Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra Review 2023

[@ashdoestech]

Keep an eye out for my S21 Ultra 2024 video coming this week! Always great to revisit, so check it out!

[@BeardPunk]

Picked up an S21U recently and have to say it's fantastic. Paid about 300 for the 256GB model and it's in perfect condition. Camera is still amazing and it also has S Pen support. Don't think you'd get more for your money elsewhere.

[@ashdoestech]

I agree, stunning value for money!

[@786uchihamadara]

is it Exynos or Snapdragon? How long does the battery last after full charge

[@nlop1929]

where did you get it from?

[@BeardPunk]

@robertmangano353 Back Market

[@Miki-So]

From where did you get the phone? is it Used or refurbished?

[@octaviorosousa9001]

Still an amazing phone, I love mine absolutely worth it in 2023.

[@kevinphoenix2007]

I've gone through many phones in the last 5 years. This one is the phone I truly intend to hold onto because it just feels right to me...that and I got it new for a little over $500, less than half what it was at full retail. Considering I'm guaranteed another two years up Android upgrades, this felt like a great deal to me. I rarely, if ever use the S-Pen, so I don't miss having one embedded within the phone. Bottom line is the average person is likely not going to notice any difference in performance between the S21 Ultra and the current phones of this year.

[@JoeJoseph-pi4xd]

How is the battery

[@Sickened-Youtube]

​@@JoeJoseph-pi4xd about 6 hours screen on time, not bad just average

[@JoeJoseph-pi4xd]

@@Sickened-KZbin still 6 hours 3 years later? That's pretty good

[@jamesgana3837]

Yes it's still Ultra enough. Amazing specs,awesome design and good camera. Value for money with 4 years OS updates and 5 years security updates.

[@ashdoestech]

Still a great phone!

[@garywood683]

Watching this now 1st July 2024 because just picked up a new boxed S21U with s pen, 3 new Samsung cases and 2 x screen protectors for £195..absolutely over the moon.

[@kyles5513]

Just ordered one from best buy in excellent condition for 400. can't wait for it to arrive.

[@markmerryweather9908]

I bougjt the S21 ultra yesterday. It cost me £240 after I traded in my iphone 11 - which I recieved £165 for. So far, im very impressed by it.

[@llorenzo6146]

Do you love android or ios more

[@cydneistar]

I was trying to chose between the S23U and the S21U and I just ordered the S21U in enough time for Christmas - thank you for this review

[@ashdoestech]

You won’t be disappointed 💪

[@neoscav]

Nice video, just ordered the S21U last week and can't wait for it to arrive!

[@ashdoestech]

Nice! You’re gonna love it! Thanks for watching 😁

[@williamisaacson4348]

Just bought one today! Hoping it's delivered before Christmas. Your review was very helpful in my decision! Good job on your reviews, Ash! I subscribed. Keep em coming!

[@SurroundedByNonsense]

I got this phone due to the camera and music side of things for when I hit the gym again its a great phone you get quite alot of specifications for the money for sure

[@jordanyoung8184]

It’s not worth upgrading annually anymore, hasn’t been for a while imo

[@ashdoestech]

I agree, I've got a video coming up on the S22 Ultra! Not much difference ha!

[@bradleyswaney6100]

Just got one from Amazon. Love it!!! Coming from a s20 fe.

[@ashdoestech]

Nice, it’s still an awesome phone!

[@lemon9312]

What refurbished seller did u buy from. How is the performance so far. In terms if battery and all that? Thanks

[@punisherpg]

well in my opinion S21U still the best in 2024-2026 doing pretty good !

[@DimiProject2]

Thank you for your video... Recently I manage to buy the SD 888 version. I was looking for the 888 version long time but.... I say the exynos 2100 version is better... Exynos 2100 managing better in battery consumption and thermals compared to SD 888 version... I think exynos 2100, exynos 2200 and exynos 2400 are good flagship processors.. But SD 888 and SD 8 Gen 1 not.

[@ThomasDeen-s9d]

I'm hoping to pick the S21 ultra soon. I'm hoping it reaches my expectations and more.

[@innocentanthony3324]

What phone would you advise me to get this yr to next yr In terms of camera and other thngs Mate 40 Pro or p40 pro sir If you can make a review I'll really appreciate

[@essencemediaproductions2174]

Would you recommend this S21 ultra to do media work?

[@HaiderAdeniji-Adele]

1 am inlove with the s21 ultra I especially love the S pen

Yeah mid range is irrelevant if you wanna save money this is the best strat for buying phones just buy a really good 1-3 yr old flagship

[@phildunk7381]

Paid £300 for mine, 18 months old. Fantastic phone and android 14 is on its way soon.

[@ashdoestech]

Nice! Glad you like it!

[@pinky1933]

My s21fe5g became defective and I was forced to make a claim and use my insurance. They didn't have anymore s21fe's, so their solution was ship me a s21 ultra phantom black. I said that's the best thing to have happened during a claim lol. Used it and loved it but the battery wasn't up to expectation. Loved the feel, speed and cameras. If I didn't watch KZbin like I do perhaps. Now using the s24 ultra but even that gets down to 5% by the end of my day.

[@JanuszJanusz-l5s]

I ordered it yesterday. I hope it will serve me for several years.

Ebay, got it when they were running like 15-20% discounts so managed to snag it at a great price. There's always deals, just have to keep looking 😁

[@LexLoofah]

@@ashdoestech ye nice 1. Is it worth getting a foreign one with snapdragon 888 over the Exynos?

[@ashdoestech]

Snapdragon versions were reviewed with better battery and overall performance, but once the phone learned my usage patterns battery was great, and performance was flawless with the exynos

[@LexLoofah]

@@ashdoestech ok that's good to hear. Thanks for taking time to reply mate 👍

Just picked one up for £227 with a load of coupons off eBay. Will be taking it away and comparing photos to my Pixel 6 Pro in 2024 video from NYC 🇺🇸

Just snagged a S21U with 512gb and 16gb of ram for 270£ on ebay and completely stoked to get it!

[@andrepamendes]

I still love this smartphone. Bought it when it launched for 700 euros (discount through the company I worked on at the time) and it's great in every aspect. After 2.5 years of heavy usage my battery health is still at 94% (I use AccuBattery App) because I'm using the never charge over 85% of the full capacity feature in Samsung One UI settings and it's the best feature for maintaining battery health. On every other smartphone I owned I had to replace my batter after 2 or 3 years since the capacity when from 100% to 75% or less.

[@llorenzo6146]

How to check the battery health

S21 for 3 years now still killer . Except my screen crack .. i could do without that lol

[@ashdoestech]

😂😂 I can empathise with that

Where would you reccomend to buy a cheap s21 ultra from?

[@amirhadziabdic4796]

amazon

[@rushpatriot2866]

Amazon is trash go to backmarket I've bought 8 phones from them and I've always been satisfied

[@vevisa3287]

this is my favourite Ultra phone from Samsung so far. Not a fan of the S22 & S23 Ultra's. I think the standard/plus S22's & S23's get lower tier specs because Samsung wants to make the Ultra's look better. That's cool but they just reduce the specs a bit too much imo. The S21 Ultra and S20 FE are currently my favorite from Samsung

[@ashdoestech]

I did a video on the S20 FE, great phone!

[@kevangildharry3884]

In Trinidad&Tobago that phone is selling at the same price when it first came out want to buy one but too expensive.

[@Motivation407]

Same in guyana

[@greenfalcon1568]

you can buy it preowned for a lot less in trinidad
