Samsung Galaxy M21 (Midnight Blue, 4GB RAM, 64GB Storage)

Actually it's worth a four star but compare it's price and the brand name I should make it as 5 star . Compare to the Chinese companys it's back is plastic but elegant in look ,chinese they are providing glass backs Frankly it's a nice product from a samsung that also a made india product in this value is amazing 48 mp camera 6000mah battery samoled led octra core processor etc that are the main features 48mp camera it's pretty good for video or photo and the 20mp front camera that's work well in low lights but not that good in dark ,low light that's ok 6000 mah battery that's good enough for one day moderate use . In my case I used it 10 hours countiously with games ,video ,fb etc then also it's last for next day morning Finger print reader that's work quickly so no wate of time For gaming I am not a game addict but I used to pay mediam level games escapes that's are pretty good in it Pretty good display The negative sides are Camera For me if I use the back camera for a video around 10 minute it's starts getting over heated I don't know it's only for me or everyone facing the same Battery it's 6000 mah but effectively it's works like a 5000mah only because of its power drawing processor Finger print reader Sometimes not frequently ie rarely it's not even working , i think it's may cause the slight wetness or moister Processor It's a octra core one but not the latest one It was introduced a year back that's is nothing but it's a power drainer Whatever the negatives are there also it's worth for money product . The negatives are not even a big one ie camera while taking pics there is no issue ,they know about the power drawing processor so they added the 6kmah battery , if we use the clean hand means the fingerpri also works fine .So there is nothing to worry about the phone that's absolutely fine in this budget

Very good product 👌 Nice Mobile

This was a very good smartphone for its price segment. I used it for more than 4 years as my primary device, and it performed reliably throughout that time. The phone offered good overall performance, a solid display, and excellent battery life during most of its lifespan. I finally stopped using it only because the battery started degrading after long-term usage, which is expected after several years of regular use. Overall, it was a dependable and durable device that served well for years. A good purchase and great value for money at the time.

This phone is extremely great. Last very long. Also it's accessories are available easily and can be repaired easily.

After going through so many phones, I finally decided to buy this one. I checked the phone for few days, here are my observations - 1. Battery Backup - 4/5, no complain for backup 2. Fast Charging - 3/5, It took 2.5 hr to go from 5% to 100% 3. Camera - 3.5/5, Front Camera is good, On Rear Side it has only, Wide Angle & Ultra Wide Angle but no Telephoto Lens. Zoom only works for Wide Angle lens but it is useless as it is not Lens zoom rather it is software zoom, it means capturing a shot then zoom out to check a spot is same as capturing the zoomed out shot, at least I felt this way. There are few other features in camere like - in built editor for Slowmo Videos, Panorma, GIF creator. 4. Speakers - 3/5, It is avg not very great, although I loved the Dolby Atmos feature, it enhances the 3D Audio experience to next level. Mic & receivers were all working properly in initial few calls, not sure about their future. I have seen many complain about Mic, Receiver after 5-6 month of use. 5. Finger Print - 4/5, It is fast, was able to distinguish different fingers even with same patterns. 6. Face Unlock - 4/5, It is also fast, had feature to enable/Disable fast unlock but I did not feel any difference when enabled/Disabled. It has option to stop unlock when eyes are close, so no one can unlock while you are sleeping :). only complain is, was not able to detect Glasses, was unlocking with/without Glasses, don't know if this is the feature. 7. Display - 4/5, I did not feel much difference between LCD & LED display but I have to believe on experts if they are saying LED Panel have more colors blah...Let it be. Problem is with non-standard resolution, sometimes even 1080p video files are not covering the whole screen, although inbuilt video player has the option to stretch to fit the screen. Faced same problem with youtube videos but sadly there was no option to stretch there. Due to curved screen corner options are also not completely visible with Games. 8. I was excited to know whether this phone supports the simultaneous call & internet access on different sim Cards but sadly it does not. You won't be able to use Data with SIM2 if are on call with SIM1. Although both SIM slots 4G LTE. 9. Speed & Graphics - 3.5/5, to check speed I installed few Games, I installed Call of Duty 2.0+GB game & NFS no limits around 1.0GB. I did not face any lag with NFS but with Call of Duty faced Lag sometime. 10. Initial Memory Usage was 15.0 GB. Phone had many unwanted apps, I was able to uninstall many of them but could not remove the NetFlix & facebook app, only option was to disable them. Although I tried playing games but I feel it is not a gaming phone, Except sAMOLED display, Dolby Atmos I don't see any flagship features in phone. Please be careful while setting up phones otherwise will receive lot of marketing notifications from Samsung. Mistakenly I clicked some options with reading enough & then Samsung Galaxy Store started downloading lot of unnecessary apps, there was no way so stop it, I could get the Download queue, it really made me Sad that a brand like Samsung also do such things. I was manually stopping the apps as soon they start downloading, I spent 30 mins doing this.

I've been using the Samsung Galaxy M21 since its launch in 2021, and overall, it's been a good device for everyday tasks. (although i had to replace screen once after it turned all purple) Pros: Display: The 6.4" Super AMOLED screen is good and crisp. Watching videos or browsing social media is a pleasure. Battery Life: The 6000 mAh battery easily lasts a full day with moderate to heavy use. Even after years of usage, it holds up well. ​ Build Quality: Despite its plastic back, the phone feels sturdy and comfortable to hold. ​ Cons: Performance: The Exynos 9611 processor handles daily tasks smoothly, but it struggles with heavy gaming or multitasking. Occasional lags are noticeable. ​ Software Updates: Samsung has ceased software updates for this model, which might be a concern for some users. ​ Bloatware: The phone comes with several pre-installed apps that can't be removed, which can be annoying. ​ Final Thoughts: If you're looking for a budget-friendly smartphone with a great display and battery life for everyday use, the Galaxy M21 is a solid choice. However, if you're a power user or gamer, you might want to explore other options.

Excellent Product...
