Samsung S21 Ultra |
The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra made a new history when it was released, this cellphone is the initial Galaxy S mobile phone that sustains the S Pen and the very first Samsung cellular phone in Indonesia that sustains 5G networks.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra likewise supplies long battery life thanks to using Samsung's most current Exynos chipset, which is much more power efficient.
However, Samsung does not now give a microSD port as well as the built-in charger directly the Galaxy S21 Ultra. And the electronic camera despite the fact that it offers numerous renovations however the quality is a little bit unsatisfactory in reduced light problems.
Summary
The Galaxy S21 Ultra looks attractive with a cam design that blends into the framework of the mobile phone. The battery lasts a long period of time paired with fast efficiency. The electronic camera, although it brings numerous renovations, is however not good in low light conditions.
Layout
There are 2 shade selections for the Galaxy S21 Ultra in Indonesia, specifically Phantom Black and also Phantom Silver. The color Phantom Black I used for this evaluation looks sophisticated with a matte black coating.
I choose a matte version similar to this over a reflective one. Plus, thanks to this matte black shade, fingerprints do not stick conveniently as well as the phone doesn't slip quickly.
Galaxy S21 Ultra presents a brand-new layout style with the projection area of the rear electronic camera which is currently integrated with the light weight aluminum frame on the side of the cellular phone. This makes the video camera area look much more in harmony with the total design of the cellular phone.
Samsung has actually likewise revived the ring-shaped video camera lens decoration layout style on the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra to the Galaxy S21 Ultra. The cam looks intriguing, not just a camera opening like the one found on the Galaxy S20 Ultra.
But also for some reason, the area of the rear video camera lens ring is prone to fine hairs tucked into it. I that have actually maintained a feline in your home several times saw a cat hair stuck in that area. Luckily these are easy to tidy.
The dimensions of the Galaxy S21 Ultra can be stated to be huge and thick. The corners of the cellphone are curved to make sure that I can easily hold the Galaxy S21 Ultra.
It's just that its weight which gets to 227 grams makes my hands obtain aching much faster when using the Galaxy S2 Ultra for a long time. Thankfully, the weight is rather equally dispersed throughout the phone to ensure that it minimizes this issue a bit.
Samsung S21 Ultra
On the side of the cellular phone, besides not being found a headphone jack like the majority of mobile phones today, there was additionally no MicroSD card port. This makes Galaxy S21 Ultra customers unable to boost the internal capability of their mobile phones.
The tiniest interior capability of the Galaxy S21 Ultra which is 128GB is really enough. Nevertheless, if you commonly utilize it for pictures, taping video clips, or saving great deals of movies, it would certainly be better to utilize the internal storage version of 256GB as well as above.
In the Galaxy S21 Ultra packaging box, there is a striking difference contrasted to previous generations. The appearance is much thinner than typical.
This is since Samsung has currently followed Apple's steps in getting rid of the built-in charger heads and earphones. Whereas originally Samsung had actually mocked Apple when it eliminated these elements.
Inside the box for the Galaxy S21 Ultra, there are currently only the mobile phone itself, a USB-C cable, a handbook, and a SIM ejector.
Screen
The Galaxy S21 Ultra uses a screen modern technology comparable to the Galaxy S20 Ultra, namely Dynamic AMOLED 2X with support for a 120Hz revitalize rate and also HDR10.
The distinction is that the Galaxy S21 Ultra's display is a little brighter and more power efficient. The screen of the Galaxy S21 Ultra is also secured with Gorilla Glass Victus, as is the glass on the back of the cellphone.
The display dimension of the Galaxy S21 Ultra reaches 6.8 ". Nevertheless, because of the curved edges of the mobile phone, the wide display video clip web content is a little cut off.
The 120Hz freshen price on the Galaxy S21 Ultra is triggered in flexible setting, which means the refresh rate adjusts to the screen display problems to conserve battery power.
The application of the adaptive refresh rate on the Galaxy S21 Ultra really feels more optimal than the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. As long as I utilize this mobile phone with an adaptive refresh rate, the battery life continues to be sturdy.
I typically wind up shutting off the 120 Hz refresh rate because it draws the battery a fair bit, this is the first time I allow it continue to be active on the Galaxy S21 Ultra.
This flexible refresh rate can also be combined with a WQHD + display resolution. However, if these two functions are triggered at the exact same time, it will certainly drain the mobile phone battery quicker.
Performance
The Galaxy S21 Ultra makes use of Samsung's newest chipset, the Exynos 2100, integrated with 12GB of RAM (16GB if the interior capability variation is 512GB).
Previously, several Exynos chipset mobile individuals grumbled regarding the lack of efficiency and battery life contrasted to the Snapdragon variation. Samsung seems to have actually taken care of to fix the trouble a bit on this Exynos 2100 chipset.
As long as I utilize it, the performance of the Galaxy S21 Ultra has actually been fast although it is still approximately substandard to Snapdragon 888 which has a higher benchmark rating.
I have never experienced lag or stutter while running the Galaxy S21 Ultra for day-to-day tasks. When used to play various games, the efficiency is smooth.
The next enhancement in the Galaxy S21 Ultra is that Samsung has actually lastly brought a brand-new variation of the ultrasonic finger print scanner. Finger print scanning is fast as well as hardly ever falls short.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra currently sustains 5G networks, however due to the fact that this network is not yet available in Indonesia, this function is a bit redundant. Perhaps in the following 2-3 years after the 5G network begins to be implemented, the advantages will certainly be really felt.
S Pen assistance
The Galaxy S21 Ultra is the very first Galaxy S smartphone to support the S Pen. Previously the S Pen was just located in the Galaxy Note as well as Galaxy Tab lines.
This has actually made a lot of people ask whether the Galaxy Note collection will certainly be closed down or otherwise by Samsung. I don't understand, this answer will only be seen at the end of 2021.
The S Pen function on the Galaxy S21 Ultra is not as innovative as the most up to date Galaxy Note. You might state the current attributes are much more like the attributes of the old Galaxy Note collection whose S Pen does not yet make use of Bluetooth innovation.
Numerous things can be made with the S Pen on the Galaxy S21 ultra from scribble to clever pick. What it can't do is the S Pen features that require Bluetooth such as remote or motions.
Samsung gives an unique S Pen for the Galaxy S21 Ultra which is a plan with a cellphone guard and also is priced at a rather pricey cost of Rp. 899,000 for the least expensive version.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra is really suitable with the existing S Pen in the Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Note series. I myself took care of to make use of the S Pen Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and Galaxy Tab S3 on this phone, which the rate of the S Pen accessories is less costly.
Camera
The Galaxy S21 Ultra uses a four back video camera configuration including a 108MP wide lens, a 12MP ultra-wide lens, and a 10MP dual telephoto lens. On top of that, there is a laser car focus sensor and also a 40MP front video camera.
In my viewpoint there are three major improvements in the Galaxy S21 Ultra video camera, namely fast emphasis, far better close-up picture high quality and can also do macro pictures, as well as optical zoom at two different magnification degrees.
And also, the ultra-wide lens currently features twin pixel car focus. This makes the cam can be used to take pictures at a really close range via the Focus Enhancer function.
Focus Enhancer will instantly activate on the Galaxy S21 Ultra video camera application if it discovers a photo item that is really near the video camera. This attribute can be disabled by hand if desired.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra makes use of a special telephoto electronic camera setup, particularly two telephoto video cameras efficient in optical magnifying of 3x and also 10x.
With these 2 kinds of optical zoom, photo quality is preserved whether zooming at a range or at close quarters.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra can additionally do a crossbreed zoom of up to 100x although in my viewpoint it is much less helpful and the results are bad.
If Samsung normally has a tendency to lighten up selfie pictures, currently there is an alternative to generate even more all-natural selfies. This option can be picked the very first time you take a selfie or through the setups menu in the camera application.
For this testimonial I made use of the all-natural choice which I choose. And sure enough my skin tone looks a lot more all-natural below. The details of my face are also videotaped well.
The portrait mode on the front camera of the Galaxy S21 Ultra produces pictures with a neat bokeh result. The surface texture of my face additionally looks more detailed compared to regular mode.

Battery
One last aspect of the Galaxy S21 Ultra that truly satisfied me was the battery. This is many thanks to the use of the Exynos 2100 chipset which is a lot more power effective than the previous generation.
Galaxy S21 Ultra can last for more than one day of usage. In adaptive refresh rate setting, I can get Screen in a timely manner for 5 hrs 3 mins from 100% battery to 10%. If you make use of the 60Hz refresh rate setting, it will definitely last longer.
When I checked the battery making use of the COMPUTER Mark application with the lights setting at 50%, 100% battery, as well as flexible refresh price, the resulting score was 10 hrs 7 mins. In various tests with a 60Hz refresh price, the resulting score is 11 hrs 35 minutes.
