Samsung s10e to Samsung s21 5g

4 years ago
I had very high expectations for this phone due to the price. I have had it almost a month and surprisingly no issues! I do like my phone a bit more slime for texting and this one is a bit bigger then I would like but it has all the functions and more that I could ask for. Picture quality is great. The speaker is great. 5g is active. I switched from the Samsung s10e. Very easy to use and the best part was being able to transfer all my stuff from my old phone to my new one in my own home, step by step, not complicated at all. I would recommend this phone to family and friends. I'm very happy with it.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Samsung continues in Excellence.

4 years ago
Beginning with the ease to connect to other smart devices and then the quality and power of the device itself easily sets the Samsung S21 5G far above other phones on the market. And I have yet to even mention some of its mind blowing features. The forward facing camera with HDR10 clarity is truly amazing to see; and I abuse my phone at times with so many applications open at once while connected to either my vehicle or home computer...not once has it began to get close to being slow. I could speak forever about this device, but just like skydiving....you have NO IDEA how exhilarating it is until you experience it yourself. It's made of dreams.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Good overall

4 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was convinced to pre-order the phone by a snazzy tmobile salesperson. It has been good overall. Sometimes I have to restart it multiple times to be able to text but that could be a network issue rather than a phone problem. I don't like that someone can use the camera feature without unlocking the phone and I've yet to figure out how to turn it off. There is a delay of about 3-5 seconds when taking pictures sometimes and there's no way to turn that off either. Fingerprint unlocking does not work well either; sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't (I've got 3 fingers to choose from for that). It does what I need it to do for the most part.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Good, but not great.

4 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a few weeks into my ownership of the S21, which has been solid and responsive, when I can access it. With COVID and mask wearing becoming commonplace, facial recognition as a means of authentication has become difficult. The fingerprint reader does not work well in low light, and will not work unless you align your finger exactly the right way without any physical indicators to guide the alignment. Say what you will about rear fingerprint readers, they were a much more reliable means of authentication. If Samsung could add a rear fingerprint reader and ditch the behind the screen reader they would have a much more reliable product.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Disappointed

3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a samsung advocate meaning I had to help push samsung products which was easy to do considering they've always had the best tech and features. I got out of the cell phone industry but still love technology so naturally I upgraded to the s21 from my s10 plus without doing any real research because normally samsung would actually make improvements on the newest devices. To my DISAPPOINTMENT it was a upgraded downgrade from my previous device still a great device just a step back while being the same price or more from previous device that were better. I'll only recommend this device if they are coming from older device or an iPhone

Yes, I recommend this product.

Nice Size Phone

4 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far this have been a nice phone compared to my last phone which was the Galaxy S7. I held out as long as I could before investing in a new phone and decided the S21 was the one. I like the size, the features are familiar to me as I have used Samsung phones before and the camera seems nice. I am not camera savvy so I don't know what are the functions and buttons are for but I think it takes good pictures. The battery seems to last longer than my last phone and the phone seems to charge in a decent amount of time. I like using the USB-C type cord now as it seems to have a stronger connection versus the the standard USB-micro cord.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Amazing phone

4 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this phone for a couple of months now and it's just amazing. The 120hz adaptive refresh rate just makes everything feel really smooth. The camera is the best I've seen being able to take videos at 120hz. Another thing I love about this device is its Battery and device care feature, that tells you if there's anything running in the background that is eating up your battery life and phone speed and fixes it for you to make sure your phone is performing as good as possible. I have no problems watching movies on this phone as the colors and brightness of the display is perfect. I get around 7 hours of battery life on 120hz and 9 hours on 60hz.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Great phone

This phone is amazing! I'm loving the fast, responsive screen, super high quality pics and videos, and better data service on 5G. I've not experienced any of the issues other reviewers have described, so those may have since been addressed with software updates.

Yes, I recommend this product.
