Samsung Galaxy M21

Amidst the launch of a lot of devices from Samsung, the Samsung Galaxy M21 adds to the list of the affordable smartphones majorly focussing on the necessities of a user like large battery life, fast charging, good display and a decent camera. 

Not too much to talk about the design of the new Samsung Galaxy M21 as it packs the same old plastic body. The device is sleek and light-weight with a fancy triple camera setup at the back and a fingerprint scanner placed in the centre. On the front is a display with very minimal bezels around the chin and a teardrop notch.

The Galaxy M21 has a big 6.4-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity-U display, or say the popular water-drop notch which is Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protected. The display is sufficiently bright, and with a screen ratio of 91%, the viewing experience is enhanced. There is Widevine L1 support on display to allow for HD content streaming on all the entertainment apps. 

Samsung Galaxy M21 houses the Exynos 9611 octa-core processor based on a 10nm chipset. This is assisted by a Mali G-72 GPU and LPDDR4X RAM which results in a great performance for the price. 

The 48MP primary rear camera on the back takes great shots. There is a 5MP depth sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide lens with HDR, Pro mode, Night mode and panorama mode in the camera app. The water-drop notch on the front packs a 20 MP front camera powered by AI which supports a Face unlock option as well. 

Samsung Galaxy M21 majorly focuses on the battery capacity, which is a whopping 6000 mAh. It can last easily for more than a day. With the 15W fast charger in-the-box and Type-C cable, the charging speed is good to go. 

Samsung Galaxy M21 despite having a massive battery and a great display, with a very budget-friendly price tag, lacks to get the best value for money tag because of very average performance and not-so-good camera.
