Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G review


"
By the end of this review, we realized the good stuff far outweighs the bad, and most of what we didn't like could be fixed with an upcoming update."

This is the first reviewer I've seen mention it, but it seems like the shutter speed on the ultra could be lacking making for a poor experience with kids and pets. Gcam port is hopefully stable for the ultra.

@Guyinbox: I watched the video but never said the S21 Ultra lacking!

I'm wondering where you heard him say that?

First couple minutes of the video where he talks about not being able to capture moving subjects. Samsung has already said that the shutter on the ultra was slower than the regular 21, this is just confirmation that it will struggle in this scenario.

Samsung was talking about shutter speed, whereas the video was talking about shutter lag (due to autofocus lag in portrait mode). Those are different considerations.

It may explain why Samsung have just issued 2 updates in quick succession that both feature camera improvements...
