Galaxy S22 vs Galaxy S21 FE: Which Should You Buy? (Review) 

if you enjoyed the video, don't forget to like and subscribe😁👍🏾

Thanks for actually DECIDING on which phone you thought was better. A lot of times, a reviewer comparing two phones will just conclude with "Well, it depends on what you want in a phone." Great work!

You just got a new subscriber and the reason is simple. Straight to the point, comparing what is important, no special effects in videos, just pure phone comparison. It is nice to see something refreshing in tech videos. Keep up the good work!

Great! I've been watching this review for galaxy S21 FE couple of times and now I'm watching it with my new Galaxy S21 FE 🤩

The S21 FE really does have a gorgeous display, Samsung really gets their displays right, much more than other phone makers today. Even the A53 (a mid-tier "value" phone) has a fantastic Super-AMOLED with 1080p, Samsung makes sure that none of their users feel like what they're seeing from their phone is inferior to other phones in the Galaxy series. I will say, though, that coming from the S10e (which had I believe a 5.8 inch display), the S21 FE definitely feels a bit too big to use comfortably in some "long term" situations, like watching a show in bed, or holding the phone for a long period of time while commenting on social media. The weight and the length of the phone in particular feels a bit too much to handle even for a taller guy like me. In the mid-2010s, these would have been labeled "phablets" (hybrid of phone and tablet) and been marketed separately from "regular" smartphones. Seems like we all have to use tablet hybrids now lol. I would like to see a better effort to release phones with under 6 inch screens for people with smaller hands (or who want a better one-hand experience with the phone). That all said, I absolutely love my FE, super fast and everything runs like you would want it too. A fantastic, seamless experience.

The only thing that i love in s22 is the size And happy to see lot of s21 fe users S21 fe is the best value right now Great review 👍 keep going ❤️

Actually a great review. Stright to point, no bs, simple and esthetic.

Loved your presentation of both phones !! You were clear ,straight to the point . You did a great job! You are appreciated for your work. Keep it up

I am soooooo glad I took time to watch this!!!!!! I will defiantly go with the 21 FE. Thank you for your help!!!!!!!!!

I've chosen s21 fe over s22 because it has bigger battery,screen,price (got it for 330 $ on my mobile carrier with discounts and fidelity bonus and i updated my data plan to an 5g one)and more important i've always prefered the snapdragon chip over the exynos one(in my country,the s22 lineup comes with an exynos chip).Maybe that's why s22 became so buggy after one point.I'm super happy and super satisfied to have this phone for this price.

I subscribed after this review. It was great. Exactly what I needed. None of the other reviews for these phones on RU-vid hit like this one. I was considering upgrading my S21 FE for an S22 as it will cost me nothing but after this I'm gonna stick to my S21 FE

Great video man and thanks for staying true and deciding which phone you liked 👊🏽 thats a sub from me.

Great review! I like how you *actually* describe your experience with things like battery life. Subscribed!

I've seen few videos on the comparison comparison these 2 this one seems most in depth and better!! Thanks

Great video and I can't believe I forgot to subscribe to your channel. This video was well done and the comparisons were presented well and accurately. It was your video on the S22 Plus that made me buy it and I love it. I've been wondering about the S21FE and how it really performs. I had the S20 FE and it was a good phone for the price, but the cameras and software and how they were processing photos was horrible. So I sold it, thank you again for this video and what you do! 👍

Cracked the screen on my a71, got the s21 FE. Very happy to have fingerprint scan, wireless charging, and water proofing. The 5g when available is sweet too. The price was great too.

Thanks for the video and great review, i went for the S21 FE with 8gb ram 256gb

thank you Errol spence that was a great review more power..

Subscribed man such a good content ❤️

Nice, intelligent review my guy. I'll be coming back on my next phone purchase.

great comparison thanks

Thanks for letting me get a good look at both. In my area, the S22 is available onlile at the same price of the S21 fe snapdragon version, so I am going with the much stable 888 variant of S21 fe. I heard that the 8 gen 1 chip has overheating issues, you just confirmed it.

Good review, thanks. You helped me make up my mind

I'm watching this from my S21 FE and I absolutely love it. I bought it yesterday thanks to you :)

Naseem, really nice job reviewing! You helped me make up my mind quickly - which is no easy task. Keep doing what you are doing you have Talent my friend!!!

Beat review of phones i have seen ina my lifee.💯 keep it going..great work.

This is the best comparison I've watched so far 👍

Your video helped me to decide which one to buy, going with the S21 FE!!

Useful comparison bro! Thanks! Just ordered an S21 FE

As a value proposition the S21 FE wins hands down. I picked up a new factory unlocked 8 256 model from Amazon for $670 for my son. Great phone. Wish I would have bought myself one instead of my Pixel 6.

our video was informative and detailed which I liked very much. I am motivated in improving my product reviews as well to go a bit more into it like you did. I subscribed so I can watch your future videos.

Just bought an S21 fe and I'm so excited because of this video... I was nervous that I didn't make the right choice but this changed my mind ... thank you so much ❤

Great review. I was suggested the s21 fe but wasn't sure. I appreciate you covering on which one is hotter when used. Thanks for laying out all the features I was looking for.

Very well explained. Keep it up Max

Very helpful. Thank you!

I love your comparison video bro! Fantastic job 👍

I have the exynos s21fe and the throttling issue is just bogus. The heating issue might be more noticeable because of the plastic back compared to glass on competitors. The temp goes around 40-43°C max,which has become a norm with other android phones , the competitor SD888 also had serious heating isssue only thing it differed was its performance stability even with heating. Heck, even a PC/laptops heats up with that amount room and cooling systems ,so we might just consider android phones as their computing chips has reached a plateau at this point and heating is bound to happen with that compact form(apple is killing it in heating and performance stability control🦾). Do you think maybe phones should now start focusing more on software/optimization rather than the highest end hardware/chip as a chip from even 2 years back can almost do most task of current one's.

Watching this on my galaxy s9+, my s22 in phantom white arrives tomorrow. Great video, keep up the good work.

Naseem, great comparison video review - thanks for posting it. 👍 At the moment I'm trying to decide between the S22 and the S21 FE. Based on a 24 month Fido (Canada) payment program, the S22 would cost me an extra $5 per month as compared to the S21 FE. Both phones have 128 GB of storage. Do you think the 8GB of RAM on the S22 is much of a deciding factor when you compare it to the the 6GB of RAM on the S21 FE? Thanks, Richard

Thanks for the review.. Is the S22 with snap dragon SOC?

Thanks for this. Very comprehensive and informative. It helped me a lot

Thank you so much, finally a review that this old Aussie grandmother can understand, particularly loved your side by side comparisons they helped tremendously. Just wanted to say thank you :) have a good one

I agree with you. Thank you!

Thanks for the review. It was just what I needed. P.S. You have an amazing smile.

good video. Just some advices: - your voice should louder and clearer - you should place some caption heading during your narration

Great honest review and a wise compare those two phones.Thanks

Yo, this video was SO helpful. I'm trying to help my wife choose between the two and this really broke it down perfectly. Another great video, thank you!

Hey Naseem, great video! 👍 Could you please do a battery comparison between the S21 FE and the S22 Plus? They both have a 4500 mah battery with a slight difference in screen size, so it would be a good comparison between value and specs, thanks !

Great informative video! Thank you!

Overall I liked the way you gave your opinion on which phone you think is worth it. Now I have made my decision on which phone I should buy

Thanks man I own S21 FE and I was planning to buy S22 but your video made every thing clear that I don't need an upgrade maybe I should wait for galaxy s23

LOVED YOUR REVIEW. you deserve more subscribers. i am now an owner of S21 FE!! all the best

great video!

My gf took the S21 FE, is absolutely happy with it and also got the galaxy buds 2 in the package. The S21 FE has a Snapdragen 888 CPU and the S22 is only available as Exynos version in our country. She's absolutely satisfied with her decision. She doesn't have performance or heat issues. The cam is really great. Nothing to complain about. I really can confirm the results in your video. Good job, man.

One of the best reviews...would like to see the S22+ but presume similar to standard S22 in general performance. Currently on an S10+ which is a great phone - so was in two minds between the S21 FE, S22+ and even the iPhone 14plus....seems the s21 FE is the best of the three. This review was good in highlighting specific pros and cons not seen in many other reviews. Finally deciding to go for the S21 FE 5g 👍

Brother, few important mentions. - The screen difference is glaring in your side by side. S22 is far superior in terms of color, contrast and quality (DO NOT compare screens with ambiental light on) - In games: you do understand how form factor works, right? S22 is exponentially smaller than the S21 FE thus making it more prone to overheating due to its compact form. You can't just say "for whatever reason". No, the reason is the fact that it's way smaller. How is this difficult to understand? - S21 Fe battery will last you longer; of course it will. It's a 4500mAh battery vs 3700. And the S21 FE screen is of lower quality and brightness. You're just reading a spec-sheet at this point. You're missing the point of the S22. It's a smaller form factor phone with higher end features and build quality. - Regarding speakers: you really have to get your ears checked. The S22 kicks Iphone 12 max pro's ass which was touted as one of the best sounding smartphones in recent years. You can't possibly be serious about a budget Samsung phone being better than that. Also, it's about the sound quality, not volume nor any other frequence being thrown at you, like bass, mids or highs. - regarding the camera im not even gonna talk about it. i'd be wasting my breath.

thanks you have done a good job

Thank you for this video. This helped me with my decision 👍

Thank You! Exact comparison I was wishing for. Great video! 🥰

Great video much love

Good review. Im currently having Samsung Note 10 lite and caught in between samsung S21 fe and S22 for an upgrade

Great review! I was really planning to get S21 FE but I was a bit hesitant because of S22, but thanks to your review I guess I'll be buying the former

Tnanks for your review

I bought the S21 FE last May and felt that the overheating issue is disturbing. So far I had 4 updates and the recent being 27 July 2022. Overtime, the overheating problem has improved and hope it will no longer cut off during videocalls due to overheating.

Great video, once again

Thank you very much!

Hello Naseem great review 👍, about s22 heating issues now that samsung has given some updates is it now better or still same as before? Please help. Because I really wanted to but s22 becaus of its small size and good performance.

Watching from my S21 FE. Definitely a great choice which is also a longterm device

Thanks, i was searching for this lol

would like to see a day in the life video with the S21 FE if possible

Bought unlocked from Best buy 3weeks ago unlocked for wife with tax $529. Think good deal compared to price of many midrange phone's costing $3-$400 and change. Did have to use battery saver and couple tweeks to keep her from complaining bout battery drain though. Works well now!

Thank you!

Hasta con Exinos en mi S21 fe me siento satisfecho.. Excelente dispositivo y muy buen review

I was using the S21 FE and then upgraded to the S23 Ultra. I then returned it and went back to the FE. The Ultra is nice, but the main drawbacks were weight, as this sucker is massive heavy, and screen size. It really is close to trying to carry a tablet. The battery is just as good as the FE. I just decided I liked the smaller size phone and I can put it in my pocket without it pulling my shorts off. Yes... I was coming out of Aldi with bags of groceries and the weight of the Ultra pulled my shorts down. So it was returned to it's creator! I'm happy with the FE speeds and battery life. With power saving mode on I get about 2 days with moderate usage. And I love using DEX to mirror to the computer!

Thank you brother.

I just bought the s21 fe and upgraded from the iPhone 8, it has been really great so far and when I get home I still have 19 percent remaining

s21 for me, i need that bigger screen, and any updates is extra minimal.

I really have to say thank you :)

Both of these phones are great phones just get the one that you want. This is a good review but like most reviewers you know they pick these little things that are so incidental apart you know to say there's a camera on this one's better than the camera on that one in the dynamic range is better than the dynamic range on the other they're in perceivable to most people get the one that you can afford and be done with it and be happy they're both great phones. These verses videos you know one phone after another phone against another phone against iPhone against Samsung against pixel is ridiculous sometimes

definitely s21 fe should be bought. It is much better when we compair with price. Don't need to give that much money to have this small changes. Also i liked s21 fe camera more. Only thing i liked s22 is design and screen looks a little bit more contrast but bigger screen is always better for my opinion.

Thank you so much.

Which colour should i take of s21fe black or olive ?

Great deals on the S21 FE right now on black friday! $14/month for 24months which equates to a total of $336 over 2 years. Plus this deal comes with a $300 gift card to best buy. Plus $50 cash back for trading in my S9. So they're essentially paying me $14 to upgrade my phone LOL.

excellent. thx

Good review, man👍 greetings from Ukraine.

I'm not a Samsung user, but my wife is. She has an S10e and really likes the small form factor, but it is time for her to upgrade, and it's the smaller size of the S22 that she really likes, and with 4 years of software upgrades, that is the one she will get.

Thanks, this comparison was very useful! I had the chance to test both in a store and the S22 seemed slower than the S21 FE. Don't know whether it was the Exynos processor's fault. Currently debating between the S21 FE and the Pixel 7 but I'm really afraid of the fingerprint on the Pixel being trash and not having to put a case on the back is definitely a plus.

decided if i wanted an s21 or s22, i decided for s22, since i can have it for one more year after support ends for the s21 as i buy a new phone every 3-4 years

Bro,you refer haptics to smoothness of display.Haptic motors indicates vibration intensity and quality of vibration.

Do you have Exynos or Snapdragon version of S22? I have same heating issues when I use it more then a few minutes outside or taking some pictures with camera. It quickly gets 45°C and it is very hot so it is now enjoyable to hold anymore.

thank you boi , I was about to buy s22 now shifted to s21fe

don't you think the s21 fe display has less color saturation than the s22 ? i have both s10e and s21 fe. and after comparing it side by side i noticed that my s10e has much brighter white and more vibrant color overall

Honestly depends on what Promotion Carrier has. I was able to get $400 Trade in Value for my Samsung S10 for Galaxy S21 FE so my cost ends up being $200.00 the S22 or the S23 Now would not provide that much trade in.

I agree with u bro

Beautiful phones, good review

Last fall I was selling an A53 and someone offered me a Galaxy S22 in exchange. I asked the person why he'd change a flagship for a cheaper phone, He said, he needed a phone with better battery life, so I think the S21 FE is manageable with charging it once a day. One of my family members here has the S21 FE and it performs well, battery lasts about a day n a half.

Im just happy that my s21 fe camera can head to head with s22

4:40 that algorithm working for the user my man

hey, I really liked the way you elaborated. but the thing is with freedom(Canada) s21-Fe is $4/month and s22 is $7/month. I am hell confused, I think s22 would be nice but s21-Fe kinda gives a nice competition.

What's the screen on time of the s21fe? I get good battery life on my s22
