I bought an s21 in 2024, the motherboard of my s9 was burned, the exynos of my s9 was heating up, and the battery didn't last long, so for the purchase of a new samsung I was afraid about the samsung chips, so much so that I had aimed at the s20 fe with the snapdragon, but I decided to give a chance to the exynos of the s21, the reviews spoke well of it.

Guys, it's a masterpiece, it never heats up, super fast, with 120 hz activated the s21 can easily hold up in 2025 with phones released now, I think samsung hit the mark that time..

Funny that the s22 has returned to having a mediocre exynos, Samsung is really strange what do you think? Do you agree?

I miss the s9 screen though, that resolution was crazy

I don't think S21 Ultra Exynos can upgrade it's CPU to a better Snapdragon though. I would like to upgrade the S21 Ultra phone without getting the S22 Ultra platform which now operates in a lesser of a phone's component space that was taken up by a pen holder.

I tried using Cpu-z but it says my board is a "Lahaina" which I have no idea what that means.

My wife has an S22 Ultra. It's alright. I don't really think it's all that worthwhile of a device to upgrade if you already have an S21U, unless you get a really good deal.

I had the chance to try out an S23U recently.. And honestly, I wasn't impressed that much. If anything, it almost seemed like a downgrade, particularly in the camera department. Everything seemed to be off colored and grainy. My wife seemed to think so as well. Tried different settings... Nothing seemed to improve it much.

My wife's device, the S22u 256gb with 12gb of RAM, is incredibly laggy. I've never had this problem with the S21 Ultra.

That makes me beg the question... Are these newer devices really worth upgrading to from the S21 Ultra? There seems to be so many issues with newer devices.

I'm definitely at the point where I'd like to update my phone, so I was excited when the S25 was coming out. However, seeing all the reviews on it is making me doubt if I want to make the purchase. I don't particularly care for AI; the feature I care for most is getting a good camera for pictures and videos. I know nothing about technology, so I don't really know how to compare it to know if the change would be worth it, and the reviews I've watched have been very mixed. If anyone has any suggestions, that'll be very appreciated.

It might be possible for me to get hands on an S21 Ultra sealed pack for approx 320 usd (29k inr). You think this is a good deal? And does it makes sense spending this on a phone which effectively does not have any OS updates coming? I have always wanted to get an Ultra but never got around to doing it, and this might be an opportunity. I'm checking if I can get a similar deal for s22 ultra, but it seems unlikely.

Let me know your thoughts please.

I have a Samsung M62 an intermediate and I'm thinking of buying a S22 ultra or a S21 ultra I've always had the dream of having an ultra but I was watching video analysis of comparisons between phones and I saw that in the comparisons between the s21 ultra vs iPhone vs Pixel and people said that the s21U is better in the cameras too but when I saw S22 ultra vs iPhone vs Pixel people said that they were all similar phones great phones and that there wasn't that much difference few comments saying that the S22 ultra is better, for me I want a cell phone with a good camera a battery that lasts at least a day Or that I only charge at night, I don't use games much more social media and streaming, I plan to use the New phone for about 2 years at least.

What are your thoughts? Do you think Is It worth It to pay more for an S22U ?

S21 ultra still good ?? I have focus on battery or buy Redmi note 13 pro plus, honor x8b

I have an S10 right now thar works perfectly but feel I should upgrade before issues arise. Do not care about the latest features or acquiring status by having the latest cell phone.

Is it a bad move to purchase a galaxy s21 right now in April 2024 It's unlocked. From backpage.com 168 bucks

Is this the right move?

I’m planning to upgrade from Iphone Xs in early october. My questions:

1. How does it hold up today?

2. What are the pros and cons of owning it now?

3. How often does it lag, stutter?

4. What phone would you recommend if you don’t recommend buying this phone ( Samsung S21 Ultra)? You can recommend any phone brand model except Xiaomi ( because I don’t like it’s os)

I use my current phone for Social media, work, browsing and sometimes for games My maximum budget is 350€ euros

On the end of May my s21 ultra (exynos) had a big update, and ever since it has freezed unexpectedly and afterwards had multiple reboots. I had it examined in a local phone service, but they found nothing. I have had enough of this, once it stopped working in a middle of a super busy night as I was planning the night with my friends.

Before I was a Samsung ultra fan because my previous s20 ultra had proven to be a reliable, smooth and fast phone. The issue I have encountered now has shaped my thoughts, and I no loger want to have anything to do with Samsung.

Please suggest a android phone you find as good as Samsung Ultra, but more reliable. In the best scenario also as good camera, but that's not the main thing. I have positive experiences with Xiaomi, but I was thinking about One Plus although I haven't had one. Thank you!

To the people that owns these devices, what are your guy's thoughts on the device? How does the battery, temperature, performance held up after 2 years of use. Which device perform better in this specific aspect but is worse on the other device and are the rumors of the device you're using true or not.

I got my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 512 GB with 16 GB RAM back in October 2021, and since then, I’ve truly made the most of it! 📱

Photo/Video Backup

With 76,000 - 76,500 photos and videos (excluding screenshots and WhatsApp images), it’s time for another backup on my HDD, as my Google Photos storage is maxed out. 😅 I back up twice a year, and considering an average of 70k photos per backup, that’s around 140k photos per year. Over the past 3 years, I’ve easily accumulated around 420k photos/videos. Capturing memories is definitely my forte! 📸✨

Battery Life 🔋

Flagship phones come with bigger batteries, and mine’s no exception! I charge it to 100% in the morning, and even with heavy usage, it lasts until evening. With moderate use, it powers through till night. It’s like having a mini power station in my pocket! 💪

Multi-Window Apps 💻📲

I’m a multitasking pro—I use two apps almost every day, like Mail and WhatsApp simultaneously. The split-screen feature has become a daily companion!

Image/Text Conversion

From day one, I’ve used the feature to capture and convert images or screenshots into text. This has made note-taking and information extraction a breeze! 📝🔍

Reverse Wireless Charging

This is where my phone truly stands out! 🔄 People are always amazed when I let them place their iPhones on my phone’s back to give them that much-needed 10% charge boost. 😅 I’ve saved the day for countless friends and strangers with this nifty feature!

Telephoto Lens

I’ve captured thousands of photos of the Moon, and I’m still not done. That 100x zoom lens is simply phenomenal! 🌕📷

8K/4K Video Recording 🎥

Whether it’s 8K or 4K, I’ve pushed the limits with the video capabilities. The quality is insane, and I’ve loved every moment spent shooting high-definition videos.

Professional Photography

I’ve even used the 108MP main camera for professional car photography and pre-wedding photoshoots. The results? Stunning! 🚗💍📸

Durability

Despite being dropped countless times (I’ve lost count!), it only has a few minor scratches. Talk about resilience! 🔧💥

Bixby & Desktop Mode

With Bixby, my phone transforms into a desktop. I can access all my phone apps on my laptop seamlessly. It’s been a game-changer since day one! 💻🤖

Unique Features

Edge Panel, Good Lock, One-Hand Operation, S Pen support—I've explored A-Z of this device’s capabilities.

I’ve truly pushed this phone to its limits over the past 4 years. Whether it’s photography, multitasking, or unique features, I’ve used it all.

I guess that makes me the perfect flagship phone user 😅🫠 This phone was worth every penny! 💯

I am thinking about getting a new phone. Which phone would be best suitable for my usage? Thank you.
