Samsung Galaxy 21 review
Phones have been status symbols for ages, even before iPhones were a thing. Who could forget the slider hotness of the Nokia N95 back in ‘06? Just us? OK. Samsung has come up with a phone that actually looks like a status symbol here. And while the Galaxy S21 has a slightly naff-sounding plastic back, this is arguably the best-looking of the entire S21 family. No ridiculous excess of cameras, and the smaller frame gives the funky camera array even greater prominence on the back. The Galaxy S21 is perhaps more a style icon than a tech one, as it is actually a downgrade from the Galaxy S20 in some respects. However, we love its rear camera array. There’s zero bloat, Samsung squeezes every last bit of photographic utility from each sensor and these cameras just try so hard to please your eyeballs with every frame they capture. Battery life may be a sticking point for some of you. It’s no big surprise from a slightly smaller phone, but if you want an Android that might last up to two days between charges, the Samsung Galaxy S21 isn’t it.- It’s as stylish as phones come
- Great cameras
- Pocket-friendly size
- Relatively short battery life
- It back is plastic, not glass

Samsung Galaxy S21 Phantom Grey (128GB) SM-G991BZADXNZ review
Samsung’s Galaxy S21 is a more refined, smarter and crucially cheaper new flagship phone. With Samsung removing as much from this phone as it adds, I was prepared to be let down by the Galaxy S21. But I needn’t have worried.- Excellent dynamic 120Hz display, Powerful performance, Refined design, Powerful camera zoom
- No charger or microSD card slot, Plastic back, Some camera inconsistencies
