I've had this phone for over a day now, I am really satisfied over this phone. Great camera, amazing screen, great performance but it can overheat in heavy gaming(I have exynos version btw)
Battery endurance could have been better though. Anyone got any tips for getting better nattery performance? (Obviously turning 120hz down to 60hz will help alot) but other than that?

    Jay, 25 Jun 2021It means the model number for different countryReally?? Ok wow. I was not aware that they were adding codes for each country. Seems impractical. I tought models were per world regions instead.
    Thnx for the info

          What is the difference between the SM-G991BZVDEUB and the SM-G991BZVDEUE and the SM-G991BZVDEUC? I found different models with the ending letter changed, but I couldn't find what does this means. Anyone?

                Cool phone, the screen kinda sucks though. its really blurry on acount of the 1080P display. nothing is sharp and crisp. cant really get over that. Definitly does not feel like a flashship. I would skip on this one and go for other brands that have similar features but beter screen resolution for similar price. I definitly regret my purchase.

                  I just got the S21 (from S7). The 1080P on the S21 display absolutly sucks. evrythings is blurry, and it huts my eyes after 5mn of use. How is it that a screen from 2021 is worse that a screen from a device that is from 2016... especially at this price point... I Really regret not going for another brand. The only reason I hesitated was all the other brands with the specs that i wanted have massive displays. But honestly a QHD 60hz display with an old 765 processor, 4gb of ram and no 5G compatibility (who really needs 5G anyways) would have made a beter phone than the one we got now with the crappy 1080P display we get on the S21. At this price point I feel like my money just went down the drain and i am really resentful towards samsung. The S21 is absolutly not a flagship device and is way to expensive for what it brings to the table.

                      Curious to see what better features S22 will bring, probably not a lot.

                        The phone is good but coming from a galaxy s7, i Can definitely see the lower screen resolution. Everything seems kind of blurry, text isn't crispy and images and movies don't look sharp. Sure the color and brightness is great and 120hz is nice to have but I would chose 1440p over 120hz in the blink of an eye. Uness you hold your phone far from your face the screen is not sharp and crispy. When you watch movies or read, you're not really scrolling fast so the only time you'll really notice 120hz is when scrolling through the menus which is maybe 5% of the time you actually spend on your phone. The rest of the time you're in an app not really scrolling at fast speeds anways. The other consessions Samsung made with the s21 I can live with but I am really disappointed in the 1080p screen. I would chose 1440p over 1080p even if it meant using sapdragon 835, 4gb of ram and a 60hz display.

                            I've been using this phone for a few months now and I absolutely love it. Battery life is great, the display is phenomenal and the performance blows me away. I'm not sure why some YouTubers hate it. It also charges faster than any other phone I've seen. The only advice I have on improving it is disabling background usage in your apps.

                              Azazeal, 17 Jun 2021I also wouldn't say a phone is bad because a reviewer/... moreLatest chipset makes the phone more powerful, that's good for future proofing, and also better camera processing from the newer ISP.
                              Recent high MP camera sensors most of the time are physically bigger, have pixel binning and have more advanced HDR.

                                      S21 is a disappointing overheating downgrade, Mi11 hasthe worst flagship value and quality, OP9 is garbage, ZF8 is not really a flagship and quality is not good either. What else is coming this year, Pixel? Will be most likely overpriced with inferior chipset. Xperia 5 III? Will be probably more expensive. S21 FE could be a good fit for the price if Samsung won't use some trash hardware for it again.

                                        I hope next s-series will have a smaller version .
                                        They took away our flagship quality display and put a mid range display to cut the price and the price is bigger than the last model with lower specs.
                                        If for exemple whant a smaller device 5.1- 5.8 inch with 1440p curved screen , but i don t what face id or fingerprint , i don t work on nasa to have imporant data to lock my screen , so i don t care about that , i prefer to have a version of phone without that and cut the price for less locking versions
