Hello everyone I would like to tell us about some of the way we can safe cost on tech. And here to give us some key points on why an old flagship is better than a new mid ranger 😅.. with Samsung s21 as a case study..
We would talk on some things like
● Design
● Performance
● Software
● my Verdict
Introduction
The Samsung galaxy s21 is the entry level Samsung phone that was a flagship that was released in 2021 came with the "safest options", no nonsense phone that would suit the average Joe in 2021 that has money 😅 . It was kinda a boring phone of the line up simple classic everything average for a flagship in 2021 unlike it ultra counter part.
Design
Imagine from business insider.
The design of the Samsung Galaxy S21 is a blend of innovation and practicality,
Which moved from the kind of boring design of the s20 they had the previous year. These are some of its highlights:
• Camera Design: The Galaxy S21 features a unique camera bump design, where the aluminum frame seamlessly integrates with the raised camera cluster, creating a distinctive look..
Having a 12mp ultra wide camera as the main shooter, another 12 mp wide angle angle and lastly a 64 mp telephoto camera which would give you above decent shot in decent light condition and will only see the difference when you compare it with the latest s24 that came out this year in low light condition

• Back Panel: The back panel of the Galaxy S21 has a frosted matte finish, providing a premium feel while being resistant to fingerprints. Despite being made of plastic, it maintains a quality feel and contributes to the phone's lighter weight and pocket-friendly size.
• Display: The phone has a 6.2-inch screen with thin bezels and a flat display, deviating from the curved displays of previous models. While this change may not appeal to all users, the display quality remains excellent for watching videos and playing games.

• Color Options: The Galaxy S21 is available in various pastel shades like phantom violet, pink, blue, and white, allowing users to choose a color that suits their style.
• Materials used: Samsung opted for polycarbonate (plastic) for the back panel instead of Gorilla Glass to reduce costs and maintain a lighter weight. Despite this choice, the phone still have a premium feel. Which is samsung signature move
Performance
Basically there is no app on the playstore even triple A title games that won't run smoothly. Regardless of either you get the exynos or the snapdragon version the only major difference is that it have higher peak performance and optimisation and if you have spent enough time with the exynoss you would know how to optimise your phone and enjoy it without making it heat up as the self established reviewers complain 😅😅😅😅😅. They spend 3 weeks with the phones max actively using it and pick their fav and move on so to me exynos isn't as bad as the media said it to be even my Samsung s9 would play games at low setting smoothly imagine what s21 could do.
Comparing it with mid rangers phone its a no brainer the Samsung s21 beat most mid rangers phone with excellent optimisation and performance no doubt on that if u compare it with the price u get a mid ranger just go for an older flagship.
Software
Samsung promise to give this phone 4 years of software support and 5 years of security update when it first came out but added 1 more year to it considering
How great the phone was.
So that is 5 years of software and 6 years of security 🤔 if u get it now thats would be at least 2 years more of good use 😅😅😅 sooo😏😏😏.
My Vedict.
Overall, the Samsung Galaxy S21 is a solid choice for users looking for a high-performance smartphone with an excellent camera and long-lasting battery life at a competitive price point.
