OMG! Compared to my S20 FE camera, its 12MP is much much better than the 108MP even at night shots! What the hell lol.

Between all if them:
1) S21 Ultra: Great battery but it's receiving the last and final One UI 6.1 One UI update.
2) S22 Ultra: Very crappy battery run time per charge cycle. I'd needed to carry around a USB brick battery with me just to make it through out the whole day. Stay away from this phone.
3) S23 Ultra: Great battery and is still in full support.
4) S24 Ultra: great battery with lots of AI features that comes with 7 years of support.

"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 :/
