r/S21Ultra

▲ 60 r/S21Ultra+1 crossposts

Hello all,
I have a galaxy S21 ultra. I’ve used it with utmost care. But after the recent update the screen has a green line at the centre (no drops or damages)
The phone is 2nd hand purchased from Singapore so I do not have a bill/box.
Tried the basics already:
Restarted device multiple times
Booted into safe mode
Checked for new updates (cause of the green line in the 1st place).

Checked at service centre and was informed screen replacement is required and would cost 29k( isse half ka toh phone liya tha bhai).

Anyone else has a working fix for this ??

Want to upgrade my S21U

I have had an S21 Ultra (256GB/12GB) since launch and honestly, it has held up way better than I thought. I'm still getting fine performance out of it but it's not getting security updates anymore and the battery health is poor so I think it's finally time to upgrade.

I want to stick with Samsung but I’m strangely having a hard time deciding because the majority of the marketing for the newer phones are things I literally do not care about.

Things I care about:

Same or better specs: 256GB storage/12GB RAM.

QHD+/1440p display.

Strong vibration/haptics.

Better overall camera than the S21U, even if the zoom is not crazy.

A phone that’ll still get security updates for a while.

Phone staying cool (my S21U gets hot even doing simple tasks).

Things I really don’t care about:

AI features.

S Pen.

Gaming performance/benchmarks.

100x zoom or whatever Samsung is advertising now.

I’d consider another Ultra, but I’m also open to the Plus models if they don’t feel like a downgrade coming from the S21U. My only worry is Samsung usually keeps the best screen/haptics/camera experience for the Ultras.

For people who have upgraded from the S21 Ultra, what did you move to? Did it actually feel like an upgrade in daily use? How are the haptics compared to the S21U? Any models you regret buying or would avoid?

Mostly looking for real-world opinions rather than spec sheet stuff since Samsung hasn't really improved specs outside of the processor since the S21 Ultra. Thanks.

What’s the most stable software version of Android & One UI for the S21U?

Mine is currently on Android 12 and One UI 4.1, the phones battery is weak according to the Samsung Memebers app so I was wondering what version would give the best performance and battery life.

Also the phone says it’s on the latest update so I will have to flash new firmware manually.
