Wow the differences are really small. Sure in zoom and portrait shots you may notice the upgrade but in daily use most people won't notice the differences. Thx for the interesting and good comparison.
i have both models and i can say that camera, gaming, heating and battery has really improved a lot in s23 fe than s21 fe and S23 charges really fast despite 25w fast charge..
The s23 fe is noticeably better - but it really oversharpens photos which is quite a turn off for me. Also given the price tag - the S21 FE with SD888 is a steal at INR 30k (roughly $400) vs INR 50k ($600) for the S23 FE. Anyway thanks for such a deep comparison, you helped me decide clearly. Cheers :)
You can get same quality on s21 fe images esp in the front camera & low light front & back images cos this is where s21 fe camera struggles. There is a Remaster picture option which makes images more HD ... OR either in edit increase the contrast, saturation and sharpness as required to get that HD effect in images. Rest camera is great in daylight.
@@Lucy_595 idk man - I just don't think that the cost of latest ultras or pro maxes justify their cost. I mean sure they are top of the line - but 90% of the time I feel I don't have the use case to justify that amount of power. Also beyond midrangers - there is a point of diminishing returns. Paying 2-3x the amount for a 25% better phone is best case.... I just feel the midrangers are enough to fluently sail through life. Especially the SD888 S21FE which was released just this year (the year old one is with Exynos).
@AmanSharma-sn8js S21 ultra is as low as $350 now from Best buy, although in NA. It's kind of surprising the FE is pricier in India unless it's not refurbished.
@@Lucy_595 damn bruv you got lucky. Also - I misread your point a bit, I was thinking about the 22 ultra lol. But yeah 21 Ultra at that price is totally justified rn!! Sadly nobody sells it officially here in India anymore. Although I'd still not prefer the Ultra because it is a 2 yr old phone so battery and updates are a problem now - and 21 FE SD888 released just earlier this year - so its not about refurbishing - just Samsung's weird launch dates lol.
Your logic is wrong If your smart phone is 4 or 5 years old you need to consider smartphone that last longer both for update or security amd also for the feature
@@drimz2949thats true...but here in India S21FE's snapdragon version was launched this year with Android 13 out of the box. So we will get updates up to Android 16.
S23 FE is way better in everything compared to S21 FE, there's no competition unless you just want to go for the cheaper one. In that case A54 is an even better option for as low as € 390 now in Germany.
Thank you for this upload. I need a new mobile. And the camera is very important for me. I must say that you are the only one who realy know how to show the picture quality. You show the pictures for many seconds. So that the vieuwers can see the pictures very well. Other uploaders show the pictures for half or 1 second. I can barely see the pictures. I have to pause it. Sometimes it's very difficult because the pictures are only half a second visible 😱 But in your case it's no problem at all. Thank you 👍
It's getting annoying to be honest. I use s21 Fe and I used to defend the phone because I always lasted a day. But maybe it because I have 2 phones. So lately, I lean towards my S21 FE and left my other phone at home and the phone only lasted half the day. For heating it's still usable for me and not as I bother with the battery.
As of now people buy S21FE which is now almost 2 year old but still it is there but i will go for S23 FE in 2024 when its price will come down to 37-40 k
If you are on a budget, I highly recommend S21 FE now. Currently in my country, this retails at USD $444 in Samsung official stores. Display is really great and battery may last up to whole day. The plastic back is subjective depending on the person's preference - aesthetics vs durability. Since it is plastic, it may look cheap but it won't break when dropped unlike the glass back of S23 FE. Another down side is the plastic back is quite slippery so either you use a case or holders like ring or pop socket for a better grip. What I hate about this phone are the cameras, both selfie and rear. Pictures are disappointing as it is hit and miss most of the times. Saturation is quite bad especially at colors green, pink, orange, and red. It also tends to make the person a bit wider than usual. No, it's not because of the zoom feature. That's just how it processes the pictures even at normal distance (1x). I had the Snapdragon variant with 8/256 gb so I was expecting that the pics would turn out better than Exynos. 😢 Hope this helps.
been using the s21fe for morethan a year now exynos varient only complaint is battery life and heating my suggestion if you have budget then get the base s23 snapdragon verison or wait for s24
The Samsung galaxie phones of 2024 have really good camera quality in my opinion it gets better than a cam quarter if you set up the device settings all on auto, clean your phone, the side buttons and screen and camera lenses with those prescription eye glass cleaner wipes.
Your uploaded RU-vid video is poor in quality for doing a camera comparison. Both cellphone cameras take much sharper pictures than what this video is showing.
Just wait and watch, s21 fe came very far from where it was before, i have seen the improvements in my s21 fe, i bet in future samsung will improve s23 fe much further
@@andpearl899 Its Samsung choice to use whatever hardware, competitors is not going to wait for them. And is samsung giving discount on outdated hardware and performance? NOPE
