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

Using it for over a year now—still going strong. The screen is vibrant, and the 6000mAh battery lasts nearly two days. Performance is good for daily tasks. A solid mid-range choice that delivers.

No wonder why Samsung is the most used & most loved smartphone brand in the world! This is my first Samsung phone and I exchanged my previous damaged phone online for 2k. After spending one whole month in researching the best phone under 15k, I finally got it figured out and chose Galaxy M21. And Youtube videos and comments helped me take the wise choice. I got the deal (4gb 64gb) at Rs.13,500 and got it delivered in 6 days. Plenty of reasons why I chose M21: Will to honour our country heroes Monster Battery Great Display (feels like you are also present in the movie) Trust in Samsung Brand Name Better Camera Lesser weight (a boon for long time gamers) Polycarbonate back (safe against drops) Premium look rather than Fancy Nancy cheap plastic body Type C Charger The Processor Debate: To those who wonder the same as I did (If we can play Pubg smoothly), The honest answer is YES. Pls do not take third opinions who claim that Exynos processor is lame (which is a false claim of knowledge). I can't say if it is bad or awesome, but it is definitely Decent! You can play Smooth+Extreme or Balanced+Ultra without any issue. Even if you do full and heavy usage for 12 hours continiously, battery is sufficient and fast charging works too. So i easily charge every night before going to sleep and turn it off in middle of night. Super Tips for Common Problems in All Phones Update OS to avoid heating & restart issue (which happens not only in M21 but even in 60k phones Never use a phone cleaner or battery saver app. Use the inbuilt power saving option. Turn off Bluetooth, Location, etc when not needed Don't charge even after reaching 100% Close apps when not needed, especially close all when playing game (and also enable gaming mode) Uninstall least used apps Whoever reads this comment can trust me and click the Amazon "Buy Now" button without any fear because this is the ONE perfect-ish smartphone under 15k category. Friends.... this phone feels like you hold jewel in your hand .

Good product

the phone overall for an normal user is good but for a heavy user like me its not good. As i have bought it for my mother its a good device for her because she dont play games or take many photos or videos. she use it most for calling and watching youtube for which amoled display is very good. Gaming - if u play games like pubg u should not buy this phone because it has many problem with gaming even if u are average gamer u should not buy this for pubg it has many graphic option like u can select smooth + extreme graphic setting but that does not mean that game will run at 60fps it still runs around 30-35 fps. and if u play games in 50% or lower battery the game lags very much but if u are playing at 100% battery it runs much smooth with constant fps (around 40fps). phone performance get degraded after the battery is lower then 80%. camera - the camera is below average dont know why samsung call it true 48mp. you can get average photos in daylight but no matter in which condition you take photo there are no detail in photo from rear camera all photos looks weird, although in selfie the skin details are better then in rear camera. And worst part is you can not even use google camera on this device as there is no camera to api support. WIFI/Hotspot - there is wifi issue, while i use wifi on this phone the speed is very low but when i use same wifi on my other phone the speed is much better and constant. i tried testing 4g speed which is much lower in this device then compared to my other device. There is big problem with the hotspot like if you turn on its hotspot for longer the phone will heat like oven and then freeze for few minutes then when u will turn on screen it will take few minutes and then restart an this happen every single time. UI- samsung ui is good and there were no bugs its easy and simple. overall a average phone you can buy it if you like samsung and if you want big amoled display (because display is only good thing in this device) otherwise go for any other device with better specs.

Overall quality good, value for money

Here is my review on the new samsung m21. I'm using this smartphone from 2 months so I can give my comment to help you guys make up your decision. I categorise my review based on the following points: (a) Built Quality (b) Display (c) Camera (d) Performance (e) Software (f) Battery (A) Build quality: It's a nice looking phone with a standard build quality nothing fancy on the back. Plain standardised back side with glossy finish but very well built keeping in mind it has 6000 mah battery. It's feels quite light in hands. It's a sturdy phone and it can handle if it accidentally it drops sometime. If you want to get fully packed phone in this price range it's a good phone to buy with this build quality. (B) Display: We all know samsung make great displays so here also it's a 6.4 inch water drop notch mailed display which is amazing in this price range. I bought this phone only for its great display and cameras. I mostly watch videos on my phone and it's a great experience. Even the touch response is also very good in samsung phones. Amoled display and 6000 mah battery is a great combination. (C) Camera: Camera is it's highlight in this price range. Samsung captures very good photos with a good balance of colors and natural sharp photos. The colors in photos are not over saturated. It takes very good photos. M21 has 20 mp front cam and 48 mp back camera which takes amazing photos. Samsung live focus provide some amazing features. Samsung UI is brilliant providing u some amazing features in camera. (D) Performance: Samsung's performance is quite balanced with exynos 9611 series processor. I don't do much gaming but for occasional gaming it will not disappoint you but specifically for gaming you can check out some other products with better processors in this price range. But for day to day usage it performs good and samsung hi provides great performance with this processor. So you are getting a good camera bigger battery and sufficient powerful processor. (E) Software: Samsung UI is great no ads altogether and has great features which are really useful. You can check some videos on features for samsung UI. I like the Samsung standardised UI which is great easy to use and smooth. (F) Battery: For battery it's a 6000 mah battery so you can expect a 2 days battery life for normal user and 1 day full use for heavy users who do a lot of gaming movie and videos watching. But for battery you can give 7 star and samsung did a great work by keeping the phone light weigh also with this massive battery inbuilt. So it's a great phone in this price range. Fully packed samsung phone.
