What we like
- Very good screen — super smooth, uniform, and bright
- Two-day battery life
- Good performance
What we don’t like
- Not the incredible value the last FE phone was
- 6GB of RAM means some apps may fall out of memory faster than expected.
Consumer electronics often define our daily lives, from keeping us entertained to allowing us to connect with friends and colleagues around the world. As technology continues to evolve, consumers need to find a device that not only meets their needs but also fits their lifestyle and budget.
Today, I'd like to discuss the Samsung S21FE, an upper mid-range smartphone released in 2021 as one of Samsung's new "Fan Edition" (FE) models aimed at delivering affordable excellence in every aspect without compromising on quality or user experience.
Plastic Design
The camera bump has been enclosed with a plastic back that’s part of this cheaper model instead of being metal, but it doesn't feel flimsy like glass can be when you bend or twist them too much. Instead, they're sturdy enough for daily use without any issues whatsoever!
120Hz-Display
This phone has a 6.4” display, and it is just 1080p, but I think they increased how much of each pixel's surface area gets lit up and sized down some parts for sharper text that doesn't fade quickly when you're reading it at 120Hz refresh rates (which makes everything look smoother).
There are also no signs where this silver accented ring was once around all four sides - which bothered me sometimes because its absence made things feel less personalized than before.
Annoying Fingerprint Sensor
The fingerprint sensor is located too far down the face of this phone. It's uncomfortable to reach with one hand and hit because there isn't enough space between hand muscles here!
One-UI 4.0 Software
Like many of Samsung's recent releases, One UI 4 is a polished version with some minor changes. But this time around, there are more robust indicators for privacy and more distinctive UI elements to help you differentiate between different apps on your phone or tablet--all things Google took into consideration when designing its newest operating system!
Performance
The S21 FE's performance isn’t flawless, simply the RAM isn't enough for heavy multitasking but you won’t notice any app dying again and again in the background with Spotify or other memory-intensive apps.
The Android skin also causes more severe issues such as delayed notifications that can be pretty frustrating when they happen at inconvenient times!
Long-Lasting Battery
The 4500 mAh battery is a godsend for those who spend half their day playing games or watching videos on the go.
I could quickly get two days' worth of use out of it, and typically only had my phone die in between charges when traveling abroad - which isn't something you want to happen often!
Triple-Camera
S21 FE offers a 12MP primary, an ultra-wide 12MP angle of view in addition to 8 megapixels for telephoto work -- it is very flexible.
Moreover, Samsung has not improved much in the camera region; this phone gives a little better picture result than its predecessor but not the best.

Final Words
This phone is just good. The only thing I don’t like about it is its price, which is on the higher side. If Samsung manages to lower its cost a little, I think it’s a good option. If you don’t have a budget constraint, think about buying this, but look for other options.
With such a wide selection of options and brands, it can take time to determine the perfect choice that also fits your budget.
