      Same, love it. Stopped using a case as well. Couple of scratches, but unlike my s9+ it handles my clumsiness better. My computer broke and I didn't lose a beat at work using dex. Dex needs work, but works for me.

    I had an s21 fe for a couple years. it was always a great phone. It held up to the new phones. It never felt out dated. Still has a similar design like the current 2024 phones. I ended up giving the phone to my mother and shes had it for over a year. It still works perfect with no issues. Id recommend getting the s21 fe to save money. But i upgraded to the s24+ and its well worth the money.

    Had my S21FE since about 2-3 months after it was released. Love it!! Paid $570 including tax for 256gb. Planning to buy the new S23FE when it's released but wondering if i really need to? Love my S21FE still. Use it for everything. I set refresh to 60hz to save battery and it's fine.

      Don't. S23FE is just beefed up A54 in A54 body. So, thicker bezzels and less appealing design. It has higher performance and somewhat better cameras, but will you notice? It's up to you

    If you are on a budget, I highly recommend S21 FE. Currently in my country, this retails at USD $444 at Samsung official stores. Display is really great and battery may last up to the whole day. The plastic back is subjective depending on the person's preference - aesthetics vs durability. Since it is plastic, it may look cheap but it won't break when dropped unlike the glass back of S23 FE. Another down side is the plastic back is quite slippery so either you use a case or holders like ring or pop socket for a better grip.
    What I hate about this phone are the cameras, both selfie and rear. Pictures are disappointing as it is hit and miss most of the times. Saturation is quite bad especially at colors green, pink, orange, and red. It also tends to make the person a bit wider than usual. No, it's not because of the zoom feature. That's just how it processes the pictures even at normal distance (1x). I had the Snapdragon variant with 8/256 gb so I was expecting that the pics would turn out better than Exynos. 😢 Hope this helps.

    This is my honest opinion about this phone. I have been using samsung galaxy s21 FE for more than 1 year now, I had this phone since March 2022.
    The phone is great, the camera is great, almost everything is great but what I hate about this phone is its storage. It doesn't have an sd card slot, so I can't have extra storage. I also noticed that it heats up faster than my previous samsung phone. As a result, the back of the phone started to detach from the phone little by little. I have not overcharged this, so it's impossible that the battery is bloating, I assume it's from the heat, and that's why the glue seems to lose its adhesive. I don't know if it is because my country is just hot so my phone usually overheats.
    As much as I love this phone, this is my bad experience of using it.

    Hey, great video, I'm considering getting this phone, has android 14 become available for it? I haven't used a samsung phone since the s4 (switched to oneplus but now I'm looking at other brands) so I'm not sure how good samsung is with giving the latest updates. Also that controller you're using looks really good, is it good quality? And if you'd recommend it whats the name of it? :) Thanks for the awesome video :D

Nord 3 was slightly better when zoomed in, but felt big and slippery compared to this one and I liked this UI more.

    S21FE is still the best phone on the market for me in july 2024 (I got the Snapdragon 888 version olso, 128GB, olive green, Bought in july 2022, price €380 Samsung buds2 included). I don't like the bulky phones today (s-Ultra 24) but I do like QHD & curved screens... Unfortunately Samsung stopped with curved screens on the s-line after the s20. You coud say in that way the (basic) S-flagships with QHD don't exist anymore. I also don't like the (apple)flat phone disigns Samsungs uses today, I hope the curved screens will be back in the future with QHD (and a better battery, that was definitely a weak point of the s20)

    Love the snappy performance and amazing display and speakers, however I find the battery life subpar and the fact it doesn't have an automatic power saving mode is soooo annoying, if you forget to turn power saving off your alarms wont work correctly. The charging speed is too slow as well, meaning I have power saving on almost constantly and that 120hz display and snappy performance goes out the window.
