Samsung domina lo spazio dei telefoni Android e per una buona ragione. Ha aperto la strada a cose che diamo per scontate al giorno d’oggi come enormi schermi. Il produttore di telefoni coreano ha già adottato un approccio tipo”lancia tutto contro il muro per vedere cosa si attacca”. E anche se in passato poteva sembrare sciocco, questo MO ci ha fornito caratteristiche fondamentali.

Con il Galaxy S21 Plus, tuttavia, Samsung fa un passo indietro, limitandosi a offrire invece un , dispositivo a grande schermo. Tutta l’attenzione esagerata era sulla Galaxy S21 Ultra , mentre il Galaxy S21 e S21 Plus sono aggiornamenti più iterativi sui loro predecessori S20.

Anche se siamo condizionati non solo a volere le cose più recenti, ci viene anche insegnato che l’ultima versione dovrebbe offrire aggiornamenti significativi. Alcuni potrebbero vedere alcune delle scelte di design con il Galaxy S21 Plus come downgrade o Samsung in piedi, ma io sostengo che non è così. Nonostante si senta il goffo figlio di mezzo della famiglia S21, l’S21 Plus offre molto da amare.

Recensione Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus cheat sheet

  • Il Galaxy S21 Plus utilizza un grande e bellissimo display AMOLED dinamico da 6,7 ​​pollici con una frequenza di aggiornamento adattiva di 120 Hz e supporto HDR10 +. I colori risaltano, il testo è molto nitido e lo schermo diventa molto luminoso.
  • Il teleobiettivo con zoom ottico ibrido 3x di S21 Plus ti consente di avvicinarti molto al soggetto della foto. Come parte della nuova funzione Space Zoom, Samsung utilizza l’intelligenza artificiale per bloccare la fotocamera sul soggetto, riducendo al minimo il tremolio della mano.
  • Il sensore di impronte digitali in-display dell’S21 Plus è più grande di quello dei precedenti dispositivi Galaxy ; è anche abbastanza preciso.
  • A $ 999, il Galaxy S21 Plus è un telefono costoso che è lo stesso in quasi ogni aspetto del suo fratello più piccolo, $ 799, il Galaxy S21. Le principali differenze tra i due sono le dimensioni dello schermo e della batteria.
  • La durata della batteria va bene nell’uso quotidiano e il Galaxy S21 Plus supporta la ricarica rapida da 25 W. Tuttavia, nella confezione non è incluso alcun caricabatterie.

Prima di farlo, controlla le migliori offerte Galaxy S21 per vedere se ci sono modi per risparmiare sul Galaxy S21 Plus.

Il prezzo del Galaxy S21 Plus è identico al iPhone 12 Pro. Puoi anche fare confronti tra il Galaxy S21 Plus e il Pixel 5 di Google da $ 699 , che nonostante abbia specifiche di livello inferiore, è ancora al di sopra del suo peso in termini di prestazioni della fotocamera raw.

Dato che Samsung ha copiato Apple e non ha incluso un mattoncino di ricarica, dovrai trovare una soluzione di ricarica. Se hai un mattone da 25 W dall’S20 o qualcosa di simile, sei a posto. Ma se stai utilizzando un vecchio caricabatterie USB-C, ti consigliamo di prendere in considerazione un caricabatterie wireless o il caricatore da muro $ 20 da 25 W di Samsung. Tuttavia, con il telefono riceverai un cavo USB-C.

Recensione del Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus: design

A prima vista, il Galaxy S21 Plus sembra abbastanza simile al Galaxy S20 Plus . Ha cornici sottili molto accattivanti con un foro singolo per la fotocamera frontale al centro del bordo superiore del display. A seconda del colore che hai scelto-il Galaxy S21 è disponibile in Phantom Black, Phantom Silver o Phantom Violet-puoi anche vedere il bordo della cornice attorno alle cornici, creando un dispositivo attraente. Lo schermo ora è piatto anziché curvo, il che potrebbe non sembrare così bello, ma porta a meno tocchi involontari.

È sul retro che Samsung ha apportato alcune modifiche rispetto all’S20 Plus dello scorso anno. Il modulo a tripla fotocamera non sporge più da solo, ma si fonde perfettamente nel telaio in quello che Samsung chiama il design a taglio di contorno. Sebbene l’S21 Plus abbia ancora una notevole gobba della fotocamera, sembra meno imbarazzante del suo predecessore.

Liscia al tatto, la parte posteriore non mostra impronte o macchie molto facilmente. Nonostante le sue dimensioni, ho notato che il Galaxy S21 Plus non mi è scivolato in mano. È un dispositivo molto avvincente che non mi sono preoccupato di far cadere o scivolare fuori dalla mia tasca.

Il Galaxy S21 Plus non è un piccolo telefono a 6,36 x 2,98 x 0,31 pollici, con un peso di 7,05 once. Ha praticamente le stesse dimensioni del Galaxy S20 Plus (6,37 x 2,90 x 0,31 pollici, 6,56 once). Con una mano sola il Galaxy S21 Plus può essere difficile, soprattutto se hai le mani più piccole. Se ti piacciono i grandi telefoni, questo ti renderà felice.

Samsung pubblicizza il nuovo e migliorato sensore di impronte digitali sotto il display, che è 1,7 volte più grande e il 50% più veloce del suo predecessore. Mentre i modelli precedenti avevano diversi gradi di precisione, il sensore dell’S21 Plus è abbastanza affidabile. È veloce e molto preciso.

Recensione Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus: display

Per Galaxy S21 e S21 Plus, Samsung ha”declassato”il display a una risoluzione di 1080p. Tuttavia, a questa risoluzione è sempre possibile abilitare la modalità adattiva a 120 Hz. Confronta questo con il Galaxy S20 Plus dell’anno scorso, dove dovevi scegliere tra QHD 60Hz e 1080p 120Hz. Ora devi solo scegliere la frequenza di aggiornamento che desideri.

Se vuoi che le cose siano il più fluide possibile, lascia il display dell’S21 Plus in modalità adattiva. Ciò consentirà alla frequenza di aggiornamento del display di spostarsi tra 48Hz e 120Hz, il che significa che il telefono può adattarsi al tuo utilizzo e risparmiare la durata della batteria ove possibile. Se vuoi ottenere il massimo dalla tua batteria, tuttavia, blocca il display a 60Hz e lascia che sia. Ti perderai differenze evidenti, ma almeno Samsung offre la scelta.

Passando alla qualità del display stesso, Samsung ha optato per uno schermo di alto livello, dopotutto. In entrambe le impostazioni Natural e Vibrant, i colori risaltano e i neri sono molto profondi. Diventa abbastanza luminoso per la luce solare diretta, mentre i media, i giochi o i video hanno un bell’aspetto su questo schermo.

Nei nostri test di laboratorio, il Galaxy S21 Plus ha gestito il 103,8% dello spazio sRGB e il 73,5% di DCI-P3 in modalità naturale. In Vivid, il telefono ha raggiunto il 212,3% di sRGB e il 150,4% di DCI-P3. L’iPhone 12 Pro, nel frattempo, riproduceva il 115,6% della gamma di colori sRGB e l’81,9% di DCI-P3. E infine, per la sua valutazione della precisione del colore Delta-E, l’S21 Plus ha ottenuto uno 0,18. Questo batte facilmente sia il Galaxy Note 20 Ultra (0,24) e iPhone 12 Pro (0,28 ), poiché i numeri più vicini allo zero sono più precisi.

Qualunque sia la modalità che ti sembra migliore, Vivid o Natural, avrai uno dei migliori display per smartphone in circolazione. I really enjoyed watching and playing things on this phone. I checked out Blade Runner 2049 from my Plex server, which has scenes later in the movie with harsh orange tones. The Galaxy S21 Plus handled these wonderfully.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus review: Cameras

The Galaxy S21 Plus uses the same camera setup as the Galaxy S20 Plus. It features 12MP wide-angle, 12MP ultrawide, and 64MP telephoto lenses. The latter camera sports a 3x hybrid optic zoom and 30x space zoom. Samsung’s trump card this year, however, comes down to software, as it finally learned from Google and that company’s Pixel 5.

I tested the default photo mode of the Galaxy S21 Plus against the iPhone 12. (I don’t have a 12 Pro for photo comparisons, but with the exception of a telephoto lens, the iPhone 12 gives the S21 Plus a pretty fair fight.) Right off the bat, you can see the Galaxy S21 Plus saturates the photo more than the iPhone 12’s image — too much so in my opinion. Apple’s device also captures the shadows better, whereas the S21 Plus bumps up the exposure and flattens a lot of the blacks.

For another outdoor shot, t the Galaxy S21 Plus managed to capture the car’s details fairly well considering that I took this shot in direct sunlight. You can see the red stripes along the Mini’s skirt and the brake rotors behind the spokes of the rims. The refracting sunlight isn’t so harsh, either. Meanwhile, the iPhone’s shot has that awful lens flare ruining the whole image. You can still make out some details, but overall I think the iPhone effort is a worse photo.

Moving indoors to my office, the Galaxy S21 Plus once again brightened everything up in this picture of the office decor, with the color on my metal poster looking a bit washed out. The iPhone 12 produced something much truer to life with more realistic colors. While still well-lit, the iPhone’s shot captures the warm tones of the wood paneling, the soft grey of the concrete Celtic cross, and just a bit of the tiny dots of color in the cross-stitch pattern.

Once again, when testing portrait mode, both phones took two different approaches. The Galaxy S21 Plus photo is more true-to-life with a soft blur radius. I’m in clear focus with accurate colors. The iPhone 12 cooled everything down significantly, possibly due to the combination of shadows with the snow in my backyard. The blur radius is similar to the S21 Plus’, but everything from my face to the smoker behind me is way too cool. Even the sky is too blue. This was consistent across portrait shots.

At night, the Galaxy S21 Plus tends toward darker photos compared to the iPhone 12. The Galaxy S21 Plus still retains a lot of detail, even if it is a bit darker. The iPhone 12 is noticeably brighter with deeper shadows and more detail in the bricks. Both are quite good, but I like the iPhone 12’s night mode performance better.

For the front-facing camera, I stepped into the shadows behind this row of townhouses. Right away, you can see how cool and smoothed the Galaxy S21 Plus’ shot is. The blue of my eyes appears despite a bit of a squint, the grey of my shirt is truer to life, and the fences behind me are the right colors. On the other hand, the iPhone’s selfie is a bit weirder. Notice how everything got warmed up, like the tint and black level correction got overtuned. My face appears much redder than usual, my beard looks darker than it is, and the wood fences seem a bit off.

Finally, Samsung stresses the zoom capabilities with its new phones. The S21 Plus offers a 3x hybrid optical zoom telephoto lens, which is already neat for far away shots. But with that comes Space Zoom, which can net you up to 30x zoom photos, letting you capture things that are ridiculously far away. For quick reference, here’s the S21 Plus’ max zoom versus the iPhone 12’s. You can easily spot the differences, and it’s no contest between the two. The S21 Plus could pick up the pink stool at the very end of the road, whereas you can barely see it in the iPhone 12’s picture.

As far as video, the Galaxy S21 Plus can go all the way up to 8K at 24 frames per second (fps). If you want something a bit more reasonable, the phone also supports 4K at 60 fps and 1080p at 120 fps. All told, you can have super smooth, high resolution videos that look awesome later when you go to watch them. If you opt for 1080p at 60 fps, you can use the Super Steady mode, which utilizes AI to help eliminate hand shake in your recording, making for an even smoother video.

If you’re really into vlogging, you can switch on Director Mode, which activates both the rear and front cameras for reco rding at the same time. Director Mode also generates live thumbnails from all of the S21 Plus’ lenses.

Some of the other features Samsung packed into the Galaxy S21 Plus’ camera include the portrait video and an updated version of Single Take. The former is just what it sounds like, where the subject of the video is kept in focus while the background remains blurred. The blurring can get a little overzealous when you move the camera around, but it’s all around pretty solid.

Single Take lets you choose from a selection of the best shots in a given scene. The S21 Plus will actually capture multiple photos at a time, so that you can pick the best one for your needs. This might be helpful if your pet or child happens to move while you attempt to photograph them.

Samsung brought to bear its best with the Galaxy S21 Plus’ cameras. It goes head-to-head with other heavyweights like Google and Apple and holds its own quite well. While I don’t have a Pixel 5 to test it against, you can check out the camera section of our Galaxy S21 review to see how these cameras compare against Google’s latest. In the end, the S21 Plus’ cameras really impressed me. Although the phone’s cameras like to oversaturate and overexpose sometimes, the photos that it produces come out nice most of the time.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus review: Performance

U.S. versions of the Galaxy S21 Plus uses Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 888 system-on-chip (SoC. (In the rest of the world, your S21 Plus is powered by the Exynos 2100.) Compared to the Snapdragon 865, the 888 promises 20% better CPU performance, 35% improvements in GPU speed, and upgrades to the AI capabilities. Samsung paired this processor with 8GB of RAM in the Galaxy S21 Plus, making for a very powerful phone.

Unlike the Galaxy S20 Plus, there’s no 12GB RAM option with the S21 Plus, but most people don’t need that much memory in the first place. Power users can always turn to the Galaxy S21 Ultra, which will better suit their needs with its 12GB and 16GB options. So the S21 Plus losing 4GB of RAM in today’s age isn’t as bad it might seem. Android has gotten better with memory management and Samsung has a few tweaks in One UI to help with that, too.

In testing, the Snapdragon 888 still falls behind Apple’s A14 Bionic SoC. For Geekbench 5, which measures single-and multicore performance, the Galaxy S21 Plus hit 1,116 in single-core and 3,300 in multicore. Compare the latter to the results of the iPhone 12 (3,859) and the iPhone 12 Pro (3,880).

For the GPU, we used the 3DMark Wild Life Unlimited test, which pushes the GPU hard to render challenging scenes in real time. The Galaxy S21 Plus managed a final score of 5,571 with an average fps of 33.37. Compare this to the iPhone 12 Pro’s 6,567 and 39 fps.

Finally, we ran the Galaxy S21 Plus through a video transcoding test, where the phone must transcode a 4K video to 1080p in the Adobe Premiere Rush app. The S21 Plus managed a time of one minute, the best we’ve seen from an Android phone. But as good as that task was, the iPhone 12 Pro did the same task in a mere 27 seconds.

Once again, the iPhone beats the leading Android devices in raw performance, but synthetic benchmarks don’t tell the whole story. In daily use, I didn’t find the Galaxy S21 Plus to be lacking in any regard. I played Call of Duty: Mobile, Pascal’s Wager, and Grid Autosport on max settings, all of which push the phone hard. The phone handled all of them brilliantly. I also tried some Xbox Game Pass and Steam Link streaming to it with no problems. The Galaxy S21 Plus also works well with the Razer Kishi gamepad, which levels up mobile gameplay considerably in the games that support it.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus review: Battery life and charging

As with display size, the Galaxy S21 Plus sits right in the middle of the S21 and S21 Ultra when it comes to battery life. The S21 Plus and its 4,800 mAh battery turned in a so-so performance in our battery tests and even threw in a little surprise for us.

(Image credit: Tom’s Guide)

Tom’s Guide’s proprietary battery test involves a phone being left to endlessly load webpages over and over using a cellular connection. We tested the S21 Plus on both adaptive and 60Hz modes on T-Mobile 5G.

In adaptive mode, the Galaxy S21 Plus reached 9 hours and 41 minutes, which is just shy of the 10-hour mark we see on average. For reference, the Galaxy S21 Ultra hit 10:07 in adaptive mode, while the Galaxy S21 managed 6:31. So 9:41, while not great, is respectable. Meanwhile, in 60Hz mode, the S21 Plus reached 9:53. Compare that to the S21 Ultra’s excellent 11:25 and the S21’s 09:53.

That result surprised us. As you can see, there’s quite a disparity between the 60Hz and adaptive modes in terms of battery life for the S21 and S21 Ultra. However, the S21 Plus has nary a noticeable difference between the two, meaning that you don’t save a lot of battery life by using the 60Hz mode on this phone.

As you’ve heard by now, none of the Galaxy S21 phones come with a charger. They do include a USB-C cable so that you can use a charging brick you already own. Or, you can buy one separately at your discretion. The phone supports up to 25 W of fast charging, and you also have the wireless charging route if you so choose.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus review: Software and One UI 3.1

Until very recently, Samsung had a lousy reputation for software. But when Samsung introduced One UI a couple of years ago, things changed. It proved that the phone maker was taking software seriously and offering a more mature skin, something more akin to Google’s stock Android.

(Image credit: Tom’s Guide)

One UI looks nice, feels slick in its animations and transitions, and does a fairly good job at staying out of the way while offering useful feature S. Samsung made something that offers elegance that doesn’t feel bloated. Sure, the S21 Plus has unnecessary apps pre-installed, but a surprising amount can be uninstalled and you can disable the rest. Overall, a lot of people will like the One UI experience.

With the Galaxy S21 series, Samsung introduced One UI 3.1, which came with several changes. A few of these include the Google Discover feed integrated into the stock launcher, Google Home device controls, Google Duo baked into the stock phone app, video call effects, and several enhancements to the camera app.

Not all is well with One UI, however. Samsung wants you to use its features out of the box, including Edge Panels and the Bixby shortcut. Considering how useless Bixby is, even when compared to Siri, I highly recommend changing what a long press of the power button does so that it no longer wakes Bixby. We have some quick Galaxy S21 tips to get you started.

I replaced the S21 Plus stock launcher with a third-party one — first Nova, then Niagara. The paginated app drawer in the One UI launcher is frustrating and I thought it a relic of the long-forgotten past. Out of the box, Samsung organizes the apps in some nebulous, contextual manner, but when you have a lot of them, things can get irritating. Luckily, you can organize the drawer alphabetically.

Samsung could address a lot of my One UI complaints by offering more choices during initial setup. It could let you choose your navigation model (nav bar or gestures) and whether you want certain features enabled or not, for example. A lot of people simply won’t spend a lot of time digging through the settings menus to find what they want.

The Galaxy S21 Plus comes with Android 11, which is great. Samsung has promised that it’ll provide three years of OS updates for its phones, meaning that the S21 Plus will probably see Android 14 in 2023. This is a huge improvement versus the Samsung of the past and I’m happy to see this. How quickly the company will release updates is another issue entirely.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus review: Verdict

All told, Samsung nailed it with the Galaxy S21 Plus. It has most of the strengths of the smaller S21 in a bigger package. If you don’t want to shell out $1,199 for the Galaxy S21 Ultra, the Plus model is the next best choice if you prefer a big phone.

Samsung might have pared back the features on the S21 and S21 Plus, but I think it works in this phone’s favor. Having the display tuned down to 1080p works just fine, especially in the adaptive refresh rate mode.

If you’re using a Galaxy S20 Plus, however, this isn’t a worthy upgrade. The software features Samsung introduced with the S21 will trickle down to your device, if they haven’t already. You still have excellent performance, an awesome display, and plenty of camera power to keep you happy.

Moreover, if you’re using a Galaxy S20 FE, then I strongly recommend against upgrading to the Galaxy S21 or S21 Plus. Samsung put out a great phone with the S20 FE and it’s honestly the best Android competitor to the S21 and S21 Plus at this point. Other than the Snapdragon 865, the S20 FE is remarkably similar to its S21 cousins (the Ultra notwithstanding).

The Galaxy S21 Plus is not a bad purchase at $999. It’s got a lot going for it. If you’re coming from an older device, like the Galaxy S10 series, this is a solid upgrade.
