I have an S20 FE. If you notice in the video tests for the rear cameras, one thing that bothers me in the S20 FE is the excessive contrast, which causes a lot of information to be lost in the dark parts. In S21 FE this does not occur. Shadows present much more information than in the S20 FE. Note this at 6:51 in the tree in the background (left side).
thats' true... but the opposite works better to S20FE when we have a bright area I feel like S21FE loses detail on bright areas. Basically thats it S20 FE loses details on dark areas SF21 FE loses details on bright areas
They are so similar, 21fe has a tendency to have HDR like colour and more over sharpen, while 20fe has slight more natural like colour. Both phones tend to have it's over exposure (typical Samsung affair). If not 5G, 20fe wins here.
i kinda like the S21FE on selfie at night bcuz its more brighter, but as u say it results to much more noise. for around 450usd for the S20FE i guess its a much better choice compared to the 699usd on the S21FE.
I would like to add that the ultrawide does not have OIS, and on the pro mode you can't select the telephoto lens. I made some tests with the 20 FE and there are some details that nobody tells you. Like you can't shoot with the tele camera with 60 fps, no matter the mode. And it sometimes doesn't activate if you have the subject too close or there isn't enough light. A nice thing is, if you start recording with it using the zoom lens, and you don't change the zoom, it will keep using that lens, wherever the subject is and no matter how much light it is. One other little thing is, with stabilization on, using 60 fps crops in a bit more than 30 fps, and sharpens the image a bit and overall the subject or text of what is filmed is clearer, too bad it will never use the tele lens, it will make another crop if you zoom. i thing as far as cameras are concerned the s20 fe has nothing to be replaced with here.
Opa um BR aqui tbm. Fala vdd, esses vários testes que o cara fez ficaram muito bons. Minha conclusão é que para áreas escuras o S20Fe perde detalhes, enquanto o S21Fe perde detalhes para áreas claras
Both fones are gr8. The pick for me is definitely S20fe because of it's snapdragon processor which is definitely a yes for me over the Exynos. Samsung should either improve the exynos or should discontinue in high end phones as many non-tech savvy people do not understand the difference and later they regret it!
Man this video was a lot of work, thanks dude, I just came from some f-ing hoax comparison videos that were identical photos except some had altered saturation, not really taken with different devices, and it was obvious. Too bad TH-cam doesn't f-ing let us downvote hoax videos like that, in Google's infinite wisdom. But thanks again it's obvious how much effort went into this video.
Lol, thanks! Comments like this mean a lot. Those fake comparisons make it tough for others like me, which is why I try to show myself shooting with the phones in the video. I still get comments from people thinking it's fake though.
Man. Always have to throw props to your absolutely beautiful pup. Omg!!! Don't worry Grant hahah. You are a great subject too!!! Keep them coming brother. Absolutely love the comparisons!!! I need to put my Roo in a vid soon again. He isn't one to be still. Little hyper booger hahah.
Damn right they have. Samsung about to release the S23 so I'm hoping for something good. Imagine we get 108 MP for the regular S23 along with the S23 Plus. Then the Ultra is rumored to get a 200 MP camera. Samsung might have to up the camera since that's a huge resolution just to be cropped into 12 MP.
I have been on a back to back spree with your videos Grant. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos and really giving the cameras a good test run. I'll be upgrading from an iPhone 8 to a galaxy soon, and I think I'm narrowing it down with your immersive and detailed comparison tests.
Overall the pic quality is very similar. if one has to buy a mid-budget Samsung phone, S20 FE is still a great choice cause it will have lower cost compared to S21 FE. One reason to prefer S21 FE would be to have latest android 12(which is great to have), S20 FE was released with Android 10. Anyway, thanks for another good comparison Grant, well done.
Oh wow i had the s 20 fe and i hated the video quality.. Oversharpened 1080 p and a very soft and artifacty 4k footage and it makes me sad to see that there are no improvements
Thanks for the detailed comparisons. Please consider doing group selfies sitting at a table in future videos as that gets used pretty often and the S20 FE is really bad for that type of shot, blurry and smoothed out.
Such a great comparison! Nice job s21 fe with updayts and changes will be better t9 all photo parts than the 20 fe. Make a comparison between the s21 fe abd iphone 12 plzz
Awesome comparison! Have you compared battery life and screen on time? I could get them with a contract for the same price but am afraid that the battery of the s21 fe is too bad.
Should I buy S20 FE SD 865 with 340€ or S21 FE SD888 with 520€? Is it worth the difference? Now I have an iPhone 12 and I want to change the OS to Android.
I need to know something, please response. I want to know, is ip68 rated phones are Air tight??? I have a brand new phone but I find that it's not airtight . Seller saying it's fine. Another thing is I am using s21 fe . So please inform if you know about that please. ..... ... .. . THANKS FOR READING IT WHOLE AND HAVE A GOOD TIME
I go S21FE chipset plus better have camera sensor in S21Fe, I afford so I don't mind the price. I watch 5 youtubers who compared this two phones before I buy, but yeah I more convince with S21FE ,. camera and performance wise, but if you are in budget meal, s20 fe is also great choice.
Hey guru Kindly provide following inputs aswell for Samsung Fe s21 1. When the 4G network is just 1 out of 4 lines, is the reception and call quality good? Which specification tells this aspect? 2. When I connect my Fe s21 mobile to a wifi with no internet connectivity, will I be able to use the mobile 4G data? Which mobile specification mentions this? Thank you -Vikrant
#1: Not sure what you mean by lines. Are you talking about LTE bands? If so, then check if the 4G bands it supports are what you need for your wireless service. #2: Also, not sure why you'd connect to a wifi network with no connectivity. If you do, then most devices won't get data.
Pretty good comparisons. It's amazing how similar are both even with the different prices between. It's really cool you had chosen the same spots in the different videos as I can notice the difference between another cellphones. Thank you!!!👍👍👍👍👍
My S20 FE doesn't got that Front Camera, mine looks blurry and moist. I updated it to the latest version and still there is no difference. Whats wrong with my device? :(
You could change Tint, Contrast, Saturation, Highlight, Shadow, of the image on the S20 FE pro mode, under the "Standard" icon, aside the WB icon. The S21 FE lacks that in the Pro Mode?
People's selfie of S20FE look like zombie. The frontal camera of S20FE to take selfies is horrible, the skin looks like colour grey and people looked uglier hehehe The normal camera is great, but the frontal one is a disaster for selfies. Great review my friend!
S21 is a bit sharper in some photos, slightly better HDR but not worth paying 200$ extra, especially that you get a smaller screen and no microsd slot, and no charger. Total BS. Get S20 FE while it's still available.

Use pro video for night or low light, it'll be a bit noisy but it has way more detail

Basically thats it

I'd go S20 FE. Main difference is the chipset. You also lose the microSD card in the S21 FE if that matters to you as well.
Watching this in February 2023 and i'm going to save for buy the S20FE in some months.

The 21 overexposes daytime photos but is stronger at night time filming.

S20 FE хорош! и уже сильно подешевел!

Honestly I can't tell much of a difference.

The only thing better about S21fe is 3X portrait
You could change Tint, Contrast, Saturation, Highlight, Shadow, of the image on the S20 FE pro mode, under the "Standard" icon, aside the WB icon.

perfect
Night time shots are really better in s21 fe , exposure and color and whitebalance and sharpness
Manual mode would probably help that.
Almost same picture quality only 21fe is little brighter so 20fe look more contrasty.
At 2:17 you interchanged phone names , maybe you changed throughout the video in samples too
That's because they were taken from the named phone
Best comparison
Thanks
Is this the snapdragon variant of the S21 FE?
Yes
So... If you have s21 fe, you have to update to S20 Fe...🤣
how about battery drain betwin s20fe and s21fe ...
all that 4k60fps footage only for them to remove the SD slot so you won't have enough place to store it
s21fe is basically a downgrade
Jeeezzz... Samsung is fail with s21fe, not just only because it's nonsense price, but with battery, and overwhelming in games.....
s20 fe - forever! Это точно!
C'est moi ou le s20 fe et meilleur avec plus de detail le s21 fe ça sature trop les couleur on voit mal les détail ?
