          Dragon, 28 Mar 2022do you have the snapdragon version ?I own exynos,SD isnt that different. Without GOS for both soc,they are flat irons. I have s20fe before, not a single features was off,even NFC and location services are on except for 1,thatd AOD. The battery life is excellent.. even I use my mobile data the whole day,I still have something left when I go to bed. Maybe I am used to s20fe battery life. I have poco x3 pro also,I think thats why I feel s21 FE battery life is poor because of those devices.

            About a week ago I retired my trusty S10e after it gave me a good 3 years of service and I got myself the S21 FE.
            It's snappy, responsive, fast, and both, camera and performance improvements are massive, it's also significantly better regarding battery life and it doesn't heat up like my S10e used to.

            Only downside is that it's kind of too large for me to use it with just one hand and I miss side mounted fingerprint scanner that I always used to drag down notification bar, the S10e was just so convenient with that.

              Not the necessary good features are turned off. Just mostly the background scanning features like autoscan nearby devices, some ads settings etc. Better search the samsung battery optimizations in xda. I have all the good features still on like aod(show for 10s), double tap to wake, etc. Yesterday I got 8-9 sot (actually 2 days) with just wifi at home.

                  DarkStar9173, 28 Mar 2022What battery optimizations?U need to turn off all features,like aod,gps,black themes,disable 5G,reduce brightness levels,reduce display on time,double tap to wake,enable GOS,ETC. Why put all those feature if you are only going to turn off them?. Then better go xiaomi and install custom rom. Let me tell you,this mobile has poor battery life,thats it.

                    Boss G, 27 Mar 2022Got this mobile for 537 Usd. Sadly only the Exynos version ... moreWhat battery optimizations?

                      Got this mobile for 537 Usd. Sadly only the Exynos version is available here but the good thing is it was the 256gb variant. The battery seems to discharge quickly on the first 2 days.I got roughly 6hrs SOT. But after I followed the battery optimizations on xda, the endurance improvement is very noticeable. Today I am currently on 4hrs 9mins SOT with 59% remaining battery.

                        hekurn, 25 Mar 2022Stay away from Exynos variant guys. It's buggy as hell... moreI have exynos,i doubt sd888 will be a better choice compared to 2100. They are the same to me. Battery hog,and overheating chip. SD is not different with this case.

                          overheating which causing battery problem and performance problem.
                          only pick the snapdragon variant.

                            After seeing this guy's video you probably think Galaxy A53 is better than s21 fe ,

                            I was surprised!

                              Just got this phone today in a career deal for 550 bucks with a free galaxy watch 4 44mm. 6/128 snapdragon version is the only one on offer. Performance is fantastic. Played cod mobile battle Royale mode maxed for 2 hours. No overheating, no stutters. Big improvement over the x3 pro I had previously. After 2 hours of gaming the battery went from 95 to 68%. Will explore the phone more tomorrow and try alien isolation next.

                                Snapdragon variant, 8/256 gb version. So far everything is working great!
                                Animations running smooth, no bugs/glitches, battery is good, amazing refresh rate!
                                If you can get this at a discount I fully recommend! 👍

I had it ordered, now I've canceled the order bc I heard there are ''network connective" issues, terrible battery and runs hot. so then I hear that its the Exynos variant thats the problem. So Im seriously hoping the SW updates take care of the bugginess bc i also heard it "stutters" and "is janky as hell"....idk.

                                    does this phone support 3.5mm dongle/adapter?

                                      How much is the current price and how will it take to be delivered to Nigeria..?
