More little feedback on the telco reception.
I was in my carpark just now. Signal switched to 3G with only 1 bar. Previous Huawei P20 Pro still 4G with 2 to 3 bars, accessing internet not an issue. Granted I know Huawei phone has better signal than my previous Sony, I wonder if Samsung signal really that off? I guess folks with good area coverage would not face this problem.
One thing I like to seek Samsung guru's help, when there are missed message, there's no led indicator permanently on for S21. Internet says S20 uses edge lighting. I tried the only edge lighting setting I could find. The lighting only lasts for a while when message comes in.
How do I have a permanent light indicator to indicate there's pending message, reminder, tasks, etc? Notification indicator while the screen is off.
Thanks.

Battery life is good , can easily hit 6 - 7 hours of SOT on my S21 , but it's only been 2 days having the phone.
Signal is noticeably weaker compare to my OnePlus 8 pro , in the same area with the s21 I would have slightly weaker signal . Especially in underground parking . I'm on Celcom though

Thanks for the feedback bro. I had the Note 10+ for a bit and the weak signal strength drove me to sell the phone off in less than a month, so I wanna make sure it's not the case for the S21 series since I've not used any other Exynos powered phone since then
Then again, with the MCO and working from home, I suppose signal strength isn't as critical these days
sigh, after so many years, samsung exynos still cant up their antenna quality
the pain is real when u go to places with relatively poor signal reception, not even kampung, just normal restaurants
the exynos would crazily keep on looking for signal, n burns the phone real hot
i mean cool if one always only go to high class place with free wifi or CBD, but thats not the reality
till now, paying premium for samsung flagship still cant even fulfill this basic need from a phone
imagine low to mid end phones using SD have better reception than flagship
i sakit hati every time think of that
