The smartphone comes with a 6.2-inch AMOLED display. There are four Samsung S21 colors including Phantom White, Phantom Gray, Phantom Pink, and Phantom Violet. In terms of design, it looks like things haven’t remained practically the same as the S20, except for the S21 having a matte finish instead of a shiny one like on the S20.

However, if you look closer, you will notice some changes. Rather than having a curved screen, the new flagship of Samsung gets a flat one. There is only one option of the Full HD+ resolution.

The S21 lineup has a larger in-screen fingerprint sensor area. It is supposedly faster as well. What you miss is the glass back on the S21 Plus and S21 Ultra. The curved display edges with Quad HD resolution and S Pen are S21 Ultra exclusive.

The Single Take camera mode has been enhanced, allowing users to capture photos and videos simultaneously. It can even do slow-motion videos. With the new Director’s View, vloggers can vlog using the front as well as the rear cameras at the same time. All of the cameras on the phone can record 4K videos at 60fps. The main rear camera can even record 8K videos at 24fps.

Samsung S21 Specs

The Samsung Galaxy S21 is the first device to have the latest generation of chipsets: Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888 in the US or Samsung’s Exynos 2100. We will have to test the phone to see if the new phones in the S21 lineup of Samsung can close the gap with the A series of chipsets from Apple.

The S21 is available in two variants. Both versions have 8GB of RAM, which is enough for smartphone tasks. The smartphone also has Samsung Dex with which you can turn a monitor into a virtual desktop computer.

All the phones in the S21 lineup don’t have a microSD card slot, meaning if you plan to capture a lot of 108MP photos as well as 4K or 8K videos, it is better to go for the 256GB model.

The S21 has Android 11 with Samsung’s One UI 3.0 skin.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Battery

Compared to last year’s flagship smartphone, the battery is unchanged. The Galaxy S21 has a 4,000mAh battery. Last year, this capacity was enough to keep the smartphone running for a whole day. In terms of charging, there are two options available: Samsung’s 25W Fast Charging through USB-C, Fast Wireless Charing 2.0, and Wireless Power Share for Qi-charging other devices.
