2-minute Review [Positives]	N/A	Looks sleek and eye-catching with its iridescent finish - the plastic back has this rainbow-like effect The front looks trendy with minimal screen bezels and an unobtrusive hole-punch in the top-left corner Samsung has gotten the software part on point with its recent launches, with it's new One UI, that's now one of the better, more streamlined Android skins around - it's especially well suited for big displays like this, packs an intuitive gesture navigation system, and other useful things like a convenient 'dark mode' Good quadruple-camera array - a primary 48MP lens, supported by an 8MP ultra-wide angle unit, 2MP macro camera and a 2MP depth sensor The Galaxy A21s manages to take a pretty good picture from the primary camera - it produces wonderfully detail-rich images with plenty of vibrancy Live Focus mode (portrait mode) allows adjusting the level of blur either before, or after, you press the shutter button, and the results are good Macro mode is also a lot of fun - it captures some crisp closeups Excellent battery life with the 5000 mAh cell - combined with a low-res screen and a power-efficient CPU, it would easily last you for 2 days of moderate use Supports 15W fast charging
2-minute Review [Negatives]	N/A	Average 6.5-inch TFT LCD - the HD resolution is rather low for a phone at this price, and the colour reproduction isn't great The Galaxy A21s is powered by Samsung's new Exynos 850 chipset, which gets things done and that's about it - it doesn't compete with the powerful processor other phones offer and heavy games are a no go Overall, the Galaxy A21s has quite capable cameras, though they aren't the class-leading On the whole, while the Galaxy A21s is a fashionable choice for the price bracket, and does exceptionally well with battery life and a decent set of cameras - however, it falls a bit behind in terms of performance and display - you will find better all-round options from the likes of Xiaomi, Realme and Motorola
