About this deal
Samsung has consistently gone for a saturated look that shines on apps like Instagram and there’s no doubting the brand knows its audience well. Overall, the Exynos 2100 variant of the handset is a step above what we've seen from Samsung previously and this offers one of the best experiences when it comes to performance on an Android phone right now. This is the reason you benefit from a minimum 1-year warranty with the purchase of a refurbished device at Back Market.
This is the current high-end chipset from both companies and the Galaxy S21 is one of the first phones to use them.Our partners are electronics experts who test and verify that each product is 100% functional before it leaves the factory.
In the past, the Exynos variant tended to lag behind the Qualcomm-powered phones in some areas but here the gap seems to have narrowed.
It's an odd handset on paper, but having spent a week working on this Samsung Galaxy S21 review, we’ve found it to be a highly capable phone that's a pleasure to use, despite a couple of specs being dropped from previous handsets, notably the Galaxy S20 from 2020. Samsung’s made a few cuts to the Galaxy S21 that make it feel less “flagship” than past Samsung hero phones. Samsung used the same material on the Galaxy Note 20, but the matte finish feels more suitable here and it’s much less shiny than the glass rear on the Galaxy S20, which means it’s less of a fingerprint magnet.
