Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus - Unboxing and First Impressions

Yo: what's up everybody, it's your boy floss back again with another video, and today we're going to do a quick unboxing of the Samsung Galaxy s, 21 plus 5g. Now you can pick this one up online I'll, throw the link-up in the description. The price on this one starts at one thousand bucks. Now, if you want more storage, you're going to pay more money all right. So let's go through the specs real quick. Now this is a 5g phone.

All right, five gangstas unlocked for all your carriers comes in five different colors. You got phantom black phantom gold, phantom violet phantom silver and phantom red for the display. You got a 6.7 inch, dynamic AMOLED panel with a resolution of 1080 by 2400, that's 394 for the PPI patrol. Furthermore, you got HDR 10, plus the phone goes up to 1300 nits brightness. Furthermore, you got gorilla glass v, that's the strongest gorilla glass on the market on the front and on the back and a 120 hertz refresh rate.

Now the phone is also ip68 dust and water resistant for the processor got the Qualcomm snapdragon 888 with the arena 660 GPU. Now? What does that mean in English flagship, specs, bro flagship specs? Now it's running android 11 with Samsung one UI 3.1 skin? On top, you got 8 gigs of ram 128 or 256 gigs of storage, no micro SD card slot for expandable memory. You've got a 4 800 ml battery that features 25 watt fast charge, 15 watt, fast wireless charge and 4.5 power; shell, all right, 4.5, watt power shield; that's reverse wireless charging for the cameras on the rear. You got a triple setup. Furthermore, you got a 12 megapixel wide angle, 64 megapixel telephoto, with a 12 megapixel ultra-wide on you on the front.

Furthermore, you got a 10, megapixel wide angle, lens the rear camera shoots up to 8k video right. Furthermore, you heard that right, 8k video, the front camera shoots up to 4k video. Now you got dual stereo speakers: Bluetooth, 5.0, NFC, always on display, face unlock on screen fingerprint sensor and Samsung DEX and my favorite feature wireless decks. Alright. So what's missing for my flagship checklist, nothing! What's missing! For my petty checklist, no quad HD display no expandable memory, no IR blaster and no headphone jack.

That's just whacked! Hashtag bars all right, so all of that for 1000 bucks, lets unboxing and see what it is. First things: first shout out to white shoes back in the building, calm down, you all see I'll, be trying to aim directly for the poor. Now I should respect the poor calm down all right. Here we go. Let me grab a little unboxing knife.

I shoe watch some whiskers all right. We got the little one on deck today. Here we go see if I can get it in there nice and deep, like a gentleman one more wow. Okay, now I went with the uh phantom silver on this one and if you will notice, the box is pretty thin because there's something missing no charger in the box, all right. So let's open this up real quick.

So I can show you all what I'm talking about all right there. It is inside it's going to be your flick of the wrist paper. All right get that out the way all right. This is going to be your phone. This is going to be your sim ejection tool.

Let's see what else you get USB type-c charging cable. Let's just make sure okay USB type-c to USB c. This is going to be your usual books and plug them in follow them. Take out the uh sim ejection tool file that into your pocket, flicker the wrist and that's it now. Let me say this when I unbox the galaxy s21 ultra 5 gangsters.

I didn't really talk about the no charge in the box situation, because that was a gift from Samsung, so I had to be respectable. Now I did order my own s21 ultra we're going to unbox this in a minute. So let me address this no charge in the box situation. A lot of people been asking me. How do I feel about that? Well, if you've seen my iPhone 12, unboxing video, you know what I'm getting ready to say all right: apple Samsung, all of these companies selling 1 000 phones and not giving us the minimum a case in the box, a screen, protector, headphones and a goddamn charger.

Alright, stop it! I don't like this man and the thing that makes it even more disappointing to me is because you all know how I feel about Samsung. I love Samsung, but apple. Look. You expect that from them. Alright apple is all about Mickey Mouse cash grabs trying to get suckers to spend money.

That's what apple is all about, but Samsung they different. They usually provide good service for the customers. Now. The thing that makes it worse is Samsung actually had the audacity to come out clown and apple for removing the charger and then do the same. All right.

I don't like that now. I know some of you all getting ready to say: oh, you know they doing it for the environment, man, the environment, all right now, let me just let me stop I'm just kidding. Furthermore, I don't really care about the environment, but look man when you buy shoelaces when you buy sneakers, you want the shoelaces. Furthermore, I don't care how many shoelaces you got at home. When you go out to eat tightly, you go out to eat, you got forks at home.

You don't bring your forks with you when you go out to eat you order food from outside everybody got forks in the house, but you pay for a food delivery. You want the forks and the spoons, I don't care, how much food fire, forks and spoons you got in your house. Basically, what I'm trying to say is. I don't give a how many charges I got in the house all right, I'm not paying for what I got in the house, I'm paying for what I bought from the store. Now.

This is what I bought from the store. I want the charger now. The thing that the thing that kills me also is a lot of you all got chargers at home. That's not going to fast charge. These new phones, you all got five watt charges 15 watt charges.

This is 25 watt fast charging all right. So if you got your old 15 watt, fast charging, brick you're not going to be able to take full advantage of fast charge. Now shout out to companies like Xiaomi all right. This is a Xiaomi mi 11, which is arguably we're. Going to have to do some testing, but this might be arguably a better buy at 700 bucks.

But the thing I respect about them is: when you buy the phone they give you an option. Do you want a charger, or you want to be on some environmental friendly tree hugging hippie and save the charger now the thing about this phone? Is it has 55 watt fast charging? So if you click that box, like yeah, I want the charger. Bang, you get a 55 watt, fast charger with the phone. This is what I'm talking about all right, give us the option to say: look. Maybe we want the charger.

Maybe we don't me, I want the charger, I don't know about you all. I want the charge. I don't give a. If I'm not going to use it or not. I want the charger all right, I'm sorry! I had to get that off my chest now with that being said, all right with all that being said, this phone is so sick.

Let me do a smell test. Real quick. This one smells like a fresh slab of titanium all right if you ever held a slab of raw titanium. In your hand, this is what it's going to feel like. This is so sick, not okay with none of you all say this new camera back the way they made.

It looks to me is the best that Samsung came out with, yet now I'm going to show you all last year's versions, you better judge for yourself. Look how streamlined this looks. It just looks more sleek, especially if you get the Wesley snipes Michael Blackstone, Amistad, black version of the s21 ultra five gangsters, which is arguably not even arguably, nobody can't even argue right now. This is the phone of 2021 right. This is the best phone of 2021 so far, even better than my galaxy z4 2, because it has a better processor.

Now, the z-fold too, that's a whole other beast, but in 2021 this is it right here all right, Amistad Wesley snipes, Michael black's than black bong check this one out now, glass on the back. There's your camera system. Let's get the little plastic I just noticed. Can I get that off hold up see now? That's what I'm saying no screen protector. Now a lot of you all bought last year's version like oh, that was the screen, but this ain't, no goddamn screen protector.

All right! This is pre. This is packing film. If you're walking around with this on your phone as a screen protector, when I see you I'm going to slap you all right now, I'm not going to do that. I'm not going to do that! I'm just talking! Furthermore, I have to do that now. Furthermore, I know some of you all also like oh, why you're cursing so much in the video, because all right, like I said when I get for free, I got to be a gentleman when I drop a thousand bucks on something, and I don't like something about it.

You all need to know how much I don't like it and if I just say oh, I really wish they would have put a charge in the box. You all might be like okay, maybe you don't really care about that? No, I care all right. I care that's a little wipe down on this one power it up. I know I know front facing camera. Alright little punch hole status.

Let's get a little boot up, animation, see what it looks like in the meantime. While that's moving up, we also got two pair Galaxy Buds pro, and I did a full review on these. I'm feeling these, not god, tear active noise cancellation. It's all right tier, active noise cancellation, but these are dope. I actually got two pair brand-new ones.

Anybody wants these hit me up in the comments. Make me an offer all right, not the crackhead offer make me a decent offer. You know what I'm saying. Let me wet my beak a little, and we also got two more Samsung smart tags. Now, when I do my full review, I'm going to show you how these work.

These are sick right. If you're somebody like me that always comes in the house and drops your keys, one place drops them another place the next day. This is a godsend. Uh you're, gonna love these. I love when you can't find something like, for instance, your keys.

You hit the little alert on your phone. This should start ringing, bong you're, never going to have that problem same thing, you drop your keys outside your car drop them in the backseat of your car. Whatever all right put the put these around your pets, your pet's color. Now I was going to throw one of these on white shoes, so I can monitor her activities. Maybe I will maybe I will that'll be a nice little thing to try out all right here we go.

Here's the front, 6.7 inch, dynamic, dynamic, dynamic, AMOLED panel, dynamic. That might be that might be a new, a new screen to come out with next year. Samsung. You can have that for free all right if you all want the dynamic panel for next year. Hit me up I'll, get you that for free, let's do a quick unboxing! Let me grab um, let's grab something.

Let me grab my big unboxing knife for this one got the big spider-man joint, let's open this up, real, quick one more okay! Now this is my retail version of the flick of the wrist galaxy s21. Ultra 5 gangsta, now no reason to go through the box. Everything is the same. No goddamn charges hold up. Now I didn't have that experience.

When I got the uh review unit, it didn't have the plastic over that hold. On a second look, oh, I know, look man. It's been a lot of debate on Instagram, a lot of people say: oh, I don't know about the black. I don't know about that boy. Let me tell you something: let me tell you something this right here.

This looks like some military. This, like you ever watch those like mission, impossible movies, and they have a briefcase, and you open a briefcase and some computer inside the briefcase. This looks like some that Tom Cruise will pull out the briefcase and be like this is the only phone that can stop the nuclear nuclear nuclear explosion. Just got the nuclear codes on it. This shit'll be in the box and pull the out and be like.

Oh, yeah. Okay, this is the phone everybody coming to kill you for look at this. They did this one right, all right, all black everything black on black Michael Blackstone, black. You know, I'm saying this is for real right here, all right, so I'm going to set this one up. I'm going to use this to do my full review in about two days, because basically I just want to make sure that there's no difference between the review unit and the retail unit.

Now I use the review unit for two weeks straight. No issues with it at all. This phone is a certified monster, but I'm going to use the retail version for a couple of days and do the same tasks all the same that I was doing with this one just to make sure they're exactly the same, then I could give you all my full review in the meantime, while I'm doing that tomorrow, we'll do some case. Videos get it popping. Let's get a little wipe down one more time which one I like better, the silver or the black.

Now another thing that I respect about Samsung this year is coming out with more colors. Only thing that I don't like about that is. I really wanted the phantom red, but it says about four to six weeks. You know to get that one made now I don't know about you all, but four to six weeks in the phone game. That's like about four to six weeks in the phone game is like six months in a regular game.

All right, you can't be waiting for four to six weeks for a phone six weeks from now. They might have the 11 ultra. They might have the lg v70. Then q, you know what I'm saying who knows. What's going to come out in the next four to six weeks, nobody got time to be waiting like that.

I have to make a commitment and buy the right now so once I get it if they come out with the eleven ultra, then I might have to trade, or I might just buy oh well, who cares but waiting four to six weeks. That's a no-go all right! That's a no-no! All right! So let me pause the video real, quick I'll do a little size comparison, and we'll wrap this one up. I want to keep this short and sweet talk amongst yourselves all right, so real quick. I want to show you how something that just made me hate this no charger even more now, I'm getting ready to plug in my phone just now using this 55 watt charger that I got from Xiaomi and I just remembered that a lot of the chargers that you got at home already are going to be USB a with a plug. On the other end, the cable that comes with your new galaxy is going to be USB type-c to USB type-c.

So if you haven't upgraded your phone in a year or two you're not going to have the compatible charger, I don't like that now I just happen to look over to the left of me. I got a thousand phone boxes. I said. Let me grab one of these old galaxy boxes and see what's inside and check this out. I found a galaxy box that looks pretty much brand new, so we open this up, let's see, what's in here: okay usual books and sim ejection tool.

That's cool! Look at this see this one! I'm talking about this is how phones used to come. Here's your charger, which, if you had a Galaxy S9, and you upgraded galaxy, s9 plus, and you upgrade into the galaxy s21 plus you're, not going to be able to use this charger. I had this USB a to plug. Okay, remember they used to give you the OTG number, all the fancy packing look at this used to get headphones in the box. To check this out.

Let's see which ones are these now did this phone have USB type-c? No, this is when they still had a headphone jack. So you got a nice set of quality, headphones AKG status, and you got your USB a to USB type c charging cable. This is how you used to get a presentation from Samsung compared to this Mickey Mouse. Look at this. First, look at the difference in the size of the box.

Look how the box opened up. Remember you first, you took the sleeve off. This is important that you all need to listen to. Remember you used to take the sleeve off hold up. Let's, let's recreate that one more time remember, you spent seven eight nines.

Whatever amount of 100 bucks you spent, you got your phone at home. You took that sleeve off, you are like, then you was greeted by a little Samsung brand, and then you had a little flat look at presentation. I know to a lot of you all presentation, don't mean nothing and you all might think you don't mean nothing to me because I always beat through the packaging boom rip it all over. The place. Presentation means a lot now to me: it ain't it.

It doesn't have the same effect that it used to have, because I do it so much, but to a lot of you all presentation, including me, like certain that I buy, I still enjoy the presentation this one right here, you get it you get this one. Let's see all you do open it up and there's your phone. Nothing else in the box come on that come on. Let's keep it, let's keep it real. That's that's! Corny! Look! Look at this yo! Look at this! You had all of this in the box which, which some of this argument negates itself, because you notice I had the box with all little stuff.

In it is so yeah, I had charges, that's going to waste, but it's not about the environment, because even me, somebody that has a thousand charges lying around all over the place. Why would I throw this away and I never threw this away and I still ain't gonna, throw it away. I'm going to go like this. I'm going to take this right here. Furthermore, I'm going to plug it in, and I'm going to throw it in a big drawer that everybody got especially real tech heads all your tech heads.

You got a shoebox, or you got that drawer that cabinet with a bunch of cables like this. So now, next time I go on vacation, I'm gonna. Take this, throw it in my bag, then, when I'm packing from that vacation, if I leave it in a hotel or whatever leave it on the flight, who cares but nobody's gonna just take this and throw it at home in the garbage nobody's doing that. Nevertheless, I digress. Let's do a little size comparison all right, so we back in now.

Let's do a quick size comparison with all the Samsung flagships. So here's last year's galaxy s20 all right. This is the small one and here's this year's galaxy s21. Now this is the only version that has the plastic back, which I will say. I am definitely feeling all right.

It doesn't feel like cheap plastic and on a side note, this might be the future right here all right. If you could get a plastic back, that feels like glass, it's going to be more durable, and it still has wireless charge and reverse wireless charge. Why not get the plastic back alright? This might be the wave right hand, Samsung, keep working on this technology. Just get the phone a little heavier and nobody's going to notice the difference all right so for size comparison. These are basically the same size now.

One thing that I did want to mention: I didn't bother ordering a retail version of the s uh the s21, because these phones are just too small. For me, it's going to be a waste, I'm never going to use it right same thing. I bought this one. I used it for about a day, and it goes in that big tech drawer with all the cables and charges all right, so here's a little size comparison again same size. Now.

Here's last year's galaxy, s20, plus here's, the s21 plus 5g five gangsters. Let's see basically the same size, same width both of these got the glass backs. You see how shimmery this one is you see that prism? If the prism, color versus the matte? Look, honestly. I like the matte, look way better because you're getting reverse fingerprints, all right, negative fingerprints, yo, reverse fingerprints, oh okay, so you all see for yourself all right. So if you have last year's s20, that's 20, plus x21 plus, if you had last year's s20 plus this year's s21 plus, is gonna, feel the same all right same height, same width.

Now, here's the big boy s21 ultra five gangsters and here's last year's s20 ultra five gangsters, let's see same height, same width, but look at the looks now I was a fan of the square camera on this one. I just didn't like the big 100x zoom, all right. You know we already know what it is all right. We got the scumbag zoom, you don't need to write the all over the phone we already we spent a thousand dollars. We know we got it all right.

We know it's there, I'm not a big fan of unnecessary branding, and they did it right, keep it nice and clean. This looks sick right now, that's 20! Let's, let's do this year's joints. Okay, now these are almost the same height. The ultra is a little taller all right, so these are two big size: phones, here's the s20 fan edition. Let's see almost the same height as 21, plus a little taller.

Here's the Galaxy Note 20. I think these should be the same height yup. These are exactly the same height. Okay. I just like that camera set up a little better, even though it does look tough on this one though okay and here's, the big boy Galaxy Note 20 ultra five gangsters, let's see now this one is a little taller.

This one is a little taller now out of all of these Samsung phones. As of right now, the champ is the s21 ultra all right. This is the new champ, because you got the s pen capabilities. Now a lot of people was asking me: why didn't show the uh s pen cases they're not available in the US yet, and I ordered both of them. They come February 22nd.

If you can get a case and have your s pen attached to this phone, it's going to make it better than your Galaxy Note 20 why snapdragon 88, so now this is a newer processor, newer chipset. So that means naturally that this is going to be the new champ and as far as looks this is the new champ in the looks department. Also, this is actually the new champ in the looks department out of all the new phones out right now, all right now they should have come out with that all black on this one. Do they have it? I don't know. Maybe they do.

I don't even bother to look. I don't know if it's the same black, it might be, it might be. Maybe I ordered this one since I already ordered the black. That seems like something that I would do, but this one right here in red this is sick, though anyway Samsung Galaxy, s21, plus 5g, all right. The g stands for gangsta hit me up in the comments.

Let me know what you all think about this and um. Like I said tomorrow, I'm going to do the speaking cases, then, after that I'm going to do a compilation, video with UAG spec tech, 21, VRS, otter box, cosmology mouse and whatever else you all want to see. Now again, this is your last chance. If there's anything specific, you want me to cover during the real review. We'll talk about that now.

A lot of people are saying that you can't use the uh MST was that MTR you know to pay like the credit card. I have to test that out. I heard they took that away. Honestly. Furthermore, I never used that right, I'm old school, I'm old school like when I buy something from the store.

Furthermore, I like to pull out my card hand it to the person charge it to the game. Now, look I know I got to get to the new school. Sooner or later I have to start, you know using my phone to tap and pay personally, like I said I just like to pull it on my credit card, but I'll check that out the Noah. Is it called MST or MTS? I don't know, but a lot of people saying they don't like that. A lot of people saying that they want me to talk about the no micro SD card slot.

I don't like that either. A lot of people still want me to talk about the no way to force it into 120 hertz, refresh rate, which there is a way you could do that. You know saying it's just it's not native. You just have to go tweak a little developer options, and you can force it to stay at 120 hertz, but it should be just a regular setting. A lot of people want me to talk about that too, and a lot of people want me to talk about the pricing situation right because 1 000 bucks, like I said, 1 000 bucks, and you could get the Xiaomi mi 11 for 700 bucks.

This is a. This is a valid argument that we're going to have to have all right. We're going to have to talk about this. You can't just brush this one under the rug all right. This is glass back wireless charge, reverse wireless charge, 55 watt fast charging more than this one IR blaster, even though this one has wireless decks, that's the thing that cancels Xiaomi and Samsung out, because I know I said this a lot of times.

Xiaomi is coming for the crown they're going to be the new champ in a minute because of the IR blasters, and all that the one thing that keeps Samsung above them is the decks and the wireless decks. Now, if you never use that, then you probably don't know what I'm talking about, which I'll show you during my full review, but that's how they kind of offset each other so which one do you think is more important having an IR blaster, which I love or the wireless decks, which I actually love a little more all right. If I had to make a choice between wireless decks and IR blaster, I'm going with wireless decks, that's basically rolling around with a laptop and a phone in your hand. At the same time, it's crazy this is if it's crazy, but anyway, like I said, if there's anything else specifically, I want me to talk about Galaxy Buds. I already did the full review so no need to even go there again, the smart tags I'll talk about those two and anything else that you can think of hit me up in the comments.

Let me know what you all think about these shout-outs, everybody rocks with me on Facebook, foursquare, Twitter, google plus shout out to all the Google gangsters.
