"I'm currently using a Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus and I'm looking to upgrade to either the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra or the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. I don't play games and mainly use my phone for calls, messages, social media, and browsing. Which device would be more suitable for my needs?"

Got it for 12k pesos KV here in the Philippines. Better than most of the midrange phones of 2023/2024. My iphone 13 mini now has a BIG brother. Loving this phone!

Newton, 14 Feb 2024What phone i shiuld buy Samsung galaxy s21 ultra 5g or Sams... moreS23 FE has better processor, sides are really sharp on the back, phone is smaller and lighter. Cameras are good but not as good as the S21 Ultra.
S21 Ultra has better cameras, larger screen, but also is larger and that makes it harder to use one handed. It supports S pen but there is nowhere to store it on the phone itself.
Really depends on what you use it for mainly, if you take a lot of pictures I'd say S21 Ultra, if you use it for more general stuff or games rather than photography, I'd say S23 FE. If you don't use CPU performance much nor do you use a case, then S21 ultra since its more comfortable in the hand

This phone is a lot easier to hold compared to later Ultra models due to the rounder corners. It is a lot heavier than my S8 or LG K31 though.
Main 108mp camera is good, the other three suffer in low light, such as morning or dusk. That ultrawide since it has auto focus is very handy. 240mm is also really nice to have. One major problem is not being able to shoot RAW in the 108mp mode, its heavily processed in that mode. 12MP is the highest resolution you can shoot with manual control :(
The cameras on the s21 plus are not as great, but still good, but the CPU is the same so if you don't need that crazy of a camera maybe get the base model or plus to save money.
With all the battery saver stuff turned on and no sim, it lasts about 6 to 7 days per charge. I pretty much use it as a portable camera.
These have an issue where the display goes black due to some kind of manufacturing defect. Replacing the screen fixes this issue but I haven't found the exact cause or a way to fix the screen itself yet. If anyone has more info on this please let me know, I have like 3 of these dead ones from other people's phones I've repaired. This is rare, but something to be aware of.
I've not seen it have the antennae issue that the S22 Ultra sometimes has nor the power buttons sticking or falling out that the S22 Ultra sometimes has.
Overall much prefer it over the S22 Ultra. I've not seen much issues with the S23 Ultra yet and the camera on that S23 Ultra is significantly better so that one would probably take my preference, I don't own one though. S24 Ultra I've only experienced once, and the zoom is pretty blurry at really far zoom amounts, which disappoints me for my usage (bird photography mainly)
Really wish I could test some of those xiaomi or huawei phones but in my country people buy exclusively apple or samsung and I can't justify spending $1500 on another phone to test since I already have 3 :/

Before I upgraded I compared it with my dad's s21 ultra side by side, it was much more responsive. Something I did not realize how slow my s9 has gotten over the years. My S21 Ultra feels like a 2024 flagship for me. I will not be upgrading for many years to come.

My mother has one and she loves it more than the Pixel 8 Pro my brother got her.

I was steam cleaning the toilet and phone was in my pocket.
It was not directly put on any source of water or steam jets
The back sealing literally melted away..
I bought the most powerful model of 16gb ram and 512 rom because I wanted to keep the phone at least for 5 years.
Dead after 3..kinda dissapointed.
I will never buy samsung again..Im on iphone 13 and so far so good
