Samsung Galaxy S21 vs S20 FE 5G | 2021 Flagship or Fan Edition?

Ғылым және технология

Comparing Samsung's Galaxy S21 vs the Galaxy S20 FE 5G (or 'Fan Edition'), to see which has the best camera, battery life, performance and features. The fresh new Samsung S21 misses out on most of the premium specs found in the Ultra and in many ways is similar to the S20 FE 5G, including the UK price (£769 vs £699). However, the latest Galaxy smartphone rocks that Exynos 2100 while the Fan Edition goes with Snapdragon 865, and that has a serious impact on the battery performance.
Those camera results are also quite different. While both Samsung phones use a 12MP primary sensor, the Galaxy S21 boasts more accurate colour reproduction and stronger HDR and low light chops. You also get lots more video options vs the S21 FE 5G - but I still like last year's handset for shooting everyday photos and home movies.
That Fan Edition definitely wins for battery life, with the Samsung Galaxy S21 proving quite a disappointment so far. That Exynos 2100 struggles to keep you going all day, and loses in the battery drain test here. Thankfully gamers are well catered for by both handsets, helped by the flat, responsive screens.
Those displays are also different, Super AMOLED vs Dynamic AMOLED. You get better contrast and more natural colours from the Samsung S21 flagship, while the Galaxy S20 FE 5G won't stream HDR content on Netflix.
So which of these phones has won your respect? Let me know below, full review of the S21 coming soon!

    Well technically the S21 Ultra is the flagship. The regular S21 and Plus are basically downgraded version. They’re the iPhone version of a 12. Compared to a 12 pro.

I'm not sure how many people actually pay for a phone outright rather than get a contract in the uk, but I certainly don't have the cash laying around to pay up front for a new blower and can get an S20 fe much cheaper than a 21 on a contract and from this video I don't feel like I'll be missing out by going with the S20 fe.

    LOVED this video....great comparison and stats. It's a year later and I just updated from the S7 edge to the S20 FE 5G and was perusing videos on here with reviews. It definitely seems like I'll enjoy the features of the S20 FE more than the S21....it was the cheaper option of course and anything will be an improvement over a phone I've had for 6 years, so I'm very excited to get this in my hands in a few days. I'm hoping the reviews on the Verizon website are just repeat reviewers trying to bring down the rating, because it has 3 stars or less on there while the S21 has 4.5 stars. Of course I'm not going to take into account people whining because they dropped their phone on the concrete floor, or because it doesn't have a pulse sensor, or because it doesn't have a headphone jack, or that Verizon's service is too expensive....all of which were negative reviews on their site. But yea, thanks for making this video. I was down to one of the newer Galaxy phones and based on this review/comparison I think I'll be happy with my choice!.....also, I liked and subscribed for ya :)

She likes making videos and was very unimpressed with no SD card slot. She also liked her bigger screen on the FE.......and weirdly, the S20FE audio for some reason sounds a lot clearer than the S21, which surprised me. I think the FE is the better one of the two.

    Great comparison video, but I realised halfway through that, once again, I'm still pretty happy with my fully paid up ages ago S8+ from the dark, Neolithic times of 2017. Maybe if Samsung hadn't replaced the bloated battery and chucked a new digitizer into the bargain for free about 6 months ago, it might have been showing it's age more. However, I use it for email, photos, phonecalls (yes, I do speak to people using a phone) and messaging mainly. I guess I'm still waiting for a phone to come along that just blows my mind, a revolutionary device of some sort, but for the most part - and I guess this makes me the odd one out here - my phone is not my primary communication device anymore. With video calling, skype (yes I know but...sigh) and old fashioned email etc, I just use my phone mainly as a way of keeping tabs on my bank accounts, contactless payments and for those boring moments when you're waiting around somewhere outside the house (which is rare in these plague years - no good stalking opportunities lol) Both phones looks brilliant of course, but then almost every new flagship range is very similar, and equally excellent, it's hard to go wrong buying a new phone as long as you do a little bit of research in advance. Good times for consistent quality but we're still waiting for the next game changer to arrive.
