![]() I don't use any of the Samsung services. I use Gmail, Google messages, contacts, photos, calendar, play store and files etc. The Samsung store is useless just full of a load of rubbish. I just use it for watch faces for my Galaxy Watch 3. I sometimes use Samsung internet but that's it.

![]() I don't use any of the Samsung crap -- I basically turn it into a Google pixel the first day I get it. Sent from my SM-N975W using Tapatalk

![]() So after a couple of weeks very impressed. Paired the buds live and they're great with excellent voice for calls and everything for music. The free tile is great too, easy set up. Battery life on phone is OK it does fast charging which it didn't seem to do straight off. Got a new firmware update today improving the camera and Google February security update so all good. Enjoying it immensely. Sent the old S20 back and upgrade programme emailed me to say all is fine and they're paying off old contract. Very happy.

![]() Just got the regular S21 with 256GB storage. So far so good but I'm gonna miss the S8 with the Oculus Gear VR (doesn't work with the S21. Fits, but no function). What's weird is if I load up a YouTube video and turn VR on I could actually watch in VR mode with the S21 in the headset (just can't control anything with it). Wondering if someone has figured out how to make the Oculus VR portal work on the new S21.... |

![]() Got mine 2 months ago, it's a S21 Ultra 128GB with the Exynos processor (no Snapdragon available in Peru). So far I love it, it's insanely fast, the screen is superb and the battery last a lot. Also, the camera is great.

![]() Nice! Samsung phones always have great cameras...I frequently get comments on the quality of pics taken by my S21 (mine's the standard one). |

![]() Got myself an S21 128GB. Very happy with it. Coming from a '17 Motorola Moto G5 Plus, that shouldn't surprise anyone. ![]()

![]() Android 12 landed on my S21 Ultra today. so far so good, seems a bit faster, more polished. The camera software looks better.

![]() I was on the beta programme in the UK so I've had UI 4.0 (Android 12) for a while. As I'm on the Samsung upgrade programme I'll most likely pick up the S22 on launch day. Might go for the plus version this time around.

![]() So, I asked Samsung about the upgrade program to upgrade my S21 Ultra to S22 Ultra. It turns out, they only give me around $700 for my phone and the new one is around $1700. So, no thanks, will still use mine that's working fine... ![]()
