Samsung Galaxy S21 VS LG Velvet! Should You Spend Less Or More? (Comparison)

[@TheMallhi81]

Using lg from since 2011 and til this day can't find a single negative word to say about lg.

The negative is you can't get half of your money back once you done. The resell value is low.

[@teddyli8964]

Using LG velvet a very beautiful phone and have a very good experience so far

[@Tylorgng.]

How is it now?

[@lungiematlena9631]

As a person who was very confused at the start of this video, you sure were able to make me weigh my options very well. I'm choosing to get the Velvet... The difference for me on both these devices are really not far apart. Great video 👌🏼

Bad choice because the 120hz display on s21 is completely mind blowing

My last two phones were Lg, LG G6 and now LG VELVET 5G .Both phones are great . I am very happy with my LG VELVET it has everything i need compare with the S21 which doesn't have expandable storage and 3.5 jack. Its a bit same that LG shut down the mobile phones division. I recommend highly LG VELVET which is truly a flagship phone and now it can be found also in great price and upgrades for 3 years.

[@beyondbased]

The LG V60 form factor is a little wider and a little heavier but it's the better phone to buy if someone's trying to decide between LG phones. I have both and I'd recommend the V60 over the Velvet to just about anyone who can spare the extra $100 to get one. Faster processor, bigger battery, better cameras, more/better microphones, and my favorite...the QUAD DAC headphone jack. The Velvet has a headphone jack, but it doesn't have the QUAD DAC that's usually paired with LG phones. Another weird thing about the Velvet is they have different variants and depending on the carrier, the camera placement will be physically different so there's no universal case design possible. You have to be careful with what you're ordering to ensure you get a case or accessory that will fit properly...which is pretty lame...they should've stuck to a single design for all their Velvet variants so sorting through accessories wouldn't be so frustrating.

[@deleqtronica8733]

@@beyondbasedthe Velvet in 2023 is half the price of the V60. I wanted the V60 over the Velvet but I couldn’t justify paying paying double. My only complaint is the camera isn’t that great. The form factor really grew on me, the long screen is easy to hold.

[@hoppysport2872]

Terrific video! If people are considering the S21, the best cross purchase is the LG G8...maybe the perfect phone. If you can live without 5G and the 888 processor, the blows the S21 out of the water. Real 3D face unlock, a 3.5mm headphone jack, the 32-bit Hi-Fi QuadDAC, 6.1-inch OLED; 3,120x1,440, 564 ppi screen, and the still-powerhouse Snapdragon 855. All this for $309 or so, brand-new...with LG's 2-year Second Year Promise warranty. Thats a savings of $500.

I dont know why there is so much hate toward the lg lol i had the v60 , the velvet and loved them as much as my note 20 ultra and z3 fold i actualy broke my fold and now im back on the velvette and my life is still going good lmao

[@pabloiaconoguitar311]

Looking in my LG Velvet but the version that take the Snapdragon 845 and i can say its a really fast phone and works perfectly i buyed the phone in october 2021 and works better and better and. I came from Samsung s7 s6 plus , Note 8 and in the past i had an LG g3 and was a great phone too i m happy with this phone and for two years i dont think replace them

[@brett2396]

The S20FE is probably the best value phone right now, you can find it under $500 on swappa. The Velvet is great value but it's just too big and doesn't have a high refresh rate display plus updates aren't fast at all.

Hey bud. I wanted to see if you can see if you’re having the same issues and maybe cover it in a vid. Many new s21 phones seem to overheat when using anything where media is involved such as viewing yt, recording vids, creating bitmojis, etc. Thanks.

[@andrescarrera6955]

Thank you for the video. One question, are you getting updates on your att unlocked phones?

[@brodeeraney7704]

I feel when theres a speed test and its a few seconds diff its not that big of a deal. The average user wont even notice 1-3 second difference

I have the velvet and it looks good on paper but the os is complete ass. Swapping between apps, transitioning from one app to another, gestures, connecting bluetooth devices and opening apps. Expect all these to fail on you multiple times a day, needing to turn on off bluetooth, opening closing apps ect.... Im taking it back for sure.

[@ryanrichards6960]

I've had my velvet for close to 2 years now and I have none of these issues. This phone has been the best phone I've had in at 6 years and I'm really struggling to find anything outside of the s21 and s22 ultras that are worth the money as a replacement. Everything else just seems adequate and not an improvement.

Guys stay away from LG phones I have tried 3 times and all 3 times I ran into problems. Recently with LG v60. I keep have to restart the phone because calls come in but it auto ends the call. Very buggy.

[@gleenxtoby]

Hey i know this is very late but i bought the velvet and i also came across with the same problem. I figured it out though. It's the VOLTE. I had to turn it off and its okay now. What happens is the phone prioritizes VOLTE when making and receiving calls. But if you are in an area where LTE connection is weak, it cant make and receive that call. So just turn it off and it should work fine.
