The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra was one of the manufacturer's top-end smartphones at the time of release, when it launched with the Galaxy S21 range in early 2021. And it's still a fantastic phone by anyone's standards.
It's the second of Samsung's relatively new 'Ultra' edition, which has effectively replaced its Note series, with high-end specs and top-quality features.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra was released in the UK on the 29th January 2021 and is still widely available from many providers.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra was the top end of the chain when it launched in 2021. Samsung doesn't sell it directly anymore, but you can pick it up on refurbished phone sites for £400-600.
At the time of launch, it was the biggest and best of the S21 series. This made it the most expensive at £1,149 - but its value has now come down as more editions of the Galaxy series have released.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra comes in phantom black and phantom silver.
The S21 Ultra is the biggest of the S21 range with a 6.8-inch WQHD+ screen, meaning it also has a higher resolution than the other two smartphones in the S21 range. It also has a smooth 120Hz display.
It includes a huge 108-megapixel lens, which is still top-quality more than two years later. And the rest of the camera array includes a 3x optical telephoto sensor and a 10x optical telephoto sensor.
The camera set up also includes a 100x 'space zoom' so you can get in closer to action than ever before.
In 2021, The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra was the one to go for if you wanted the biggest and best android phone you can get your hands on. It’s the Samsung equivalent to Apple's iPhone 12 Pro Max, which launched a few months prior.
However, if you want an even more up-to-date, high-spec version, this year's S23 Ultra might have more of what you need.
Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra vs Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max is an interesting comparison. Both phones are undoubtedly at the height of smartphone tech, with exceptional specs, fantastic cameras and eye catching design.
But often, this one comes down to personal preference. Some people only use iOS and that will likely never change, and vice versa for Android. If you’re in camp Android, the S21 Ultra is the phone for you.

The S21 Ultra has a massive 108-megapixel lens, a 3x optical telephoto sensor and a 10x optical telephoto sensor.
Even in 2023, this is a premium quality smartphone camera. But if you're after the best that handsets have to offer, a more recent S21 Ultra might be better for you.
