a green line screen issue and the S21 is a nice cheap replacement
If you are wondering whether to get one, i say dont, especially if you get the exynos chipset. Ive had mine for 3 years and the screen is laggy and unpleasant, the battery sucks to put it simply, the processing of images, and the camera performance itself has gone down and its not a great experience. I will be upgrading from it in a day or so but keep in mind that ive had it for 3 years. If you want a future proof option, go for something new like an iphone 14 or s23 or even s24 if you can.
Hey! I want to get this too, wht do u say?I don't do much gaming or recording,I use RU-vid,twitter, insta,WhatsApp and sometimes click pictures, do u think I should go for this in 2024 or buy the Samsung galaxy a35 ? Which one do u think is a better option ?
@@Zunaira38 it's smaller than my A13, but it's pretty damn good for what I use it for. Hell of a lot faster too. Mainly YT Shorts, Spotify, and some other misc. apps. Only real issue I have is typing because Im used to a bigger screen. Otherwise, it's fine AND has speakers top and bottom. No headphone jack though. Wireless charging as well!
Yeah that's about my gripes with the phone. Screens smaller so I'm constantly correcting my type-o's and there's no headphone jack. Otherwise, I love it.
Spot on! people should concentrate on real features that are need by a "phone" instead of having an ipad as a phone! totally spot on. I myself have a mate 10 pro which is still fantastic, unfortunately as usual the fact that it's no longer supported with upgrades puts it off the shelf, polluting the planet for no reason whatsoever. Crazy world we live in to be honest.
my s21 camera feels a little downgraded after so many updates. I feel original camera or after 2 3 updates was better. Anyone has same problem or has any solution?
I bought Samsung S21 as back up and yes, it is still working smoothly but the only problem is connectivity to Data Network especially if you are off grid or working in remote areas. It's a shame because i have to pull out my sim, insert it on my POCO X4 GT then hotspot it with my SAMSUNG S21 phone. So i guess, the solution is to buy a pocket wifi if you have a SAMSUNG phone!
Hi dude here with an S21 5G 128 GB and ngl this phone has been decent. It's really good and although the battery has gone a bit down, it's still pretty good. Recently, my dumbass broke the charging port and now i think I've been planning to switch to an S24 Ultra fot highschool.
I have S21 and been using it for 3 years now, just ordered S24 and see if its good upgrade or not. To be fair i can't even use regular S21 with one hand :)))
it's still worth it using in 2024. i've been using my s21+ exynos ver. since sept 2022 which i bought directly from samsung website for only U$373 brand new. Battery life last a whole day and camera still takes better photos than the iphone 15.
Hi guys..any help? My s21 ultra is still showing android verison is up to date on "android 12". Please, how can i update manually on pc? I've tried and failed, it feels so out dated, its so frustrating! Its a 512gb/16gb am not thinking of changing yet, i just wanna update the software gosh!🙏🏿 Thanks!
My mother has the s21 ultra and thats why i am thinking to get s21 and trust me s21 ultra js way better. And if you want a good phone in 2024 and you have 300-400 dollara just go for it. And if you have 200 dollars go for s21 botbe phones are great
0:47 wrong. It's not the same size as the iPhones 1:16 I disagree. The S21 Ultra is actually very easy to use with 1 hand. It's tall and narrow. I prefer narrower phones because it's easier to use with one hand and easy to swipe your thumb across the whole screen. Unlike the new wider boxy shaped Ultras that are actually very uncomfortable to hold.
As someone who has been using samsung for 13 years now including Gio, S3, S6 Edge, S8, A71 S21, and currently S23 Ultra, The S21 has been the most dissapointing. The battery life was terrible, couldn't really use it with 120hz because of the drainage. My suggestion is that do NOT buy it especially the exynos model
S21 exynos here . Stll getting 5:45 he sot if u know how... EXnoss has a bad modem which consumes a lot of battery when changing 4G or 5G bands. If you lock band you can get up to one and half hours of extra screen on time.
Been an s8 user for 7 years but my phone died few days ago. R.I.P. What's the best S series I should go for? This exynos thing is really worrying. Should I just get S20 fe? and avoid exynos like plague? Edit: wait, even the s8 uses an exynos? Is it a specific later type exynos that's problematic?
@@junbin3950 Hi, gottq say the s8 was great with exynos! The problem with the newer phones is mainly the power hungry 120hz display. The s20 fe is great value for money but i suggest to buy a s23 since lot of issues have been fixed with these.
Hi bro,I have a S21+ gifted from my brother but idk what happened but suddenly its screen stopped showing anything and got black. Samsung Authorised Service Center asking for 200$ and giving me screen and back glass replacement. What should i do ?? 3 month warranty also included
@@bitslay I m talking About the Samsung S21 FE 5G it launched in Jan of 2022 a Year later of any other S21 series phone due to covid, it was forced to launch the S21 FE 5G late www.google.com/search?q=S21+FE+5G+it+launched&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
