S10 to S21/plus or Ultra

Callum91 · 27 Oct 2021 at 13:18

Currently using a s10 (which has been great for the last couple of years) but looking to upgrade to a S21.
But unsure which model to go for, I want a bigger screen but is the ultra worth the premium over the plus ?

Cheers

Hi Callum, welcome to the forum.

Are you 100% set on the S21, does it have to be a Samsung?

Not 100% set on Samsung, was interested in the Pixel 6 and Pro but didn't know if they are worse or better options.

Aren't the newer Samsungs now rammed with adverts and whatnot? Or has that now been patched/opted out? It's one of the things that really put me off going Samsung past my current S9+.

Samsung Health used to have annoying rolling ads until very recently but they seem to have been removed.

The main area where I see an ad is every time I go to the Galaxy Store with an ad for a game on every visit.

I don't recall seeing ads in other apps but I do use DNS66 (VPN) to block general ads in apps.

The Samsung browser has the option to use very effective ad blockers.

I also didn't sign up to the various 'experience' options that they try and con you into accepting.

I don't get much in the way of that on my S21U... but I also disable/ignore/remove most of the branded BS apps that come with the darn thing anyway.
