S21

I don't use one a lot either, but embedded inside the phone is the way to go, it's just there when you do need it, not at home by the bed.

I use my S-pen a couple time a day but my wife claimed she hardly used hers. She has since traded her Note 9 for an S21 Ultra and now she would often ask me for my S-pen to do some task. The joys of married life....

I made an unexpected visit to a local Bell store and finally got to try an S21 Ultra in the flesh. The good thing is that minus the camera experience, I found no reason to want to upgrade from my Note 10+. 120Hz did not feel like anything substantially better than my 60 Hz display, and I didn't experience any other-worldly improvement with the 240 Hz touch-sampling, either.

I'm glad I didn't let the hype spring me into ordering one after getting caught up in it. I still think the camera will be much better, but I can't justify the trade-off with all the features I would lose.

I also got to play around with the S21 and S21+ as well as the S20 FE. Surprisingly, I found the S20 FE's display to render text better than it's newer cousins. The text was both darker and crisper on the older model.

Totally agree with you, I have played also sometime with the S21 Ultra of a friend of mine.
Apart of the camera there are no other visible differences from the Note 10+
OK it has also a bigger battery.

I would not trade my Note for it but I am seriously impressed by the S21U. Camera is amazing along with the battery life. The 120hz screen feels very fluid when scrolling etc. Was really looking forward to getting all that goodness in a Note body later this year. Sadly we have to wait until next year.
Most reviews I've seen calls the S21U the best Android device out today, with very few compromises. My wife is super happy with it even though she has been buying Notes since the 4. If Samsung had just given it SD card support it would be the near perfect phone but still not for me. I need my built in S-pen thank you very much!
