Samsung Galaxy S21
Key specs
Critic consensus
“The Samsung Galaxy S21 packs plenty of power into its small stature and sets the stage for better 5G phone performance in the future.”
“S21 proper, the S-series Galaxy for compact phone lovers is predictably a very nice package. It's got a display that's hard not to love, battery life that won't keep you tied to an outlet, and cameras that capture great images, all of it packaged in what's Samsung's most daring design lately. Seemingly, however, that's no longer enough.”
“Overall, the changes compared with the Galaxy S20 are quite minor. Users who already own the predecessor don't necessarily have to upgrade to the Galaxy S21. Newcomers can definitely buy it, though, and they'll get a strong high-end smartphone for relatively little money.”
“We're early in the 2021 flagship season, and Samsung always lands first, giving it a strong advantage compared to last year's phones. Right now, I think the S21 is the smaller Android phone to get. It's not without its gotchas, but it strikes a very good balance for the price.”
