Samsung Galaxy S21
- Ergonomics and design
- Screen
- Performance
- Photo
- Autonomy
- Durability
The Samsung Galaxy S21 is an excellent smartphone, which simply sins by its too limited autonomy. For the rest, the qualities of the mobile are undeniable: its panel is excellent, even exceptional, the performance is top-notch, the daytime photos are good, and it incorporates almost all of the brand’s know-how. Still, this phone has, as always, good rivals in front of it, such as the Xiaomi Mi 10, better armed in terms of autonomy, or the Google Pixel 5, terribly effective in photography, although less versatile.
Strong points
- A superb screen, perfectly calibrated.
- Very nice design and finishes.
- Very good performance of the Exynos 2100.
- Waterproof to 1.5m depth for 30 minutes.
Weak points
- Autonomy too fair.
- The lack of a charging block.
- Night photos still limited.
Alternatively
Google Pixel 6
- Ergonomics and design
- Screen
- Performance
- Photo
- Autonomy
- Repairability
- Durability
Once again, Google demonstrates its complete mastery of mobile photography. Unfortunately, this does not make the Pixel 6 a perfect smartphone, mainly because of its Oled panel not quite up to the competition, or its limited autonomy and its charging far too slow for the top of the range. Despite this, thanks to its power and the overall experience it offers, it is definitely still one of the best smartphones on the market.
