Such a disappointing follow up to the s20+. Basically identical except the soc upgrade and screen downgrade. Avoid this phone, if this is the size you want and S21 ultra is too big then get a S20+ for half of this price.

I prefer still using a note9 or s10+ with less battery capacity, than using s21+ with no microsd, no 3.5 mm jack. Not everyone uses cloud storage Something newer is NOT necessarily better.

Hey Samsumg s21 designers! Micro sd slot should be in the phone. For those who need it. Dont follow others in their STUPIDITY!

This is coming from a current S20+ user's perspective. First, for me the only downgrade is going to be 12gb>8gb of RAM. I much prefer the flat display over this stupid curved one. The in the hand feel of the new phone without the glossy back is much nicer imo. The cameras, although the same, do seem to perform better in a side by side comparison from what I see. (I sell phones daily, we just got our displays setup). I don't care about the 1440p>1080p drop because I always run the phone at 120hz, plus at this DPI realistically you can't tell a difference. I like that the battery got a small bump up in size. Also the larger fingerprint reader, I'm hoping, will be a lot faster and easier to hit consistently rather than the little sliver of a fingerprint reader in the older model. Another thing, no more do I have to deal with "Samsung Free" which imo is garbage. Now when swiping over you get Google Feed, which I used regularly when I was on a pixel phone. Finally, as a bonus, Samsung is offering me a $700 trade in credit for this device which is the same as what I paid for it, so getting this device for $299 for me was worth it. I don't use, nor care about the SD card slot. I also have a plethora of wireless headphones I can use with it so I don't care about no headphone jack either. I'm also hoping that with the upgraded antenna bands that 5G in my area will be better. (Unlikely) I will admit, although the back is glass it does look and feel like plastic. And the S21 ultra, at least in the Cosmic Black color, also looks very, very plasticy. (The glossy metal around the body seriously looks like cheap glossy plastic.)

pita, 17 Jan 2021you are right, i own s20 plus i downgraded screen resolutio... moreWell if you watch 1080p content in 1080p or 1440p it'll look same. Try watching 1440p content at 1440 resolution.

Le... moreYour judge 1440p resolution based on two people (yourself with 1080p A50 and your dad with 1080p S7 mode), lacking experience with 1440p resolution. How sweet is that!
I assume this is how you've got your judgement about SD as well.

Hm, that's a very limited target group for statistics and throwing "everyone" and "no one" statements around.

oh and earbuds and earphones are the same thing

The S21 lineup came to my country today and were displayed in a couple of telephone services companies. Honestly, I'm surprised by S21+ screen. Since there's no WQHD and only FHD, I thought the screen would look worse than my current S9+ which has WQHD, but honestly I can't see any difference. Also, I compared front cameras of S21+ and S20+ in the store, and S21+ looks much better for some reason (?) which is kinda weird since they both have the same cameras. I'm guessing the new chip/processor is responsible for this? If anyone can explain these two things, please do; thanks.
