Watching on my S10e, still toying with the idea of a new phone 📱 at some point
Went from s10e, to iphone 12 mini, to s21fe. Miss the s10e for sure...the size, aux, side fingerprint, they need to come back with something similar.
@w5 My Husband bought me a S20 5G, so I've been using that. It's very good so far. I love the fact I can watch videos on a bigger Screen, the Camera, it's snappier and I can actually have Android 13 😊
Literally same🤣 have you switched yet
@Gido Thom Husband got me the S20 5G, and quite Happy 😊
@@allig8147 okay thats awesome
New or renewed?
Just picked up mine today brand new at a discount with the 888. Seen your video pop up and now I am glad I got it.
I've been using the S21 FE since May 2022. It's been a great day to day device. Nice screen, solid camera and a flagship SD 888 processor. I'll definitely keep it until Sammy releases a updated model. Great follow up video.
have to agree with you had mine 8 months now it's been solid in every department
Lucky you..!!! I have got Exynos version due to Asian market
@@milindchouhan5248 what about the battery life broh?and does it have a light mode? that can save power while using 120hz
@@DisrespectTheRespect it does have Battery saver mode but you won't be able to use the high refresh rate. It typically gives me 5 hours of SOT and sometimes more depends on some circumstances.
@@milindchouhan5248the exynos good with u i have here in my country also exynos and so afrid
I dont know if anyone else has had this problem but in this phone I dont see my Mobile data Icons at the top once u swipe down.
I have the Exynos S21 FE right now. Battery life could be better but it's still acceptable in longevity. The camera is nice, the build quality is pretty good and it's been performing well so far.
Do you have the exynos or snapdragon?
I have snapdragon and it's bullshit. Battery drains in 2.5 hours of screen on.
@aluminyumnegro4900Snapdragon version has better scores in benchmarks, and performs better in games as far as I know. In real-life usage though, I do not think it is as superior as many people say.
exynos has better video quality@aluminyumnegro4900
@aluminyumnegro4900gets updates before snapdragon model. If not a gamer it’s fine
Just got it it's certainly better than i expected
I bought mine in March,this phone has beautiful pictures,fast and its great. SD888 processor.Thanks for the review
Got the phone this Saturday for $550 in Pakistan. I'm just loving it. Coming from the Galaxy A32 4G, everything feels good and better.
How's the battery? ... I also use A32 4G looking to upgrade.
@@matomemalatsi3559 The battery is worse than the A32 4G but I can get 5 hours of Screen on Time (SoT) easily on 120 Hz. Highly recommend if it's in your budget.
@MusaKhan-hb7sg my sister is also upgrading from a32 4g to s21 fe. Any tips? We are buying the 8/256 for 128k pkr (pta). This is roughly 400usd.
@abdullahafzalkhan8414 From where are you getting 8/256 for 128k. I saw it on price oye.pk for 155k.
wow didn't know there's a navy color. Its not even in the Samsung web page. I have the white and love it but blue is awesome too
Excellent review.
Awesome phone📱and great review🙌 and cutie cat🐈😃
Thank you 😁❤️
can you see the screen in bright day light ?
2:32 thx for sharing. I've got a dwarf rabbit and a husky. Both are picky with wanting absolutely fresh water. 😅
3:35 yesssss plz. Id try out the gives refresh rate and end up changing it anyways
Great content on S21 FE 👍
Nice thumbnail, creative ASH
Thanks bro💪🏾
Can anyone get me where i get the snapdragon variant of the phone for lower cost ?
that funny when the cat pushed the phone away looking so confused😂
My wife and I both got the Qualcomm 888 version of the Galaxy S21fe. The 256GB model that has 8GB of RAM instead of the 128GB model with 6GB of RAM. We gave $550 each for them back in October 2022. So far they have been excellent. A huge upgrade from the Galaxy S8 Active we were using before.
Samsung's OneUI 5 Android 13 update improved both battery life and performance for us once we were able to disable the RAM Plus feature that couldn't be turned off in One UI 4 Android 12.
We finally got cases and screen savers for them last week. So glad we didn't have any bad accidents while using bare phones. However we both have dropped them while bare without the phones taking any damage. Not as tough as our old S8 Active phones, but twice as tough as the glass backed phones currently available.
Does switching off RAM plus help battery life?
Thats a good way to do it. Yeah if you want the same type of protection your s8 active had buy a otterbox case.
@Антон Шулаков I'll also like to know any battery saving tips because to me the battery runs down really fast
@Nirvan Roopchan it's the main issue I have with my 21fe mine as the snapdragon 888 done every thing I can think of deep sleep apps dark mode it ain't got good battery life
@Lee Wainwright same here i mean performance is on point but battery sucks badly have to charge 2 times or so a day
Nicely done.. 😊
I have the s21fe and after 11 months, I noticed it getting slower and had some bugs in some apps.
sot???
how many do you get?
Do you have a review on the samsung galaxy a54
What about the gaping heating problem bro. Lbr
i think when i take pictures with this phone in the day time they come out looking great its at night when there is no light that the quality comes out really bad, also I'm not sure if its just me but the quality camera on the apps like IG and snap are horrible! when i try to take videos to post on the apps they come out blurry and the quality again, is not good. anyways lol thats my urk that the camera looks bad on the apps especially at concerts since its dark in the venues with just stage lights
Should've given SD888 in the Asian Market.... would have definitely done a lot better in terms of sale and longevity
My s9 is finally giving up. Having a mobile internet connection problem. Uses wifi just fine. I use my mobile hot spot almost everyday to my ps. I live in a rural area with no real internet options. How is the fe for hit spotting
Yeeeep, i just came from the s9 as well, just loading pages was becoming a chore. I went with the s21 fe for the updates but i have no complaints the speakers great screen beautiful, battery better than my s9
Just picked one up at £324, unused but open box, instead at a A54
Pretty pleased😊
How is the bettery life been , is th screen on time good ??? I want to but it but i am scared cuz of the battery life
@@kenanshora Not as good as my IPhone 13 but all day is not a problem 👍🏽
@@Dondaddyh can you specify how many hours of sot
@@kenanshora7
S21fe or shawmi 12t they had the same price in my country
Got this phone for 17/month for 24 months + plan. I got 350 best buy gift card, 200 hardware credit, and 200 phone account credit.
What chipset variant do you have man?
I'm thinking of getting either the 21 fe or a73. But see people talking about the battery life. But the battery will probably be better than my 4 year old p20 lite 😂
Dude I’m in the exact same scenario which are you going with?
Get the S21 FE
yes bro me too on same boat...i feel A73 is the safe option...buy - use - enjoy thats wat a new phone shud offer...but s21fe is bit different
Same thing here every thing is better in the s21fe , but the battery life is skeptical
No dubt go for s21fe
Watching on my s21 fe after upgrading from s10 lite
I bought this phone for 485 dollars which is pretty good. Coming from an s20 nearly everything is an upgrade for me. The battery, performance and even cameras. The chin could be a bit thinner but its way better than the curved display which i found very annoying. Surprisingly i prefer the plastic back. The feel of the s20 was very slippery and clunky in a way but this phone is very good to grip. Overall i think this is a great phone for 500 bucks, especially with the 4 years of software updates.
Your cat!! 😍
Bought the s21 fe last week love it good price i paid new one nice
Just bought one off of ebay today 5/7/2024 $135 bucks in total. Thanks for the review Naseem!
Hi
How much?
New or used?
I'm worried
@@jacobafegbai3236 135 Dollars USD. Used in great conditiom
Only if Samsung S21 fe came up with better telephoto lens ie either 10mp 3x optical zoom or bigger sensor than current 1/4.5 ....there would be no match for Samsung S21 fe...it can compete iPhone 14 at daylight anytime
In terms of games and money
Should i buy s22 and spend all my money or buy s21 fe and save money?
I will never buy another Samsung phone I been wanting a year and a half for the to fix the issue with 5 g they blame it on the carrier the carrier is blaming it on Samsung you would think they would fix this issue by now but I am being told it's on every Samsung device that it's out there
samsung a54??
Heating issues???
Awww 😊❤ 🎉
should I get an s21 fe or s21 both cost the same rn but the s21 is refurbished.
fe
My problem is the battery i dont know how mine barely get through half of the day 💀
what about in power saving mode?does it runs 120hz in that
what about compared to A54 5g?
It's better than A54,I have A54 and It's not that great
@@user-br3dt7ml8t It has some heating and CPU issues,that's why I returned the phone after 1 week of use
@@petcu_455magreed sir; my sister made the same mistake, and is returning the a54 for the iphone 12 sadly. samsung should really think back to 2021 when their mid range phones were actually good. or bring back the fan edition phones (i’m praying this year they will so i can upgrade from my a51)
I have a Huawei p20 for last 5 years, seriously, I don't know which phone choose, the market have become so boring, so which phone should I choose
Which one did you choose
how much money do you have to burn threw?
Why im getting it over s21 battery sucks on s21
So should I switch to Samsung s21 fe from my Sony Xperia 5 ii?
Samsung gives better software experience and a good camera..and software support..so yeah
@@DisrespectTheRespect yeah I'm thinking of getting the galaxy s21 . Because I don't get 5G on the phone unless I'm in Japan or UK or course 😒 at least Samsung s21 has 5G in the U.S
@@omegadrake6119 the only problem is the battery life. because the 120z isn't adaptive.but that's not bad. better than s20 series...but i recommend you to buy used s21 plus
@@DisrespectTheRespect I don't like big phones
@@omegadrake6119 then if you can afford 899$ you can buy s23, it's small but good battery, better than s21 plus or s22 plus.
I love this phone
thinking between pixel 7 and fe 21, what should i choose
Depends on what matters most to you. If u want a phone with great camera, very simple & fluid software and don't care about taking photos from far then go with Pixel 7. If u want all the smartphone bells and whistles then get the Samsung
Just purchased this.. upgrading from an S10+
how is it ?does it have battery issue?
How fast does the under display fingerprint scanner work? Please answer I really wanna know about our.!
*I really wanna know about it!!
Good
I agree with everything you said
✊🏾♥️
You have S20 fe?
I don’t but I want to get it one day😁
I have the exynos 2100 version here in india
Bro how is gaming?
Battery?
Heating?
Pls answer
Its an awesome phone tbh but the battery really runs down fast like really fast
Maybe because you are using the 120hz all day plus its the exynos variant?
@mylifeisawesome nope its the snapdragon 888 and 60hz plus battery saver is on
That's what I tell people before buying this phone. It has a HUGE HEATING AND BATTERY DRAINING problem!!!
5g drains battery way faster than 4g connection
How is the battery backup now after few updates?
This phone is very unreliable. I bought mine in February last year and a year didn’t even go by before it started overheating. In December last year it overheated and didn’t turn on until today. Sent it back to @Samsung for repairs and they told me that the warranty won’t cover it. The phone itself and Samsung’s after care service is very poor. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyway. Try another brand.
NB: I wrote this comment from my IPhone 11 which I’ve had for over 4 years and is still working fine.
Exynos or sd888?
I want the S23, but I might just get the S21 FE and save 500 bucks……
Might as well...
Wait till august see if the s23fe comes out. If it does you can get the s21fe at a greater discount.
@@Swagalious689 Idk, I’ve been waiting for awhile. I don’t see Samsung coming out with another FE phone.
And did you get it? How is the battery
@@a.m8667 I didn’t, I decided not to get it, and will probably just get the s23 while it’s on sale.
00:24 i thought i traveled back in time
9:37 burst shot exists
just bought this phone to my GF... I think shell be happy :)
@@user-br3dt7ml8t it is really amazing phone... also managed to find it quite cheap ... i would recommend it
S21 fe should of been the s21 then it would of been perfect
watching with galaxy s21 fe 😊
How's the battery life, after the latest update?? Please let me know
yeah i wanna know that as well. because i heard 5.1 updates was good
@@pranavsaurabh3989wack
@@pranavsaurabh3989good
Subscribe because I have a S 21 fe and it's Awesome 😊
S20FE Is better for me
Exynos or Snapdragon version?
I hope he has the snapdragon version. I despise the Exynos processor the S21 FE is known to have..
The 888 is arguably a better chip than the 8 Gen 1
how?
Is it Naseem approved? YES 👍
Is it cat boss approved? NOPE 👎 @7:55 😂
Cat smacked it away so I'm no longer a fan of this phone
😂😂😂
1 thing i want to say, we came here to see the product not your face, and you put a tumbnail of the phone but on the video is mostly your face.
S21 fe gayet güzel cihaz. S serisi sevenler rahatlıkla kullanacaklardir. Performanslı güzel bir cihaz.
merhaba, hala memnun musunuz? sevmediğiniz yönlerden bahsetme şansınız var mı? teşekkürler..
@@jbledavlverge valla ben telefonu youtube, instagram online hesapları kullanmak ve okey oynamak icin kullaniyorum. 😅 ama bana göre video izlerken sesi olsun. Ekranının akıcıliğı ve kaliteli olmasi cok hosuma gidoyor. Cok net bir ekranı var. Ayrıca ekranı ikiye bolerek istedigim iki uygulama ya da oyunu acip ikisini aynı anda yapma özgürlüğüm var. Apk uygulamasi kullaniyorum. O yöndende cok pratik geliyor. Bundan önce iphone 12 mini vardi. 2 ay anca sabredebildim. Degistirdim. Kışiden kisiye degisir. Ama benim icin samsung daha kullanisli ve daha rahat. Kamerayı cok kullanmiyorum. Ama kesinlikle seni mutlu edecektir. Cok prof degilsen her türlü isini görur. Şarjı 1 günümü rahat çikartiyor benim. Yani benim istiyecegim herseyi bana fazlasiyla veriyor. Senin telefondan ne istedigine bagli. Mesela bana birsey söyle. Ona gore o iyi ya da kötü diyeyim.
S21 fe, S21 plus or S22 plus? But exeynos cause I’m in the UK 🥲
S22 plus but I prefer s23
@JBL King 2 s21 fe does not lag
@JBL King 2 I know that , here in India also I am using exynos in s21 fe and from my experience phone is buttery smooth
S21 FE or S22 Plus
