Product Description
The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G phone is epic in every way, with a striking new design, fastest Galaxy processor yet, a battery that goes all day and then some, and the first Galaxy ever supporting super smooth 120Hz screen refresh rate at WQHD+ resolution, it’s no surprise why Ultra easily lives up to its name. We know your life moves fast, and there’s a fine line between what makes a moment ordinary and what makes it extraordinary. That’s why Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G is purposefully crafted so you don’t need to choose between video and photo. With a single tap, you can pull super-clear stills — up to 33MP — straight from high-resolution 8K video. Use the 108MP high-resolution camera for still shots that come out crystal clear whether it’s day or night. Single Take AI transcends the usual restrictions of photo and video editing to capture life’s greatest moments, wherever they happen, in one single take, capturing images and video for up to 15 seconds. Experience the power of the Galaxy S21 5G series. Innovative and beautifully designed, Samsung 5G phones emphasize the brand’s dedication to the latest cutting-edge technology and next-generation connectivity. Enjoy more sharing, more streaming, more experiences, and more connections at lightning-fast speed. The Galaxy S21+ 5G does not currently support eSim in the U.S. Battery power consumption depends on usage patterns and results may vary. 5G speeds vary and require optimal network and connection (factors include frequency, bandwidth, congestion).

I'll give more detial at the end.
Camera is super high quality, zoom is incredible. Front camera even takes good pics (I mean I looked good, so should you)
Processor is as advertised, insanely fast, even at the standard limited benchmark (there is an enhanced processing mode to take away cpu 70% limit). Desktop mode is great, this phone is almost as fast in Dex as my actual Acer laptop.
Battery life is phenomenal, can get 2 full days out of 1 charge if you use the phone less than 4 or 5 hours a day at 1080p res.
1440p, super clear and one of the bargaining point for the Ultra over the base. The refresh rate of 120 hz is incredible, I spent the first 10 minutes just swiping on the phone in awe of this. The ultra is also the only version with the curved screen,, the s21 and plus have flat screens.. This phone does an excellent job of cooling, even witha case on. (FYI heat causes the major wear and tear on the internal components like the cpu, so better cooling means better lifespan and performance).
Customizable routines allow you to add features to your phone, from automatically silencing when you show up to work or school, automatically going into power save mode at certain times like when you are asleep, or even for when you turn on your Bluetooth headphones your phone can automatically switch to 1440p resolution and turn Dolby atmos on movie mode sound. Dozens of scenarios or time stamps for each feature.
If you are the friend that walks on the grass, don't worry about bringing that bulky charger for when your friends' phones are about to die, this phone can wireless charge other devices (will stop charging when the phone drops to 30% minimum).
If you are concerned about no color options, just remember, I had that beautiful orchid gray s8, and who got to see it? Nobody, because it was hidden behind a lovely teal case for 4 years.
If the fact that Samsung dropped their charging from the 45w of the s20 series to a 25w for the s21, rest assured, there is very little added time for charging, and the 25w is less volatile than the 45w. This means, charging does not get the phone as hot, and the battery will have a better lifespan since slower charging is better long term.
If you multi task a ton and/or save tons of files, consider spending the extra money to get the 512 gb edition, as it comes with an additional 4gb of ram (16gb total).
Ram is what is used to have tabs open, so more ram means more tabs open while still maintaining speed and smoothness. The s21 ultra also has Spen support (need a case that can hold it).
Why the ultra or base and not the plus?
The s21 has a better ppi (pixel density, higher the density, better the picture) than the s21 plus. They both have the same 8gb of ram, the same storage sizes, same resolution, same cameras, same material, same flat screen, the same backwards wireless charging capability (same for ultra), etc. The only difference is the screen size and that the s21 plus has a 4800 mAh battery while the s21 has a 4000 mAh. The ultra however, offers higher resolution, much higher ppi, the larger screen, larger battery than both (5000mAh). The ultra has much more powerful camera as well, the curved screen, camera features and settings. So if you want all the features and performance and screen resolution (I like the stream movies on my lunch breaks) then go with the Ultra, if you just want to upgrade to the newest and fastest phone, and you don't need to have 100000 tabs open, get the base s21.
Build Quality & Design: So I was at first a bit apprehensive about the curved display because I wasn't sure how I would feel about it (every other phone I've had had a flat display), but the curve is subtle enough that it's very easy to get used to and actually adds a bit to the ergonomics of the design. The color looks just as stunning in person as it does in photos and the overall design of the phone looks incredible. The phone feels sturdy and the buttons have a very satisfying click to them and the fingerprint sensor has a great placement and works wonderfully.
Display: The 1440p, 120Hz, display on this phone lives up to its reputation of being the best display you can get on a smartphone in 2021. The colors are vibrant and punchy, the clarity is top-notch, the high refresh rate (variable) really makes the phone feel snappy and quick. The touch sensitivity is also great and never feels like I have to put too much effort into moving around the UI.
UI: I was a bit apprehensive of One UI as I hadn't used a Samsung phone since the Galaxy S4 (and the days of the old TouchWiz) and I have been using Pixel/Nexus phones for the last 6 years. I have been pleasantly surprised, though, by how much it retains the core functionalities of stock Android while adding in features that are actually more useful than I would have guessed they would be (having Google One feed to the left of the homescreen is a great addition by Samsung). From the ease of connecting Samsung peripherals (I have Galaxy Buds+ and a Galaxy Watch 3) to the extended screenshot feature to the baked in screen record and everything in between, Samsung has really matured in their UI to now offer a lot of useful add ons while limiting the unnecessary bloat.
Battery: This is the first phone I've had where I really can feel confident that my battery is going to last me the full day if I'm going to be out and about and away from the charger. Even with full 1440p and 120Hz enabled, I'm easily able to achieve 5 to 6 hours of screen on time with roughly 20 to 24 hours of total battery endurance. On days that I don't push the phone as hard, I can get up to 8 or even 9 hours of screen on time and up to 2 days of overall battery endurance. Only on days that I'm scrolling through videos on TikTok, taking a lot of photos and videos, and really just having the screen on all day do I need to charge it even a little before the day is up (and even then getting it to even 50% is enough to give me confidence for hours).
Camera: My last phone was a Google Pixel 3XL which, at the time, was basically the leading smartphone camera and could produce amazing shots every time. I wouldn't say that this camera is as consistently and easily good, but the potential for great shots is even greater with this phone. Occasionally I have to take a few different shots to get the one that I want, but when I get what I want, it looks incredible. And this applies to all of the cameras, which brings me to the second point ... The variety of cameras here makes the experience wonderful. I'll frequently take 3 or 4 different shots utilizing all of the cameras to gain different perspectives and image profiles and nearly every time I get impressive photos from every lens (yes, even the 10x zoom camera can pull off pretty stunning imagery). The camera is definitely a high point for this camera, but you do need to be willing to work with it a bit more than you would on a Pixel or iPhone which are better quick point and shoot cameras, but lack some of the diversity of use that you can get with the Galaxy S21 Ultra.
Conclusion: Overall, this phone is just incredible from top to bottom and is by far the best phone that I've ever owned. I would recommend this to anyone that is willing to pay a bit more for a premium device.

La mejor compra que puedes hacer pero cuida que sea la versión Snapdragon, sino no puedes descargar la Gcam.
A un mes de uso les digo que todo va perfecto. Me llegó al día siguiente el equipo, sin ningún defecto y ha funcionado excelente. No hay tema con la red celular. Las fotos son buenísimas, la rapidez del equipo también.
A 5 meses de uso les comento que sigue funcionando al 100, no he tenido que recurrir a garantía. Cambié de compañía telefónica 2 veces y no hubo tema tampoco.
