Hi guys

 
Just wanted to give my opinion on my s21 ultra exynos version.
So before I got my phone I done a bit of research, I mean spending £1000+ I'd be mad not to.i had concerns about about the overheating issues some people were having and the whole exynos v Snapdragon debate.
 
But in the end I decided to take the plunge and I got to be honest I'm so glad I did.ok yeah it's expensive but it really is a premium phone,I've had many many phones in the past and this is definitely the most premium of them all.and I love my phones I currently own 4 of them it's an addiction 😅.
 
Anyway like I said I have the exynos version (UK) and these are my pros and cons.
 
Pros:
1) battery is pretty solid,I'm currently on 77% battery with 3.5 hours SOT
2)it's super smooth just like my OnePlus 8t which is impressive
3)the display is just beautiful 😍
4)it's packed full of features,so much so I'll probably never even find them all
5)the design build of the phone is beautiful (I have the black one)
6)not had any overheating issues,the phone got warm when I transferred my data over from one of my other phones but I mean warm not "hot"
7)oh yeah the cameras are brilliant,I mean I'm not really one for taking lots of pictures so I'm no expert but definitely the best I've used on a phone.
 
Cons:
1)no charger/headphones in the box,I mean if you spend this much on a phone Samsung should give you the option to receive one free of charge if you don't have one already.
2)the phone is big,now this can be a pro or con,me personally I like it but just thought I'd put it in cons to fill the space😂
 
I would also like to give a mention to Samsung customer service who have been brilliant and the Samsung community some helpful people out there 👍.
 
Anyway that's my thoughts,thank you for coming to my Ted talk 😉

did you trade in when you got your ultra? Samsung want my tab in 7 days but the bag takes 3-5 working days to come lol

You're really tempting me to get the s7 now 😂 , I think the 7 days is from when you get the pack

God I have never kept a phone but think I will keep the S20 as it will make a really good spare as in the past if my phone has gone wrong I have had to use a 2016 iPhone se in rose gold 😱 (the family spare phone)

this is very odd Jon,I hate to say it but it seems like your battery is faulty,you might have to send it in to be repaired.
the only time my battery drains quickly is when I'm video calling on whatsapp but that's to be expected.
