Put in 1.25x speed and it sounds perfect
Thank you!!
Perfect
I saw this too little too late :/
As an idiot, i like ot explained to me slowly
1.5x and it sounds normal
so in short the most expensive one is the best for us
You pay what you get for. If it's within your budget the s21 ultra would definitely be the way to go.
I ordered my S21Ultra 512G on Thursday.
@XxKaiju_123xX I just ordered it. I'll get it by the end of thee month, unless current events delay it.
@XxKaiju_123xX hello? No one has it yet, except these youtube reviewers! We just preordered it on Thursday. We don't get it until two weeks. It might be longer because of some things going on right . Ask these people on the video that have it.
I can tell you about my Note 9. I had had that for two years now.
😑😑😑
Me pushing further s21 to s21 plus to buy
Saki push further to get ultra
My wallet left the chat
Great video 😊. One suggestion is to look at differences between the S21 & S21+ for the amount of $200. Much larger battery, bigger phone, glass back, stay with flat screen that many now prefer & more color choices. If those differences are worth $200 is probably more subjective due to preference and how active & what types of activities person uses their phone for. I think their is still a big market of people who may choose the S21+. I definitely agree with you that the $200 more for Ultra from S21+ is objectively easier to see. Thanks for helping us make decisions.
You instantly had me hooked from your opening. Thank you for this review! Super helpful!
I just came from the T- Mobile store utterly confused. Thank you for explaining this in layman's terms👌🏽🎤👄.
Preordered my S21 Ultra 5G 512g Phantom Black today!😁
Thanks for this great breakdown between these phones! Excellent job at explaining the differences and specs of each device...you've definitely helped me with my decision making! 😉
I wanted this phone so bad but the eliminating of the expandable memory card slot is a deal breaker for me. 😭
I feel the same and I am not sure how I am going to overcome that. I have a note with 512 and a 400GB card in it. I have half-filled the phone and half-filled the card. I simply cannot go to a phone without an SD card slot. I am not sure how that is going to work. Maybe they will bring the Note 21 out with a 1TB storage option. But then they will charge $2000 for it.
U can buy the 512 GB and u wouldnt need it trust me
@@aliayld no seriously, 512gb would not be enough for me. I have a TH-cam and take lots of video footage for it. Plus.... I love music and prefer to keep hard copies on my device rather than use streaming.
@@Kelly-he9ge You can buy an expandable hard drive to store your data. I have 2 & their both 1TB. Together that equals 2000 gigabytes. I'll have plenty of space if I decide to upgrade to the s21 ultra.
@@aliayld you'd be surprised at how quickly that will fill up
your videos are so well laid out and organized. You are my go to for phone comparisons and which to buy
I went for the S21 with 256GB. The display is good enough. I have a tablet with an S-pen and I don't use it much. The camera is good enough for what I do and is an improvement over the S10 I was using. I prefer a flat display. I use a case so I will never see the back. All these made the S21 the easy choice for me.
Hi, as an S10 user myself it's the screen that's the biggest put off for me. How is the difference now you've had it a while? Miss the S10 screen? I do enjoy a headphone jack and memory card too but mainly the screen is my concern
@@paolo6336, I'm still fine with it. I have a S10 for my work phone but I use the S21 far more. It just feels better all around. I honestly don't even notice the screen difference.
No SD slot is gonna make it much easier to look at other brands what a disappointment 👎
Or maybe a reason to snatch a super-value S20, which does have SD card?
I thought so too as I have a lot of movies on it but I'm just going to get a plugin drive when I want to watch them
Agreed. I feel like they are going to lose $ on this one. No standard headphone jack, no charging cables & fob, and now no memory card slot.... I feel like I'm in the twilight zone - is Samsung copying Apple now or what? 😱🥴😡
@@Kelly-he9ge Definitely.
I never used that
Depending on what you use your phone for, no one actually uses the phone at its most capacity. This video convinced me to get the S21, because there are not many difefences between it and S21+ and the ultra is too big. Thanks for the detailed explanation!
Same here
Great video saki- always coming down to the point for us who want to save some money and know the exact specs that’s are worth the purchase- not to be part of the in crowd but what’s the best value for a regular consumer with some to intermediate knowledge 💯
When its all said and done i go to Saki to tell me whats best for me....thats trust! Keep up the great work!!
Does it seem to anyone else that the phones get more expensive but the features become fewer? The lack of mico-SD is a non-starter for me. I will wait and get a Note 20 + when I upgrade.
You don't have to wait the Note 20 ultra is already here my dad has it its better than the S21 ultra.
@@archimedes2261 Is it snapdragon or exynos
These aren't more expensive, though. A few hundred cheaper than last year. Not excusing features being removed, but at leat they lowered the price..
@@archimedes2261 Better maybe in some ways, less better in msny more, for the same price, snd the same price as my 2 year old Note 9 512G I got in January 2019. The only main things I can think of that I prefer on my Note 9 is the actual headphone jack, the microSD expansion, and the finger print sensor on the back, but I can live with that. I was going to get another one just like mine, since the battery may be going, because I liked it so much, and them. The Note 20 Ultra 512G, but I could not find any new at Verizon or Samsung. The only new Note 20 Ultra 512G I could find are from several eBay sellers, and you need to pay full price at once.
@@jjacob25101 512gb would be a lot of storage for me I got note 10+ 256gb and only used 26% of storage 😄
21+ because I didn't need the cameras - deciding factors were the glass back and a decent 6.7" size. I don't feel like I'm missing much. (Paying cash really helps sort these issues out imo.)
Great video. Good info. Ur the man. Thanks ! !
Thank you for making this video. It really helped me make my choice on the ultra. I have watched many videos and none it the points like yours.
Nice video Saki but I just pre-ordered the s21 plus 12gb ram 256gb on Samsung Canada.
Absolutely well explained, meticulously broke down very carefully and straight to the point recommendation. Im definitely subscribing.
Thank you for clearing this up I was really on the fence about which phone to get so what I heard is go big or go home. You just gained a new follower. Peace and love
Well organized video, thorough and to the point. Thank you
I have an s10+ with me and I am still happy with its performance. But with your advice sir. Do you think it is time for me to upgrade?
Well my goal was the Samsung FE but I'm considering the S21+ after seeing this video. Thoughts anyone? And excellent video my friend. You are the gold standard. Looking forward to a 200 tips for the new S21 video also....😎
Yep, my wife and I have both decided on the S21 Ultra! Great phone. Great video as always as well. Thanks for the comparisons, really helped in our decision.
How does she like it? I just bought it and liked it except for the size. I talked my husband into using it instead of returning it.
@@snowps1 Shit- thanks for warning me ab the size ! I think I might go with the s21 🤷🏻♀️
Good video dude. You covered all the bases. 👍
Thank you. You explained this better than my carrier did. Going with the Ultra.
S21 plus be like why am I even here 😂
For glass back and larger screen
For the people who don't like curved screens but still want a big screen.
Should I get it
Battery life is strong on the plus. Lighter phone than ultra. Ultra may be bulky and heavy for a phone tbh.
I traded in my s20 plus for the standard s21. The s20 plus was just to big for me and I could stand the curved screen anymore. Screen protector are a hassle to get on it and they just don’t look good. So Samsung gave me 700 dollars for the s20 plus and got the 256gb s21 for 149 dollars. Which was a steal for a new phone for me IMO.
How did you get 700 bucks for your s20 plus?
@@roncee29 that is what samsung is offering on there website right now
@@nikolavonfulton5195 I was on there but they only said my s20 plus was worth 150 trade in, I could sell it for like 8 or 9 hundred myself lol
@@roncee29 I just looked it up on samsung.com and the trade in is 700 on my phone and laptop
@@nikolavonfulton5195 ok thanks I'll look it up again
Great review. Not robotic, but more opinionated. Well done!
Great job, Saki. Always love your work.
I'm still using a Huawei P20 pro that came out over 3 years ago.
The technology developments are interesting, but there aren't any good enough reasons that should make anyone upgrade every two years if their phone is in working order.
Straight to the point, I love it. Here is a like and subscribe from me brutha!
Nice no bs review. Will be going for the ULTRA, just wish the size wasn't so big and something smaller had all the specs.. mostly doing it for the camera and the ram
I'm good with my s20 have 12gb of ram and 128 gb 🙂
Yeah I have the S20 too and to me the S21 feels more like a downgrade than an upgrade
It feels like and upgrade to the S20FE not to the S20
Simple, to the point and exactly what we want to hear! Thank you!!
Earlier i have chosen s 21 plus as i am.using s20 plus now and love curve screen,but after seeing your video push further and changed my mind to s21 ultra.because of better camera and curve screen 😀
My S10 is the winner. 3.5 mm jack, glass back, SD card expandable, take photos while video recording 😄 great resolution
Bro u just CANNOT compare an s10 to the s21ultra .
In today's video? You have already released three today. Not complaining of course,I absolutely love it👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You get what you pay for. I dont buy phones often...but when I do I research and take my time. Good video.
Good video.
Saki is it worth upgrading from S 20 to S 21 please share your thoughts with comparison
Couldn't ask for a better review , thanks mate👌👊
Thanks Saki for the extra clear criterias for choosing the right phone :-)
Although the S21 Ultra is the best of the beast ;-) i'm not sure i need all this in my daily life. I'll surely go for the S21+
Me either s21+ is a practical buy
Totally agree. I don't need all the bells and whistles. The S21 plus is the best choice 👌
Thank you so much for this amazing video 👍
S21 FE seems like a great option if it ever happens 😀
thank your for the very organized and concise presentation. far ahead of anything else I've seen.
Thank you for this video. Really helped me decide to get the ultra.
Just love the way you outline every detail precisely, i Appreciate it bro.👍🏻
Ill be getting the plus but have to have the 256gb, disappointed about the Sd card but ill try to live without it, Great review btw Saki 💪🏾
S20 plus vs s21 plus pleasee
Sakitech, I watched your video, but still can't decide.
I would like to try the square display, but I don't mind paying the extra $200 for a better phone. Problem with that is the Ultra only has the curved screen.
Also, I'm not interested in the S Pen. If I were to get the Ultra, will the phone still work the same? Just really stuck on making a decision.
Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you.
Great video. Can you tell me which case with a built in screen protector is best for the s21 ultra 5G?
Well explained., Thank you.
I love your videos thanks for it and I want to know if to upgrade to s21 ultra or wait for note 21 ultra because for now I have note 10 plus.
What to do?
Thank you for the video and great description. I am just having a big disagreement on what model makes the best because in my opinion as a Samsung user for almost a decade, the practicality which is a combination of MSRP and features goes with the S21 plus. This model has all essential with an acceptable battery size and large screen and even design. I personally don't like to use my phone as my main screen like what I do with TVs and monitors. Also I am not a super professional photographer so on the ultra I don't see anything else to make up the $200 extra. IF you have a practical need for the Spen then you had better go with the Note series vs Galaxy series!
What about the quality screen pixel on the s21ultra, and 12 GB ram?
@@abseiduk The screen quality as our eyes can catch and differentiate is high on all series and definitely much better on the higher end model but not worth the price difference anyway. The RAM does a very different job, though. If the user do multitasking most of the time, then RAM size actually matters and justifies the price difference.
Haha I have the S 21 Plus and I love it!!! But I didn't realize a stylus won't work on the screen and it's essential for what I do. Luckily my carrier allows me to return after a few days. I gotta get the Ultra
Thank you! Super in depth review👍🏼
Thanks for the comparison. I'm going with the ultra .I love to take pics and the camera details look great. I can't wait to get it.
You met Janet? 😱 omg! Lucky
You explained it so well 👏 thank you I'm going for Ultra
Well thanks for you review so after watching your review on the way home from work I went and ordered the S21 ultra 512GB with 16GB of ram cost here in new Zealand was
$2449.00 NZD
$1765.54 USD
was upgrading from a note 10 plus
Best to put your ring light a little higher so it doesn't reflect :) Thank you for the phone review!
very wonderful review. very clear and precise
You left out the built in memory.. are they all the same for the difference in price?
I ordered the plus. I need a flat display again. $300 with my s20 trade in👍
no micro sd broke my heart
Like iphone
I think you're right Im thinking seriously about getting the S21 Ultra!!
my note 10+ has an SD card slot and faster charging. I think I would wait for a better phone. too many negative options on the s21 line-up
Jeez. I just saw so many people commenting about the fact that no expandable memory is a deal breaker for them, which is weird for me. If you never used an sd card in your phone that's not going to make any difference. I mean that if you have anything on sd cards, you are not going to be able to put anything that is on that sd card in these new phones. If you just can't live with 512 GB of storage than just stop downloading every movie you want to see, it's not efficent and only helps when you want to be able to see it offline. Same with music copies, except saving music on your phone is even more useless. That's the best advice I can give about the sd card situation.
I just preordered the S21 Ultra! I simply wanted the best of the best! Thanks, Saki!
Hej Sakitech Personally, I choose the S21 Ultra but agree with others here no memory card expansion storage is a big disappointment. Regarding the S Pen, Samsung will release a S Pen Pro later with with Bluetooth suport so that is nice. But overall, I think Samsung has listened to us and lowered the prices of the S21 series which I think is very good. Keep up the nice work be safe out there have a nice weekend.
Can you use the fast charger that came with my Galaxy Note 10 plus with the Galaxy S21? Thank you for this informative video.
Great video. Unfortunately in Australia the price comparison is $1350 to $1650 to $1950 .... so will have to sell my first born to be able to afford the ultra. But your video has given me enough info to decide the plus is good enough for my needs. thanks.
Samsung let me down big time. I'll be skipping the S21 this year and keep my s20... we will see what happens next year.
How is the camera both indoors n out doors
Why would you want an incremental upgrade? Waste of money 💰
Wise decision....I really feel this is a big downgrade!!!
@@victorchuks3591 No SD Card Even On S21 Ultra itself is a massive downgrade,though no matter the S21 Ultra even support 120 Hz Adaptive refresh rate and QHD+ Highest resolution at same time
s21 camera is crap so cartoony
Sticking with my S20 plus for a few more years. The SD problem is Samsung wanting you to pay a monthly subscription for storage. Hell no
Dear sakki tell me plZ i have note 10 plus.according to u which is best note 10 plus or s20....reply plzzzzz
Great comparison video!
I am a year late here, but I am looking to upgrade to the S21 Plus for a couple of reasons:
1. It is currently on sale at more than 50% off.
2. The S21 Ultra is too large of a phone for me.
I am trying to decide whether it is worth waiting for pricing on the S22 to come down. I do not need a new phone (I currently have a 4-year old LG G7 Thinq), but it would be nice to upgrade to newer tech and faster processing speed.
Probably the best explanation and comparison.
No SD! I'll never change my Note 20 Ultra.
@Κωνσταντίνος ΉπΜκ I have Note 10 Lite
The S21 is the only phone, for me, with an acceptable size.
I have the S20 and wait for the comparisson, if it´s worth to upgrade.
Nice presentation. Thanks
I used to be so exited when these launches happened. But nothing so noticeable now with the s21. Yes if I was getting one I'd go for the s21 ultra. But I've always been a note guy. Had all of them accept the note 7. Last month I upgraded from note 20 ultra to the z fold 2. Main reason new tech and amazing improvements from z fold 2. To be honest I've never looked back. Now I'm just exited about the z fold 3 and I hope and pray it will have s pen and dual sim as in my region we don't have esim yet. Samsung has always been the best in new technologies and that's why if you can id recommend the z fold 2. Awesome phone and awesome battery.
You should mention that S21 overheats very easily after using it a few minutes, so that people wouldn't get disappointed after buying it.....
Mine hasn't...ever
how easy is it to replace the battery if required?
Will it damage its water resistant abilities...?
None of the above. Lack of microSD is a deal killer for me.
True. Unfortunately samsung was one of the last who included expandable storage.
there will be no more sd card slots for Samsung in future
I have the note 8, Will my pen work & fit with the ultra?/ Thanks
Is the s pen from my Note 9 compatible with the S 21 Ultra?
Why the hell did they get rid of micro SD card compatibility?!?
Samsung is now trying to compete and copy Apple in each and every aspect.First they mocked apple for not including the charger,and then itself removed the free charger which usually came out of the box in previous phones,and now they are trying to axe out the SD card support,just as Apple do in their iPhone devices.
@@prasadprabhu3588 it’s sickening. Ripping us off big time.
@@lilycat1694 Absolutely!!!Even though having a note 20 ultra,is OK for me for next few years,but after that if I want an update for next flagship device,I will first check the SD card slot and wireless charging support to it,since these accessories (wireless chargers and SD card) are always available at my home.And if Samsung stupidly axes out SD card permanently even for next upcoming flagship devices like note 21 ultra or S22 ultra(just to compete Apple),it will literally a shame on South Korean Giant,as SD card slot and S-Pen support are major differentiating factor between Samsung flagship devices and Apple's iPhones
@@lilycat1694 it's not a rip off?? They're literally doing it to cut costs which is why the s21 is cheaper at launch than previous galaxy models
Amazingly informative...thanks
Sooop nice the Devices and i can see that the earbuds are the Best and i love the colour😁😍🥰😚😙☺❤⚡👍🏻
Is it worth the upgrade from the s20+ to the s21 ultra
you get too choose from 3 devices, so that the ultra Phone doesnt look so expensive when comparing each other. Dont forget there are other companies which sell their ultra flagship phone between 600 - 1000 dollars.
I have the s20 FE right now and that's the only reason why I'm thinking of switching. I really like my FE most of the time but when the screen issues hit - I want to throw it against the wall. (Even with OS upgrades it still isn't working properly.)
Same problem with me
I was really excited for this phone but after the launch samsung really disappointed 🤧🤧 so many things are missing in this phone compare to s20
Now I'm not gonna buy this phone😔😔
I can't decided between the galaxys 21+ or the ultra ? I tend to watch a lot of TH-cam and love taken pictures of nature which one would be better ? ( btw I have galaxys s10+ right now ).
Ok um so for some reason in my country the preorder price for the s21 ultra(512 gb) is about 1030 usd (plus galaxy buds pro). worth it?
And someone pls answer quick the promo ends tomorrow.
I really wanted the S21 Ultra since its only $200 more for far better camera quality and battery life. I ended up ordering the Plus since everyone said I should :(
No micro SD card expansion even on the S21 Ultra is a major fail.
U get 256gb or 512gb
@@luckysaadaan8617 While that is true, there is still no excuse for Samsung to remove the microSD card slot. They took away one of the main advantages of owning a Galaxy.
Good review better than my college professor in accounting👍 make or buy decision! 👍👍👍S21 or S21Ultra💸📱📲
