Shall wait for S21 to hit RM28xx before thinking of getting for the missus

Being an early adopter for samsung phones promises kaw kaw losses when u resell no ,atter qhat.


Ya man... hypocrisy at its best. I'd be ashamed if I am Samsung, even their fans should be.

can use OTG pendrive, still very convenient.

If wanna buy, will wait few months 1st

Side note, totally no idea what is the selling point for S21 series

Not only that.No innovation but downgrades instead. You actually get short changed for paying more.

Ya but for those who previous use any android phone that comes with microsd, if they buy S21 series, then they cannot use microsd

Although it is 25W, but it can beat most of the Chinese phones which have 50W charging rate and below in charging speed. If you say those 65W, 120W fast charge, then they are much more faster.

Why tho? Different charging technology?

I think it is better to go for the + model because 800mAh can be noticeable in daily use. If battery capacity is only 300mAh difference then different story.

Samsung 25W charger charges at full speed(25W) most of the time. Their 45W just a little bit faster than 25W for just a few minutes(provided if u charges from 0-100), if you charges from 30-100 then both took the same time to charge.

The first S21 (Exynos 2100) initial review! No benchmark test though since the embargo is not yet lifted.

My phone is 4 years old with 20w fast charging and now 2021 only cap at 25w. Thats kinda slow by today standard sadly.

Check this out

Still remember Samsung brought back the microsd slot to S10 after they removed it from S9

Maybe if fans make enough noise samsung will bring it back again for S22

And Samsung kind of gone in reverse if they omitted the 45W charging which they introduced back in Note10 era.

Though to be fair, blindly pushing for faster charging speed but not finding ways to mitigate the heats generated when doing so will likely backfire as the battery degrading excessively prematurely.

Allow me to ask a stupid question please....
No SD slot means no dual simcard? Cause i need dual simcards~~~

To me battery degradation is nothing compare with how fast current society changing phones so long can last good few years. If they intro superfast charging at least is a new feature that i believe alot ppl will prefer bt they only care to update the camera year in year out. Or might be they reserve good innovations to their foldables who know.

The deal breaker for me currently is
-1080 screen
-No micro SD

What makes me wanna buy is
-the free buds
-maxis installment ( xiaomi don't have or have to wait long)
-Snapdragon 888 overheating

I kinda wishing S20 FE drops price

It's dual sim. Just that the SD card slot is gone

Eh, S9 memang got microsd slot lah, where got removed..
