go for the ultra. 

superior camera and functionality.   

think of it this way.  you invest in a better phone for long term usage. say 3~4 years.    is not like you are going to upgrade phone every year right. 

so go for the ultra. 

really worth it.

Yes, it really is worth the extra RM 800. You're getting a better screen, much better cameras, S-Pen functionality, slightly better battery life and the sizes are so similar you won't feel a difference holding/using it compared to the S21+.

Your options should really be either the S21 or S21 Ultra only. The Plus feels like a redundant device that offers nothing much when compared with the S21 and S21 ultra.

slightly better battery if i set at fhd+ for the ultra
similar size but heavier for the ultra
why i'm considering the plus and the ultra and not the vanila s21 is because the battery

what i see is rm800 for the zoom camera and qhd display. what else did i miss?

You pretty much summed it up.

The Ultra's screen is actually more power efficient than the S21+ as it has a VRR of 10 to 120 hz. If you're going to use it on FHD+, you'll see a much bigger battery improvement when compared to the S21+.

Then again, if cameras and stylus isn't something you need and you intend on using FHD+, there is no reason to consider the Ultra to begin with.

When the battery is the most important point, S21+ makes more sense.

i didn't know about the VRR of the s21u. I think i'll go for the U then.
