Samsung Galaxy S21+ 5G Smartphone SIM Free Android Mobile Phone Phantom Black 128GB, (UK Version)

Camera is good, as expected for the price range. So is the build quality which feels nice and sturdy. Dual sim function is appreciated and the 256GB storage means you wont miss an SD card.It does feel a bit heavy (comparing to my old OnePlus 5 of 150g, to this which is 200g). Adding a cover to it will make it heavier and bulkier (it is a big phone). But these are the standards for new phones. It will take some getting use to.Battery life has not been great so far, around 4 hours on screen time but this is in the 2/3 days I have had the phone. It will probably improve over time when it learns my usage patterns and if I apply some optimisation tricks.The finger and facial recognitions are not as fast as my old phone but considering that it doesnt have a dedicated sensor (finger) as my old phone, but rather an in-screen one, the speed is expected and impressive. Not a deal breaker.Overall it is a good phone, especially at the price I got it for on sale.

Fantastic purchase.As you would expect from a flagship device its super quick.The screen is amazing even though its 1080p and not 4k you don't really notice the difference in my opinion.The 120 hertz refresh rate is pleasing to the eye and you can notice the difference.I opted for the 256gb version though as sadly no micro SD card expansion.The phone takes beautiful photos and videos are supported up to 8k resolution.I don't play games on the phone but use it for social media and YouTube.I can get 2 days battery life from the phone but that will vary from person to person.Comes with a pre installed screen protector as well as protective film on the aluminium side frame so remember to leave these on.No back protection though so you will probably be better with a case.The finger print scanner works very well as does the face recognition.Overall its a fantastic phone that's fast and reliable with a beautiful display and very good battery life.

I now use my phone for the majority of my digital life, in the same way that we used to use Filofaxes! I wouldn't want to do without it. The camera is far superior than on my previous Samsung S9, all the functions are much quicker, and the battery lasts much longer between charges than my previous phone. Battery life was always a negative on Samsung phones, but no longer, thank goodness. I now use apps much more than I used to, and now no longer use my ipad. The Samsung S21+ is an excellent phone and I would thoroughly recommend it.

Update 1 month on.This phone is amazing, honestly it's the first time I've kept feeling like this for so long after a purchase! Amazing phone, even typing feels fantastic, reception is amazing, the use on Bluetooth headphones are amazing, I get no interrupt of signal between the phone and headphones like I used to get.The screen is so amazing at any angle. Absolutely live it.When you first switch it on you may be pessimistic of the screen performance but that because (for some reason) samsung own wallpaper that are pre installed make the screen looked washed out. I immediately tried other wallpapers and they are amazing. Samsung made a error there as some people may have felt the screen wasn't as good as it is.Upgraded from Galaxy s9 to s21+Immediately noticed a significant performance increase in all areas. Most people will have seen reviews on YouTube so you probably know all the nitty gritty details by know so I won't bore you with stuff that you already seen and spec and that.Day 1: everything works super fast and responsive, screen is beautiful, battery I sooooo amazing 👏 and the camera is also amazing so far.If you of the Galaxy s9 generation or older in terms of your current smartphone then this is worth the upgrade and you should look no further.Also, there is no other Andriod out that is as complete as the flagship samsung galaxy's for the past few years, some come close but let's be fair, if you want the best user experience there is only 2 choices out there! For Andriod it's Samsung galaxy's or it's a iPhone (which I'm not a fan of 😁)Very happy customer, I can see this lasting a good few years before I want and upgrade so if your on the fence I would say go for it, you won't be disappointed!

I have been a Samsung /Android fan for the past 5 years and always trailed the leading edge models, buying refurbished models to avoid binding long-term contracts - mainly as I've lost a few phones over the years.The offer from the Amazon refurbished store of a S21+ was a jump to the current model - but as I've been having eyesight issues during lockdown, the LARGER SCREEN was the main attraction - and I've not regretted the choice.The S21+ fits all my existing cordless chargers and car mount/cradles as it's only marginally wider than my previous S9.It's 5G ready for when this rolls out to the wilds of West Sussex, so future proof for the next 5 years.The onscreen fingerprint reader worked until I added a glass screen cover, and has caused my biometric fingerprint authentication on my banking apps to stop working - I've gone back to using a PIN for these which is the only downside- but I'd rather not risk scratching the screen on a new large phone.Battery life is more than a day, based on higher than normal usage during lockdown assuming it's not used as a gaming machine by the kids.No regrets here - enjoy and please add a like if thisxwas useful!

I was skeptical at 1st but the seller was quick to respond and the phone has tonnes of memory, loads of functions and the quickness is amazing. After spending months contemplating on what phone to buy this was priced well and is great device, especially to connect to a house full of gadgets and devices. Battery life is amazing.
