me too..  initially wanted to go for xiaomi mi 11 pro  but  now the mi 11  already show signs of heating problem. 

at first i was skeptical about samsung phone.  the history of lag and exynos chip  and heat issues. 

i just have 1 complaint for the s21 ultra.  it only supports 25w  fast charging.    to me its not enough for the price that we are paying for the phone

For me 25W is already fast enough and also good for your battery health. S21 ultra also has insane battery power so why you need much faster charger which can make your phone burnt.

Just trade in my Note 20 ultra with S21 Ultra last week. I found the 4G signal strength on S21 Ultra is just the same with Note 20 Ultra. around 2 or 3 bar only (average between -93 to 100 dBM). Not much improvement on 4G signal strenght as I would expect). When I change the Sim Card to IP12 Pro Max the 4G signal strength is always at full bar. The 4G speed test using IP12 Pro Max also faster & stronger in IP12 Pro Max compared to S21 Ultra. Maybe modem Qualcomm used on IP12 Pro is better than Exynos modem used on S21 Ultra.

Slightly better than the Note 20 Ultra fingerprint. Dont need to press harder now. But occasionally I still need to press 2 to 3 times if i miss the fingerprint spot. Not as fast & reliable like optical fingerprint used by Vivo & Oppo phones

You mean wireless trio charger?

And, did you received the galaxy buds pro?
*
Yes trio charger. The galaxy buds pro already got it during Note 20 ultra purchase.

oh my you're confused on what you'be missed out.

Note 20U comes with Buds Live
Pre-Order S20U depending beli mana, comes with ANOTHER Buds PRO (not Live), Fit2 (Pre-order ROI, or SenQ PO), Samsung wired ANC (Samsung online) on top the other Trio wireless charger and the useless SmartTag.
*
I dont miss it since I never use the Buds live also. Still inside the box. smile.gif

Thanks for your detail explaination. The note20u having bigger square screen which I like the most. But I really cant tahan with the battery life and especially warm when heavy usage.

If I go for s21u, i will have to sacrifice the big screen and S-Pen. ... and of course fork out more money ...... not sure worth or not if just want to get better battery life.

I play few games only ... mostly play Tennis Clash ... and exynos990 getting very hot if I dont switch it to 60hz ... and throttled after 10-15mins ... very bad on n20u expensive phone.

If money is your concern, then just keep your Note 20 Ultra. I have trade in my Note 20 Ultra with S21 Ultra due to same issues like you. But after 3 days of usage I feel only slight improvement on the performance. The 4G signal strenght no improvemnet at all. Hopefully no drop call problems like Note 20 Ultra last time due to poor 4G signal strength on Exynos 990 last time. Still 3 days of usage so I cannot make any conclusion yet.

i think is our telco problem

i own iphone se and note9

both signal is very poor on maxis at certain area or most of the area, haha

If you want better signal strenght use phone with Qualcomm modem x55 chipset eg. IP12 series or Android phone using SD 865 or 888. When I swap my sim card from S21 ultra to IP12 ProMax, the 4G signal strength instantly improve a lots.

Hi all, anyone feel the s21Ultra is pretty warm after few minutes use?

My normal usage like web browsing, social apps(fb,whatsapp), shopee, watching youtube, all causing my s21ultra feel quite warm and it's uncomfortable to hold it long. is that normal?

Ofcoz, using camera and gaming make my device burning.

coming from note 8, and my note 8 only get hot when gaming, normal use quite cool. I suspect I got the defect unit sad.gif
*
Yes it is hotter due to the higher refresh rate at 120Hz and also higher resolution at 2K. Please test it at 60hz refresh rate & Full HD if it cooler.

I also installed T-Max UV TG (from Shopee) last night, turned out a lot dust within the glue, and now the dust is all over the screen underneath. Fingerprint sensor also couldn't work despite putting a 50 cents coin on top of the scanner before curing it with UV light. At least, this TG is case-friendly with the official silicon case with S-Pen.

Can anyone recommended reliable good TG brand that can work with fingerprint scanner?

Thanks.

Very difficult to recommend now since this phone just been released. You should have kept the original SP preinstalled with the phone which has been optimized to work with the fingerprint.

The original one is just a thin plastic layer, not optimal for long term use. Anyway tempered glass doesn't work because of the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.

At least the thin plastic layer can still give some protection alongside the gorilla glass victus

Could be something wrong with the tester. Maybe need to be calibrated.
