With Samsung eager to start a new year on the right foot, the Korean brand has taken the initiative to launch its Galaxy S21 series phones earlier than their usual Feb-Mar cycle. Together, the three models (Samsung Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+, and Galaxy S21 Ultra) bring a combination of new flagship processors, pro-grade cameras, and incremental improvements alongside 5G-readiness.
New features and significant improvements were made to photography and videography despite having camera hardware similar to last year’s Galaxy S20 series phones. There’s Director’s View with two more sub-features for more videography options, and then there’s Cinematic 8K Snap for lifting still images out of 8k24fps videos. Single Take, Portrait Mode, and even Space Zoom got some upgrades. The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra receives a special mention here because it has S Pen support. It also has two telephoto rear lenses, making its 100x Space Zoom more powerful.
Samsung kept most of its original Galaxy S design language without changing too much. The Korean brand took great care in showcasing its Contour Cut Camera housing design, adding a dimension of premium finish.
The S21 has Phantom Grey and Phantom White if you want a muted look, while the S21+ has Phantom Black and Phantom Silver, the two plainerlooking colourways that are also on the S21 Ultra. Phantom Violet, the flagship colour for the S21 series, is only available on the regular S21 and S21+. We think it’s a lost opportunity for the S21 Ultra since you’re limited to its monochrome palette there.
