I feel like you're starting to get *really* good at producing these types of reviews - this one had really good pacing, excellent mix of video samples, commentary, and slice of life moments! Don't tell Mr. Mobile but I clicked on this one first because I knew it would kind of scratch that itch for both tech and travel.
Samsung before 2021: "Here's a black phone" People: "meh, boring, just a standard color" Samsung in 2021: "Here's a black phone that we named Phantom Black to make it sound cooler" People: "Boss color, sleek, stylish, very classy, best one yet!"
i love my iphone 12 and i don’t think i’ll switch anytime soon at all cause i love the way the apple ecosystem is and works but just wow the s21 ultra looks sooo goood and performs like a boss as it should unlike the past ultras but just wow i haven’t liked a samsung phone since the s10 line up and the s21 ultra just takes the spot for my favorite samsung phone, i used to have every samsung up until the s7 and they performed so well. i would definitely but this phone if i wasn’t with apple, it also beats the iphone 12 max in a good amount of stuff by a bit not a lot but by a bit and i’m not even mad, good job to samsung
I much appreciate the manner you chose to develop this video. It was very informative and I was jamming to this jazz tune. You sir have earned a sub! Keep up the good work, brother.
Bought the 12 Pro Max based on you and your buddies reviews - big fan of the format and the music too! NYC seems terrifying, all the people all the time (at least to an introvert) but you guys make it look like a cool place to be.
This type of review is the most interesting approach I’ve seen so far. I like it a lot. I like to suggest you also including more places and widely presenting places within the city. It is combining very well with the camera review and battery lasting information :)
Fantastic job on the video :-) I am due for an upgrade and I'm actually going to be purchasing the s21 ultra 512 gig. This review has definitely been helpful in solidifying my decision about what to get. Keep up the good work take it easy
It's crazy, I work down the block from that old postal building but haven't been in the office since March and this video was the first time I saw the updated building! Last I saw it was all under construction
Thank you so much for your work, it's such a joy to watch your videos for some reason even if I'm not interested in the brand. Could please make a video for the vanilla s21? Thank you 😊
So everyone released their reviews straight after the embargo as usual, but yours was the one I jumped to! Loved Jaime's $550 ear warmers! Those cameras look amazing, I still love my 12 pro max though. Fantastic content as always David, well done!
Most interesting review I've seen so far. Thank you 🙏. Video quality is the only thing where the iPhone is still miles ahead. But the s21 ultra's video recording is definitely more than enough.
New to the channel love the stuff mate, your surface laptop 4 review brought me here Love the little history stuff you do in your videos. Also love seeing a humanistic side to a review
It seems to be a great phone. The rumors had me hyped enough to think about buying a S21 Ultra, I was even starting to accept the idea of getting a phone with a stupid camera cutout obstruction on the display. However the lack of expandable storage and the lack of a version with more than 512GB of internal storage ruined it for me.
Loving this review format, and as much as I like to live vicariously through your adventures, I’m very glad to see all of you taking the precautions you do and being careful.
What's your thoughts? I've upgraded from the s10+ to the s21Ultra but I'm tempted to return it for the smaller s21. Thoughts are it's just too big and heavy for every day use. Comparing it to my s10+ the you tube video screen size isn't much different unless you zoom in but then content is cropped and lost. And comparing it my wife's s20fe, I can't really notice her screen resolution drop to fhd+ . The s21u camera also doesn't seem much different than the s21 until you go past 10x zoom or macro. S21u is clearer up to 30x and 100x is a bit of a gimmick. Hence I'm not sure the s21u is worth the premium for basically better screen resolution and 10x camera? When in real world testing I'll hardly use these. How is the actual screen on the s21 compared to s21u? My s10+ looks near identical to the s21u and is brighter than my wife's s20fe. If the s21 and s21u screens are comparable I think the s21u might be going back and ill save a few pennies. Interested on anyone's thoughts?
Hi, did you make the switch? I'm going to buy an s21+, is it worth getting the ultra? Because I really believe that the difference in video recording changes little, as I don't use the extra zoom. And the front camera is very different? Thanks.
@Diego Idalino Ribeiro yes, returned my s21U and bought an s21. No regrets. Much cheaper and easier to carry about. I've not noticed the drop in screen resolution. There's probably 3-4 times I would have used the zoom beyond x10. Personally the ultra just wasn't worth the extra cost to me
Is this weird.. That I'm watching this real world test in the real world.. While using my phone in the real world off the very phone you're using in the real world? Woah😮🤯
Thanks David - one of the best yet! Good to see the Crew together; good to explore NYC, from this side of the pond - more please - AND there was a phone in there somewhere too, wasn't there? That was of less interest for me this year cos my S20Ultra is being px'd for an S21, to compare directly to my Nord & Xperia 5ii, and a Note20Ultra to round off the set - sorry Michael, don't need a fold yet 😉
Another great video. I love and appreciate how in all of your real-world videos you compare the stills to others devices. This is appreciated for someone who is debating which phone to purchase.
I am so amazed with your camera. I tried looking for the tech you use for blogging but didn't find it, perhaps I didn't look into much. But I hope you share the camera and lens you use. Thanks ahead 😊
Just to clarify, all lenses are NOT optical zoom. Digital zoom only. If you change from 1x to 3x or 10x you just switch lenses, like in DSLR, but faster. There is no actual zoom. Thanks for realistic utilization review.
7:06 shows perfectly the limits of minuscule sensors and what smartphones are good about - only the main sensors that are now physically larger than 2.6" compact cameras are something to get excited about, and that smaller than 1.3" periscope/wide lens, just a mushy meh, S20 ultra does only a tiny bit worse than 10x on P40 Pro+ / S21 Ultra which shows how much more relevant pure resolution and AI computing are
Good review as usual. I liked the fact that you included the Note 20 ultra in the comparison unlike other reviewers. The S21 ultra looks like an improvement in the camera department but looking at the night mode shots of the note 20 ultra I dont think a note 20 ultra owner should upgrade to the s21 ultra since the improvements are marginal from what I see. If some 1 is planning to buy a new samsung or android flagship today then the S21 ultra makes sense. Great job👍
Key features this phone needs an over the air update in is.... Portrait mode. (they need to make it at 1x and not crop in on the main sensor-loses too much detail). Low light autofocus is there, albeit kinda slow. Aaaaannnddd it's processing on the ultra wide can result in some weird shaky looking background details. They also need to fix hdr mode on video(not as good as 12 pro Max's dynamic range wise) other than that in psyched for mine to come in the mail in one week or so

You make such amazing videos , love it ❤️
I love these vlog style videos. Music choice is excellent!
good
Would be good to hear your opinions on camera and other features as well as seeing the day in the life stuff
You always meet the fisher man
I don't need a DSLR camera, s21 Ultra be ready :)
Most of the flagship phones are good enough..
Portraits can be better. Not the idea ones
No you still need a dslr for depth of field bokeh etc
Only thing idk how it’s on social media Instagram quality
But no micro sd card support
S21 ultra shown huge improvement in camera,video and software for me,the design looks very nice too,i like the black one
Potrait is not up to the mark yet.
@@rudmilashehrin7179 you sure? Have you seen Unbox Therapy blind test?
@@farishakim6759 i did. Iphone has better potrait. Once the s21 uses 3x it will be the best
And the low light iphone still better with less noise when it comes to video
I feel like you're starting to get *really* good at producing these types of reviews - this one had really good pacing, excellent mix of video samples, commentary, and slice of life moments!

Me checking out Note 20 Ultra images and realizing how good that camera is 👏🏽🔥
damn that zoom quality is crazy!
Just bought the s21 ultra. 2021 is off to a good start😁
The level in the detail when u zoom at your friend's eye and you can even see a red vein in his upper eyelid!! I'm living 😍😍😍
i also noticed that
Wow the image and video quality are on point! My iPhone 12 Pro Max looks way more over saturated compared to the Galaxy S21 Ultra. Good job Samsung.
Bro i have something to ask
In the Video category the pro max wins.
@@StebanHern true
.
The last galaxy I bought was the s4 guess I’m gonna have to get this one
Going from s4 to s21 ultra , you better be ready for the huge size deference and how heavy it's going to be
I will be going from s6 edge to s21 ultra.
well im from s7 to s21 ..
Typing this from my S7 Edge. Just put my order in!
Still have my S4. My 2nd favorite and my actual favorite is the S10
Looking, fresh bro! After coffee, we need to do a video together been a while.
Thank you brother! And ya I'm down once things chill out (hopefully soon! 🙏)
Samsung s21 ultra 4kHDR 12bit vedeo faillg all
Big fan booredatwork 👌👌👌👌
Ohh..this combo will sure be amazing to watch... So who's showing up, colonel or Thunder E
Nice review of S21 Ultra. Pretty impressed with the camera and the battery.
Thank you! And me too
@@TheUnlockr great minds think alike. I reckon you are an Android guy right? Coz I am :)
Your videos are literally my dream, Tech and travel both at the same time. Real world scenarios. Love it.
Thank you so much for watching them!
Thank You for using the Phone to Vlog! More people should take note of this when Reviewing this phone
You’re not only getting phone reviews but also an insight of NYC... that y your channel is my no 1 go to... Keep up the great job... 🙌🏻
Love it when Michael Fisher says “Jesus Christ” when he sees you lol
Samsung before 2021: "Here's a black phone"
People: "meh, boring, just a standard color"
Samsung in 2021: "Here's a black phone that we named Phantom Black to make it sound cooler"
People: "Boss color, sleek, stylish, very classy, best one yet!"
Black is always perfect.
It is actually better looking tho
Who dare says that to Black? Lol!
i love my iphone 12 and i don’t think i’ll switch anytime soon at all cause i love the way the apple ecosystem is and works but just wow the s21 ultra looks sooo goood and performs like a boss as it should unlike the past ultras but just wow i haven’t liked a samsung phone since the s10 line up and the s21 ultra just takes the spot for my favorite samsung phone, i used to have every samsung up until the s7 and they performed so well. i would definitely but this phone if i wasn’t with apple, it also beats the iphone 12 max in a good amount of stuff by a bit not a lot but by a bit and i’m not even mad, good job to samsung
I've been waiting for this one, it's upgrade time ....
Out of all the videos out there on Samsung s21 Ultra yours is always unique specially with Michael Fisher & friends.
I like that you ran into your fellow reviewers. Seems like a good time!
For past 1 year I haven't missed a single video of yours
Loved the video! Thanks, David!
Thank you for watching!
wow all the big reviews coming at one time - is like am in a candy shop :)
Lol I felt the same way
I much appreciate the manner you chose to develop this video. It was very informative and I was jamming to this jazz tune. You sir have earned a sub! Keep up the good work, brother.
Great to see some real world examples in the real world! Was getting a bit sick of seeing people's lounge rooms at 10x zoom!
What is the cool music at the beginning, like a lazy jazz, love it
This could the one. Love the matte black!!! Awesome real world test as always. Thanks!
Jaime, David, and Michael 😎✌ all star lineup
i like the front video quality of this better than anything else!
We need that kind of black on this year's foldable lineup
I just love your way of reviews! Especially that tour moment. Just keep the nice work!
Bought the 12 Pro Max based on you and your buddies reviews - big fan of the format and the music too! NYC seems terrifying, all the people all the time (at least to an introvert) but you guys make it look like a cool place to be.
Would love to see that matte black on the upcoming z flip and fold phones
This type of review is the most interesting approach I’ve seen so far. I like it a lot. I like to suggest you also including more places and widely presenting places within the city. It is combining very well with the camera review and battery lasting information :)
Fantastic job on the video :-) I am due for an upgrade and I'm actually going to be purchasing the s21 ultra 512 gig. This review has definitely been helpful in solidifying my decision about what to get. Keep up the good work take it easy
Best looking Samsung in ages.
Excellent real world test...one of the best I have seen...I am still gushing about this phone!!
Dynamic range of S21 especially at the night is mind blowing
As always, this is a great video! Loved the crisp quality and the perfectly timed music. Great job man 👏🏼
2002: “I have a camera on my phone!”
2021: “I have a phone on my camera!”
OMG, S21 ultra is superrrrrrrrrrrrr
Really like you vlogging and talking about phones or tech at the same time
You are my new favorite youtuber man, awesome stuff you create.
It's crazy, I work down the block from that old postal building but haven't been in the office since March and this video was the first time I saw the updated building! Last I saw it was all under construction
Thank you so much for your work, it's such a joy to watch your videos for some reason even if I'm not interested in the brand. Could please make a video for the vanilla s21? Thank you 😊
Aw I really appreciate that! And yup! Filming that as we speak :)
Multiple S21 Ultra videos today. I saved the best until last. Great review as always.
So everyone released their reviews straight after the embargo as usual, but yours was the one I jumped to! Loved Jaime's $550 ear warmers! Those cameras look amazing, I still love my 12 pro max though.
Fantastic content as always David, well done!
How do you find the audio? Would you recommend an additional microphone for vlogging?
Most interesting review I've seen so far. Thank you 🙏. Video quality is the only thing where the iPhone is still miles ahead. But the s21 ultra's video recording is definitely more than enough.

The note line up, the galaxy s series and the fold. Gonna be some awesome phones this year!!!!
The cameras on the S21 ultra are incredible!
Great review, preordered for next weekend with free buds, a Samsung tile and £580 for my Z Flip! I'm happy!
9:50 Zimzalabim by Red Velvet was the song playing
9:20 blackpink forever young playing in the background 🤣
Good catch!
10:00 Red velvet lol
Absolutely love these style vlogs. Never miss one. Even if I don't like the phone. Says alot about your content. Keep up the amazing job. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Loving this review format, and as much as I like to live vicariously through your adventures, I’m very glad to see all of you taking the precautions you do and being careful.
Can't wait to get mine the 29th!! 👌🏼 Awesome video!
The best words to hear on the weekend...
"Another day, another real world test..."

Is this weird.. That I'm watching this real world test in the real world.. While using my phone in the real world off the very phone you're using in the real world? Woah😮🤯
Galaxy S21 Ultra will be my next flagship 🥰. Congratulations Samsung 👏👏👏👏
Always a enjoyable and informative vid. Keep doing ya thing!
Love your real world test!!! Awesome!!!

Best reviews out there! Greetings from Germany
7:43 Not a new feature. The Note 8 had it on android oreo, which samsung removed it in android 9.
Edit: mixed up my phones.
Your videos are the best!
Whatching a 4K video test on my 720p TV... Yes...
I am so amazed with your camera. I tried looking for the tech you use for blogging but didn't find it, perhaps I didn't look into much. But I hope you share the camera and lens you use. Thanks ahead 😊
Absolutely love this format.
Excellent review. Cheers!
bro which phone is best for camera
1 SM S21 ultra
2 SM Note 20 ultra
3 Google Pixel 6 pro
I keep seeing these reviews with this insanely crisp 10X... got me to order one.
👍🏻 David. Great job!
love your vlogs reviews. hugs from Brazil
I still can't decide if this is worth the upgrade or not.
Just to clarify, all lenses are NOT optical zoom. Digital zoom only. If you change from 1x to 3x or 10x you just switch lenses, like in DSLR, but faster. There is no actual zoom. Thanks for realistic utilization review.

What Camera and lens when not using then ultra in this video?
The 4k 60 fps is not good for me. I don't know why but it's little bit blurry. Maybe only my phone?
hey that was a really cool video format experience.... i love new york so it was like travelling there again
subscribed
Excellent video
2:52 note20 ultra zooming in closer than others?
Great work love real world test
PENN STATION 4:15.... GOOD LOOKING OUT THATS LOVE MY BROTHER
Just a question - did you turn the data on or off on the phone when you were using it ?

Is there any reason why u dont use the 4k60fps to shoot the video? Just wandering. Thanks for doing this video. Love the format.
Really nice camera review! 😍
But please write down in the description which version was used for this test (Exynos or Snapdragon)!
Great vid great scenes thx
I blame you for making me buy this phone lmao. Love your content. My fave RUclips. Thank you for the effort you put in
Great video as always 🔥
