\nPricing
\n
\nThe tiny one starts at $799 but comes with reduced features and a plastic back! Oh no!
\nS21+ is $999
\nS21 Ultra is $1199 which is technically $100 cheaper than the Note 20 Ultra from August 2020
\n
\n
\nDisplay
\n
\nFirst S-line phone with adaptive 120hz
\nRounded design makes it look smaller
\nFor some reason, not flat like the other S21 models
\n
\n
\nPhysicals
\n
\nLook and feel, build quality
\n
\nFootprint
\n
\nIt\u2019s a bit taller, a bit less wide than the N20U
\nIt weighs a ton though
\n
\n
\n
\n
\nBattery
\n
\n5000 mAh
\nIt lasts for two days easily, but I still charge at night, but I don\u2019t feel bad if I don\u2019t
\n
\n
\nCharging
\n
\n25w charging, no more 45w option – but that\u2019s ok
\nThe brick was NOT in the box – laughing at Apple still? No? Great!
\n
\n
\nPorts
\n
\nType C is all you need
\n
\n
\nSpeakers
\n
\nNot radically different than N20U
\n
\n
\nButtons
\n
\nNo bixby button
\nButtons on the right
\n

\nCPU
\n
\n888
\n
\n875 is for premium minus products… what is Qualcomm doing?
\n
\n
\n
\n
\nRAM
\n
\n12GB; but you could have 512GB storage with 16GB of RAM
\n
\n
\nStorage
\n
\nThis model has 256GB of storage but we have no Micro SD now!
\nWhat\u2019s going on here?
\n
\n
\n
\n
\nSoftware
\n
\nAndroid 11 is nice out of the box but nothing major changed as far as I can tell
\n
\n
\nCamera
\n
\nIt\u2019s a bit smarter with macro shots now, using the wide lenses to pretend to be a macro lens
\nZoom is more nuanced now, with \u201cSpace Zoom\u201d gone but present in implementation
\n
\n3x zoom and 10x zoom have their own\xa0
\n

\n
\nFinal thoughts
\n
\nDid you want an S Pen? You can have one now… but without bluetooth, the best part
\nDid you want a real Note instead? Note 20 Ultra might be last option for you unless you like the Flip and Flop and Fold models for $1500 base prices
\nIt\u2019s an improvement above the S20U although it\u2019s a side-grade from the Note 20 Ultra
