LONG REVIEW TW!!!!
Truly a dissapointment yet again from scamsung.. The day i bought the phone the battery life was extremely poor with it draining so fast i had to charge it multiple times just to set it up... after that i was hoping the battery life would improve after few days but it got even worse.. i turned off Always On and had auto brightness from day one and the battery is worse than on my old iphone X which mind you has 2 times less battery capacity (2716mAh) compared to 4500mAh which is just sad for samsung i really wasnt expecting such bad battery life and i should have listened to reviewers.. The camera experience is also not the greatest i find the images to be too processed and unnatural looking ( i will mostly compare it to my iPhone X) and only time it gives good photos in less than perfect lighting conditions is when i use the night mode which takes a lot of time to processs for a flagship device... The haptics are AWFUL compared to apple and even compared to my brothers Xiaomi.. they're springy and not very tactile VERY loud and annoying and not very nicely implemented... the build quality ain't special either i mean it really doesnt feel like a 699$ phone it feels like an A52 which is almost twice as cheap these days..... The charging is painfully slow (compared to Xiaomi but not so much compared to my iPhone) and they had the audacity to not include a charger which is ridiculous... The only saving grace for this phone is its amazing AMOLED screen with smooth 120Hz but how can i enjoy that screen if my battery dies in 5 hours!?.... Anyways i say you skip this phone bcs its terrible for its price and go for a Xiaomi (11T/11T Pro or 12x/12) and if you really want a samsung i think there are better ones (even s21 Ultra is pretty good) but yeah as a life long samsung user i decided to give samsung another chance and let me tell you i wont be caught dead with a samsung again.

    There is news here : instaling the OneUi 4.1 and made wipe data/factory reset. Everything is great now : Antutu result is 759K which is great.
    Battery life with Exynos should be bettzr than the snapdragon 888.

      MrDSM, 12 May 2022Hi, i just bought an Exynos one too with 8/256. What about... moreI have mine for over two weeks, Snapdragon 888 variant and everything is just very good with him, except battery life, that is not good. Not too bad but not good also. Also it has a very annoying stutter in simple games, like card games. But, overall, it is a very good phone.

        What about battery life?
        I've did some benchmarks (Geekbench : 3100, Antutu : 592000).
        For me it's low compared to Exynos S21+. What could be the reason? I ser also on theses test, the phone is warmer, but at the end the cpu is on some 34°c.
        I just did the update for OneUi 4.1 and did a wipe data/Factory reset to have a clean phone with clean software.

            (cont.) shorter than those 6.7" inch displays, but with the same width. It has S22 series display ratio of 19.5 by 9. 3x telephoto resolution at 16/9 mode: 2252x4000 (9 MP) and at 4/3 mode: 3000x4000 (12 MP).

                I have this phones' Exynos 2100 chip based one. The display resolution is 1080x2360 according to CPU-z. It's display width is the same like Note 10 lite, but height is 6 millimeter shorter. I actually love it being compact, a bit shorter than those 6.7" inch displays, but with the same width. It has S22 series display ratio of 19.5 by 9. It has no radio. 3x telephoto resolution at 16/9 mode: 2252x4000 (9 MP) and at 4/3 mode: 3000x4000 (12 MP).

I always thought samsungs are overpriced but after i smashed my xiaomi k40 gt a friend gave me his old samsung s10 5g and as soon as I turned it on a update of march 2022 popped up. Unbelievable for a phone launched 4 years ago.

                              If I go with 8/256 version, which one to opt for SD or Exynos, I am from Bangladesh.

                                Is it better to get s21 FE for 530$ or s20 FE for 400$? I'm currently using LG G7 and need an upgrade after 4 years

                                  is it UFS 3.1 storage here?

                                        As reviewed by GSMArena, the Exynos variant is more battery friendly than the snapdragon. Look at the S21 reviewed has 92h with only 4000 mah and the snapdragon S21 FE has 93h with 4500 mah.
