    The phone lasted a year and seven days. I had $40 dollar phones to last longer than this. to spend this much money on a phone and it goes completely dead exactly seven days after the warranty is over is TERRIBLE. Samsung products are getting worse by the purchase.

    I needed a phone to replace my Google Pixel 2 XL and landed on the Samsung Galaxy S21+. I have been an Android user for a long time and wanted to stay with that OS. Well, less than 5 months using this phone, it is a brick, paper weight. The screen went black on me and there was nothing I could do to fix it. Apparently, this is a very common issue with this phone. Luckily it was under manufacturer warranty, but I have now had to go 5 days without a working phone. When I took it to a Samsung authorized repair center, they gentlemen advised me that I was bringing in the third Samsung S21 phone that day with the same issue and they have had a ton of repairs on these phones. Bottom line, it was a good phone while it lasted but I would steer clear of this phone if you want something that will actually work long term. Headed off to trade this thing in for an Iphone ASAP.

      Hi, Tayy. We are sorry to hear about your experience with the Galaxy S21+ 5G. Samsung can refer an authorized service center to perform any needed repairs. Because your warranty has expired, you would be responsible for the cost of any such repairs. We are more than happy to set up this service for you. If you would like to receive quotes on service/labor from an Authorized Service Center near you, please visit http://www.samsung.com/us/support/service/location and let us know where you would like for us to schedule the repair. ^Kayla Samsung

    This phone is trash. Doesn't keep the network at all. Do not buy. Absolutely do not buy the protection plan through best buy it is the biggest waste of money. I dont regret many things in life but i regret wasting over $1k for a phone that hasnt lastest 9 months and cant get a functional replacement from the protection plan. I am very disappointed in best buy.

    If there is 0 star, I will give 0 star. I spend so much money buy this s21+ phone on March 6th, on June 4th it is totally dead. I can't start it. Bestbuy say they can't help because I didn't buy insurance.
