[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ever since I got the phone at the end of March, I have been super happy with it. The battery life is great, lasts all day with normal usage. I rarely have to charge it before the end of the day, unless I'm using it heavily. My old phone an S6 would die very quickly and I had to carry a battery pack. The old camera was also quite grainy, especially in low light. The new camera functions very well in low light with very little grain. There is also a lot of zoom options and it can take photos closer than my other one. I love how fast it is as well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been using my S21 Ultra since late February; ordered the Samsung Store exclusive Phantom Brown and it was really worth the wait. The Brown semigloss finish along with the carbonfiber-like bezel around the camera group looks so good, it's a shame to put a case on it.
Coming form a Note10+ the oversized form factor was not an issue for me. Weight and feel are on point. I really love the fact that you can use a stand alone S-Pen, which works just the same as in my old Note10+.
I use my phone as a mobile office, so I'm constantly using data and making calls, and not once have I needed to plug in the charger before 10pm. No matter what I throw at it, it will keep going after hours with some 12-15%.
If you need device capable of becoming a mobile office, the S21 Ultra is the way to go. If stylus compatibility it's a must, the S21 Ultra.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a great device with many enhanced features and capabilities. With the 12 Gb Ram I can multi-task, but the device often gets warm or overheated. Still a great choice.
I bought this 3 months ago, thinking it would be an amazing upgrade from a Pixel XL phone. But through the numerous iterations since my last Galaxy (an S4), Samsung has added a lot of problems with their proprietary software. I can't rely on basic features such as call screening or visual voicemail, because the needless Samsung apps (Phone etc) do not work properly with Android or my carrier. A "flagship" smartphone where you cannot use basic features with expected consistency, is not a phone I can recommend. I should have waited for the new Pixel or went with a OnePlus
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this phone especially the camera! I've had this phone since 2-21 and it has not disappointed me. I really enjoy taking photos of the moon and I sure wish I would have had this phone when the comet was visible last year.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought four of these for our whole family, about 4 months ago. It was a great deal, and i don't regret it. The camera is awesome, and takes excellent pics. The features are quite impressive for just about any type user. The battery life is amazing and I can get a day and a half easily without recharging. The feature of being able to write on the phone like a Samsung Note is a great bonus that I have used many times. I would recommend this phone to anyone. Awesome!! Keep up the great work!!
