Features that matter

Life is a series of moments. Why not make them beautiful? Take your photos and videos to an incredible new level with multiple, cutting-edge ways to capture life exactly as it is, or turn it into a work of art. Combined with Verizon 5G, and you have the perfect tool for creating and sharing your story to the world. Here are some of the best features of the Galaxy S21 series.

Samsung’s best-in-class camera experience: Samsung is known for its brilliant smartphone cameras and the S21 line-up is no different. Improved 8K Snap lets you grab crystal clear images from your 8K video footage, so you can capture all the live action and get standout still shots every time you hit record. Even in fast-moving or bumpy conditions, your footage will be buttery-smooth with Super Steady video at an improved 60fps³.The new 108 megapixel pro sensor on the S20 Ultra’s camera improves on resolution clarity and light sensitivity, so it works better no matter what lighting condition you find yourself in.

On the video side, Samsung added Director’s View, multi-camera capabilities that capture images footage all lenses simultaneously, to create unique videos from angles you might not have considered (including front and rear capture at the same time). And, with Vlogger View, capture video on the front and rear cameras at once for real-time reactions. Paired with Samsung’s new Galaxy Buds Pro⁴, you can capture both ambient sounds and your voice at the same time using multiple mic recording⁵. That means you can set up Galaxy S21 on a tripod and use Buds Pro as your voice mic, so you can step away and record speech, movement and background sound in crisp quality. Single Take⁶ has also been improved, offering new styles and options to show off your favorite videos and images.

Ultimate design: Ultimate Innovation and Design: The Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G features a 6.8”2 Dynamic AMOLED 2X display — the most intelligent screen Samsung has ever made. For the first time ever, you no longer have to decide between the smoothness of a 120Hz refresh rate and a Quad HD+ display⁷. The screen’s refresh rate automatically adjusts from 10Hz to 120Hz to ensure you get the best image while saving battery. This is huge for gamers that need an upgraded experience for more immersive game play. Add in the ability to connect to 5G Ultra Wideband and you have access to incredible power and less lag — this is the way mobile gaming should be.

All three phones include intuitive blue-light management that adjusts based on time of day to keep your eyes happy. Watch, scroll and relive your best moments, all while the adaptive refresh rate helps to conserve your battery. On the outside, the all-new Contour Cut Camera housing that blends seamlessly into the metal frame will turn heads with an assortment of color that fits your vibe.

Performance and power: Built with 5G connectivity in mind, you can share, scroll, browse and binge in a flash⁸. With the latest and most advanced smartphone chipset yet in a Galaxy for greater speed, energy efficiency⁹, and advanced computing capabilities, Galaxy S21 packs all the power you need to process photos, record 8K videos, enjoy a cloud gaming marathon and make the perfect video clips. Catch every idea, nail that shot and share all your moments without slowing down. The Galaxy S21 5G series also intuitively manages your power usage to conserve energy on its own, so you can go all day without charging¹⁰. For business users, the Galaxy S21 series also includes seamless Microsoft integration¹¹ and Samsung Knox security. What’s more? You can even use your S Pen¹² to take notes on the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G.
