You're welcome!! Maybe the announced upcoming camera update might change things. I'm not very hopeful it will change drastically but I might be wrong. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
I’m surprised that the s21 ultra is holding strong against the s24 ultra, and in most cases I like better the performance of s21 ultra!!! Only the stabilisation and the night time scenarios are superior to s24 ultra, but not the front facing camera quality though !!! I’m s21 ultra owner and I think I’m gonna keeping it for longer then I thought!!! Nice job 👍
@wrightbytes I don't think so. Everything is in auto mode. The only thing I adjust (reduce to 0) is the face smoothness on the front facing camera. The rest stays untouched.
Yep, still great and way better than any current mid ramge phone from Samsung and flagship phones from other companies. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Thanks mate!! Yes, the S21 Ultra is still solid. There is a camera update for the S24 Ultra coming. Not sure how much the camera will really improve. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
I'm still keeping my s21 ultra. It's very fast, and I get through the day with my battery. The camera is still great. There is no need for a change here
Brother, thank you so much for this video. You just made me save money. My plan was to get the sg s24 ultra by tonight, but watching your video I don't see much of a difference between s24 ultra and my s21 Ultra. Thank you🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 God bless 🙌
You're welcome!! Glad it's been helpful to you. In any case, get the S23 Ultra and save yourself more money. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Похоже мобильные камеры приблизились к своему пику развития и складывается ощущение, что производителям лишь остается играть с фокусными расстояниями и программными настройками контраста и гаммы. Каждый раз разница становится всё менее заметна. И никакой увеличенный сенсор не исправит проблему из за физических размеров смартфонов. Они оба хороши днем и оба плохо снимают в темное время суток. Давно смотрю ваши обзоры, спасибо за отличные видео!))
Thanks mate!! I appreciate your support. Yes, phone cameras might have reached its peak and manufacturers are just trying to make up for using software but even so might be hard to pull off. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Great work as always brother, keep it up 👍👏 I guess that the S21 ultra is a better deal, and it still holds up well even against the newer phones . For me the S21 ultra still has the best design and form factor up to date ❤ And for the s24 ultra samsung should start immediately rolling some updates to fix major problems and I guess they should let director view return as a camera mode !
Just like I thought, the S21U is better overall except for the Selfie video because of the donkey "Exynos chip" I bet that the S21U Snapdragon version will blow the S24U out of the water which is really shame since the difference against the S24U is 3 years! The huge price gap for the S24U doesn't reflect the real quality difference! I think you should compare the S24U against the older flagship S Ultras again after the alleged camera update from Samsung to give the S24U a last chance otherwise, it's not worth a penny IMO! Thank you brother for these entertaining videos with your lovely music on them!
You're welcome, mate!! Thank you for watching it. Yes, I'm planning to do the comparison vs Note 10 plus and S10 5G. I'm a little bit skeptical about the actual improvements the update will bring. The reason for that is that Samsung has taken longer than usual, which could be a sign that it hasn't really figured out the trick. I'm hope I'm dead wrong and the update brings the much needed improvements. Stay safe.
Thanks very much for doing this. I have the 21 ultra and have been wondering whether to upgrade as I like my pics. I compete with my wife 😊 who is a better photographer than me and I recently splashed out and got her the iPhone 15 pro max. Mainly because the iPhone 12 she had was pants at zoom. Based on this I am really not convinced it is worth it yet for me to upgrade. So much hype about the S24 ultra too so I am surprised at the reality. Looked like the S24 beat the S21 in some cases but also and equally vic-versa. I guess what we are seeing is that they are all getting so good it is getting harder and harder for them to improve. Maybe they should do a x30 optical or something. Love the approach you take. Not much commentary but just pure evidence.
I can't believe how well it's still doing up against the new mighty 24 ultra. The s21 ultra has always been absolutely horrendous with night shots and the quality on the selfie camera is starting to show age too. Great review keep them coming bro 👍
Both are neck to neck. Surprised to see S21 Ultra still holds its power compared to the latest model. I got my S21 Ultra just a week back and after watching this video I am happy.
Good evening, Very good video as usual, I find that the S21 is still very good compared to the new S24, anyway the night videos are not very good even with the new models, I think that a lot of people film during the day and not much at night. Very good work.
Thanks mate!! Yes, the S21 Ultra is still solid. Yes, it's also true that most people take videos during the day but that should not be an excuse to not improve the night time capabilities too. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Well done. Thanks for your excellent efforts, I was wondering about 'upgrading' my S21 Ultra to the S24 Ultra but thanks to you I will be sticking with my S21.
Great comparison video my friend, i have the s22ultra, but i use my old s21ultra as just a camera, no apps other than system apps its in a neewer cage with a vnd filter and a comica vm10 pro mic and its just used as a camera it does an amazing job 👌
the S21 appears to be better on a few tests, but overall, the S24 is just that extra bit better for most of the things I want - the highest possible resolution for detail, often outdoor zoom shots. Overall, the S24 wins for my purposes. I noticed on the video panning that the S21 was a lot more jerky. Night mode interior was startlingly worse in almost every case on the S24. The S24 outdoor video 10x zoom at 16:27 is wildly better than the S21. But then oddly at 18:48 close up the the Kebab sign, the S21 wins. But, is it worth the purchase price for the gain? I'll have to ponder. Thanks for such a great, detailed video.
Watching from Brazil 🇧🇷 Great comparison! You're doing a great job! It looks like the S21 Ultra, in some situations, has more vivid colors, while the S24 offers more contrast in ambient lighting.
I am looking to upgrade my s21 ultra exynos edition is it worth upgrading to the s23 ultra or the s24 ultra but not really concerned about the ai features?
Check these 2 videos and judge based on your own likings and needs. ua-cam.com/video/TbNk80UbJyk/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/P0KVCgE2aC4/v-deo.html Thanks for watching this video. Stay safe.
So I just made this exact switch, except my s21 ultra was a snapdraagon 888. I think the 21 ultra is a sleeker, lighter and somewhat more slippery phone without a case. The main reasons I upgraded is that I knew I only had 1 more year of security updates and the deals from verizon were just too good to pass up, the s25u might not have the same discounts. And in a year I'd have no choice but to take anything available. The camera is comparable, but with a decent improvement in a lot of areas. The best part is the insane Gorilla Glass Armor the kills light reflections straight on. The speakers are also a decent upgrade. I thought the processor would feel much faster, but for the apps I use, it is only slightly better. I took good care of the s21u battery and it was still great, but the 24u is just a little bit better. In all I'm happy with the upgrade, but would still be satisfied with the s21u.
I was like "wow, there isn't much difference between the two" then the night mode shots arrived. S24u really killed it. Major improvement. Also are these exynos or snapdragon varients?
Surprised with the s21U. It is not that the s24U has not been better, but that the s21 is a great great phone, even after 3 years. Soto, great video! But I have one suggestion, if I may. You could save your time and cut off the part of video in 1080p. I think most people do not use this resolution anymore, so, it could save your time in the next videos. Thank you very much! Bless!
Hi. Thanks for the tip. Not long ago I put 2 polls on the community tab about what video resolutions people use the most during the day and at night. You'd be surprised to see the amount of people that chose the 1080p even at 30fps. 1080p video quality has improved massively and takes up less space, important now given that there is no microsd card support, especially in flagships. I myself use it often when it's not an important video that I'm not planning to keep for long but I still want it to have good quality. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
You are right!!!! Glad I didnt replaced my Old s21 Ultra, Because I almost did it, But instead I used my money for DJI Neo Drone, Thank you for showing this Sir Soto!!! I cant believe s21 ultra can compete with 1000 dollars more expensive phone! God Bless!
If I owned a S21 Ultra and it was working well, I would not be changing until the main OS updates ended. There were a few thing that the S21 Ultra was not as good as the S24 Ultra, but also the other way. Apparently there are some updates coming to the S24 Ultra, including camera fixes. S24 Ultra edges stabilisation in a couple of situations, but the S21 Ultra did well.
Stabilization better. Slightly less blown out face. However the 10x optical out performs the 10x digital. Love my s21U. Will trade only for s23U on a killer sale.
Yes, it goes back and forth when it's not supposed to be like this. The S24 ultra is supposed to dominate across the board. We'll see about the update but I'm a little bit skeptical about big improvements to the camera. Thanks, once again, for watching the video. Stay safe.
Hmm imo the 10x s24 looked better everytime. s21 still looked good of course. It will only get better in the update thats coming in a week. @@MyFriendlyPup
selfie cam of the s24 very detailed, face is very clear compared to s21. night mode is also superior to the s21. honestly the s24 ultra is a big upgrade compared to the s21u but $1300 usd phone should be VS $300 usd value of the s21 ultra now... really I would have to choose the s21u and keep the $1000 usd for a Honda scooter or invest in stocks
I am in the market of purchasing either the S21 Ultra or the S24 Ultra and this terrific video helped me make my decision; I will be going with the S21 Ultra...absolutely terrific shots!
@@RockstahRolln Thanks mate!! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. You should watch iphone 16 Pro Max vs Galaxy S21 Ultra video I recently released. ua-cam.com/video/4LATeQGVSCk/v-deo.html Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Hello Brother , please do Camera Battle between Samsung S24 (Non Ultra) VS Samsung S21 Ultra camera comparison at day and night especially for recording videos
I actually got the 21 ultra several months ago. Refurbished. Figured I'll try it & move up from there. S21 ultra has been the best phone that I have owned, does everything I need it to! Next option was going to be the 23 ultra or 24 ultra but watching this video makes me not want to upgrade. S21 ultra is 🔥 the lastest up-date it got, I can actually hold down the home button & do a screen search! Pretty cool!
Very interesting thanks ! And surprising... In daylight videos the S21 ultra is slightly better on colours and depth of field, actually the only case I saw the S24U better is when you use periscope lens.
I LOVE my S21 Ultra. Would definitely have kept using it, but I dropped it and cracked the screen. Hobbled along fine for several more months but forgot to get a protective cover and dropped it again this week. Ugh. Now the top half inch won't respond. Bought the s24 Ultra yesterday. Really, really hoping it will be a great update. Still tempted to try and get the glass replaced on my 21 ultra.
I own S21U, can get S24U for free through my company. But to be honest, I am quite dissapointed how similar the S24 is despite being 3 generations newer. When comparing pure technical specs of the cameras, the S21 actually seems a bit better when it comes to secondary cameras. So I guess I'll just wait what the S25U will bring to the table.
S21,22,23 & 24 all phones r always good, but whenever new mobile arrives/launch, after update all previous phones gets slow, I think they r doing purposely, so that their new launch mobile gets higher sale.
I wouldn't be surprised. Though phones get slower after a while because the accumulation of apps and data sometimes running in the background not necessarily because manufacturers slowing down on purporse. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Front camera in s21 ultra looks like cod in ps3 vs cod in ps5 for the s24 ultra, it really puts some blur around the eyes vs the sharpness in the detail of the 24
Samsung is trying to fix the over sharpening, but S24 Ultra shots look a bit too soft. S21 Ultra, S22 Ultra and S23 Ultra surely are still very nice phones and since the software update support of S24 Ultra is for 7 years, you can grab one 2 or 3 years later. No rush for getting the latest phone since it doesn't necessarily seem the greatest.
I have moved from S21U to S24U (mostly because my S21U battery couldn't work for day, S24U now still 30-50% left at the evening with the same use scenarious). You may see not much changes in daylight photos without cropping in images but when light is not enough S21 is much noisier, also night time photos on S21U sometimes may take 3-4 sec while S24U takes 1 sec and with less noise at result. Also 10x optical zoom on 21 is much darker and then 5x/10x on 24. Stabilisation on 10x zoom is also much better on 24. Very good comparison but I think it would be great to include crop images to see the differences/noise level of images.
Thanks mate!! I don't do cropping because it's not how the vast majority of people see pics. That would also involve a little bit of explanation, therefore making the video longer and showing less pics in different scenarios which I prefer. The S24 Ultra needs a big update. 4K 60fps at night is pretty bad and it needs a lot of artificial light to perform decently. The 5X/10X zoom without night mode is incredibly dark, the darkest I've seen in a Samsung phone. It tends to overexpose pics and wash out videos. The S21 Ultra is 3 years older and it does produce better shots especially on flowers to my surprise. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Thanks for making the comparison. I have used the S21 ultra for 2.5 years. Before watching your video, i almost made the decision to buy the new S24 ultra, but now I am in doubt. It seems that photo quality of S21 ultra is better than that of S24 ultra, this makes me really want to stay with S21 ultra. However, I have another concern that is the battery life. After being used for almost 3 years, my S21 ultra is unable to last for the whole day, so I am still considering whether to go for a new S24 ultra or not.
You're welcome mate. It's all down to your onw personal needs. The S24 Ultra's battery life is super good but I wouldn't personally get it because of that or the cameras. If money is not an issue or you get a good plan through your carrier why not? Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
I may be the only one, but I don't see any notable advancements that deserve to put $1300 into this S24 Ultra instead of $350 for an S21 Ultra (Snapdragon preferred, the Snapdragon model is really better than the Exynos model in video, especially at night) 🤷🏽♂️ Except maybe the default color science which has improved a bit, but is easily correctable on the S21 Ultra. I much prefer the contrast management and exposure of the S21 Ultra, and I'll say it again, the S21 Ultra is the Ultra that handles exposure and neon lights best especially at night. The S24 Ultra with its 7 years of Android update will become a bargain in 2-3 years when it costs $400, and Samsung will have corrected many of its teething problems in the meantime. Ps: I think that on 95% of night photos in 10X zoom, the S21 Ultra used the main sensor and not the dedicated sensor. 🙏🏽
This video is amazing, compliments, I realised that there is not too much difference between the 2 series, even of course here in Italy we have exynos and in other countries Snap. I bought S23 ultra because I am tired of exynos and it is a bit faster.
It's all a scam. The S24 looks the same as the S21 when it came out..They just lower The Quality of the old phones and give you the same "new" quality every year. Go back and look at the S21 quality when it first launched. Same as the S24
I'm not sure about that. I don't think the S21 Ultra has been downgraded over the years, possibly the opposite. The issue is the S24 Ultra not performing as expected. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Surprise to see how good s21ultra exynos perform compare to s24ultra sdg3..for sure sd888 on s21u will perform better since i using two of this s21ultra..sd888 really perform better especially on 10x zoom
Exynos s21ultra did well or could it be the new camera software updates, I guess the snapdragon variant should be excellent! S21ultra still a flagship in 2024. Thank you Soto-tek for the good work as always. Much appreciation from Kenya🇰🇪
I already own a S21 ultra and didn't update to a S24 ultra bcz the camera update wasn't that great will buy a S25 Ultra when it come but Samsung should update the main camera and Ultrawide camera sensor each year on its flagship
IMO the s24 was equal or better in every test. Low light of course it blew the s21 away. There wont be a big leap until samsung goes with a 1 inch sensor. A lot of improvements right now have come from software and more powerful processors to be able to do more processing in less time.
Well, the S24 Ultra has one of the most, if not the most, powerful processor right now and it's not really performing as it's supposed to across the board. To my eyes, it doesn't really blow the S21 Ultra away in low light but it's all a matter of personal preference. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Low light was objectively a massive difference. The s21 would sometimes be brighter but that does not equal quality. Tons of noise. The ultrawide definitely needs an upgrade to improve low light, though. Yeah, it should get even better with updates and leverage more of that powerful chip for the processing photos and videos. @@Soto-Tech2020

Great comparison! You're doing a great job! It looks like the S21 Ultra, in some situations, has more vivid colors, while the S24 offers more contrast in ambient lighting.
Thanks mate!! Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
I am looking to upgrade my s21 ultra exynos edition is it worth upgrading to the s23 ultra or the s24 ultra but not really concerned about the ai features?

Thanks for watching this video. Stay safe.
So I just made this exact switch, except my s21 ultra was a snapdraagon 888. I think the 21 ultra is a sleeker, lighter and somewhat more slippery phone without a case. The main reasons I upgraded is that I knew I only had 1 more year of security updates and the deals from verizon were just too good to pass up, the s25u might not have the same discounts. And in a year I'd have no choice but to take anything available. The camera is comparable, but with a decent improvement in a lot of areas. The best part is the insane Gorilla Glass Armor the kills light reflections straight on. The speakers are also a decent upgrade. I thought the processor would feel much faster, but for the apps I use, it is only slightly better. I took good care of the s21u battery and it was still great, but the 24u is just a little bit better. In all I'm happy with the upgrade, but would still be satisfied with the s21u.
Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
If you think that the S25U will not have great special offers, the the Marketing Departement got you
I was like "wow, there isn't much difference between the two" then the night mode shots arrived. S24u really killed it. Major improvement.
Also are these exynos or snapdragon varients?
Excelente video mi hermano, podrias hace uno del note 20 ultra vs s24 ultra?
Por supuesto. Ya estoy trabajando en eso. Gracias por mirar el video. Saludos.
Surprised with the s21U. It is not that the s24U has not been better, but that the s21 is a great great phone, even after 3 years. Soto, great video! But I have one suggestion, if I may. You could save your time and cut off the part of video in 1080p. I think most people do not use this resolution anymore, so, it could save your time in the next videos. Thank you very much! Bless!
Hi. Thanks for the tip. Not long ago I put 2 polls on the community tab about what video resolutions people use the most during the day and at night. You'd be surprised to see the amount of people that chose the 1080p even at 30fps. 1080p video quality has improved massively and takes up less space, important now given that there is no microsd card support, especially in flagships. I myself use it often when it's not an important video that I'm not planning to keep for long but I still want it to have good quality. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
@@Soto-Tech2020 wow, I did not know that. Good to know! Bless!
I preferred the 1080@30
It saves my storage. Besides, 4k is preferred if you have the 4k screen or if you'll play it in 4k monitor.
Could you make a video talking about raw video on android? (MotionCam)
Not sure about that but I'll think about it. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Thank u sir I was waiting for this video
You're welcome mate!! Thank you for watching the video. Stay safe.
You are right!!!! Glad I didnt replaced my Old s21 Ultra, Because I almost did it, But instead I used my money for DJI Neo Drone, Thank you for showing this Sir Soto!!! I cant believe s21 ultra can compete with 1000 dollars more expensive phone! God Bless!
If I owned a S21 Ultra and it was working well, I would not be changing until the main OS updates ended. There were a few thing that the S21 Ultra was not as good as the S24 Ultra, but also the other way. Apparently there are some updates coming to the S24 Ultra, including camera fixes. S24 Ultra edges stabilisation in a couple of situations, but the S21 Ultra did well.
Stabilization better. Slightly less blown out face. However the 10x optical out performs the 10x digital. Love my s21U. Will trade only for s23U on a killer sale.
Yes, it goes back and forth when it's not supposed to be like this. The S24 ultra is supposed to dominate across the board. We'll see about the update but I'm a little bit skeptical about big improvements to the camera. Thanks, once again, for watching the video. Stay safe.
@@Soto-Tech2020agree'd makes me split to upgrade and it should be a no brainer.
Hmm imo the 10x s24 looked better everytime. s21 still looked good of course. It will only get better in the update thats coming in a week. @@MyFriendlyPup
selfie cam of the s24 very detailed, face is very clear compared to s21. night mode is also superior to the s21. honestly the s24 ultra is a big upgrade compared to the s21u but $1300 usd phone should be VS $300 usd value of the s21 ultra now... really I would have to choose the s21u and keep the $1000 usd for a Honda scooter or invest in stocks
I was going to upgrade to s25 next year but after watching your video I think I will stick with my s21 thank you for the upload
I don't think so but who knows, the S25 Ultra might have sustantial cameras improvements. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Скажите пожалуйста, вы обновили 21ультра до 6.0. Стоит ли его обновлять? Спасибо за отличный обзор.
You're welcome mate!! Yes, of course mate!! Since November or December. Thank you for watching the video. Stay safe.
International thanks for you! I get love my 21ultra more after that video))
sorry for my english)))
Thanks mate and thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Is the s21 ultra exynos variant? Please reply sir
Exynos. I always put the chipset at the beginning of the video with the rest of the cameras specs. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Sticking to my s21 ultra for now. Thanks!
can you do a oneplus 12 vs s24 ultra camera test
I wish mate. Sadly, I don't have the OnePlus 12. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Awesome video and comparison! Thank you for taking the time to do so. Your neighborhood also looks amazing!
You're welcome mate!! Yes, it's a nice quiet area. Thank you for watching the video and stay safe.
I am in the market of purchasing either the S21 Ultra or the S24 Ultra and this terrific video helped me make my decision; I will be going with the S21 Ultra...absolutely terrific shots!
@@RockstahRolln Thanks mate!! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. You should watch iphone 16 Pro Max vs Galaxy S21 Ultra video I recently released.

Hello Brother , please do Camera Battle between Samsung S24 (Non Ultra) VS Samsung S21 Ultra camera comparison at day and night especially for recording videos
Hi mate. Sadly I don't have that S24 model. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
@@Soto-Tech2020 Hello Brother , could you record a video using variable aperture on Samsung Note 10 Plus ?
I request you to make a camera comparison Between Note 20 Ultra and S24 Ultra 🙏🙏
Working on it now mate. Coming after the next one which is vs Pixel 8 Pro. Stay tuned. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
I am watching from Bangladesh, thank you for explaining in a very nice way
You're welcome!! Thank you for watching the video. Stay safe.
Hi, can you make a comparison video for stock camera vs gcam port on s21 ultra..
Not sure about that. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
I actually got the 21 ultra several months ago. Refurbished. Figured I'll try it & move up from there. S21 ultra has been the best phone that I have owned, does everything I need it to! Next option was going to be the 23 ultra or 24 ultra but watching this video makes me not want to upgrade. S21 ultra is 🔥 the lastest up-date it got, I can actually hold down the home button & do a screen search! Pretty cool!
Yeah mate!! You can keep it for at least one more year if not more. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Very interesting thanks ! And surprising... In daylight videos the S21 ultra is slightly better on colours and depth of field, actually the only case I saw the S24U better is when you use periscope lens.
I LOVE my S21 Ultra. Would definitely have kept using it, but I dropped it and cracked the screen. Hobbled along fine for several more months but forgot to get a protective cover and dropped it again this week. Ugh. Now the top half inch won't respond. Bought the s24 Ultra yesterday. Really, really hoping it will be a great update. Still tempted to try and get the glass replaced on my 21 ultra.
Yes, the S21 Ultra is still very solid. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
The S24 ultra has more refined photos than the S21 ultra tho. But the 21 ultra is still kicking
Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Could you make another versus/comparison between these 2 but using GCAM?
Not sure about that. I'll think about it. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
I own S21U, can get S24U for free through my company.
But to be honest, I am quite dissapointed how similar the S24 is despite being 3 generations newer. When comparing pure technical specs of the cameras, the S21 actually seems a bit better when it comes to secondary cameras. So I guess I'll just wait what the S25U will bring to the table.
Well, if you can get the S24 Ultra for free then why not? Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
S21,22,23 & 24 all phones r always good, but whenever new mobile arrives/launch, after update all previous phones gets slow, I think they r doing purposely, so that their new launch mobile gets higher sale.
I wouldn't be surprised. Though phones get slower after a while because the accumulation of apps and data sometimes running in the background not necessarily because manufacturers slowing down on purporse. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Damn they're both really good
Front camera in s21 ultra looks like cod in ps3 vs cod in ps5 for the s24 ultra, it really puts some blur around the eyes vs the sharpness in the detail of the 24
i have the s21 Ultra since 4 years and im so happy with , best smartphone price /performance ratio ever ! :D
Thanks and amazing, I like this video
You're welcome!! Thank you for watching the video. Stay safe.
Samsung is trying to fix the over sharpening, but S24 Ultra shots look a bit too soft. S21 Ultra, S22 Ultra and S23 Ultra surely are still very nice phones and since the software update support of S24 Ultra is for 7 years, you can grab one 2 or 3 years later. No rush for getting the latest phone since it doesn't necessarily seem the greatest.
Yes, I wouldn't rush to get it right now unless your phone is completely toast and you get a very good deal. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Gracias por el video !!❤
De nada. Gracias a ti por mirarlo. Saludos.
I have moved from S21U to S24U (mostly because my S21U battery couldn't work for day, S24U now still 30-50% left at the evening with the same use scenarious). You may see not much changes in daylight photos without cropping in images but when light is not enough S21 is much noisier, also night time photos on S21U sometimes may take 3-4 sec while S24U takes 1 sec and with less noise at result. Also 10x optical zoom on 21 is much darker and then 5x/10x on 24. Stabilisation on 10x zoom is also much better on 24. Very good comparison but I think it would be great to include crop images to see the differences/noise level of images.
Thanks mate!! I don't do cropping because it's not how the vast majority of people see pics. That would also involve a little bit of explanation, therefore making the video longer and showing less pics in different scenarios which I prefer.
The S24 Ultra needs a big update. 4K 60fps at night is pretty bad and it needs a lot of artificial light to perform decently. The 5X/10X zoom without night mode is incredibly dark, the darkest I've seen in a Samsung phone. It tends to overexpose pics and wash out videos. The S21 Ultra is 3 years older and it does produce better shots especially on flowers to my surprise. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
21U is $350 24U is $1500
That’s right!! Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
i got a pretty new s21 ultra in 2024 for 340 euro good for de price now but de s24 is amazing
That's a good deal. The S21 Ultra is still a great phone. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Times when people had to upgrade phones every year are long gone
To my view i feel the samsung s24ultra holds more true to life photos/videos😉☺️
Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
s24u is much better on skin stone and video stability. In picture s21u can almost beat s24u. S21u is good with dynamic range.
Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Thanks for making the comparison. I have used the S21 ultra for 2.5 years. Before watching your video, i almost made the decision to buy the new S24 ultra, but now I am in doubt. It seems that photo quality of S21 ultra is better than that of S24 ultra, this makes me really want to stay with S21 ultra. However, I have another concern that is the battery life. After being used for almost 3 years, my S21 ultra is unable to last for the whole day, so I am still considering whether to go for a new S24 ultra or not.
You're welcome mate. It's all down to your onw personal needs. The S24 Ultra's battery life is super good but I wouldn't personally get it because of that or the cameras. If money is not an issue or you get a good plan through your carrier why not? Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Impressed how the S21U seems better in some shots
Yep, I'm surprised too. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Sir s21 ultra exnose / snapdragon version
Exynos mate. It's written at the beginning of the video with phones specs. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
s23 fe and i phone 13 camera which one is better,Which phone should to buy?Please answer to me because I have a hard time choosing..
I would go for the S23 FE. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
I may be the only one, but I don't see any notable advancements that deserve to put $1300 into this S24 Ultra instead of $350 for an S21 Ultra (Snapdragon preferred, the Snapdragon model is really better than the Exynos model in video, especially at night) 🤷🏽♂️
Except maybe the default color science which has improved a bit, but is easily correctable on the S21 Ultra.
I much prefer the contrast management and exposure of the S21 Ultra, and I'll say it again, the S21 Ultra is the Ultra that handles exposure and neon lights best especially at night.
The S24 Ultra with its 7 years of Android update will become a bargain in 2-3 years when it costs $400, and Samsung will have corrected many of its teething problems in the meantime.
Ps: I think that on 95% of night photos in 10X zoom, the S21 Ultra used the main sensor and not the dedicated sensor.
🙏🏽
Yes, the S21 Ultra is still very solid and competent especially at its current price. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Nice vid, bro. S21U still strong face the newest brother.
Yes, the S21 Ultra is still holding strong. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Impossible.
S21 still competes. And evvvvvven beats s24 in many photos.
Yep, believe it or not. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
I need pixel 6a. Can you send me this ?
This video is amazing, compliments, I realised that there is not too much difference between the 2 series, even of course here in Italy we have exynos and in other countries Snap. I bought S23 ultra because I am tired of exynos and it is a bit faster.
Thanks mate!! And thanks for watching the video. Stay safe!!
It's all a scam. The S24 looks the same as the S21 when it came out..They just lower The Quality of the old phones and give you the same "new" quality every year. Go back and look at the S21 quality when it first launched. Same as the S24
I'm not sure about that. I don't think the S21 Ultra has been downgraded over the years, possibly the opposite. The issue is the S24 Ultra not performing as expected. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Bless u and your family, sir.
Thanks mate!! Best wishes to you and your family too. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Surprise to see how good s21ultra exynos perform compare to s24ultra sdg3..for sure sd888 on s21u will perform better since i using two of this s21ultra..sd888 really perform better especially on 10x zoom
Yep, I wish I had the Snapdragon version to do that comparison. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
I wish you have the s21 ultra snapdragon that one better from exynos the one you use
Yeah, me too. As well as the Snapdragon version of the S22 Ultra. Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Soto-tek thank you for this🙌👌👏👏👏👏
You're welcome mate!! Thank you for watching the video. Stay safe.
Exynos s21ultra did well or could it be the new camera software updates, I guess the snapdragon variant should be excellent! S21ultra still a flagship in 2024. Thank you Soto-tek for the good work as always.
Much appreciation from Kenya🇰🇪
Great test one of the best
Thanks mate and thanks for watching the video.
I already own a S21 ultra and didn't update to a S24 ultra bcz the camera update wasn't that great will buy a S25 Ultra when it come but Samsung should update the main camera and Ultrawide camera sensor each year on its flagship
Thanks for watching the video. Stay safe.
Until they go to 1 inch sensors its mostly software improvements that are bringing the better quality.
Please next put the S24 ultra against the Note20 ultra 🙏🏽
Working on it now and coming after the one vs the Pixel 8 Pro next week. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
IMO the s24 was equal or better in every test. Low light of course it blew the s21 away. There wont be a big leap until samsung goes with a 1 inch sensor. A lot of improvements right now have come from software and more powerful processors to be able to do more processing in less time.
Well, the S24 Ultra has one of the most, if not the most, powerful processor right now and it's not really performing as it's supposed to across the board. To my eyes, it doesn't really blow the S21 Ultra away in low light but it's all a matter of personal preference. Thanks for watching the video and stay safe.
Low light was objectively a massive difference. The s21 would sometimes be brighter but that does not equal quality. Tons of noise. The ultrawide definitely needs an upgrade to improve low light, though. Yeah, it should get even better with updates and leverage more of that powerful chip for the processing photos and videos. @@Soto-Tech2020
thank you so much now i will buy 21u
Came here to upgrade s21u to s24u
Keeping s21u for sure now 👌
