Last year was COVID and we were in lockdown, so sales tanked !! this year they maybe selling more than last (you would think so !!), but how does this years figure compare to a normal year , like 2018 before COVID!? They want people to think they are doing great for investor to keep investing. It's wordplay.

    Lots of paid comments. It's unbelievable. :-D S21 Ultra is on top. From the display, the sound, the battery, the speed ... the camera ... Oh, the camera ... !!! Friends, let someone with a degree in photography congratulate you on buying this phone. Imagine being able to frame with a telephoto lens, shoot and make video ... View content on the best display, with 120 Hz refresh ... Incomparable! Unheard of user experience. Greetings to all!

      With that ugly camera set up at the back, hey, am sorry am not the biggest fan of Samsung, though they are the best in the world right now, ps I bought my favourite daughter a Samsung A 11 last year but surely with all the money they have invested in their technological planes surely it's about time that Samsung did something about the appearance of the back of their phones, come on shock us , you are the champs make something that will make people go I want that look. Huawei and Nokia have got it, heck, someone bought a Nokia 3.4 off of seeing one in my hand, and yes the mi 10 is tempting but this Samsung look , seriously played out.

        Anonymous, 24 Mar 2021I disagree. DeX is pretty awesome and is such a fluid expe... moreI think I just bought wrong phone for myself... Probably I had too high hopes for it. I use it a lot for calls, so maybe plus version would be helping on battery side and that way overall experience would be less disappointing. My tip for people considering buying S21 would be taking into consideration plus version. In my country now you can get S21+ black for almost the same price as S21 white/violet/pink

          Andr, 24 Mar 2021I am one of those fooled S21 buyers too and this is why: I... moreI disagree.
          DeX is pretty awesome and is such a fluid experience that I often hook up to my tv and use my phone as a source for lots of content I can't find on streaming services. Samsung's implementation of the desktop experience is bar none the best.
          Wireless charging is plenty fast, Wired charging is quite quick as well but maybe not the ridiculous 0-50% in 5 minutes but still good for 90% of all people.
          Not sure why your phone is not lasting as long as the aged Redmi device you mentioned.
          You sound like a complainer.

            I am one of those fooled S21 buyers too and this is why:
            IP68 - good feature, but actually after paying ~800 Eur for the phone you hold it carefully
            DEX - why I should use it if I have laptop? is it created for people who cannot afford buying laptop? It's stupid as poor people won't buy such expensive phone too..
            WIreless charger - wired charging is still slow - why even bother with wireless?
            Reverse wireless charger - the same as above, but ok let's say good as an emergency charging...
            4000mAh battery - this is the worst... Accubattery is only showing 3712 mAh !!! using Always on display I get less battery life than my 5 years old XIAOMI Redmi Note 3 !
            Your phone companion - idea is good, but you can't transfer your files from that - only pictures, but dragging photos to computer's folder reduces image resolution and quality = useless!
            The only thing I'm happy about this phone is camera. Actually this is the reason why I bought it, however it doesn't do twice better pics for twice higher price than cheaper phones.
            ALL IN ALL - I'm very disappointed with my decision...

              I seriously think that the increase in sales is because it is endorse by this famous kpop group BTS.

                AnonD-991191, 23 Mar 2021Because the screen is now flat.You seriously think that? It's becaue people spend more time on their phones than ever before. Pandemic turned the market upside down, people are even buying computers again.

                      I hear the S21 line has a lot of glue, so it is tough to repair.
                      Still waiting for 5 years of software update.

                        It use to be the first three months now it's gone down to the first month only. I guess grading samsung on a curve is a necessity.

                                  maybe, people dont care what they buy, i came to stores and restaurants, and see people looking at the merchandises and asking either which one is the most expensive and the most sale, while the others asking for the most discounted, mostly they satisfy without knowing what they order

                                  its a good marketing ... trade the old get the new with discounted price, the rich just doesn't even care, they have theirs it guys taking care their data, they dont even care where they store their data
