SAMSUNG Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, US Version, 128GB, Phantom Black - Unlocked (Renewed)

I upgraded from my s20 ultra to this. I was a little worried buying used cause I've had not so good experiences previously, excellent condition I guess means different things to different people.. but this time was actually my best experience. The phone i got looks brand new, no it wasn't in original box, but the body has zero wear signs on it. Nothing. If it was put into a Samsung original box, I'd easily believe it's brand new. I switched over from my S20 ultra, transferred everything over, including my Esim, and within a few hours it was up n running as my new phone. And everything is working perfectly, cameras, sensors, screen, battery, everything. I'm loving it. I even found the exact same case I had, so it even kinda looks n feels like my old phone.This time it was a very positive experience. But of course beware every one could be very different

Finally pulled the trigger on getting a new phone. I used to use a Galaxy S8 (what I used to take the pictures) and it held together for a good 5 years. However time and wear had taken it's toll. Battery lasting 8-10 hours with light use, a few cracks to the screen, you get the idea.I decided to keep with Samsung as I rarely is ever have issues with them. I had an LG Stylo for less than a week before I went with the S8 after my S6. Found this deal. Advertised as 'Renewed - Excellent', and I knew what quality that would be as that's what my S8 was when I picked it up. So I went a little over budget to pay that premium. It wasn't quite worth it.Pros : Battery seems to be great, lasts about as long as the first ads for the S21 Ultra when it first dropped. It's now day 4 since I decided to test the battery and keep it off the charger. With light use, I'm still at 39%. The fingerprint scanner hasn't given me an issue yet, Audio quality on calls and playing music is better than I was expecting to be honest. The 5G is a lot better than the 4G I was at with my previous phone. The camera is working pretty well, though the 100x is a bit too blurry, but at 50x, for example, it's definitely usable. Screen quality still lives up to the hype, though I still need to tinker with the phone settings as the color seems a bit oversaturated. And, for a user of Boost Mobile, this has been the fastest switchover from phone to phone I've ever had. No calling in, no visiting a physical store, not even punching some numbers into an internet portal, just literally took the SIM from my S8, slid it into the new phone, and in seconds I was active. Even the Boost Mobile site had the updated phone information already registered.Cons: Here's where my praise kind of ends. As I said, it's not in Excellent condition. There are two noticeable scratches on the screen. On mid way up the phone from left to center that I can see at arm's length, and one in the lower right quadrant that I can see when the light hits it just right. At lest you can't see them with the screen on. Man, those two hard to get clear images of. I might not have noticed them if I didn't remove the ill-fitting screen protector with plans to replace it. There's some deformation in the bottom right corner as if that's where they used a metal tool to pry up the old screen. It's not sharp, but you definitely notice if you run your finger over it. The charge port is deformed as well. Slight bend on the rear side towards the front. Not enough to interfere with plugging it in, but it's there. And speaking of ill-fitting protections, the camera were covered with a piece of tape. Even after I removed it, it took more than a little work to clean off the adhesive that was left behind. They seller was 'nice' enough to include a cable and charger. The cable is a sub-standard 4 wire USB-A to USB-C. At least the data lines were connected so I could get SOME use out of it, but no chance of any change plugging it into a USB 3.0 port, as opposed to USB 2.0. The charger itself was a basic 5 volt 2.1 amp mini brick. I'm glad I already had the proper charger and cable so I could get the proper charging speed.So understand that you might not get what's advertised. According to Amazon's own policies, this should have been 'Renewed - Acceptable' at best. That $40 difference, from sellers providing the same, I could have put toward a case, proper screen protector, and maybe even a charge/cable bundle. Definitely not worth the full price I paid.

I just got mine and spent a full 24 hours with it. I really like the phone. It feels good and has so many great features. After system updating it like 8 separate time, it was easy to transfer all my stuff from my old android to this new phone. My only complaint is that the battery life is not the greatest, but I also use my phone a lot so it might just be me. I still learning this phone, but you can have 1 Sim and a few E Sims. There is a fingerprint sensor ingrained into the screen. Camera is decent. I'm not a camera expert but I'm satisfied. But yes great price, great phone. I hope I keep this for 3-5 years.

Item came in great condition, was hesitant at first but I am extremely pleased.. performance, quality everything point.. like brand new.. battery life excellent. fingerprint reader works sound quality extremely great.. value for money.. been using for about a month now no issues.

Este teléfono es una bestia. La cámara toma fotos increíbles, hasta de noche salen nítidas. La pantalla se ve brutal, súper fluida y con colores vivos. La batería me dura todo el día sin problema, y aunque lo uso bastante, no se calienta ni se traba. Va rápido en todo: apps, juegos, redes, lo que sea. Me encanta el diseño y el zoom de la cámara es una locura. Si estás pensando en cambiar de celular, este vale totalmente la pena.

I was worried about purchasing a phone from any online retailer, but the phone is exactly what I ordered, and is in pristine condition. I was easily able to swap SIM cards, and get everything converted. No issues!

I'm an Adroid fan because of freedom, headphone jacks, freedom, micro SD cards, and freedom. I love my S21 Ultra! Please tell me why did Samsung copy iPhone by taking away headphone jacks and micro SD cards.No headphone jacks [-1/2 star]: The waterproof seal was good enough on previous models. I would switch between Bluetooth and wired connections. I still do with an adapter as if I have an iPhone (ick).No micro SD card [-1/2 star]: I like having a ridiculous amount of storage. I was disappointed when I found no place to install the 256 GB card I bought. So the only way I can have more storage is buy a phone with more. Seems like a step backwards. This has no effect on waterproofing or other performance issues.

Very happy with this phone as I couldn't afford a new one. Got the pay plan on here and it works..affirm works
