sbr, 18 Jan 2021Screen resolution is too low. It does not matter at all, why would you care for much? Can you see the difference between 2K and FHD? Actually FHD is still crisp on samsung and also battery saver than using 2K, even you still can't watch Youtube on 4K

          A number of ftupid comments like "it's not a downgrade because I don't use missing features" is becoming fannoying. Who fares what features you don't use, this is still a fowngrade!

              Thanks Samsung, you just make me save 850 euros with these specs and that phone that i won't buy. My S20 5G will be perfectly ok for at least another year.
              Buying an S6 64GB with no memory card was my biggest mistake, won't do it again...
              Seriously, now even Oppo phones have 128 GB and memory card slot for less than 200 euros. And Samsung cannot even give 256GB as basic storage in a 850 euro "flagship" phone, pathetic. S21 is just a midranger with flagship price.

                Avihu, 17 Jan 2021No MicroSD card? No 3.5mm Headphone jack? (and no earbuds ... moreYeah it's a shame really. Samsung seems to be taking a rather aggressive pragmatic approach as of lately, dropping whatever feature that is deemed "not essential" to the user's experience.

                I'm all in for minimalist approaches, but this ain't it chief. If I want something minimal, I'll take a Pixel instead.

                  AnonD-920712, 17 Jan 2021i know this s21 Regular made from plastic, not like S21plus... moreDon't get me wrong, I love plastic-back phones (especially if it's nice plastic). But at $800, this isn't really the territory for plastic phones. People who spend this much most likely want something more premium feeling.

                  And besides, the Galaxy S series has maintained this "premium glass" design ever since the S6. It would be a shame for them to regress back into the S5 era of plastic Samsung flagships.

                  Also I can't believe 171g is now considered light. I remember back in the days when phones were only 130-150g!

                    From an entirely pragmatic perspective, yes, but this is a premium $1000 flagship smartphone we're talking about here, made for conspicuous consumption. It is looked upon as jewelry and as a fashion statement, not some handyman's tool. So your reasoning in this context is heavily misplaced (and not to mention entirely subjective).

                            I'm upgrading to S21 from S9 plus. Plastic cover doesn't really bother me as I always use back cover. Getting ear buds live solves the no head set issue. Also I got 50$ coupon with preorder which I used to buy wall charger and headphone adapter. So again no complains for no charger/headset.

                              This is the almost perfect compact flagship phone.
                              The predecessor S20 had 2 main weak points - design and battery - And this one fixes those two weak points completely.
                              Within the design, they have removed the fragile/useless glass back. Plastic is not great but still better than glass. They also removed the curved display, another useless gimmick that made the phone become more expensive.
                              For me I dont care about losing MicroSD; I think the only thing remaining for this being perfect is the audio jack, but sadly its gone.

                                For example I bought a Laptop from Saudi at 1400$ and the same laptop was 1700 on Amazon US.

                                    Samsung has announced that there will be no free earphones or charging adapter inside the box of any of the Galaxy S21 series phones. Samsung has also eliminated the microSD card slot from the Galaxy S21 series.

                                      No MicroSD card?
                                      No 3.5mm Headphone jack? (and no earbuds included)
                                      No Infrared? (just adding another item, I know we are not in the 90's)
                                      No heart rate sensor / O2?
                                      No QHD? (actually a compromise I personally can live with if it means more battery life...)
                                      Same Camera sensors (with a ridiculous x1.06 telephoto lens - are you serious??)
                                      Same battery size
                                      Bigger bezels & plastic back?

                                      Is this progress? Is this how an alternative to iPhone should look like?
                                      Well there are a lot of colors to chose from... I guess this is supposed to comfort us.
                                      It's a sad imitation of an iPhone.
                                      Samsung was always the sensible choice, It doesn't seem to be so with this model.

                                        Went to another store that had all standard color options for S21 series.

                                        A few things I've noticed
                                        - phone frame on S21/S21+ goes further front than on S10e (and I think much further than on S10). As a result silver/rose frame is quite more pronounced and is somewhat annoying. Frame on S10e was more subdued.
                                        - black frame looks like a continuation of display bezels and is very nice
                                        - out of all color options pink back looks the best (but is for girls); white back is fine, but not good enough; violet has not captured me; black is actually somehat grayish and is reflective(dispersive?) and when compared to the mat black or black black of S21+ it sucks
                                        - Gosh, that S21+ black is sexy

                                        In the end I don't like all presented color options for S21 and I don't use cases, so ... should I keep S10e for another year?
