Ryan reviews the S21 Ultra. It's way better than the S20 and laterally better than the Note 20 Ultra.
PricingThe tiny one starts at $799 but comes with reduced features and a plastic back! Oh no!S21+ is $999S21 Ultra is $1199 which is technically $100 cheaper than the Note 20 Ultra from August 2020DisplayFirst S-line phone with adaptive 120hzRounded design makes it look smallerFor some reason, not flat like the other S21 modelsPhysicalsLook and feel, build qualityFootprintIt’s a bit taller, a bit less wide than the N20UIt weighs a ton thoughBattery5000 mAhIt lasts for two days easily, but I still charge at night, but I don’t feel bad if I don’tCharging25w charging, no more 45w option – but that’s okThe brick was NOT in the box – laughing at Apple still?

You can have one now… but without bluetooth, the best partDid you want a real Note instead? Note 20 Ultra might be last option for you unless you like the Flip and Flop and Fold models for $1500 base pricesIt’s an improvement above the S20U although it’s a side-grade from the Note 20 UltraAttributions
