I have the 16gb RAM version. This phone is a beast. Literally craps on a lot of newer phones now day. With the playstore and galaxy store, there are so many great -FREE- apps for video editing, and power house usage. It was also promised updates for a good amount of years (I think 2 more years from now). Battery is not the best, but it can be based on heavy usage. I had an iPhone 13 pro Maxx, and got rid of it immediately. Could not come close to this device. It's considered expensive as well because it obviously still holds value because of its overall quality. Other than the battery depleting, this phone gets an A+. Samsung really needs to start making 16gb ram phones again, especially for heavy users like myself. Hopefully they do with the S24.
I do agree on beast phone. For the ram, it is useful for.powwr users,but we also have to consider that android gets more and more optimized removing the need for a lot of ram
I went from Pixel 6 Pro like an idiot for a regular S22, and now to S21 Ultra. With the swaps, I lost almost 180$, but now I have the best phone of them. S22 is small, feel cheap, screen is washed out, speakers are loud but suck in quality, the 120Hz is choppy, even tho it has the newer exynos 2200 and S21U has exynos 2100 (cant explain it). P6P had more bass, better cam software, and imo nicer squarish screen, but the S21u is louder, better for podcast audio, battery lasts almost 2h SOT more with exynos!!!, screen is MUCH brighter, 0.1 inch bigger, taller for better reading and split screen etc. also, matte black on back no fingerprints, ultrasonic hyper fast fingerprint reader instead of the laggy slow one on p6p, longer support I guess for OS releases....
@@Darklight727 it depends on what are your preferences in OS. I'm currently trying to use iPhone, but I can see that I got used to a lot to Android. Both s23 and iPhone 14 are great devices. However if you are looking at any of those you should compare pro max with s23 ultra and not the regular one
Selling my Pixel 7 Pro and bought a 16GB 512GB S21 Ultra from Ebay's certified refurbished store in excellent condition for $539. Comes with a one year warranty. I'm pretty stoked.
@@ilya_played S21 Ultra has the slimmer design and more rounded edges so I can one hand it easier than the Pixel. The Pixel software is still pretty buggy. When I locked the phone the screen would flash bright white/green which is jarring in a darks environment, there were also issues with the UI crashing at inopportune times. Moving to Android 14 Beta solved a lot of those issues, but came with a host of new ones too with other stability problems. Pixels selfie cam is not that great while the S21 Ultra has a better camera than the S22 Ultra. The main thing I dont like is really subjective but I hate how a naked Pixel Pro feels. The glossy back slides off of everything and makes my hands sweat. The aluminum frame is also extremely easy to scratch. Pixels automations are basically non-existent compared to Bixby Routines. The S21 Ultra had around the same battery life. The S21 Ultra has far superior speakers. The Pixel takes better still photos but GCam on the S21 Ultra works pretty well. Good Lock also offers an immense amount of granular tweak-ability to the UI on Samsung meanwhile you cant even get rid of the useless At a Glance panel on the Pixel launcher. Samsung also has a call screening feature rolling out and many once exclusive Google features are being rolled out to other devices on Google Photos. I could list off a few more but I am at work.
I did exactly the same. Overall the S21 Ultra is much better than any Pixel, though honestly I miss the camera from the P7Pro. But no regrets, not for a second. It is way more pleasant using the S21 Ultra!
Even if it's a flagship phone from two years ago, it's still a synthesis of the technologies of that time. It's cool that you can buy it for a price in the $400 range. When I was on vacation in Barcelona, the night photos and videos I took with my iPhone were full of ghosting, so I threw most of them away and ruined my vacation. After that, I changed my main phone to Samsung's Galaxy S23 Ultra, and I'm very satisfied because I couldn't find any ghosting in both photos and videos. When using Apple, I felt like I was locked in a well-decorated prison, but Samsung's One UI has great freedom and convenience thanks to free and sensuous custom settings, and Samsung's applications are more reliable than any other company. Besides, the after-sales service is incomparably better than Apple's. I have been watching Apple for a long time, which is crazy about money and taking huge profits and profit, so I bought Samsung this time and opened my eyes to another new world. As the iPhone increasingly looks like an old-fashioned old man's phone, Apple will have to become more open and creative for consumers, away from the operating system that imprisons them and makes them suffocate within it.
I do agree with you on the "old-fashioned phone". It is simple to use and once you know how to use an iPhone you can use any of those, but it is limiting. Apple is trying to go back to the creative mindset with brining pack SD reader in the MacBook and releasing FinalCut on iPad. iPhone should become more customizable for sure
Got an S23 Ultra since March but still have my S21 Ultra. It is really an amazing phone. Performance, display, design etc are great. But the battery life is really an issue. Gaming was never really a thing on my S21 Ultra which is sad.
@@ilya_played Yeah nice idea with the emulation machine, should try it out. I really like the new S23 Ultra. I notice the difference in performance, even if the S21U is still fast and enjoyable. Here in Europe we had the Exynos version but now finally the SD 8 Gen 2 with the S23U. Should be great together with the longer update support in the future... Battery life is much better. S Pen cool feature, nice to have. The design is different as you probably know. Its awesome but the S21U has a smoother handling overall.
Just ordered a new s21 ultra from a marketplace in my country. I excited to switch from a huawei mate 20 pro (wich still working even after almost 5 years of use with no real issue, amazing phone with specs and alien built quality) . Hope the camera will be as stunning as people say it is
Congrats on the purchase! The camera is indeed amazing. If you want to tweak more with camera you can look for a gcam apk for s 21 ultra. The algorithm is great in there

im owner of s21 ultra... still amazing... i think for now is the best overall phone even compare to s23 ultra.. Its 2 years old and still is amazing...
It is a great phone. I'm currently using the s23 ultra and to be fair, the design on the s21 is better in my option. The s pen, however, is a great addition
I just bought that phone for $398 US, I bougth a battery for $15 original, I paid $25 for a battery replacement. For a total of $440 with a new battery, great deal if you ask me.
I just bought a refurbished S21 in good condition. I looks great. Battery life was a main concern. Life of the battery is important. I couldn't get info on this from the seller. I'm using my experiance with my S8 +; which still works but has problems like not ring incoming calls. It's last 6 years. Paid $800. A little over a $100 a year. My S21 is 2 years old so I my get 4 years out of it. And therfore, in the end, I may pay about $112.50 a year. If this be the case I may sell or trade this S21 much sooner, as apposed to what I did with S8+. Like maybe in 2 years when the S21 is 4 years old. T4TV. Having to charge the battery sometime during the day is a l so important.
Yes, the battery life is a bit hard to get from the Samsung phone. But it is a good thing that you calculate the cost of the phone over the year! I might start doing that too
For sure about the phone ! I can do the video for sure ! In the meantime I can upload the lock screen pic to my twitter (that's a photo I took myself and added a filter in the wallpaper setting)
I still have my s21 ultra and i love it. I just can't see me trading it in. I also have s20 plus and s23 ultra. The s21 ultra is still a beast of a phone and still feels as premium since the first day i got it. And battery life has been very acceptional. I just turn off adaptive refresh rate and leave it on standard. Trust me it makes a big difference on battery life. And besides the 120hz refresh rate you wont even notice its disable. Its really not a big deal or a big game changer
That's great ! I still whish I didn't trade in my s21 I miss the design a lot. In regards to the 120hz it is a good point. I personally prefer the smoothness of 120hz but it could be useful to turn it off when you need to save some battery
fun, I already had many smartphones, I always wanted to change every 1 or 2 years, since the 21 ultra came out until now I haven't bought another one, I don't feel the need to have a better smartphone, whether it's photos or fluidity because this is the best that should last another 5 years.
It is a great smartphone for sure. Also the hardware and software got so far in the last couple of years that phones can still do everything even 3-5 years later
Hmmm the exynos 2100 was no worse than the snapdragon 888 which was known as a chip that overheats and uses battery more than it should.Neither chip was very good the snapdragon gen 2 was an amazing improvement but also a lot was related to software to the exynos 2100 was poor at first on android 12 but android 14 has settled it right down and improved it by a tremendous amount,its more stable,uses less battery and generates less heat.These Samsung s21 ultra variants are fantastic value for money if you can find a good one like i have and the camera system is extremely impressive.
Try to see the device in person if you have an option to do that and maybe ask for the seller to check the battery and let you know the health. Also get a case !
I use - Samsung's GoodLock with Lockstar for custom Alwas on Display - Home Up for some grid changes on the home screen and removal of text under icons - One Hand Operation for customizing gestures And just the color picker from the Android 13 to match icons with the background
My report 2 weeks later. As I mentioned I recently got the refurbished s21 from amazon. The blk paint around the edges is wearing off. This doesn't look so good. The phone seems to be working fine. T4TV
@@ilya_played I now have a Supcase. Seems to be a great case. A lot of rubber inside & outside, for a good bounce. But it is bulky. I'm getting use to it and liking it.
Unfortunately I don't have the s23 plus but tests show that it has 12 hours of screen on time. S21 Ultra has a bigger capacity of the battery but I think it had a bit less screen time (around 9-10)
A lot of people are saying that Asus Rog Phone 6 pro manages to get 15 hours of screen time. Plus it has a quick 65W wired charging. iPhone 14 pro max is also quite good for the screen time according to reviews
That's pretty poor battery life considering the device has a fairly large battery inside of it. Even two years later that seems kind of bad. I guess that was always one of the pain points of the devices running the 888 chipset though is that they didn't get great battery.
There I use a normal S21, I never have less than 6 hours of SOT, I had an S21 Ultra not so long ago (I gave it away), and I never had less than 8 hours of SOT with him, I really wonder how you manage to have just 2 hours of SOT with this smartphone 🤔
I had the S21 Ultra with the SD888 and it got better battery life than the S22 Ultra with the SD8 Gen 1. Same use patterns and apps. Can't say it was too bad.
Never could really like this phone. No S-pen, rounded corners. Looks like an updated S9+. I'd rather square corners, very minimum curve or flat screen.
I think it is all preference. Now with s23U as my main phone I do enjoy having an s-pen, but some people think it is a gimmic. And for the square corners and flat screen, the s24U and probably the upcoming s25u ticks your boxes
I'd personally recommend the s21 ultra over any pixel atm for just the build quality, 120hz thats actually frequent. Pixel 6/6pro build was bad and 7 is better the 7 pro goes down in quality id say twice lol. Buttons falling out and camera spontaneously cracking. I personally use and recommend the s21 ultra but i prefer iPhone for consistency and overall build quality of iPhone pro vs Ultra Samsung id rather have stainless steel than aluminum.
Never heard anyone say that about the pixels 💀, I'd say the chance of that happening it's very small (instead making it seem that 90% of the time it will just break because whatever). Overall they are pretty similar smartphones, only REAL differences would be one having a better camera shots most of the time, and the other one being more versatile and trustable with the ultra wide. Apart from that, both of them are pretty similar phones... Great screen on both (s21 ultra will be better but it won't be a deciding factor), battery on both is ok I guess, they both have some slow ass charging, they both would be running smoothly, etc etc. At the end it will come down to if you prefer Samsung's UI and a more versatile camera with better recording, or getting better shots out of the main camera and the Pixel's software.
I can imagine, I heard that the taxes are up to 70% on electronics. Can't imagine how expensive the phones are. I think Huawei might be on a lower price as they should be making some of their models in Brazil

@@reversechannel8749 Hey I just posted the 3x portrait video on my twitter !
I wish to have it or s21 plus
use my normal s21 just as good
That is great !
I somehow got one below $300 from ebay last week.
That is an amazing price for sure. Congrats on the device !
New or renewed?
Love my s21u
(Cant afford s23u)
S21 Ultra is still Ultra ! So you are not missing as much
Watch from pakistan 🇵🇰 dude
I'd personally recommend the s21 ultra over any pixel atm for just the build quality, 120hz thats actually frequent.
Pixel 6/6pro build was bad and 7 is better the 7 pro goes down in quality id say twice lol. Buttons falling out and camera spontaneously cracking. I personally use and recommend the s21 ultra but i prefer iPhone for consistency and overall build quality of iPhone pro vs Ultra Samsung id rather have stainless steel than aluminum.
Never heard anyone say that about the pixels 💀, I'd say the chance of that happening it's very small (instead making it seem that 90% of the time it will just break because whatever).
Overall they are pretty similar smartphones, only REAL differences would be one having a better camera shots most of the time, and the other one being more versatile and trustable with the ultra wide. Apart from that, both of them are pretty similar phones... Great screen on both (s21 ultra will be better but it won't be a deciding factor), battery on both is ok I guess, they both have some slow ass charging, they both would be running smoothly, etc etc.
At the end it will come down to if you prefer Samsung's UI and a more versatile camera with better recording, or getting better shots out of the main camera and the Pixel's software.
man i don't speak english, but i still use a fucking galaxy s7, the prices of cell phones are very high here in brazil
I can imagine, I heard that the taxes are up to 70% on electronics. Can't imagine how expensive the phones are. I think Huawei might be on a lower price as they should be making some of their models in Brazil
@@ilya_played it's very rare to see a huawei around here, there are a lot of xiaomi around here but i don't trust the brand
good bro🥰 i will hope increase subscribers
Thank you so much 😀
Iphone still costs more than 2000$ at that time
Hey Dawiddoestechstuff
