Samsung's latest iteration of "the idiot consumer will buy whatever we put out" certainly deserves one. Everything about this phone seems cheap. From the tacky backing, the rectangular brick like design, to the complete lack of accessories that come with the phone. The phone feels like it should be priced at $300-400 at most. I'll compare this to the S20. Which wasn't particularly great, but is better than this phone. S20 feels more premium, is thinner, and looks better. Oh yeah, and it also has 12gb of ram, compared to the 8gb this phone has. For the most part, the phones are very similar performance wise (the s21 has a faster processor, but you really don't notice it in day to day use) Both phone have relatively poor battery life.

S21 ultra 🔥 Amazing camera 📷 Amazing screen 😍 supports S pen 🖊

It's been a week since I bought S21 Ultra (Exynos) and its amazing, there are no overheating, performance or battery issues. For the cameras I'm really satisfied it's only when I watch Snapdragon vs Exynos camera comparison videos I notice the difference which is very small.

@@jianglanzi It a very old problem which Samsung doesn't fix. All the Exynos phones have stupid standby drain exactly how you mentioned. It always drops to around 80s from 100 overnight. It's a shame paying the same amount yet having an inferior experience of the same phone.

Exynos user here. Heating issues non existing since May and performance is majestic . In the last couple of months Samsung dedicated the updates solely to those problems. I bought mine 3 months after launch and never experienced any heating issues but know some that bought it at launch and yes had some heating problems. SD heats considerably still according to some youtubers. Battery is incredible giving 6.5 screen on time. Happy with 2100, a true beast and yes , Samsung nailed it with this phone.

6-8hrs SOT almost daily. All day battery even with Always on Screen, Adaptive refresh and WQHD+. I go through a lot of phones and there is no doubt this is an absolute power users dream phone. My biggest beef with it is the size, if it had a 6.4-6.5" display it would be the perfect phone for me.

Absolutely love my s21 ultra. I'm in the UK but managed to get the snapdragon version. I do get bored with phones easily but I just can't go to any other phone at the moment due to the camera and battery life. The cameras are just top, top quality. Have the 3x and also the 10x makes it possible to get so many types of shots. Even if you're not taking a photo of something really far away the 10x zoom can still give a really interesting perspective. Well done samsung.

You can change practically hoe the phone looks weather it be icons, notification panel default app colors and so on by either downloading themes or icon packs from their dedicated galaxy store or download their Good lock app. Truly in the department of customization there is no complaint, if you actually went deep down into the UI you would've probably found that out but hey you review and test many phones so understandable!

I can only get the exynos version but from reviewers in the UK they've said it performs almost the same and doesn't overheat so i guess that issue is perhaps only specific to some devices and dependant on heavy usage. If i go for the 13 pro max i will be paying considerably more for a glorified update from my current 11 pro max so i think despite the fact we get the exynos processor it's still the best phone!

Thank you for your strong points right off the bat 👏 I did stay for the entire video

Thank you for this video. Very clear and concise. You nailed one point after another without superfluous dialogue. I'm still debating the S21 Ultra v.s. the regular S21. You love the camera and gave some great pictures but how good are the telescopic features?. I'm a birder and often will see a bird without my camera with me. My existing Samsung will give me OK pictures but not always good enough for identification. I loved your photos of Newfoundland which oddly is a bonus for me getting the Ultra even though the photo locations and the camera are not inclusive. :-) You were able to get Snapdragon in Atlantic Canada?

Only Exynos available here. Will be replacing my Note 10+ with this soon. I'm eager to see the improvements. While Exynos is still behind Snapdragon in some department, i believe it's much closer this time around compared to 2 years ago.

The battery life and display and cameras make this the perfect fusion between a smartphone and a computer. I can't even imagine what the S25 will be like in four years! Samsung continues to outdo themselves!

Hi Bro, Thanks for you video... 😍😍😍😍

Hi! is there any big difference with the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra's camera?

I've had an s20fe for 6 months and an s21plus for 4 and have no scratches or dents on any of them after heavy use. Also I do use a case on them. I'm surprised so many people still scratch up their iphones and s20/s21 phones.

0:36 awesome screen! Awesome camera! Long lasting battery life!

U r superb . Go ahead Anna

I had the OnePlus 9 Pro for a few months but after a few too many gripes, I swapped it for the S21 Ultra. I'm not the biggest Samsung fan but I gotta admit, there are few things wrong with this phone. Although one thing I will disagree with you about is the battery life. I feel like it could be better. I keep my resolution at 1080p and have a pure black background. I think I just use my phone a lot. In the settings, when I check Device care > Battery > swipe right to "Last 7 days Average daily usage", I'm at 75%.

Please start a vlogging channel especially using the director view on the s21 ultra. You can use both the front and back camera if you want people to see what you see while you talk simultaneously. It’s lit

Agreed. After using the OnePlus 9 Pro and the iPhone 12 Pro Max TOGETHER with this one (I use 3 different SIM Cards) I ended up moving my primary SIM to the 21 Ultra. The iPhone lost because of the horrible notch and being too wide in format, and the 9 Pro lost because of the battery not living up to the other two, despite being the best ergonomically hands down. So, when we forgive the excessive weight and size... we are left with this winner. Please note that mine is an Exynos.

Astonishing video!

I'm not a camera engineer but it's a decision on which type of photography you want : - or you optimize the shutter lag for mooving cases - or you increase the quantity of data you take in a picture to make it as good as possible (pixel numbers for binning, sensor exposure, multiple pictures for hdr etc....). I supposed that the limitation comes from the usage of an advandced big sensor against the embedded processor of the camera. With a advanced sensor, it's hard to reduce the shutter lag. The shutter lag was as the iphone back on the s9 for exemple. In my opinion the best would be a quick press to take à short/mooving instant, and a longer press to take a better picture with an acceptable lag.

The scratches are not on the glass, you scratched the protective film applied by Samsung. You should clarify that. At the beginning, I didn't realize that there was a protective film on it, as it was applied extremely accurately and well by Samsung. if you peel off the foil, you will see that there is not a single scratch.
