Both chipsets are already very powerful to the point that even basic phone tasks are hard to notice the difference. but if you do a comparison on a heavy game with the fps average between two phones then it is gonna be noticable.
Just got the 21 FE today like you im into older flagships,just got this for 190 plus tax outside of a small knick on the bottom right corner ,excellent condition. When I turned it on and checked it was on Android 12 and a March security patch,that told me this phone had not been used ,good deal
Cool comparison. My thoughts: from the front, 21FE definitely looks better with the thinner bezels - the S23FE has got some A series vibes going on with those thick bezels. The camera stills - I preferred the S21 FE! 😃
My upgrade was from an S10e to the S23fe, the loss is on size, my gain was on battery life and Android support. Was worth it? In my case yes, but moving from the S21Fe to the S23Fe is more like a whim in terms of real use, real value, making the most out of your money
From the S21 FE to S23 FE: I would say don’t upgrade and you can wait a year or two. From the S20 FE I would say yes upgrade. The S20 is stuck on Android 13/ One UI 5, and I prefer being on the latest Android version.
I was grateful for my S21 Fe when I saw the S23 Fe. it has a thicker bezer, the specs haven't improved much, and the 60fps camera still can't change lenses.

Scrolling the screen and opening an app tells little about performance. The s23 FE's Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 easily outperforms the S21 FE's Snapdragon 888. If you're only looking to keep it for a year, two at the most, the s21 FE may be a fine, cost-effective choice, but for any longevity the s23 FE makes more sense - better processor, newer battery, more upgrades.
I don't know who else is mad about it, but I'm pretty mad that they made the bezels on the Galaxy S23 fe twice as big as on the S21 fe. I was going to get this one, but I was going to buy the s23fe but now seeing samsung did this I might just buy a galaxy s22! Samsung is the reason the fe line up is not selling.
In europe it will sell with exynos 2200 which was a failure, so I dont't think it will conquer europe... Like literally why Exynos is being sold to europe only we are fucked here
Thank you for confirming the bezel size difference. I already suspected that S23 FE had bigger bezels than S21 FE. I was confused which one to buy but now I have made up my mind., S21 FE all the way.
If you haven't made a purchase yet, I can confirm that the bezels aren't noticeable when holding and using the phone. It was also something I was worried about, but I've had the phone for about 2 weeks now and I forget they're there.
@@Saamir4ab Yeah, which is the reason I got the FE over the s23. I wanted a flagship level phone that I'd pay off over 3 years after using midrange phones for years, and I couldn't get an s21 or any of those, so the FE allowed me to afford a flagship level phone without paying all the money the s23 would have cost (double in my case).

Thank you for this video. I'm gonna keep my S21Fe for a bit longer until something worthy comes out. S21fe is still running strong and after watching your video I just can't find any reasons why I should upgrade.
@@X-starco it's still decent. I had this phone for almost 3 years and it still makes it through the full at with moderate use. I actually find it amazing how well this phone still runs. Bear in mind mine is a snap dragon variant.

I thought FE stand for Fan Edition... I doubt fans wanted thicker bezels
🤣
thats to minimilize green line issue i think
Yeah I kinda fell out of love especially since performance isn't actually much better which I was hyped for
The only problem my s21 fe had was getting hot in the car during summer. Other than that i loved it

I'll stay with my s21 Fe
Same! I don't see anything worth spending more money on with the S23 FE.
You two are the ancient public but I favour s23 Fe because it gives me a smooth gameplay than my father's s21 Fe sd 888+
It also gives me a good camera than s21 fe
How's the battery life of s21 fe pls?
@@X-starco it's just fine please don't worry i use S21 fe the battery is good.

4 years of software updates is all i can say. Justifiable for that reason alone.
From the S21 FE to S23 FE: I would say don’t upgrade and you can wait a year or two.
From the S20 FE I would say yes upgrade. The S20 is stuck on Android 13/ One UI 5, and I prefer being on the latest Android version.
I'd say even on s20 fe hold out one more year. You can go for S24 fe or 512gb discounted S23 plus.
s21fe looks better with the thinner bezels
No one cares or will see the bezels lmfao. S23 fe is way faster, by a lot. Almost a 3 yr newer processor. Proven the s23 fe is the better buy.
The s23 fe has the Galaxy AI feature kow
How is the s23fe exynos performance
I was grateful for my S21 Fe when I saw the S23 Fe. it has a thicker bezer, the specs haven't improved much, and the 60fps camera still can't change lenses.
I prefer Samsung s21fe over samsung s23fe
Watching it from my s21 fe
Add emulation to your benchmarks thats when you will see a dufference in speed.PS2 emulation or wii emulation

Watching on my S21 FE ❤ superb phone at this price ❤
I stay with S10e ... Even Beast in 2024..🫶🏻😍✨almost 5 Years since Launch
I noticed a pretty massive difference in camera quality.
Explain
@@HuCuRuS the contrast is way better along with dynamic range. The most impressive is the visual noise reduction at the zoom level.
Both make artificial fake photos. The difference is very small. Contrast is comical
Only difference is different style of processing, both are good.
where is the link to that psycho trap beat video at 6:02?
Tbh that s10e finger print scanner is WAAAAY better realy missed it when I switch to the 21FE from it!
Just got a S21 FE for 190 excellent condition

the price difference is too less its just better to go for s23fe in my opinion
The difference is not much trust me. And none if you have moderate to high usage.
Upgraded to s23 fe from z fold 3 and even tho the ram is identical its a major speed difference
S23 FE destroys S21FE in terms of design.
S20 fe next plz
Don't buy it the battery life is the worst
In india s23fe is in exynos 2240, which would better option here s21fe or s21fe??
❤ great review of the Fan edition! Can't wait to see ur review of the S24!
Thanks!
Does the Samsung s21 fe, snapdragon version , overheat?
No. Ive been playing genshin impact and it doesnt overheat. The battery doesnt last very long when playing though
s23 fe price is silly the s23 reg is 50ish more, s22 is 2-300 cheaper then a54 right behind it. samsung has too many phones
S22 battery life is crap 😂
@@emilioidk2055 you aren’t wrong but it’s a great value for the 220 i got mine for
S21 FE has better bezels and real proximity sensor. The idea is to improve, not go backwards. S21 FE is nice, except for temps and battery life.
It ain't worth it going from s21 fe. Maybe from the s20fe only if you care about software updates as one ui 5.1 is the last major update for s20fe
Nah those bezzels look awfull, you better buy a new a series
@@David-qj3nvlol you make it seem as if they are taking up the whole screen 🤦🏾♂️
The s23 Fe is just a remodel version of A54, with an extra flagship chipset and camera 🥲
Bezels are bad😢
You misspelled the S21 FE as the S20 FE in the title
Thanks fixed

I own a s21 fe and can I say it looks more premium than the s23 fe
s22 plus is probably best or s21 ultra
@wizace6449 s22 Is good but I dont like exynos processor, I got the s21 fe for SD 888
@@David-qj3nv s22 plus has snap gen 1 and pretty sure sd 888 is older
@wizace6449 in europe it doesn't come with a SD version, at least in my country
Just bought used s21 fe from eBay for 155$
Yeah s21 FE is clearly the better value
Watching on samsung s23 fe and loving it
The s21 FE is significantly better for the price. It also has a newer look!
Lol basically is not the same either its the same or not.
Exynos variant of s21 fe doesn't have app opening closing animations like one on the snapdragon variant. Why's like that?
I feel like the s23 fan edition is gonna be 2024's bust of the year.
Not likey

Why my s21 fe dont have the blur effect transition when i close and exit app to the homescreen?
S21 fe is better in this price range
s21 fe or s23 is best for gaming
I want to change mi IPhone XS, which one would you recommend? S21FE ($350) or S23FE ($360)
S23fe if it's snapdragon else s21fe 888

Yes you did made the right choice with the regular s23
Of coarse you did! That's a no brainer!!
