Rated 5 out of 5

Great price for a relatively modern phone!

Phone arrived in incredible condition. The screen and case are flawless. Charge port also has a really strong connection when I do not use inductive charging. No issues with performance either. Everything is very snappy and works great (however, my last phone was an S7; so everything feels like it is moving at light speed in comparison). It gets a little hot when playing a game on it for short periods of time, but otherwise there are no performance issues. Solid battery life too; I charge it once every other day!

Very disappointed

I actually am extremely disappointed. The phone freezes all the time. In fact I got your phone number to call you about returning it to you and getting my old phone back. It certainly not what I expected. I talked to a Samsung representative in a local Walmart and he explained to me I was much better off buying a brand new one. I took out the Samsung care for $10 a month then I read about it and it wouldn't cover this problem. I've only had it for 43 days actually not even that because I didn't get it connected to Verizon until a few days later. I have paid attention to your email about receiving it inspecting it and what the result would be for my old phone it says you have not inspected it yet. I won't pay any more money I would be very happy just getting my old phone back. I have owned many Samsungs in fact that's the only phone I have owned since I have had a mobile phone and that's been since the year 2001. They've always been very reliable but I always bought them new. So I would appreciate your emailing me back about how I can return this to you and get my old phone back. Then I will purchase a new new Samsung.

HORRIBLE

i bought my phone 2 years ago and suddenly it stopped charging, then out of nowhere the screen had 2 lines kind of purple and never went away.. i will definitely not buy this phone again. even though i love Samsung i think S10 and below were way better when it comes to phone features.

AMAZING PHONE

I bought this phone nearly 3 years ago and I'm so serious when I say the performance is exactly the same as the day I pulled it out of the box after release. Very much worth the price then and definitely worth the prixe that it is now (its half the original price now). So if you're looking for a good phone that will last and is great quality in every aspect, this is the one. From the response time, video play back, streaming, storage and camera quality, all top tier.

Great features, great price....just a few problems

My parents got me the s21+ about a year and a half ago and I love it, but I do have some issues with it and that is, it has a few glitches like sometimes the screen won't respond and my apps will act a little weird requiring me to restart the phone quit more often then I would like to!! but besides all that I love it and think it was worth getting!

Great Phones but ....missing something.

I have been a long time user of Samsung phones, and there was a time when we would get a charger, and a dongle for the wired system users. Samsung need to bring back giving the consumer "something" in that thin box instead of just a phone and pamphlet ??

Amazing phone

I brought this phone a little over a year ago, I just finished paying it off in full and I have had no complaints about the phone at all. The phone is amazing, the camera is really really good. The phone is pretty fast, charges very fast as well and the battery lasts a pretty long time .

Good for Seniors!

I purchased my Samsung Galaxy S21 5G several months ago. As with any electronics, it took a little while to get used to, but now I find my 84-year-old self able to navigate to where I want to be.

I bought this about 2 years ago brand new with Xfinity. I couldn't be happier. Secure, fast, reliable, plus the temper glass protectors work on this style.

Not my favorite phone

I've had this phone for going on a year now, and I'm so happy it's paid off so that I can upgrade. It's been nothing but a problem with this phone. It recently just shut down and I had to factory reset it and I lost so much. It had been updating but apparently not backing up anything for the last 7 months even though back up was on. That's just one of the many problems I've had with this phone

This device surpasses my expectations. Its processing speed is profound. It renders quality photos and videos. The phone is cosmetically satisfying. This is the best device I've ever owned.

Performance

Had this phone for over a year and it's pretty good. Just the updates seem to change things I may have set up. The 5g is horrible in alot of places, even in the t-mobile stores. Get very frustrated when can't use your phone to look up something say immediately cause there's no so call 5G.

Excellent camera

Got this phone as an upgrade due to phone at the time didn't work anymore. And have not been disappointed yet. Maybe just a bit of a complain to service provider that the signal drops for no reason and it tells me that it can't read SIM card.
