“The Galaxy S21+ 5G is a classier, bigger version of the S21, and while it has excellent quality, it doesn't drastically improve on the S20+, or reach the heights of the S21 Ultra.”

I think the Galaxy S21+ is a good phone, a more polished version of the Galaxy S20+. If you are planning to upgrade from the Galaxy S20 to the Galaxy S21+, keep using your current phone for another year or so. But if you are coming from the Galaxy S9 or S10, the Galaxy S21+ will surely impress you.

Love this phone, camera is just great. Have taken some great photos without any trouble. Phone keeps charged for much longer and has the extra quick charge. Phone is clear and all functions are just perfect for someone like me who has just turned up and loves having a good phone to keep in touch...

Had the phone a few weeks. Initial impressions are that it does what it is supposed to do. Does not have screen indication to show a notification unless the phone is in use and screen on (my old phone did S7). My main gripe is how easily the screen marks....... get a screen protector asap.

The Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus is probably the sweet-spot when it comes to this year’s Galaxy range, but it’s far from perfect.

In the end, the S21+ is a decent smartphone

Very nice design, Snappy and quick, Big battery

Expensive, Lower resolution display compared to its predecessor, Camera isn't at the level of other flagships

This is the latest offering from Samsung to cross my desk. While it supports 5G it also works perfectly well for those of us who do not have those faster transfer speeds available on our doorsteps.

If you're undecided between the Samsung Galaxy S21 or S21 Ultra, perhaps the Galaxy S21 Plus is the better fit?...

For the last several years, Samsung's flagship Galaxy S phones have been split into three variants: a kitchen sink smartphone at the high-end, an entry-level device, and that phone in the middle you probably don't think about.

Flat display A flat OLED is more comfortable to use than a curved one, and this is a very good panel., Thin and light The S21+ is substantially thinner and lighter than the S21 Ultra.

No microSD You'll have to make do with the included storage on Samsung's latest phones., Software Samsung's One UI has improved a lot, but there are still more ads and bloatware than there ought to be on a $1,000 phone., No real telephoto camera Samsung's fancy "hybrid" zoom is digital, not optical.

If you've read the full review, you would have noticed my positive attitude towards the Galaxy S21+. If you are neutral, then this is a modern, beautiful, speedy, and extremely capable smartphone with a decent array of cameras after taking the 3x zoom out of the equation (which turns out to be a...

Brilliant 120 Hz display, Exynos 2100 chipset, Fresh design, Well-built, Great triple camera performance, OneUI 3.1 with long term updates

Telephoto camera performance not up to par, No microSD memory card slot, 4,800 mAh battery life, S-Pen incompatibility, Simply too few innovations
