    The Android Freak, 11 Jul 2021Snapdragon 720G and snapdragon 732G were far better than this. Exy9611 is more of SD6xx competitor.
    It has slighlty less performance to SD678, similar performance to Helio G80 and slightly better than SD662

    Considering its attached to Samsung M21 (Amoled+9611) which is priced $160 in my country, its a freakin killer combo.
    It have the pretty close value/price ratio to Redmi Note 10 (Amoled+SD678) which also sold around $160 in my country

    Tough rather unfortunatly to reach this price point samsung have to mass produce Exy9611 and attached to everything which makes the higher model have less comparative SoC performance/price

            Samsung literally rebranding the exact same phone since M30S in 2019, lol

            It's a good phone though. I'm using M21 and don't see any complains.

                  lovely. I've probably made some mistakes too because that's how garbage android vendor's naming schemes are today

It's a whole other level of effery to put in tracking ads in an app that's also supposedly a malware scanner + cleaner.

                      And yes I also am aware that Redmis are well supported with custom ROMs but NO... nowadays ROM devs just lack the patience and quality, rushes out initial builds + device trees only for teams' bragging rights, kernels with too aggressive throttling that gives bad batt life and 99% of the time with messed up GPS+nav.

                        Hah, when I saw the title I thought it was going to be the "specs so insane for this price, it makes you wonder how Samsung wants to sell its flagships now" kind of head scratch... Apparently not lol

                          That's good news for Xiaomi.

                            "Samsung, however, wants to take the (madness) cake with the Galaxy M21 2021 Edition".

                            Samsung just wanted to be top dog at everything. 😀

                              I mean they've already pulled off M31/31s/F-series and what not rebranding, so not surprising

                                  Nokia also do a simple naming scheme, "Nokia 5.1 / Nokia 5.2", also pretty easy to follow

                                  Samsung had the chance to follow through "Galaxy M20 / Galaxy M21" but decided to go this odd "edition".
                                  Even Samsung know this phone doesn't deserved the name of Galaxy M22
                                  Or that because they have the planned M22 with G80 which basically identical in performance to 9611.

                                    For the price, amoled + 9611 was still pretty decent.
                                    This combo killed price/performance value of many phone not titled Xiaomi/Realme last year.
                                    Vivo manage to try to sell SD460 with 8gb ram to compete with this somehow

                                      Anonymous, 10 Jul 2021Do you want a phone or a power bank?This article says this 2021 version is basically the same as original m21. Now that I've known this, I'm not in the least bit interested in buying this.

                                      But if they put 10000 mah battery and everything else is the same like I said, I'll consider it.
