The first big smartphone reveal of 2021.
Samsung has announced its latest slate of flagships with the the Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21 Plus, and the Galaxy S21 Ultra.
All of the new devices in the S21 series are 5G ready and you’ll notice that there’s been some big design changes from previous series, especially in the camera array.
It’s probably easiest to divide the three phones into two categories, the first of which includes the S21 and S21 Plus which aims to bring users a genuine flagship experience, while not being quite as heavy (but still pretty heavy) on your wallet. The S21 starts from €879 and goes up to €929 while the S21 starts at €1089 and goes up to €1139.
Meanwhile the S21 Ultra, the pinnacle of Samsung’s innovation, leaves no stone unturned and tries to offer users everything they could want in a smartphone. Of course, there’s a price tag which reflects this starting at €1299 and rising to €1479.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra features a 6.8″ Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and has a better processor, display and cameras than it’s smaller brethren.
It’s got a new sensor for better low light images and it will be the first Galaxy S phone to support Samsung’s S Pen stylus.
The S21 and S21 Plus which come with 6.2″ and 6.7″ AMOLED 2X Infinity-O screens respectively.
