  • Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G smartphone review with all the pros and cons what I felt about the S21 fe after using it for about 2 weeks this comes with the Exynos 2100 SOC and has a 6.4" AMOLED Screen with 120hz refresh rate and is the successor to the popular Samsung galaxy S20 Fe 5g I also show you a lot of pics that I had shot during the past 2 weeks with this Galaxy S21 Fe in this review.

    As Ranjit mentioned the biggest competition of S21 FE is its own S20FE with 13k less. With this price gap it makes complete sense to buy cheaper S20 FE.

    Upgraded from OnePlus 6t to s21 fe, pretty happy with the purchase! Battery life could have been better, but other basics are just done right! Awesome screen, ip68 rating, stereo speakers, weight management is great, in-hand feel is awesome (6.4 screen size is a sweet spot), gorilla glass victus, Android 12 out of the box, clean UI, wireless charging, 5G ready, awesome camera and great processor (no heating issue on daily usage and light gaming (bgmi))
    Accessories you can invest in:
    25W samsung charger ( it includes wire as well): Rs 1999
    c-type to 3.5mm samsung connector (oneplus one doesn't work😂) : Rs 699
    Spigen screen guard (pack of 2) : Rs 1099
    Samsung silicon cover(comes in same colors as that of phone) : Rs 1599

    Ex2100 has improved over the period of time with software updates and one ui interations. I am using S21 ultra as my primary device with 1 Sim of airtel, battery life usually hovers from 5.5 hrs to 6 hrs of SOT with 1 full day (24 hrs) usage. Now with one ui 4.0 I am limiting the charge to 85 percent and that is my SOT. Usually I charge it when battery reaches 25 to 30 percent. That's a decent battery backup in my opinion for flagship processor. When I go for family outing, phone gets charged to 100 percent with 5 to 6 hrs of GPS and maps and it lives till end of the day. So I can confirm that ex2100 is much better than 990 in terms of battery life atleast amd even the heating problem is not there as well.

    Talking about battery, a close look at Ranjit's review shows just 2% drop over 16 minutes of use, including about 20+ times unlocks, which I feel is a decent drop. I hope Ranjit's hand didn't feel the heat that users are now talking about!

      @@tejasparakh7 I don't know man, samsung works better in the long term I think, they can hold on to that 6 hours SOT even after 4 years like my 4½ years old J8 whose battery never got degraded and still gives me about 6-7 SOT, a year ago my friend bought his iPhone 13 pro which gave him about 10-11 hrs of SOT but after a year it degraded to 6-5 hrs but Samsung mobiles' SOT remains constant for years so it's actually a W for samsung.
      I'm using my s21 fe with 120hz refresh rate enabled all the time and still gives me 5-6 hrs of SOT(85 percent to 20 percent battery) but the result is same as my old budget J8 that's why I'm a bit disappointed but if it can sustain that SOT for another 3 years it'd make me happy.

    I have been using S21 FE for the last 2 weeks and I feel that samsung has improved One UI a lot. One UI has smooth and fast animations, no bugs as compared to Oxygen OS 12 (which is an abomination created by Oneplus and Oppo no doubt). There are minor stutters in the UI but that's okay if compared to the messy Oxygen OS 12. Also, the processor is doing a great job from handling day to day tasks without any issue. Yeah, one thing that concerns me is the plastic back. I also have a OnePlus 9R which has the glass back and it feels a lot more premium than plastic back. But that's okay if samsung is using plastic back because it actually helped to reduce the phone weight and also the device does not heat (excluding heavy gaming). The weight of samsung is much lighter than my OnePlus 9R and I am able to use the device longer. Battery backup is good but not awesome and also samsung could have gone for at least 60 watts charger instead of 25 watts. It takes 1 hour and 30 minutes to charge S21 FE while on the other hand the OnePlus 9R gets charged quickly in less than 30 minutes.

    I planned to take s21 fe but ended up taking s20 fe past Thursday 😂 no major changes in between those 2 phones and I was able to save 13k by buying s20 fe. Received android 12 and one ui 4 software update too.. 😊😊
