    I think it's a really good phone. Everybody talks about the back being plastic but I really like that it's plastic. It makes the phone a lot lighter and if you were to drop it it won't shatter the back. I don't get the preoccupation with putting glass on the back of the phone. I remember I used have a Nokia 920 that was red made out of the same plastic and it was great. Anyway, that's a good phone. Well worth the money and you can always get it on sale. It's a no-brainer.

    I purchased the S21 FE unlocked from Samsung store with 256 GB storage & 8 GB memory a year ago. FE stands for fan edition. I am definitely a fan. One the greatest feature of the phone is that it is light weight. I put skins on my phones to keep them thin and handy. It has a slot for a second sim card. I just put a second line (for my business) on this phone and it is working great.

    It was either this or the a53 for upgrading and while I miss the A series a little, it made sense going for the 21fe... ok, the battery life isn't perfect but I would think it's because the more powerful processor than my a52... still waiting for the 13 upgrade and sitting on the November security patch.

    Honestly, I had no regrets buying Samsung Galaxy S21 FE in 2023. Because the specification is quite similar to the regular Samsung Galaxy S21, but the Fan Edition comes with a bigger Battery (4500mah), bigger Screen (6.4") and same ChipSet as the S21 (Exynos 2100 - Asia Region). Camera wise, I'm not too concerned about it because when I took a picture using my S21 FE, the result still looks perfect 👍🏻. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase 😄. Ohh, not to forget, 4 years of OS Updates and 5 years of Security Updates hehe 😊

    Swore I would never buy a Samsung phone after trying friends' phones a few years back. I liked the hardware but absolutely hated the Touch Wiz software. Long story short, I decided to give them another try and bought the S21 FE a few weeks ago. I couldn't be happier with it. One UI is a huge improvement on Touch Wiz and provides a lot of really useful customization, without compromising the Android experience. Got it at a great price on an open box deal and absolutely love it.

    Bought this phone at around 650 euros 7 months ago. Vey happy with this phone. Quality build. I like the matte back and the metal sides. Camera is very good for an average user that doesn't use a phone solely for its camera. Meaning that the camera definitely is not the best but it gets the job done. Dark lighting photos are its weakness but if it's a bright atmosphere then the pictures will come out very good. The best part about the camera is the video camera. Very smooth 4k with 60 fps. Software had its flaws because of the updates. Sometimes after an OS update the phone would be flawless, but after the next one some problems would appear. Ghost touches after using the fingerprint scanner were annoying (you would always unlock a random app wherever your finger was on the screen when you were unlocking your phone) Heating issues while watching movies/streaming or playing games. Sometimes the phone would get really hot and suddenly your 120hz screen becomes a 60hz screen with stutters. After a major OS update everything was fixed. Fingerprint scanner is very fast but sometimes doesn't do as well. Might be because of liquids/debris on the screen or finger. Battery is okey. Usually can last a whole day but there are many variables to this. So far I love this phone. Flagship or at least up in there somewhere.

Go to Settings, then tap "Backup and Restore", then, under "Samsung Cloud", tap "Backup." You will then be able to easily back up all your A51's data. Make sure to do this right before switching, even if you've already done it in the past, or else the data may not be current. Then, you can open Smart Switch, an app that is already installed on your A51, and it will guide you through the steps to transfer your data either wirelessly or through the provided USB-C cable.

    It's worth buying because the price is so much lower than new flagships, but the fan edition should have expandable storage like the S20 FE. I decided to switch from the A52 to this simply because I got bored of the A52 and I wanted a better camera. That being said, I had to delete half of my videos due to the lack of storage. The least they could have done was given it 256 gb of storage. I might end up going back to the A52 down the road if I end up running out of storage. If you can find this for under 300 dollars I say go for it and if you can't you might as well get something like the A54 which has expandable storage.

    Great review Kevin! - Thanks for posting it. 👍Based on your positive comments I've decided to go with like-new certified pre-owned S21 FE phones for both myself and my wife on a 24-month payment plan with our provider. The monthly payment amount will be $15 per phone, so a great deal. Btw.. you and I share the same last name. Cheers Richard

      @@christabelogb4854 Hi Christa. I'm in Canada and I was going to be getting the S21 FE phones through our cell phone service provider "Fido". But since writing my comment here I have decided to outright buy refurbished model S21 (not "FE") phones from an online retailer - either BestBuy or Newegg. Just trying to work out now which listing gets me the best deal and phones in the best possible condition. Good luck with your search. Cheers Richard

  • @soonsuicidal

    If you are on a budget, I highly recommend S21 FE. Currently in my country, this retails at USD $444 at Samsung official stores. Display is really great and battery may last up to the whole day. The plastic back is subjective depending on the person's preference - aesthetics vs durability. Since it is plastic, it may look cheap but it won't break when dropped unlike the glass back of S23 FE. Another down side is the plastic back is quite slippery so either you use a case or holders like ring or pop socket for a better grip.
    What I hate about this phone are the cameras, both selfie and rear. Pictures are disappointing as it is hit and miss most of the times. Saturation is quite bad especially at colors green, pink, orange, and red. It also tends to make the person a bit wider than usual. No, it's not because of the zoom feature. That's just how it processes the pictures even at normal distance (1x). I had the Snapdragon variant with 8/256 gb so I was expecting that the pics would turn out better than Exynos. If you are not much into photography or selfies then this is a great phone over all. Hope this helps.

      I think it depends on what you use the phone for... how many pictures/videos are you planning to download, the number of apps you'll get in addition to the bloatware pre-installed on the phone. Also, keep in mind that with subsequent software and security updates more storage space is gonna be used up. It should do for the average user though.

    This issue has improve then gets worse then improve again over subsequent updates. I hope the latest (1st Dec 22) update helps.

Before im a big fan of Samsung. But as they make their phones very expensive while the specs are downgraded and a lot of issues appear i will surely switch to other brand.
