Samsung S21 Ultra 5G : Is it worth?

by

Being a fan of photography, recently I heard a lot about the BRAND NEW LAUNCHED Samsung Galaxy S21 range of the phone. Samsung Galaxy Samsung Phone had attracted me recently with the beautiful pictures and video quality.

And right away, after watching the teaser and testing the phone is the Samsung Outlet, I am  totally in love with it. With the launched of the new phone back in 14th January 2021, Samsung Malaysia comes up with the series comprises of the; Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+, and the Galaxy S21 Ultra.

SIZE 

Compare to the other two models; the size is slightly bigger where it comes with  the other two phone. But, comparable, they are just perfect to hold and the grip is good as well.

Dimensions: 165.1 x 75.6 x 8.9mm

Weight: 227g

The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G package consists of
?1 Unit of Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra
?1 Unit of Type C to Type C USB Cable
?1 Unit of Ejection Pin

COLOURS

 

Talking about Samsung Galaxy S21 5G onhand, the exterior is simply beautiful. The phone comes with 2 choices of colour which is the Phantom Black and also the Phantom Silver.  I am sold with the elegant luxurious furnished where the Phantom Black is perfect and beautiful and they are coated in a luxurious haze finish.

BATTERY LIFE 

On a basic level, S21 5G is a very fast phone with decent battery life. Being active in social media, whatsapp, and replying email, I am able to get through a full day on the 5,000mAh battery. Overall, I feel the battery is pretty good as I do not need to charge them at least 2 times a day.

CAMERA

I am loving their camera where they are completed with the  12MP ultra-wide camera + 108MP wide camera with OIS + 10MP 3x telephoto camera + 10MP 10x telephoto camera (100x Space Zoom) + Laser AF sensor. There are two telephoto lenses, giving you better quality in the different zoom range. And of course the Camera is the KEY to me especially when choosing a phone. I had tried a few things with the phone and all the pictures which is taken below have zero edit at all.

Being a foodie, we of course tried their FOOD function which is pretty impressive


FOOD FUNCTION

It brings you with the detailed focus at the food you wanted to focus and they will have the bokeh effect at the back which is perfect for those who love to take bokeh effect for food.
With one touch normal photography in the room, the photos are pretty amazing and clear too which i love the most. You can shot at anywhere so easy and you do not need a camera anymore.
BEST SHOT MODE
Using the BEST SHOT mode, it helps you to  position the right place to shoot and it makes the overall pictures so beautiful and at the right position for a beautiful IG Photo! Isnt that cool?
 
ZOOM 1.5x
I had also tried to zoom the pictures to 1.5 x and try to capture the details of the cake which is the durian inside the cake. And the photos comes up amazing where the details are beautifully captured.

FLOWERS 

We tried some random shots at the market and with no edits at all, the pictures are impressive and you can see the details too.

NIGHT VIEW

It brings you with the beautiful nightview where shot too.

PERFORMANCE

The performance is tip top. I can do my video editing easily and there is no lag at all. They are so good, which I can do my daily report, video editing, tik tok and everything so smoothly. And not just that, playing games with this phone is no longer a problem anymore. Playing the high graphic games such as Roblox, and Minecraft is no longer an issue only!

EPIC PHOTO WITH 8K VIDEO

8K Video is the highest resolution in a smartphone and with this, you can have great footage. And you can now make your own footage like a pro with the phone. And with 8K 24fps, every vlog and memory is your next shot at stardom. Record, upload and watch right on YouTube. Then use 8K Video Snap to get an album of high-quality 33MP pics right out of every 8K video. It’s easy to record now, then snap later.


We did not try them with the 8k video but we do take a video with the zoom effect and i can say they are pretty impressive as well.

WIRELESS POWER SHARE

Besides having a Super Fast Charging (25w); this is indeed the most important especially for me, and now they comes up with the Fast Wireless Charging 2.0 that helps you to quickly charge and power up without the cable. No cable no fear! And now; I love it after trying them as it allows me to charge my phone, as well as other wireless charging devices in one goal.

5G

Yes, 5G is coming soon but even though is not here yet but with this, it is really a must to get us well prepared.

OVERALL EXPERIENCE 

Overall I can say, I am impressed with the colour, quality and performance. The photo quality is marvelous and for normal usage of photography on social media and website usage, they are just perfect. You can bring them to events and get a nice photo with the zoom effect or even taking a good video is no longer a problem. Editing video and more is also great where i am totally impressed with every thing. It is definately a great phone to go for!
