Samsung Galaxy M21: Pros & Cons
8.2
out of 10
MSP Score
- Pros
- Bright Super AMOLED display
- Decent mid-range hardware
- Impressive rear cameras
- Runs on latest Android version
- Mammoth 6,000mAh battery for solid backup
- Cons
- No 90Hz refresh rate for display at this price
- Only 4GB RAM on offer
- Lower charging speeds than rivals
Verdict
Samsung Galaxy M21 is a hard-core mid-range device that offers a decent display, with an effective set of hardware, quality cameras and a decent battery backup. However, for this price, we expect phones to offer 90Hz refresh rate support these days, and a mere 4GB RAM might not work in favour of the power users. Also, the big capacity battery misses out on faster charging speed.
