Round in a full 360º circle in 12 months more or less haha... :D

Sold my 1st S21 Ultra last July to get a Note 20 Ultra; sold that to buy an iPhone 13 Pro Max, sold that to get a Google Pixel 6 Pro and that went back to Amazon because of constant 5G/wifi connectivity issues & now back in an S21 Ultra 5G ;)

Only paid £400 UK Sterling for it; immaculate screen & cameras etc; but the top/bottom edges have a few marks; but Whitestone Dome screen protector installed and it's in an Otterbox case, you can't tell :)

It's just restoring now and charging too

Forgotten what a great size phone it is; can't wait to use the camera etc

Thought hard about buying an S22 Ultra; but the S21 Ultra does everything I need and at £400 it's a bargain really

I don't need an S Pen nor do I need to spend c£1k UK Sterling on a phone and then get buyers remorse afterwards haha (I've got the money but would rather spend that kind of money on new winter tyres for my car and get the winter alloys refurbed etc) ;)
 
I had the s21 before I went with the S22 ultra this time coming from the 13 pro it's a great device very similar to the S21 series. I like the ultra better than the standard S series devices. So far zero issues except beta issues which you have to except.

It's a superb phone!

I couldn't justify the extra £600 I'd have to pay to get the S22 Ultra when the S21 Ultra does all I need

No doubt I'll end up with the S22 Ultra at some point; I've even looked on Samsung UK to see what the trade in price is for the S21 Ultra for the S22 Ultra & Z Fold 4 and it's very handsome indeed ;)
 
I find the s22 ultra has a nicer screen then the 13 pro.


Not interested in the S22 Ultra TBH - only went for the S21 Ultra because I didn't want to spend c£1k UK Sterling on a phone

I've been fortunate enough to have quite a bit of money on my Apple account; so put that towards a new iPhone 13 Pro Max and got decent cash-back percentage too :)
 
No question it is , i do have the iphone 13 pro also but iPhone screen is pretty good.


Agree; I think the 13 Pro Max has a superb screen; perfect for my needs plus a superb camera to boot

Goes well with my M1 MBA, 11" M1 iPad Pro and Apple TV4 etc

They make top quality products Apple , I own iphones since iphone 3s
Guess I always had both platforms since that time .

Same; still have my immaculate/as new Pixel 4XL 128GB and it's a great back up device and still takes great pictures. But feels small now with its smaller screen compared to the iPhone 13 Pro Max and no 5G connectivity either!

IMO for tablets; the iPad is unbeatable too. I've tried Android tablets and just found them to be crap in comparison

Yeah still have my Pixel 4xl , I agree tablets Apple all the way , Samsung is making some decent ones lately .
 
I always felt the S21 Ultra was too heavy of a device. I sold mine when I bought my S22 plus. I love having a flat screen again and one where my hands don't get tired of holding it. I will say the phone was blazing fast and never experienced any lag or overheating. I wish I could say the same thing for this S22 plus. The camera lags whenever I open it and the wifi signal strength has been worse on it. It might be getting better though.

I still don't mind this phone as I got a good deal on it and the Tab S8 at launch. So the phone isn't my only device. If I didn't want the tablet so much I would have kept the S21 Ultra. It was a great phone.
 
This behavior sounds a bit like me lol I have sold and bought the same phones several times.
