      Anonymous, 17 Aug 2021how the sound quality through wireless audio? it isn't... more"Tuned by AKG" means that the phone's built-in speakers are tuned by AKG, a speaker company owned by Samsung. As for Bluetooth, there really isn't a difference between different phones anymore, your earbuds will likely sound basically identical from device to device.

        Anonymous, 17 Aug 2021S20 FE and S10e were budget like phones. They were cheaper ... moreThe S21 is not more expensive than the S20. The MSRP of the S20 was $1000, and the S21 is $800. The S20 models are still more expensive than their S21 counterparts on Samsung's website. Yeah you can find them on eBay or something for less, but they are still cheaper from Samsung, always have been and still are. There are also other reasons to buy the S21 over the S20, including faster processors, better battery life, and it'll get another year of software updates.

The increase between 1080p and 1440p is simply too small to be worth the drawbacks, including worse battery life and more GPU throttling. The jump between 720p and 1080p is much bigger, enough to be noticeable in daily use, even when you're not actively looking for it. 1080p is the sweet spot at this screen size. Also, the S21 displays are still top-tier, a minuscule drop in resolution isn't gonna change that, that's just stupid lmao. The drop in resolution is perfectly okay, and actually welcome in my eyes.

I already think 1440p is dumb on phones, but at least I can kinda see the argument if it's an OLED display (not an LCD, that would weaken brightness in addition to the other drawbacks), and if you can turn it down if you want. Samsung would never put 1440p on the S21 FE, that is unarguably dumb. The FE series is supposed to keep the core parts and get rid of the extras to reduce the price, not add on to the normal version.

                        Why samsung dont have 1440p on s21 . Atleast they should put 1440p display on s22 premium phones

                        S21 is 1080p and then why s21 fe with 1080p display at least s21 fe should have 1440p display.

                            Anonymous, 16 Aug 2021First off i have s10e 5.8 inch and a friend of mine has s10... moreMy point is, why would I want an improvement that you'll barely even notice not having after a day, that comes with several drawbacks? I'd take better battery life, higher FPS, and less GPU throttling over a slight resolution bump, no contest. I can't think of any scenario where 1440p on a sub-8" display is worth it. If you prefer 1440p, that's fine, you do you, but I just think it's a bad idea.

                            Also my dad has an S20 Ultra and neither of us can tell the difference easily, let alone care about it enough to prefer it over the drawbacks.

                              They were supposed to make a 4G version of that phone, but unfortunately, they cancelled the project.

I choose s10e because of his size .
                                And second i have friends that repair phones for a living . And guess what part of a phone is most expensive if you have to replace it ? The Display , you have ideea how expensive are screen quality ? So i don t have any problem with having 1080p screen on a mid range , but when you pay for a high specs you should get high specs.
                                The point S20 has better features than S21 and you can t deny that.

I have an s10 and I am able to choose which resolution suits me. Yes there is a difference in resolution quality even if only a small one and I choose the highest in order to get the best quality.

                                      Anonymous, 15 Aug 2021At that size ? Tell that to 5.1 inch 1440p screen in the pa... moreNo, wrong. I'm all aboard more features. I'm not okay with features that add literally nothing, like 1440p. You basically gotta have your phone centimeters away from your face to tell the difference. Even if you can see and care about the difference from like a foot away (which most people do a good chunk of the time, and people who do care are rare), there are way too many drawbacks that make it just not worth it.
