1649$ CAD for the S21 Ultra that supports it... Holy crap.

No thanks.
i'll stick to my S10 which has a 1440p display and a headphone jack.
And a weight of only 157 g
Wifi 6 is good enough

Still on an iphone 6s plus, making me what I wonder? Only ac and happy with it.

FWIW, the S21U also has a 1440p display, but it does lack the headphone jack. More importantly they've also ditched the SD card this time around. But I'm still going for it. Samsung is giving me $700 trade-in on my S20U, and along with other goodies it'll equate to about $400 or less to upgrade. But I certainly wouldn't do it just for 6E. I'll wait a couple of years until 6E routers come down in price.

I'll be holding on to my Note 10+ w/512GB for a while longer... this baby is still cooking and just got the Android 11 update.

S10 is definitely the best phone they've ever made.

Android unfortunately - and SamDroid at that...

To me, it seems like the Samsung flagships are the best of the worst.

What is better in your view @sfx2000?

Omg, phones are the one thing that devalue so much. Long haul, I’ll stick with Apple, even if it’s 3 plus years old like someone here they own a iphoje. Android is like the Windows of phone operating systems, IMO.

wifi 6E on a phone is overkill unless your needs are so demanding but for that matter, just hardwire an ultra book or a MacBook Air. Samsung has more bloat ware then.... and their phones slow down so much last time as they age last I used them. Granted Apple is not without flaw by sometimes slowing down the phone to “save battery” and make more money.

I didn’t want to believe it but my internet didn’t get three times or 5 times or whatever times with the new AX stuff. My two cents.

Samsung's Android skin has improved a lot over the years. I only use it here on a Tab 5e tablet, but so far it's fine. I just replaced the launcher with Microsoft Launcher like I do on all my Android devices anyway.

I run Nova Launcher Prime on my Samsung. Love the customizability.

Microsoft Launcher is a must. Still hoping I can afford a Surface Duo before I hit ninety.

I like the Samsung One UI as they call it i've found no need to replace it on my S10.
