Jacksonzxop, 05 Dec 20211st thing, s21 does not cost $1000 and neither will the s22... moreThe S21 is $1000 where i live. I don't even care about the Mi 1. Money isn't a problem, but i want to spend it on something that's worth it and the S21 is definitely not worth the price. Maybe if it was like $700 i would have bought it. And speaking of Sony, i tried their phones out but i don't like them. The 21:9 ratio ruins it

    babak, 09 Dec 2021if they do you should charge your battery 4 times a day.It's a situation where if they increase resolution but also made the phone compact they'll complain about battery life but if they made it compact with a 1080p resolution they'll complain about the lack of 1440p even tho it's a smaller screen with a really dense ppi. No matter what you do you can't please everyone

        Anonymous, 07 Dec 2021 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣I love that they want to make s22 more compact , but stil FHD display is not ok .
        Please let this specs with 1440p screen and i would buy it .

        I am not really a big fan of Qualcomm's always on camera for Snap 8 Gen 1, so I hope that the Exynos version is actually good this year.

        Exynos 2100 wasn't great but it certainly wasn't terrible like its predecessors, so I am a bit optimistic about Exynos 2200 with mRDNA.

        i think it's time to leave samsung again. it gets more and more worse again. it's just hard to find a phone what is compact. and i don't know why everyone loves a television at the ear!
        Yes same . me two living Samsung. Not going to buy Samsung. Again.
        Moving to Sony. Sony offers 1440p display


        Smaller screen size is good thinking, listening to feedback. Hope it won't get above 8mm thickness and width hopefully is lower too.

        Droping the hybrid telephoto is natural, was awful.

        I think they should have done better at selfie camera, I bet this is where Iphones will improve (wider angle?) so they could front run them.

        I like the plastic on the back honestly, very practical

        again FHD screen ? I understand that they whant to reduce cost , but they can do that on cheaper devices. When you throw with money you whant the best and this screen is clearly not that.

              Wanted a premium phone and went through the grind of searching......
              This Phone promised a bit of everything. A good processor, Good Camera, Size that fits into the hand and pocket comfortably. I was sceptical after hearing about the plastic back cover after going through so many reviews that I almost did not buy it. I am glad that I finally ignored the reviewers who were complaining and went ahead with my acquisition. The Back cover is attractive and has a nice sheen to it. Also, the phone is very light and offers a good grip.
              The photos come out crisp in evening low light or night, just like we see the objects at that time. And the shaky photos are history. The display feels more than adequate and does not give you a feel of a tab. Mind you this phone is a tad slimmer than the rest... I have not seen any lag in any application. There are many features and it will take you a long time to use them all. I got an update to Android 12 and cannot tell any difference apart from the UI controls which also have changed(swirlies, buttons on web pages, etc)
              The only slight drawback is the battery..... which lasts for one day.
              On the whole, It is a great package from Samsung. It has a 5nm CPU and GPU from ARM packaged into a chipset internally engineered by Samsung. The speed/performance difference between this Exynos chipset and a competing Snapdragon chipset is probably something we will see only on review sites.
              The price is a comforting factor and though not easily affordable, does not make you feel as though you have been robbed.
              Believe me, you will be pretty popular when quality group photos and group selfies are required

                      I've been looking recently for a new phone to replace my old and dying LG G5 and this phone caught my attention, in a bad way tho

                      1080p, no sd, no jack, 128 gb, 8 gb ram, plastic
                      Price: $1000
                      What's with this ridiculous price? There's also no charger or headphones in the box. Did they forget to lower the price after removing them?
                      Lol guess i'm either gonna wait for the S22 to see what they do with it or head over to Xiaomi

                        Don't worry. On of my cousin work at Samsung Suwon-si, South Korea headquarters. He say Samsung planning to lunch exynos version will have 1440p . And snapdragon version will have 1080p. He didn't tell about weather its for s21 fe or s22 . He said I can give you these much info only.

                            Anonymous, 29 Nov 2021I have Samsung S9, s20,s21,s21 ultra, s21 plus, s20 fe, A7... moreApples to apples both phones look the same with colors if calibrated properly. But the S21 actually has smoother video because of the 120hz screen. But then the S9 has a higher resolution so more detail can be seen.

                            Speed wise though, the S21 runs circles around the S9. Because of the modern SoC. The S9 is an ancient phone now. You could not pay me to use an S9 in 2021.

                              Anonymous, 01 Dec 2021Well I hope rumors are not gonna be true of S22 . I don... moreHow are you getting a 700ppi display? It would need to be a much higher resolution than 1440P for that. Heck, the S20 with a 6.2 inch screen at 1440 x 3200 only has 563ppi.

                                Even if folks just wanted a seamless and a flawless device at this price point, they simply just want the best camera in a smartphone!

                                  Anonymous, 01 Dec 2021Well I hope rumors are not gonna be true of S22 . I don... moreGood. Well get an S20 then, it should suit your needs. Remember, as Marques said, Samsung has a phone for everyone. my personal preference but, I like the S21 more, as it has a flat display and plastic back won't break when I drop it.
                                  Anyways, the A52s was made after the S21, so you should be saying Samsung did a good job in making their midrangers as close as possible to flagships.
                                  You make quite a valid point. I see what the problem is, they didn't reduce the price enough. People complained that S20 was too expensive, but not enough people complained

The only difference between the S21 and S9 is resolution so only sharpness should be different. Otherwise, both panels are equally colourful and smooth, S21 even more so with 120Hz.

                                        He's 18 and elite competition swimmer. He expected to be able to enter pool with a phone advertised as waterproof. Like other sane people.
