          Lol I love people that single out one company for things they might have heard, yet probably use various other companies that have equally dodgy dealings. Mate all corporate business is corrupt, go live off the grid if you feel that way.

      You could always try, but considering Amazon is a warehouse & not a store you can just walk into & make a purchase, it might be difficult to obtain considering their T&C's.

    Is this the 6gb, exynos? Lol

    • Caped Baldy on 08/04/2022 - 09:50

      Yeah, I'd avoid. S22 might be a bit more but worth it for the SD

    • foxpants on 08/04/2022 - 10:25
      +2

      I have the Exynos S21 Ultra and it has no issues, mostly on par with the SD888, wins some, loses some.

      • Cinnamon Crunch on 09/04/2022 - 07:27

        The ultra has 12-16gb ram? Unsure of the actual noticeable difference. Obviously price is different but guessing that will help it out performance.
        I personally do not enjoy exynos and have found it to lack on some of the things i wanted to do, because its also the gpu that is different.
        The gap between the two products is still not an acceptable loss.

        • foxpants on 11/04/2022 - 09:44
          +1

          My Exynos S21U has 12gb/256gb yes. I play games and I still find the GPU to be fantastic, but not comparing the two head to head I have no personal point of reference for performance except the phone I had before. In any case overall the performance is not only acceptable, it's excellent imo.

        They never accepted my Huawei for trade, but they did accept a random imei I googled. Not like I was going to send a phone in anyways

        • superforever on 08/04/2022 - 09:37

          But you have to enter your C.C. in the trade in app to get the code to work.

          • krisspy on 08/04/2022 - 16:18

            @superforever: Yes, and? The give me a discount then charge me for it when i dont send a phone through.

            The trade ins were always just about triggering the bonus credit.

          How? You have to install their app on an eligible phone and run a process to produce a trade in code

    • ozhunter68 on 08/04/2022 - 09:33

          Yeah, agree but was bit curious to know. I got it as new off ebay six months ago and battery still really good,

          best phone I have had. Just bought mum an as new S9 + but battery not so good so mainly wondering about that one.

    how does this compare to the S21 ultra? need a new phone for the Mrs, i got mine through work (S21 ultra) but I don't want to cough up that much cash. Shes mostly interested in the camera.

    • superroach on 08/04/2022 - 09:47
      +2

      ….. poorly? The 21 fe is their budget line.

      The camera is the biggest difference between the fe and the ultra.

      This is all relative though, it's still a good camera.

      • yeahyeahnahh on 08/04/2022 - 09:50
        +1

        thats what i suspected. Probably better than the Iphone 8 she has now though..

        • Icyraindrops on 08/04/2022 - 10:39
          +3

          It's not their budget line, that's the A series. It performs similarly to the flagship S line though will have a worse camera and a couple other smaller co promises I can't remember. It's fine and is a massive upgrade from the 8.

      • callumds on 08/04/2022 - 10:10
        +4

        Budget flagship, not just budget. This is still an S-series phone, they have much more budget options than this.

    • foxpants on 08/04/2022 - 09:58

      The camera won't be as versatile, but you still get a wide, ultrawide and zoom lens, you just miss the 10x zoom. In terms of other camera features I assume it comes with all the same modes the S21U does too, it just might not be to the same quality as the lenses are different.

      Outside of that, it's slightly smaller and the screen is lower res, a few other differences but I doubt they'd be deal breakers in practice, this is a lot of phone for the money.

    • daleroy1234 on 08/04/2022 - 10:39

      I have the S20 FE 5G model and for the money it's a cracking phone. Good battery life and screen. Zero complaints.

        a cracking phone

        I thought that was the Flip.

    • rwt on 08/04/2022 - 13:18

      have a look at oppo x3 pro - on eBay sales/specials you can grab it for about $800-850 and the camera is better than 21 ultra (dxomark score 121 vs 131)

  • NoelBargain on 08/04/2022 - 09:47
    +1

    anyone used this phone before?
    Given that this cost, how does this compare to the S22? I heard that the battery life is really bad for S21 FE.

    • Caped Baldy on 08/04/2022 - 09:52
      +2

      I haven't had a Samsung for years but keep hearing mixed things about the exynos chips. I think it's worth getting the S22 over this for the snapdragon chip if you want to get a Samsung phone.

    • jackwilk on 08/04/2022 - 10:03
      +2

      I reckon if few extra dollars is no problem, then S22 is a better option - better camera, snapdragon, more ram, more stylish look and feel etc. Is it worth extra 300+ bucks… very subjective decision.

      Having said that, I moved to S21 FE from S20. Had it for only a couple of weeks now, but can say already it feels snappier, battery lasts me full day easy, and doesn't get as hot. I'm running on 120 Hz screen refresh rate, which I thought will use more battery.

      I'm a light user though - calls, chats and internet, no games.

      • NoelBargain on 08/04/2022 - 10:19

        I though they both using 'Snapdragon' for 5G version?

        • jackwilk on 08/04/2022 - 10:29
          +1

          Around the world yes, our S21 FE 5G and S20 5G both use Exynos.

    • Nayferious on 08/04/2022 - 13:49

      Full charge lasts between 15-19 hours for me (battery saving mode) and that's with 6+ hours of screen time.

  • superroach on 08/04/2022 - 09:51

    At $999, this was universally panned, this was probably one of the nicer reviews. This should have been it's real launching price imo (too close to a s22 or other s21 at the time).

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Jc5Ryk2mCw

    With Samsung providing 4 years of updates now, that will help with the resale of this device if that's a thing for you.

  • Antfan on 08/04/2022 - 10:02

    Comes with no wall charger but an ear bud is complementary with this device, .if I'm correct.. Can anyone confirm pls

    • jackwilk on 08/04/2022 - 10:04

      In my case - no case, no wall charger and no buds in the box. Just phone and a sim pin.

    • strangeloops66 on 08/04/2022 - 19:03

      Typical Samsung, making the consumer pay for the other bud ;)

    • hellousyd on 08/04/2022 - 11:46
      +1

      this one will have better resale value than the A73, but if you want to spend less money and get an identical experience, I would just go for the A73. Could even sell the buds for $100 on eBay after fees and shipping.

    • 3v3rqu357 on 08/04/2022 - 13:03
      +1

      Or you could go the A52s off the edu store for cheaper with no buds, same snapdragon as the A73, but camera not as good.

      OTOH, exynos battery life and throttling concerns aside, this phone is theoretically faster and you do get wireless charging and a 3x optical zoom camera that the A series don't (ignoring the A72)

      • mett139 on 08/04/2022 - 12:01

    Exynos shmexinos. I don't pay attention to the geeky reviews on the internet. I have this phone and works very well and get full day of battery out of it. My only issue with these phones is the insane amt of samsung bloatware which I've disabled using Aliance shield.

    • GNRICHO on 11/04/2022 - 01:18

      Is the Alliance Shield easy to use ? Does stopping some apps effect phone usage ? How do you know what to disable ? Thanks.

      • gimme on 11/04/2022 - 12:02
        +1

        For me YES as I've been doing it for years on many phones. The app is pretty straight forward and there's good instructions on how to set it up. I don't want to say it's easy or hard as it's relative. If you do your research on how to use the app and what bloatware to disable depending on what you want then it's very doable. I disable most samsung apps (PAY, cloud, account etc) and some google crap I don't use.

          • mett139 on 09/04/2022 - 13:21

            @b0b0: I just cancelled my S21 FE order from the store and bought on Amazon. I waited 3 weeks, after calling, emailing, and live chatting with no explanation or ETA given. Would not recommend the struggle of purchasing from the online store.
