Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra review
Surprise, the Galaxy S21 Ultra is launching a month earlier than anticipated, and that’s good news if you’re eager to own the very best of what Samsung can pack into a smartphone. It wowed us with a huge screen, five cameras and the best zoom on any readily available Android phone. Caution: while it's cheaper than last year’s ‘Ultra’ phone, it remains pricey for average consumers, and it doesn’t come with a microSD card slot nor does it include a charger.
Pros:
- The best camera zoom
- Mesmerizing design
- S Pen support
Cons:
- Expensive at any level
- No microSD card slot
- Just 128GB of storage to start

Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra review: The top dog?
The clear flagship in the S21 family - and a better performer than the smaller S21 and S21+ models, thanks to its better cameras - the Ultra is the pick for those who want all the best that Samsung offers. Its great display, stacks of power and performance, is only tempered slightly by battery life that's quick to drain when put under pressure.
Pros:
- Great new finish and improved design
- Powerful internal hardware
- Adaptive refresh rate
- S Pen stylus support
- Camera performance
- Stands apart from rest of S21 range
Cons:
- No microSD card slot
- Undeniably expensive
- Camera setup more confusing than it needs to be
- Battery life isn't great under pressure

Samsung Galaxy S21 ULTRA (512GB) 5G Phantom Black SM-G998BZKHXNZ review
Samsung’s Galaxy S21 Ultra is more affordable than last year’s flagship, has more cameras, and adds an S Pen: on paper, at least, what’s not to love? Setting the bar for smartphones in 2021, the daddy of the currently three-strong Galaxy S21 family promises more of that monstrously effective Samsung...
Pros:
- Fantastic 120Hz display makes no resolution compromise
- 108MP camera is capable of great photos
- More affordable than last year's flagship phone
- Potent performance and long battery life
- S Pen functionality is a welcome addition from Galaxy Note
Cons:
