Dude this is exactly what I was looking for. No long intro you went straight to the point and displayed all of the phones at once. Bravo ma dude bravo 👏👏🤘🤘🤘
Hey man! Thank you so much! I filmed this video in a freezing weather and comments like yours make me think it was worth it! Thanks again!
Watching this on my s7edge still run like a beast
I had one back in 2018. Shit got so slow so I think youre just lucky
@@mikepolupan357 It could be u that ruined it
@@Ziadgamer3218 how could i ruin it ? I used it like a normal phone. Didnt even play games on it just your usual phone stuff
@@mikepolupan357 maybe u downloaded a virus by accident
I had s7 edge to. Still my parent use it and i just can't stop loving that phone
Couldn't get a more detailed review than this. Very well done! Thank you so much!
I'm an iPhone 12 pro max user, and I've always leaned towards larger phones. However! The regular S21 looks absolutely perfect now that it has a flat display, I really do love that 6.2 inch display I imagine that it feels great in the hand and is a pleasure to use. I was a long..... time Android user before switching to iPhone 2 years ago. So, i do like checking in on the latest Androids phones too. If I had to decide between these 3 devices I know that I'd want the one with the best specs and features, but I honestly think I would end up with the regular S21, the form factor looks perfect, it's going to be nice and light, easy to use with one hand, and still big enough to watch videos on. The S21+ is tempting too, simply because of the larger, flat display. Thanks for the video.
And ... Do you regret switching to ios ?
@@ranja5962 Me? No . I don’t regret switching to iOS for a single second. I’m really enjoying iOS its such a smooth and consistent OS. And, whenever I feel like tinkering like I used to on Android I just have a tinker with the iOS shortcuts app. There are some great repository’s online for the iOS shortcuts app. There are a couple of things I do miss from Android, we’ll one feature from Android and one feature that’s Samsung specific. From Android I miss: The quick toggles on the pull down actually turning things such as Bluetooth etc completely on or Off. From Samsung devices I miss: Being able to go into the contacts app and swipe in one horizontal direction to message a contact and the other direction to call them. I really like Face ID on my iPhone too . It’s completely effortless, so much so that I don’t even realise it’s there. I don’t even notice the notch anymore. And, I love my Apple Watch. It’s great getting updates on the day they’re released too. I have to say that I do like the look of the features Samsung now has to connect with Windows PC’s so the user can use the app’s on their phone on their PC. The your phone app seems to work great with Samsung phones. I’m also looking forward to seeing what the Google Pixel 6 and 6 pro will be like with Google Whitechapel custom silicone in them. And the Pixel fold.
@@79chrisuk thanks for the reply man , personally however I can't bring myself to like Apple's products as they are expensive compared to the competition , yes it's eco system is great , but that just means buying more over-expensive items
@@ranja5962 I do agree with you. I mean Apple definitely could have made sure that the iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro max had 120hz refresh rate displays, but they knew they could get away with 60hz for another year which would make them even more money. And, there’s no doubt about it; Mac’s are over priced. The Mac mini is a reasonable price, but asking over 2 grand for MacBook Pro’s is ridiculous. I own some AirPod Pro’s too, and, whilst they are indeed very good. I don’t think they’re as good as a lot of reviewers make them out to be. And, as much as I love my Apple Watch, the fact is; it’s only as popular as it is because there’s no real competition at the moment. When Android Wear OS 3 watches drop and match the Apple Watch we might see a change. Apple do try and give people as little as they can for the highest price they can. If it wasn’t for the competition iPhones would still have a home button. I fear that a few years from now we may have two options: A Google Pixel phone or an iPhone. I hope it never comes to that because all we will get then are tiny upgrades each year for the highest prices they can charge.
@@79chrisuk Apple , google & Samsung are lucky western consumers aren't familiar with far eastern brands like vivo & xiaomi , Vivo x60 pro plus offers amazing cameras While realme gt 5g offers snapdragon 888 for 450$ . Though i believe it's just a matter of time before these companies take over if politics don't get involved , Huawei once surpassed apple and was on the way to surpass samsung , they were only saved because of American govt. Intervention
Im still using my samsung galaxy S5 until now damn i wish i had a new phone its already 2021 🥱
how's the battery holding up
@@ptescort unfortunately his phone died and was never able to answer, he walks around with a portable battery charger connected to a portable battery charger connected to his s5😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@ptescort those were the days when you could pop open the back, change the battery and bang the back on again and enjoy brand new phone performance in 2 minutes lol. I changed 3 batteries on my S4 back in the day. It still works good if you're not gaming lol
I just traded my old s7 for the new s21, it was definitely worth the upgrade!
@@jdcjeep47 They don't give jack shit for old phones. I tried to trade in my old S7 (cracked screen) only $25!
2:57 is the reason why I am going with the S21. I don't want a phablet that wont fit in my pocket for the next 5 years. Besides, as far as I know the only major difference to be concerned with is that the S21 has a slightly smaller battery (4000 mAh) than the Plus (4800 mAh) and Ultra (5000 mAh).
Thank you for making a video on this topic👍
I've got the s21 plus in silver and I've got tiny hands and it's been fine for me so far. I can use it with one hand and it's not as big as I expected. But I feel like the ultra would be too big for some people. The pink on the s21 looks sooo nice tho
Yeah the 0,1 inch is a big difference
@@gremian1988 it is big. I tried s21+ and ultra in person in store today. S21U seems alot of bulkier compared to s21+ because of that thickness it has. And although, i went to buy 21U i was unable to let go off 21+ from my head.
@@apatidar32 I recently exchanged my S21 Plus for a S21 Ultra and I have to say its ever so slightly wider but the biggest difference is the weight. The camera hardware on the ultra gives it this weird imbalance of weight making it extra weighty to hold with one hand. After several days I am now used to it but it does take time. The S21 plus felt a lot lighter.
I had the s21 in pink bc the color was so lovely , even tho i also kinda have small hands i decided to go for the s21 plus bc its bigger and i want a slightly bigger phone but still not as big as the ultra.
Hmmm its okay to change my s21 plus to a iphone 11 pro max??
Finally, Exactly the video I was looking for. Keep up the great work.
I love my s21+! I returned the regular s21 because the battery life was not good. The s21+ battery is amazing! Lasts me all day with atleast 50% left at the end of the day!
lol nice exaggeration... how is s21 "not good" but s21+ "amazing"?
@@ZombieZifiction 4000mah vs 4800mah???
@@GemsOutdoor ultra has less actual battery life.
Non of any smart phone on market last 1 day in my hand
@@ZombieZifiction Not according to several comparison tests under controlled circumstances. It has a larger battery and more efficient variable refresh rate screen, so it makes sense.
Awesome video comprision as watching with my S21 plus linus
thank you! awesome review (:
Love this ❤thank you. You make it easy to understand man
Watching this on my s8+ still run like a champ 👌🤭
My S9+ is still a beast
I also watched this on my s8+ (despite me throwing the phone from high place, everything is still good just the LCD)
@@entertainmentpurposes7617 my S9 screen was broken from 7 months ago and my step-dad didn't fix it yet😢😢
I've had my s8+ for 5 years.. It's dying sadly :(
Me too in 2023
What are the big differences between the s21+ and the s21 ultra? The screen better but it is hard to see. The camera is better for zoom but its minimal with the normal camera. However the ultra costs 300 euro's more... is this really worth it? I doubt it
Buying an S21 tomorrow. I have bigger hands, but I'm TIRED of huge heavy phones
Excellent video! Now to decide on 21 or 21+. I watched your vid on my S9 so I'm guessing either one I choose will be night and day difference haha!
Very good video! Congrats
Ačiū, Linai, už puikų palyginimą.
Amazing video Linus. I now believe the price rests on what I can afford. Not so much of a difference.
If you have a samsung trade in, you get an amazing price right now, up to $550. Plus a free samsung tile, 4 months of free youtube premium and $100 towards accessories.
@@kristelscherer1276 Wow sounds like this is an amazing offer. Unfortunately am rocking a Huawei P30 pro now. My plan is to change once I see something better and offers more than it. I thought the S21 would.
The camera's 'bump' is just grotesque on the Note Ultra and s21 Ultra. That, and a flat screen, is why I settled on the s21 Plus.
Hi, for future reference, snapdragon is available in countries other than USA & China. Most of North (and possibly even south) American markets have access to this Qualcomm's latest
I love the size of the s21 . So I'm going with it
I think ill go to best buy to see these guys in person. Best way to see it in person. Get a feel for sizes and weights.
Oh yeah definitely
I am falling for S21 for its perfect size. I have S20+ which I find to be big.
I got the s21. Best option for me. Cheaper and I don't need the ultra high specs. This phone looks pretty good for me.
The 21 ultra is a good size considering the v60 I had was bigger. I know it's not much smaller than the v60 but it feels a lot better.
How is it in the pocket?
@@cj7073 you'll notice it if you have a case on it.
@@jaysonperez3736 Sounds good. I was debating whether to trade in my S8 for the S21 or S21+. How's the battery?
went with the S21 Ultra - rocking that s-pen action!! :)
Any issues
@@nickdavis5303 Nada, works great, used to have an Asus ROG Phone 2, another great phone. Using Nova Launcher prime so I can used custom icon packs.
The screen of Note 20 is gorgeous way more better and wider, no comparison
@@raf.nogueira I have the Samsung Galaxy Z FOLD 3 now. :)
do the apps or anything look a little blurry on the ultra? they do on the plus i think i'm noticing it more because my 11 pro max had a higher resolution and my last samsung was wqhd. I'm returning it and either getting an s21 ultra if wqhd fixes this issue on samsungs or a newer iphone.
i can imagine the pixel 6 small version will have exact same front like the S21 and s21 + line
note 9 still fine by me. Expandable memory and Head phone jack is most important for me.
Everythings Bluetooth now fuck a head phone Jack and I just ditched my sd card for cloud storage u lose your phone with an sd card in it it's gone forever u lose a phone with cloud saves don't matter
@@mpoveroni You can stick to your cloud storage. $ 1,000 phones are not meant to be lost. Stick your cloud storage and ear buds where you want.
@@mpoveroni lmfao king. Sick of this headphone jack argument people can’t move on
Try the s10e, still has both of those things and I loved that phone.
i bought the s21 plus, overall i'm happy with the phone but i do notice a difference in the screen resolution when compared to my old phone..coming from a 6" screen with a QHD display to a 6.7" screen with FHD, the difference is very noticeable..that my only complaint with the s21 plus,like everything else about the phone
Thank you! I could not see any difference in sharpness in the showroom between the S21+ and the S21 Ultra, either. I could not see any difference on my Note 10+ between 1080p and 1440p. In fact it was demonstrated that 1440p is just a software gimmick and does not affect the battery life. So I bought the S21+ being smaller, more manageable, flat screen.
Do you prefer the phone over your note
@@aronwilliams6177 yes, definitely!
@@catstoriesandmore do you miss the s pen I’m considering s21+ s21u or note 20 ultra idk which to go for going from an iPhone 11 being the dummy I am I preordered the z flip but I can change my mind when I’m down the Samsung store
@@aronwilliams6177 I don't miss the s pen. I was barely using it. If you are in an Exynos region, definitely skip the Note 20 Ultra. The Exynos 990 is horrendous.The Exynos 2100 in the S21+ is pretty good. I had no problems with the Exynos 9825 from the Note 10+, either. Out of the phones you mentioned, I would go with the S21+ again. It is manageable in terms of size and weight. Note 20 U is huge , S21U is quite large and heavy and the flip with the plastic screen and the crease...and a crappy battery life...no. So I am happy with the S21+ replacing the Note 10+ : better processor, arguably better camera, better screen, 120Hz (granted I don't use it because it makes me dizzy but it is there). Cheers!
@@catstoriesandmore it’s unfortunate I want a note but shitty exynos now they fixed it but they could have easily came out with a note 21 having all the features the s21 and 21+ had
Finally I found a great video of this phones. Thank you! this one gave me all the info and also advices, very complete. I will go for the S21 🙌 it seems to be the correct one since is smaller, almost the same camera, more cheap.. all in one! . I have S8+ and is already a little bit big for me, is very easy to fell so have that in mind.
Thank you for watching! My hard work pays off when people like you find my videos useful!
how is the size comparition ? ive also just had my s8+ die on me . looking at the s21 series now
I switched from iphone 11 pro to s21 and I'm loving it. I wish I could get s21 ultra but my hands are too small
Everyone with S21 Ultra: Interesting
Not that much interesting when you compare you lose SD card storage and if they're going to take away the SD card storage than they need increase the storage itself
I actually like the s21 more than the s21 Ultra. I don't like my phone with too much cameras.
The screen of Note 20 is gorgeous way more better and wider, no comparison
Not regreting with my S21 Ultra
Intellect and a fantastic accent? *Swoon* I am trying to decide as a photographer if I should skip the mirrorless and just get the S21Ultra :) Have not updated my gear since the Nikon D7000. Why can they not just put a smartphone in a camera body already?
Hi 😊 Can you make a video On N2O please?
It's a shame you don't get more views, 218k is good, but it should be 2+ million. Keep it up!
Where are you taking these NICE pictures in the snow?
Fantastic review 👍🏼
Im using S10 5g now, I don't want to upgrade because S10 is still running like a beast however my S10 front cam failed and it's a pain without a front cam.
each one is awesome as long as it has Snapdragon 888 inside, awesome video Linus!!
This year's Exynos is fine
Awesome video, thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Watching from my S10 plus , torn between the s21 plus and the s21 ultra , don't know which one to go for
Looks wise the s21 plus looks the best
Better buying S20 Plus snapdragon version, it has 12 gb of ram, micro sd card, Qhd resolution, same cameras as S21Plus and now days S20Plus is so much cheaper almost half of official retail S21plus price.
Down in louisiana it's only 799.99 and the s21 ultra is 999.99
@Andrew Gibson Wrong, S20 Plus display is 120HZ refresh.
@Andrew Gibson Actually I have S9Plus since March 2018 and no lags yet, I buy top of the line every 3 years because then you really enjoy the upgrades but right now I am between Note 20 Ultra(before I was Note 4 user for more than 3 years) or S21Ultra but in April or May I am going to buy S21Ultra because I travel a lot internationally then I like to make videos in 4K in 60fps then recording it through all lenses are my deal but being objective between S20Plus and S21Plus, it is evident that S20Plus is better deal $😉 that's it.
@@cristianinternationaltrade9227 battery on the s21+ is way better. No adaptive refresh in the s20
s21 simple and one handy phone not too large
I actually have no problems with the size of an S21 Ultra, it is more accessible and easier to handle that you might expect it to be in your hands.
For me Samsung S21 plus is best buy
i want s21 but its battery duration wants me to skip it and forcing me to go on bigger size i.e. s21+ ..(as ultra is more big and heavy )
Yes.. that's what i did. The size didn't matter that much but this battery made a difference in my choice. What did you pick?
Is there a lot of actual difference between the battery?
@@CandiesDonuts i think there is, you should watch comparing videos
@@user-si8zm6dc9q have you bought one?
@@CandiesDonuts yes, i bought s21+ (because of the battery, not because the size)
Watching this on my Samsung Edge 6 Plus. My phone works just fine, but it's getting to the point where some of the apps don't work because the phone is 7 years old/the updates aren't compatible.
Woah, a phone can last that long? I'm on my 5 year old Samsung S8 and I thought I kept it for too long. The battery doesn't last as long anymore and I have some burn in on the screen. Otherwise I'd keep it for some more time.
@@Player-re9mo my s8+ stopped working . was okay still fir like 5 years
Great Job!
S21 is best size for me.
Battery could be better on the s21, and it could come with a fast charger I can't even buy one from any shops including samsung.. no SD card sucks aswell!?
@SouthCentral_Kid my s8+ battery was good for like 3 years ,
what abt the battery backup for each devices
I have the s21 and I have a two year old so I love my plastic back. In the past people liked glass backs because they were only the phones to have wireless charging but not anymore.
Glass does look nicer which matters to a lot of people. Although if you put your phone in a case it doesn't matter obviously
@@lovablesnowman I get that but I also don't. Lol you would think most people would prefer durability.
With you on that .. I much prefer durability
Hey Lena! How is the battery of S21?
U didn’t mention about UWB...
i just want see full resolution of ultra at 120 hz
I am looking for video recording , indoor vlog, Please tell me ghe result of video rec same or different between s21 & s21ultra?
For close recordings, S21, the smallest will be enough for your usage
I got an s21 5g and I returned it the next day because the battery was absolute garbage. I'm not sure if you need to break the battery in somehow but it went from over 60 percent to dead in 5 hours. I was on KZhead music for maybe an hour at most. My lg g8x thinq lasts from 15% to 3% for 5 hours.
My phone (iPhone 6) is 7 years old. I want S21+. Because this phone larger than other phones and usefull. I hope buy S21+.
The screen of Note 20 is gorgeous way more better and wider, no comparison, 20 Ultra is way more better, even losing never noticed little milliseconds in processing power
I still have the s10 plus. I think it's not the right time to upgrade yet.
Watching on my S20 FE with Snapdragon and memory expansion option...and several hundred dollars left over 😁
My S20 FE was faulty from user experience traded in for S21 256gb option
Best comparison 👌 well done. I enjoyed it. I want S 21 ultra oh God who will buy this for me as Xmas gift 🎁 🙏 😅 😭
Me watching on my s7 edge :) I Think its Time for a Upgrade
Maybe next gen when Android 12 is available
I'm using my s7 edge before, but after changed to s21, I feel I did a great choice
Umm.. Im not sure what you mean about hard to tell the difference in screen sharpness.. the Ultra was clearly better and sharper looking.. I can't be the only one who noticed that.. I am on an OLED 4k laptop screen viewing so maybe that helped..
I love s21 ultra screen
How are you getting 6-12 hours of SOT on S21? I don't play games just a bit of you tube, whatsapp and I hardly get 3-4 hours SOT before battery dies. I am using exynos version.
Depends on the usage pattern. Try to search for tips what to disable to make your phone run longer. Syncronisations etc. can drain the battery easily. I wouldn't put much trust into 6+hours cause it requires much tweaking and disabling apps in background.
I'm considering getting the S21 ultra for its zoom and HD night/low-light concert photography and video. Is that a good pick or any other suggestions?
I am in the same debate but im quite young so its gonna be a nightmare to figure out a moneymaking method that can get under like 4 months or so
Late to watch because my niece use my phone for her online classes, but still the great comparison I like the S21+ is better for me.👍🔥
I chose s21 because of small size.
Daddy
Are you happy with the battery life? How long you can use the s21 without charging?
I found a discount and the s21+ (128gb version) is 857E (50E cheeper than normal S21). This price is in România and the launch price was 1100 E. It's worth the money?
I wanna see A71 5g vs S21 plus. Is it worth the upgrade?
Should upgrade too ultra
It's a decent upgrade, but I'm not sure I'd upgrade already. Are you happy with the A71? The 120 Hz display makes a huge difference in smoothness, even though some people don't mind the difference, so it's worth checking in person first. Performance is also better. The A71 isn't a bad phone itself, so it's up to you whether you find the improvements enough to justify the extra costs.
I have the s21 plus and I love it best phone I've ever had to be honest
Thnx
S21 plus Best 👍
I'm so pissed about the side difference
Samsung made a downgrade, there plus and s21 have 1080p displays when the samsung s20 and ultra had 1440p, and they took away the cool edge screen, and they gave there new phones less ram and no memory card, and no charger brick
Anything works for me
battery life s21>>s21 plus>> s21 ultra ? sot 13>12>11 ?
I was suppose to buy s21 plus cause the screen is alright ang has color purple . But end up buying s21 ultra cause theres no more stock for 21 plus. Didnt regret buying it though. Worth the purchase
It's my daily driver since making this video!
I've been thinking about trading my 21 ultra for the 21 plus because I don't like that the screen protector on the ultra is plastic. It's blurry and damages easily
Idk if I should get the s20+ or the s21 or s21+ Im legit stuck on these three lol HELPPP PLZZ
IMO S20 plus is just right
S21+ definitely!
S21+!
Have u made a choice yet? Lool
Its good for you because you are in CHILLING (ICE) zone. Come to HOTTER PLACE and all this are burning....
is s21+ too big? im so confused between s21 and s21+. I'd go for smaller s21 in a heartbeat if it hard glass back and a silver colour dang it
I wouldn't say it's that big. You should check these phones in real life (how they look in your hands etc.) I can't say that it's so small, It's little bigger than s21
What is wrong with plastic? It is a premium plastic plus more durable if you drop it
nice video mate
Anything bigger than 6.2 inches seems way too big. A deal breaker for me.
In my ultra i do not use qhd resolution -battery drain. I afraid to buy because of size but it is not as big as I worried. Silver which I took is nice looking one.
Me too lol
Yeah I would recommend only using the max resolution for movies or videos. I use 120hz at 1080p. Still looks nice.
I choose the Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus and Galaxy S21 Ultra
It's all about compromise these days with Samsung
Compact - later corrected - compact according to today's sizes😂
Still using my Galaxy S6 😆
I want S21 Ultra + Flat Screen.
2:08 I'm actually seeing smooth swapping with 60 fps video or my eyes tricking me?

Better Explain dude
Is it still worth to buy in 1 or 2 years later?
Absolutely!
"Money" Galaxy is the best!!
