Samsung cut $200 off the price of all three Galaxy S21 phones. The Galaxy S21 and S21 Plus come with a bunch of upgrades and refinements, including a striking new color scheme. But aside from their price, the phones aren’t massively different from their S20 counterparts. In fact, it seems Samsung scaled back on certain specs and features. We take a look at the tradeoffs that were made to hit that lower price.

    No sdcard, that was the selling point for Samsung phones over iPhone, not now then.

    No charger? Meh. Whatever. No SD card expansion? I’m passing.

    I’ll never buy a phone with no SD card. It’s so much easier to transfer the data over from SD card then the cloud.

    If you’re struggling financially, you shouldn’t be looking into buying a new phone. In just saying.

    I just got s20 fe 5g on December and have no issues whatsoever, why upgrade if there is no significant difference between s20 and s21?

    New flagship trend:
    Yesterday: No 3.5 mm jack
    Today: No power brick included in box! 😂

    Luckily I did not buy S20. It would looked like ancient phone compared to S21.

    S21 in my country is capped at 128gb without micro sd card expansion. What kind of sick joke is this.

    First Samsung make fun of Apple for not including full accessories, then they do the same thing… why ah?

    Any color i’ll be fine, 😅😅
    I’ll go wth basic S21, less than 1000$ but this flagship is enough.

    WOW. Samsung really screwed this one up – this is NO excuse for removing the SD card. Couldn’t even offer a fully featured ‘pro’ phone for the $999 that didn’t have all the compromises. I’m so sick of only the MASSIVE unpocketable, un-one-handable, phones getting the un compromised features. Now in 2021 if someone wants to upgrade to the latest AND greatest Samsung phone they will have to pick up a USED S20.
