Customers highly value the Galaxy S21 5G 128GB's camera quality, repeatedly praising its excellent performance. The phone's ease of use and good battery life are also frequently cited as positive aspects. Many appreciate the screen quality and find it to be a significant improvement over previous models. There were no negative customer comments reported.
I needed a new phone because my old one used CDMA technology, which is being phased out next year. Best Buy being my go to for electronics, I visited their website and found the Samsung Galaxy S21 for $300 less than everyone else. We were scheduled to take a cruise, so I figured, why not jump on this deal now. The camera on this thing is amazing, but it really is a handheld computer. I still have a desktop at work, but this device makes life a lot easier, it even functions as a phone. Also, there's no more having the tech person transferring everything from one phone to another, it's now done with an app, Smart Switch. In and out in no time with very little contact.

I bought this as this was the latest samsung and the cheapest. I had been using samsung since the S Epic version (which I still have) and upgraded from the S5. Yes it was a long and good journey with the S5 and I still love that phone as it was flagship phone bar non. Never crashed, Was still fast enough for U tube etc, but the picture taking in low lighting and space for apps to download was severely limited at 16 Gb (really 15). SD card was used for books and storage of pics. Even then this is decent with no extra storage to be had and used 30 percent already, so see it as a problem to keep long term (more than 5 years). For that alone one needs the additional storage or capability added. Also the screens and navigation is lots different from S5, but intuitive. Battery life is better (battery size is bigger than S5) and cameras are better. You do not necessarily have to use flash in low light setting. And neither do you have to hold steady for picture taking to be complete in low light as with the S5. But apart from camera and GBs, I was completely happy with the S5. The quality is good too, for the price. You cannot tell plastic anything. Just use a quality screen protector and back case. Fast too. Chose this over the S20 FE as this had a faster processor, but better camera (slightly) and SD card in the S20 Fe. I bought it as it was 600 bucks, but if you have more to spend, I would suggest the S21 plus. Wish I had bought that one but couldn't bring myself to spend 200 more. Can buy an Active 2 watch with that extra.
