The S21 Ultra delivers a terrific 10x optical lens and is no longer hampered by some camera options, as was its predecessor, making for a much more uniform experience compared to the S20 Ultra. So if you own an S20, this is not an upgrade must, although Samsung’s trade-in deals do their best to persuade you otherwise. ![]() How they compare: Year over year, the S21 is a small upgrade over the S20 - a refreshed design, a newer processor and faster cameras. And yes, it features 100x Space Zoom versus just 30x on the S21. It also stretches the screen to 6.8 inches while delivering a higher-resolution experience. ![]() Comparatively, the S21 Ultra raises the bar with six cameras in total, including a wide 10x optical lens. And at $799, we’re confident the Snapdragon 888 processor inside will be zippy for many years to come. A 6.2-inch screen is plenty for most, and it acts as a viewfinder for a wide, ultrawide and telephoto lens setup. What you need to know: If you’re not looking for a nearly 7-inch phone but still want top-of-the-line 2021 features, the Galaxy S21 is really the complete package. If you want a premium smartphone that can stand up to anything and can stomach a $1,199 price, it deserves a look. The Galaxy S21 Ultra succeeds as the do-it-all option, with an incredible display and impressive photography chops. If you’re looking to upgrade, it should be near the top of your list. Who these are for: Samsung’s Galaxy S21 is a premium Android smartphone that excels with a fast processor, excellent camera and long battery life. ![]() We’ve spent the past week with Galaxy S21 and S21 Ultra, and while there’s certainly plenty of overlap between the two, we found some clear differences. The 6.8-inch S21 Ultra (starting at $1,199.99), though, packs in additional memory while taking image capture to the extreme. The S21 (starting at $799.99) and S21+ (starting at $999.99) differ only in screen size - 6.2 inches and 6.7 inches, respectively. They still sport Space Zoom like their predecessors, but you’ll now be future-proofed and ready for 5G out of the box, thanks to the latest processor from Qualcomm. Samsung didn’t waste much time getting busy in 2021, already releasing its new line of Galaxy smartphones: the S21, S21+ and S21 Ultra. Your CNN account Log in to your CNN account
