I'm getting a lot of comments asking for the wallpaper - That's by the epic Gio Gargiulo (@GioakG on Twitter). He has a shared folder on Google Photos somewhere that I got it from.
@@ArcticWolf-qd6ev definitely a learning curve. After Smart Switch, the layout pretty much looks like my old iPhone for now so not making use of Android's customizability. Will get there in time, but the "feel" of using a new platform is very enjoyable!
i got a used s21 recently and it's pretty great. i actually thought this video was pretty useless until i saw your comment LOL, all of these things i knew. but it helped you get started on android! that's awesome.
LOL reminds me of this girl who posted a story about a guy on the bus taking pictures of her because his pocket was glowing. Everyone pointed out that he accidentally left his flashlight on😂
Nice review, i have S21 from 2 days and display its terrible with 1080x2400 resolution lower than S6, S7 S8 , S9 S10 and S20. Samsung support didnt even know that when i asked them. Also i cannot play videos more than 1080p in youtube can u imagine ? My S6 Edge can and difference in quality its from earth to space. In fact with S21 (not ultra) u get the display of A71 (400 euro cheap phone) Imagine playing videos in youtube at 1080p in 2021 ? Also with 1080x2400 this low resolution any photo looks worse than any other S version simply bec S6 Edge for example has 1440 x 2560 pixels, 16:9 ratio (~577 ppi density) - even higher ppi destiny can u imagine ? Im watching both of them in front of me and i cant believe how samsung can fail so bad selling u the most worst display ever from all S version cheap , low resolution, low ppi, terrible photos and video quality lower than 5 years old phone.
@@LegatoStudios if u cant make difference in quality from 1440 in youtube (which u cannot put on S21 compare to all oldest phones) and 1080p it means u have very serious eyes problem bec the difference its from earth to space
I just got my s21 plus few days ago after damaging my s10 in storm by making videos in rain lol. Thank you for uploading this video as it helped me better use my phone.
Good video. However, this is a boring phone. Same als always, not much improvement. I bought this phone but really regret it. Battery life is very bad.
Have remove animations turned on and the developer options for animations are turned off, but going back to the home screen there is an annoying animation that I cant get rid of.
I just went from a first generation pixel to this damn s21, loaded with useless bloatware. I really really really really wish I had just gotten another pixel.
Feel the same, I am just not impressed by my new S21, that's why I'm here. I thought maybe I was missing something about this "great" phone. I'm just not impressed by it. I rather have a Pixel or Motorola! 😭
@@Miranda3730 I've improved it somewhat by downloading the google phone app, messages app and clock app from the play store. Waaaay better than the corresponding samsung apps. I was getting 10 robocalls per day with the samsung phone app, despite toggling on all the blocking choices. With the google phone app, I've gotten zero robocalls. I've also downloaded all the pixel sounds, because the samsung ones are garbage. I'm gonna work on getting the pixel camera app, but that's not as easy because it's not on the play store. Anyway, it's better now, but nowhere close to a pixel.
You need to purchase either the wired headphones with c jack or buy wireless headphones and use Bluetooth. It doesn't have the actual port anymore for headphones like older Samsung phones. They went away with provided headphones as well as the charging block to (supposedly) save on the environment 😑. Which in all actuality adds to more packaging buying new headphones that have the USB-C end and more packaging when you buy your own USB-C charging block 🤔 . Stupid idea 💡 in my opinion
@@panksa7853 After having the max resolution option on the S10 and 'downgrading' these settings on my new S21, I have to say that I find it barely noticeable. The display is still silky smooth and sharp with the FHD setting and the 120hz display IMO.
Just got rid of my iPhone 11 pro max for a s21 ultra. Longest time iPhone user and I have no regrets getting the s21. Much more customization and the picture quality is unreal. 100x zoom on the camera is crazy. Only thing i miss is Imessage but I got over it in a day
It's a great video but I'm a bit worried that people really need these kind of videos instead of just scrolling through settings and actually READING 😂
@Domino some people just don't have the time or, can't read. Anyway, there is no harm watching great videos like this one just in case we missed something while reading.
