    Purchased to replace an S9+ with a dying battery. The biggest difference I noticed was the smoothness of the higher refresh rate on the display. It would be have been great if Samsung also incorporated a fingerprint reader on the back. On display fingerprint reader is okay. Unlocking the phone with my index finger was better and faster on the S9+.

    S21+ 5G is a beast!

    I purchased this phone to replace a Pixel 5 that just stopped working. The S21+ 5G is a physical beast. It's very large and very heavy. The cameras are great. That said, I had no way to carry it easily. I tried all of the posted "fixes", but I could not increase the phone volume to the point that it was easily audible when used in the presence of any "noise." I was disappointed that it did not come with the native night light and anti-spam call features of the Pixel 5. I'm sure it's great for streaming videos, making movies, etc., but I don't need that stuff. For me, the phone failed of its essential purpose (i.e., functioning as a phone). Returned it in favor of another Pixel.

    It’s serving it’s purpose and holding up great so far. No complains as of yet, had the phone about a month now.. had to replace old phone due to cracked screen, so far with a protective screen everything is intact still. Hoping it stays that way.

    Fantastic phone! I bought the Motorola edge and found out the hard way that it doesn't work with Android auto,which i use all the time for traveling with google maps. No problem hooking this one up. Plugged it in and immediately started to work.

    After leaving Apple iPhones in 2012, I've gone through an LG Nexus 5, Motorola Nexus 6, Google Pixel 3 and now a Samsung Galaxy S21+ 5G. I'm very impressed with this phone so far. Learning new things about it every day. Nicely done Samsung!

    I had done some research before buying this phone. It's worked as perfectly as I had expected. Screen is great and the 120hz helps, snapdragon chip is super fast. No complaints.

    I'm only giving it a 4 because I can't use it yet. Would have been helpful if there was a notice saying older chargers and cables won't work. Now I have to make a trip to get new cables and charger. Other than that, the phone looks terrific. Can't wait to use it.

    Too soon to tell, but if this phone performs as well and lasts as long as my previous Samsung phones (S3 & S6) I'll be satisfied. Very comfortable to handle and easy on the eyes. There is a learning curve but after a week I'm pretty used to it.

    Purchased for my husband and another for myself. We got tired of our old straight talk phone and wanted to go back to android. Slipped the sim in and our orginal service was transferred in an instant. Great phone

    Purchase for my mother to replace her Galaxy s7. She has been ok with it, alot of new stuff for her to learn and play with. Her only complaint was that she could no longer use her s7 charger adapter and car charger because the charging cable was not compatible.

    I have been using this phone for over a week and what a beauty. Works 10 times better than the S10+, less dropped calls, greater coverage even in known dead spots that I had with the S10+
