S21 Ultra from the Note 10+: The Good, The Bad, The Meh
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июл 2024
- It's Galaxy S phone season and I am taking advantage of Samsung's trade in credit to move from the Note 10+ to the S21 Ultra. Moving from a Note series to an S series has it's pros and cons and I highlight the ones that stood out to me the most here. TLDW; I am definitely losing some major things moving from the Note 10+ to the S21 Ultra however nothing that's a deal breaker. I will be keeping the Ultra and taking a close look at it in the future. Let me know if you feel like the move is worth it and if Samsung sacrificed too much in the move.

Screen off memo is available on the s21 ultra- you have to press the button on the s pen when the screen is off to activate it when its hovered over the screen
Oh that's great to know. One less thing that I'm losing. Thanks for that.
Will stick with my note 10 plus, love it. will do just fine for few more years.
Definitely. Enjoy it!
When did you bought this phone..?
@@vantecity1391 almost an year old..
Clearly you haven't felt the difference that the refresh rate makes
@@Iamjustavibe got ipad pros with 120hz rate used them with my note 10 plus. refresh rate are barely noticeable i never told myself oh my note was slow. one thing makes me want to buy s21 ultra was the 5g support,bigger battery and latest chipset but i dont like the no sd card,rounded design and the narrowness of the screen. note10 plus and note 20 ultra has wider screen
Watching from Note10+
I just found your channel today. It's ridiculous that you only have 1.5k subs. The video quality and concise info alone you should have at least 25k subs. Keep up the good work.👍
Thank you so much. As long as people are enjoying that's all I really care about.
You are a treasure, finally someone who speaks about the displays aspect ratio and the difference that exists in the Note series VS the S series. I'm subscribing, great video!
I appreciate that, thank you! Yeah, I always found it interesting that people always talk about the screen sizes, but the shape of the screen is just as important.
Very Detailed information as user perspective. Thanks. And me too like the toys.
Thank you, I'm glad you appreciated the viewpoint.
This is the perfect type of video i needed when swapping from the note 10+ to s21 ultra. ty
I actually just bought the Note 10+ lol. Great price currently since the Note 20 Ultra is still pretty expensive.
Absolutely a great phone that should serve you well for years.
Same here bro!!
How much you really paying for it.
I bought my note 10+ 512 gb version new from Microsoft unlocked for 550. Love this phone. Have the z flip 3 too.
How do you like the flip?
What we want for Note 21
1. Bring back Headphone Jack
2. Bring back MST Samsung pay feature
3. bring back the depth vision camera
4. bring back the Heart rate monitor sensor
5. Bring back SD Card
Don't forget the IR blaster 🎛️😉
That's actually the entire reason I keep my S6 around. Use to to change inputs on hotel TVs
Bring back FM Radio
@@AdultsHaveToysToo 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very good Systematic review covering every basic feature one needs to know to make that decision. You are so calm and composed through the whole thing and I like that. Typing this on my S21 Ultra. It was a shame they removed the expandable storage. If the photo quality on the S21 wasn't so good I would have ditched it for another phone. But for the expandable memory the S21 is still the king. Keep up the good work and God bless.
I'll agree, and it's not so much the photo quality but the flexibility of having such a long reach with the cameras that keeps me around.
This guy is sooooooo underrated
Great video man! I am looking to upgrade to the S21U from my Note10+ mostly cuz "I wanna play with new toys", I am a geek and I need every new feature lol
I'll take underrated, lol, I feel like I'm pretty much just not rated at all. Really appreciate it. And yes, that's exactly my angle in getting the Ultra. Definitely a want, not a need, but I want.
Wow, your video is super knowledgeable and understanding. Great comparison. I’m still sticking with my n10+. It’s my second one. After selling my first one I totally regret it going to an iPhone 11PM then 12PM. I recently rebought a used n10+ aura glow for $300. A little beat up around the borders and cracked edges left and right corners. Very small and I just wrapped it with a carbon fiber skin and problem solved. Still look beautiful again. The battery I must say has taking a hit. Only able to manage about 6-6 1/2 hours of sot. My first one easily getting through with 8-9 hours with no features turned off like AOD, QUHD and etc. Still good. Put it back on the charger for an hour and I’m good to go. S21u is a great phone/beast but the camera and losing the SD card slot didn’t do it for me. I’m a huge storage user and love the capability to expand storage. Anyway I can go on and on. Reason why I wanted to comment was to give you credit for this video comparison and how well you handled every questions thrown at you with a positive response. Even though I see some we’re trying to take shots at you for the ram thing but you put them in their place. 😂. Great job buddy. I subscribed to support your work. Stay safe and be blessed. 👍🏼🙏🏼
Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful comment. Glad you're on a phone that you enjoy, because in the end what you enjoy is all that matters. I'm starting to hear rumors of a Note 22, curious to see if that pans out.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo yes, rumors only but we’ll see. Tbh I’m not going to ever buy a newer line of Samsung flagship unroll they bring back the SD card slot. I really hated that’s Samsung followed Apple and took that away from us. It’s a shame and I’m pretty sure they post a lot of customers after the n20u. Only upgrade I’ll be doing if they don’t bring back the SD card slot will be the n20u. Thanks again for your reply.
Unreal how you've only got a 500 sub count. Great video, super informative and we'll structured. As my gut feeling tells me, I'll be keeping my note 10+ rather than upgrading. Thanks for the insight
I'm super glad the video had value to you, and thank you for the amazing complement. You say only 500, but I'm super appreciative of every one of you and excited that I just hit 500.
My personal advice is to keep your note 10plus skip the s21 line up and just wait for the s22 beasts to come out which is right around the corner that will be a TRUE upgrade
I can't make the jump simply because they have removed things like the Samsung pay chip and sd cards. Maybe I will move over to the fold 3 when it comes out if it still has these options. Otherwise, I will just hold onto the note till the battery degrades in another year or 2. Good to hear they fixed the finger print, but as you said those of us with it know the tricks to get it working on the note. I am also waiting on under display font cameras that do not lose quality. I really do not like rounded screens and the edge.
All great points, though I will say that recently I've been more satisfied with Google Pay than Samsung pay. Only need to unlock once for Google Pay rather than having to unlock the app for Samsung pay
I have the 10+ 512 gb unlocked on the way from Amazon, with insurance. Decided to go this rough for the expandable memory option and price point. I am coming from Galaxy S 8 so it's a nice step up. I can then upgrade once the price comes down on the newer phones.
Awesome! Yeah it's an amazing phone, an at an unbeatable price today
i got my note 10 + few weeks ago and its amazing, 90% of the photos we take are very close 12gb ram 512gb from +256gb sdcard, no bulky outer camera. a black one is sleek and compact
Is it worth to by in 2023?
@@nadamedec1577 it is worth it you can do comparison with the latest phones at gsmarena
yes@@nadamedec1577
First time viewer. This comparison is great and informative. Also, this is a very well made video. Kudos and keep it up!
That's so much for the comment. I really appreciate it so much.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo You’re welcome. I really enjoyed it.
My jump was from the note 8 to the s21 ultra , it was worth the upgrade even with loss of memory card the phone holds more than any of my current memory cards and as much ram as my laptop
Have had (& still do) every Note since the first.
I'm also a tech geek & have to have the latest and greatest, that being said, I still love & appreciate all of the previous ones, too. Since I use more than one number, it works very well for me.
But man. You should be doing a lot of other phone reviews. Really appreciate the calm narration and articulate scripting. Perfect!
Love from India!
I really appreciate that! I wish I had the budget to.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo Would absolutely be looking forward to any other reviews you do put out, and even if there are friends' units you could review or something.
And hey, we all start somewhere! Immense appreciation for you even putting in the time from your life into this. Amazing content. :)
When you share pictures, let's say from gallery to whatsapp, or Instagram... On the note 10 plus, was there any major compression? Was the quality still good? Especially when viewing from another device
Never had an issue with that, WhatsApp pretty much just sends the original image and Instagram compresses the same as it would from any other phone.
Great video, first time viewer from the UK. I'm considering changing my Note 10 plus for the Ultra but I'm dithering. I'll miss the built in S Pen and Sd card slot, but that Ultra camera really appeals.
Well quick update from me, I haven't missed my SD card slot since I have a USB c flash drive on my keys, and I bought the Spigen S-pen case and make regular use of my S-pen on the ultra now.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo Hi, really appreciate the update. Will look into both those options. You're up and about early?
Haha, I sometimes have to keep weird hours.
How do you have only 480 subscribers?! World-class video.
Haha, thanks, I really appreciate it. Doing the best I can and trying to keep improving with each video.
How indeed???? Subbed!
Thank you so much!
People don't usually start with high subs, it takes time to build them up
How would you rate note 10 plus camera??Will that make us to switch new flagships?
It's a great camera, though blurs a little bit on moving subjects in mid to low light, which is pretty normal. No complaints on the camera quality.
Nice video! I'm happy with the Note 10+ but Verizon is currently offering $800 of trade-in value for a Note 9 that's sitting in a drawer. Very tempting to move to the S21 Ultra just because I can't see that Note 9 bringing me anywhere close to that value again.
Those trade are definitely the way to go
Ill take your Note 9 sir. thank you
It's a tough decision for me since I have the 512gb version of the Note 10+ with a 256gb microSD card, and the 512gb version of the S21 Ultra is so much more expensive in comparison. The trade-in value for the Note 10+ is only $330, and mine is still in mint condition so it wouldn't be a good trade for me. The S21 Ultra just seems significantly broader and heavier, and I use the S-Pen a lot, so how has the transition been; in terms of having a seemingly bigger case to carry a pen outside the actual phone, for you? I mean, the Note 10+ is big enough already, so how much more uncomfortable is the S21 Ultra when getting it in and out of your pocket since it has unusual S-Pen case? Is it fast enough in real life to upgrade right now, or should one wait for the next flagship at this point.
The official spen case isn't great. The silicone is too sticky. The Spigen S-pen case has actually been pretty great. I don't even think about it anymore. But I will say it feels like a small phone when I take it out of the case. Without the enhanced trade in credit I would find it hard to recommend though unless the cameras are important to you. I've gotten used to having a long telephoto lens on my phone and not sure if I can go back to only having a 2x or 3x telephoto lens.
My dilemma. Now it's possible to have WhatsApp on 2 phones, I'm currently switching back & forth between my iPhone 13 Pro Max and my previous 'old' phone - the Note 10+ 5G. As far as user experience goes, the now almost-4yr old Note is right up there and holding it's own. Whats making me think about getting an S21 Ultra instead of it though (don't want to spend the extra on the S22/23 U's) is for the 10x Zoom as we're off on a cruise soon that will really benefit from having that extra optical (rather than digital) zoom. Hmmmm 🤔
What camera/lens and audio equipment are you using?
On here the Fujifilm X-T4 with the XF 16-80mm f4 zoom and the Zoom f2 with the included lav for audio. Everything edited in Adobe Premiere and Adobe Audition.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo awesome, thanks!
@@AdultsHaveToysToo I have the A6500 and a G85 and a handful of lenses. I'm guessing your environment is much quieter than mine as I have servers and networking gear running in my rack in the same room where I usually record. I've been trying to figure out how to get better sound. Tried lavs, post processing with gates and stuff, etc. 🤔 Only thing I didn't do yet is frame out the server rack and pipe out the heat directly outside with a dryer vent and ventilation fan. It should help contain the noise a bit but time will tell. Anyways keep up the good videos, I genuinely like all the content I binge watched last night.
Both of those are awesome cameras, cool stuff. Yeah, I don't have all that going, but I've had good luck getting rid of AC noise using Audition's noise reduction process. Just need to make sure you have enough of an ambient noise clip to get a sample from. That at cover up a bit of it with background music, lol.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo I haven't tried in audition, just audacity but I have a adobe subscription so I'll give it a shot, thanks!👍
When are you making a camera compare video?
Been backed up with work, going to try to start filming this week, hopefully have it together by next week. Keep an eye out for it.
please can you tell me how you make this clock style on always display in note 10 in 3:41
It was just one of the options under the AOD settings.
there is no option like in your
Watching the first few seconds I was thinking "is he going to say that they're essentially the same? Like he's trying to remember which one is which" And then the Plus Ultra punchline came in and I exploded in laughter 🤣I can't believe I haven't noticed that
Haha, I'm glad you appreciated it.
Note 10 plus comes with an AKG USB c headset with a fast charger. This is missing in S21 ultra and you did not mention this point in your video.
This is true. I was limiting my view to the phones themselves, but that could be a factor if you don't have those items already. I haven't used either during my entire time with the Note 10+, opting for chargers I already had and my Buds+. Thanks for adding that comment here!
Great review, it has actually made me subscribe
Thank you so much, I'm really happy you enjoyed it.
I might end up getting one since Samsung announced 4 years of updates. Just waiting to see if Samsung drops prices again or not plus $300 of credit for other Samsung gear. 👍
Knowing their history the best samsung credit deals come on preorder, but they regularly have significant sales, I've already seen $200 off of the ultra.
Note 10 plus is still a beast of a phone. I love mine and wont be upgrading for awhile.
Such a great phone. Glad it's still working great for you.
1. Will note 10+ give excellent service till 2025 if i buy next month? i am not a heavy user. I use phone a lot but i only use Facebook messenger and RUclips randomly. Dont even take too much photo. And i never play game. 2. So will it be wise to take it now? 3. will it provide good speed? Looking forward to your reply.
1) It should work fine for that time, with two important things to consider, if 5G starts to get priority over LTE you might get slower data speeds, and Samsung provides 4 years of security updates, so the Note 10+ will only get security updates for another 2 years if that's important to you.
2) The Note 10+ is a great deal right now with the speed and features you get for the price.
3) The Note 10+ is still very fast, feels just like a modern phone.
Hope that helps.
Thank you so much for your reply and suggestion. Take care.
Really honest review i liked it 👍🏻
Happy you liked it!
one thing I hate about the N10+ is the curved display on the sides just wasting valuable space, so looks like this is solved on the s21+
Yes, the 21+ finally goes back to a flat screen. The ultra still has the curve, but much much more subtle, enough that I wouldn't call it a downside at all.
I was gonna hold onto my note 10 plus a few more years, but it was having charging issues so I'm upgrading a little early to the S21 ultra.
Cool! Enjoy that telephoto!
Contact Samsung. That is an issue with the wireless charging coil. They just replaced my. Causing low temperature message and phone would not charge
Thank You!
Of course!
Hi again from the UK "UPDATE " Well I stopped dithering, I went ahead and bought a 256gb S21 Ultra. I stick by all my previous comments about missing the in built-in S Pen SD card etc. One extra gripe though, The Ultras' weight, it feels so much heavier than the Note 10+? However, that Camera....😁
Thanks again for your assistance, not bought an S Pen yet, but picked up a 500gb Samsung T7 SSD, works a treat. 👍
Haha yeah you're right. It does feel significantly denser. But yes, this is the first phone I've had where I feel like the cameras justify it's existence. I've been eyeing the Fold series, but now that I have this I don't feel like I can give it up.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo Go to bed! 🤣 those Folds look to fragile and bulky for me.
Haha, yes, I need to. Looking forward an Ultra foldable that's also not $3k
@@AdultsHaveToysToo Note 22 Ultra
Thanks for this bro. Came here after Samsung announced that Note21 isn’t gonna be released :(
Yeah, not confirmed but they said they may not release one because of the semiconductor shortage. So at least the reason isn't because they don't want to do a Note. We'll see though, the Fold seems like the future for Samsung though.
Same, thinking about upgrading my Note10+ to S21U to fill the gap until the N22U. We don't have those great trade-in deals here however :(
We are only really into the second generation of real foldable phones right now, usually the first 3 or 4 generations of stuff has the big leaps and bounds of improvement, then the refinement happens after that. I remember when camera phones were pretty much just a toy, but they advanced quickly, and now they are mostly just refinements. I think there's a future in the next 3 years or so.
The only reason I upgraded from my note 10+ was that I dropped it and destroyed the screen digitizer! having used the s21 ultra now for a month I miss the note 10 so much that I am getting its screen replaced it just feels better lighter and has better selfie front camera sd card and s pen that works as a shutter button ..the s21 ultra might be the better newer phone but not really an upgrade unless you do tons of photography ..if you have a note 10 + there is no reason at all to upgrade. Great Comparison!
Thank you. For me it would be hard to go back just because of the high refresh rate and those telephoto lenses, but those are the only reasons. Most of the Note 10+ is the better phone.
I've got the Note 10+ and am making this exact consideration. Thanks for making this video
You really can't go wrong either way, but there's definitely a give and take.
I don't give a hoot about that stuff man ! we want to know how it does with dji drone apps ! specifically go4 ! is it better than ipad 5 mini?
I've been using DJI Fly with my Air2s and it's been working great. Even fits in the remote with the S-pen case on. Can't speak on Go4 or using an iPad though.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo those are the real life things that really matter . real life apps that are not in a virtual world ya know!
Of course, but there are so many apps and so many use cases. Drone fliers are still a small niche, but I'm enjoying learning about it.
Had the Note 10 Plus for 2 Years guys.. never broke, no scratch (without screen protector..), its a bloody POWER House. Had no decrease in power or performance whatsoever.
If you have the Note 10 plus? Keep that monster in your pocket.. its not worth the upgrade just because.. also I am so in Love with the wider screen of the Note.
Only reason I am thinking of switching is because of my mum whom I would give my phone.
Glad I'm not the only one who gifts tech to their family. Generally the stuff I'm replacing is a significant upgrade to most of my family.
I like not only my my note 10 plus screen but also the body. It's mirror finish on back I'm still lovin' it 😊😉🤟
Yes, that back was something special
This is a great video yet it still doesn't fully help me to make that jump 😭 I've ordered the Note 20 Ultra but going to cancel it is I think I'm wanting the S21 Ultra 512gb with the latest cameras and big battery etc??
The Note 20 Ultra still looks like a great phone. Get what you want that fits your budget.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo I still like the Note 10 but I know it is probably lacking now compared to the latest flagships. I was debating keeping it and going on a sim only plan and waiting until the new note next year or S22 but I don't think I can 🤦♂️ the budget isn't the problem with the S21 Ultra and the Note 20 Ultra is the S pen and SD card but like I say, the 512g S21 Ultra should keep me going and then I could get the S pen if needed? The 5000 mah battery and better cameras seem to be outweighing the Note 20...
@@whothefcukrmutd2008 only matters if it's lacking to you. Battery isn't world changing, just will last all day. The biggest change is the cameras, night and day there if you want zoom. For regular distances the difference isn't worth the price. But being able to reach out with the 10x lens is amazing.
It's May 2021, and I've had the Note 10+ for around 18 months and the 'Wow' factor is still there even now.
It will be at least a year before I even consider upgrading.
I'm skip My Bathroom Only For Ur Video🖤
It's trending On Pluto🖤
Trending where?
Great Video Man
Haven't Enjoyed a Review like This in a Long Time
Thanks, really happy you like it.
N 10+ is a straight beast. I recently traded it in on a Z Fold 3 for the 1000 trade in offer. But I have to admit, I miss it quite a bit. Great Phone. That screen is something else.
I considered the fold, but it's too hard to give up the 21U camera
@@AdultsHaveToysToo I tried the 21U as well, and it's awesome. Figured I'd give this a try for this go-around.
Thanks, I'll continue with my note 10 plus,
Sounds good. Definitely a great phone in 2021
Don't know how did they make Note 10+..I'm unable to get rid of it. Awesome phone. Best looking, sleek and amazing performance (I kept the animations on 0.5x). Even in 2023 I don't think it will look outdated.
We really are beyond the point of new phones giving fundamental new experiences, it's all a measure of degrees. I think that until machine learning really takes a stronghold phones should be able to remain relevant for longer than they did.
The only problem i have with 21 ultra no embedded spen
True, though I've been using the Spigen S-pen case and been liking it a lot more than the Samsung S-pen case.
Actually, I barely comment. But I have to say, this channel is pretty cool.
Thank you for the comment! I really do appreciate it
9:58 ouch, looks like you placed a cheap carpet on the S21.There are better options out there that will protect your investment. Thx for the comparison. You can buy a FUJI X T3 with a XF 16 to 80mm OIS lens for the price of the S21 ULTRA!
Lol, cheap is right. That was the temporary case until my S-Pen case came in. Actually already replaced that with the Spigen S-Pen case.
Great review 👏. I have the note10+ my wife has the s21 ultra, my daughter has the note20 ultra. I wouldn't trade my note10+ for either phone. Especially with the software updates. Right now it has the 3.0 soon it will get the 3.1. With the 3.0 my fingerprint scanner got bigger and faster, I can close my eyes and hit the scanner 98% of the time. My s 🖊 as you know I can take a group photo with me in it just use the s pen to trigger it remotely. As for the screen between all 3 phones can't see the difference. The only time I'll upgrade is when the note22 ultra comes out next year.
Very cool, I traded in my Note 10+ before the update came out. I'm sure it will easily last you until then.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo o yes it runs like a beast, even better then when I pull it out of the box.
Am your new subscriber I would follow up with you from this day Inshallah salute you
Pls I'm in a dilemma is note 10+ a good phone to use in 2022
Still a great phone, especially if you get a good deal.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo thank you so much for clearing up my doubt
I love the "Financially you shouldn't" lol Basically unless your a Techie who needs the latest and greatest or just have excess cash to throw away stick with the Note 10+. 256G with expandable storage on top of Samsung guaranteeing 3 years of updates. Phone should be just fine for another 2-4 years
Yup, that's exactly my take. The pain of being a chronic early adopter
I picked up a 512GB Note 10 + for cheap. Has lots of stuff I like though also a few things I don't compared to my iPhone. And I'm tossing up whether to go back to a mini phone or keep a large one for photo editing and other media consumption.
As a Note 10+ user this S21U is stunning! (10x & 120hz) Howerver those "toys" are supposed to replace our PC's and laptops (kinda), so paying 1300 usd for not being able to put all favorite 4K Tv shows, 4k Movies, 4k family/friends videos and crazy gamings, plus through DEX !...no storage no fun (IMO) cloud has its limits 😄
True if you've gone down that road. I'm still working with a separate laptop and desktop, which is my media server. 512GB is the amount you get in a lot of modern laptops today though.
If you have that much data, you're probably going to be needing an external drive anyway. Can always attach a usb c drive
I used my Note3 for 7 years and upgraded to Note 10 plus in 2020. Will consider next upgrade in 2027. Not falling for Samsung tricks.
Awesome. Definitely great if you can go that long between phones
I just picked up a cheap Note 10 Ultra. Cameras are ok I guess. I think I still prefer the iPhone camera abilities in many areas. The s21 Plus would be nice for cameras.
I haven't used a Samsung for a while, so it will be interesting to see if I like them or not.
Apple does have a particular look to their post processing. Some people prefer it some not. What in particular do you like better from the iPhone? I'll say the S21 Ultra has some really nice cameras, but they definitely have a "Samsung" look to them.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo Samsung tends to be slightly more oversaturated than I prefer in a way that isn't as pleasing as Apples. Perhaps it is also the extra noise reduction?
Also, in Lightroom the iPhone camera has a couple more options like exposure time 1s compared to 0.1s in Note 10, also HDR mode on iPhone which brings very nice results, more natural than stock iPhone for sunsets. Not present on Note 10. Main cam only on Note 10.
There is the "Pro" mode on Samsung stock cam which is nice, can get RAW photos on ultra wide, but not telephoto.
Exposure time up to 30s but has hot pixels when I used that.
I'll have to take them out for a camera comparison, iPhone only has single cam so there is the flexibility aspect to the note 10. Also certain things not as smooth or responsive as on iPhone - having to tap things twice, or less easy to swipe away apps because it spreads them out more and has to have them lock into position whereas iPhone only moves them as much as you move you finger. Also have to download a seperate app to dim screen lower than min brightness. Seems to be more little tricks in iOS for things like that. Control centre seems nicer than double pull down or having thin little bar to change brightness.
There are a lot of pluses (yes) to the note 10 plus. No ad youtube, copy to and from PC is easier. Screen is arguably better though there is that curved edge and PWM OLED. Speakers smoother mid and treble, less bass than on the iPhone.
I'm not sure what RAW options are available on s21u. Hopefully all cams.
@@RennieAsh You definitely know what you're looking for. Unfortunately pro photo and pro video only work with the main and ultrawide lenses. Annoying because you can only shoot 24fps in pro video mode. Definitely a give and take. One thing that I'll find hard to give up on the S21u is the 10x telephoto lens. Having that level of reach on me at all times is pretty amazing, even if there are some trade offs to do that. The 108MP mode is interesting too, let's you play around more with cropping, but really only for well lit situations. Been years since I really used an iPhone, the last I've personally owned was a 3g, but I've played around with others.
My note 10+ still performs great since the first day that I bought it. Though s21 ultra has great cams, I still love this.😉
Samsung had a gem on their hands when they made this.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo yup and I am patiently waiting for next year's note.😃
I prefer note 10 plus!is the best ever smartphone
Samsung did a great job with it
Keeping my sexy Note 10+ 🤟 It's Rocking just as well as the day it was released!!
Awesome, rock on man.
Owned both, stick to the 10+ for its screen size. 21u is too narrow....
The Note aspect ratio is great. I actually miss the Nexus 4 aspect ratio.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo Cool. Never used a 5:3 aspect ratio screen before.
I have both of them and i can't live with out them , smart devices and best choice
Would be nice to have the best of both in one device though.
And I just switched to S21 Ultra from Note10 plus.
And you got a great phone. I don't have any regrets, go out and get some amazing photos.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo but the weight is heavier than the Note10 plus which is quite tired when you hold it long time.
I use Gestures On my Note20 Ultras all the Time. Sure miss them when I Use My S21 Ultra
I may check out the spen plus when that comes out.
I had a huge jump from the s7 edge to the s21
That is a massive jump. Happy your S7 lasted so long.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo yess I just got my s21 last week and I'm so happy
I love my note 10 plus
I think I'll wait for the Note 21 Ultra
If there is one. Been hearing rumor that they may not do one because of the semiconductor shortage. Sounds like they want the Fold series to take the place of the Note series.
Note 8 baby
U had my like @ plus ultra.
Bought note 10+ few months ago best decision ever
I have note 10 plus it's very good
They did do a pretty great job
Note 10+ FTW 💪
Once a Note user, always a Note user.
That must be why I have a case with an spen attached to my S21 Ultra
I just got my renewed note 10+ for $355🤗🤗🤗 half the price of the note 20 ultra!!!
That's awesome!
As an non professional photographer, ordinary guy who just took family photos & videos for Instagram, facebook, Whatsapps etc...watch Netflix or youtube after work at night, Note 10+ is just good enough for me..besides it has the best designed phone Samsung ever built(without that camera bump in Note 20 Ultra).
For the most part I agree, but being able to reach out beyond the 2x of the Note10+ is really a game changer. As far as design, I do have to say that the Galaxy S6 was a pretty exceptional phone to hold too. Which by the way is part of my camera comparison coming out soon.
@@AdultsHaveToysToo Ya..True. camera wise it's the best phone ever but for me I don't really need too much of that advanced technology in a camera & Note 10+ camera took quite a good photos & in my country it's only cost USD600 today. For people who haven't have both of these phones & are planning to buy one over the other, the price should be very much a consideration.
Absolutely. Glad you got the phone that fits you best.
I just did the same move
Cool, what do you think so far?
@@AdultsHaveToysToo I like it pretty good. Fits better in my pocket then the note 10+ 😂 screen looks amazing and I'm loving the 120 hz refresh rate.
Sweet, enjoy it and it's pretty awesome cameras!
Note 10 plus ➕👌
Сравнивать на 2поколения вперёд безсмысленно
большинство людей ждут обновления через 2 поколения. Note 10+ на удивление хорош после двух поколений, так что я думаю, что в этом есть ценность.

note 12gigs ram s21 has 8 bud
For the plain S21. The S21 ultra has 12GB of RAM except the 521GB version which has 16GB, which is honestly overkill,
Plus ultra!
S21 ultra great phone.
Note 10 plus 5g the Best phone ever..
That's right, I forgot they did a 5G version.
120hz refresh rate is SLOW😢😢, many phones have 144hz & 165hz refresh rate. Again, ur 120 refresh is very slow in comparison of what's really outhere today. Don't let samsung fool ya😂😂😂
Note 10:
1. I like the more boxy design, makes it stand out
2. Complete retail package
S21U:
1. Faster of everything, Note 10 is fast, but s21u simply smooth and flawless
My final say: Note 10
Yeah the Note 10 continues to hold up well today. Now I'm finding it hard to give up the telephoto reach of the cameras on the S21 ultra though.
