What the critics say (scores are out of 100)
Neowin | Rajesh Pandey The firm might be heavily promoting the Galaxy S21 Ultra and its 108MP primary camera, but it is the Galaxy S21+ which is the star of the show for me. It is not too big, offers great performance and battery life, packs a competent camera setup, and offers all this at a pretty reasonable price tag for a flagship smartphone. Read full review |

Pocket-lint | Chris Hall This is a great phone for those looking for a big screen Samsung experience and who don't want the ultimate zoom camera included. Read full review |
|
NotebookCheck | Manuel Masiero Just like its Galaxy S21 siblings, the Galaxy S21+ also offers excellent performance, but aside from the larger form factor and battery, there is practically no difference to the Galaxy S21 Read full review |

phoneArena | Peter Kostadinov The Galaxy S21 has its compact size going for it, whereas the Galaxy S21 Ultra has all the fanciest and most advanced tech in Samsung's arsenal. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S21+ is... just an oversized Galaxy S21 with a larger battery. There's no signature feature that makes it stand out. Read full review |
|
The Indian Express | Anuj Bhatia The Galaxy S21+ has a new design language, a smooth 120Hz display, a powerful 5nm chip, long battery life, and capable cameras. In my opinion, the Galaxy S21+ fixes all the issues the last-gen Galaxy S20 series had, and I am glad Samsung addressed those issues. Read full review |

NextPit | Benjamin Lucks The Galaxy S21+ is far better compared to the Galaxy S20+, I wouldn't advise anyone who owns the predecessor to pick one up. There are just too few new features and the missing microSD slot and a lower resolution display surely work against it. Read full review |
|
Firstpost | Nimish Sawant The S21+ is a great device but doesn't have any standout features which would make it an easy recommendation. Read full review |
|
Tom's Guide | Jordan Palmer The Galaxy S21 Plus sits in a weird spot between the Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S21 Ultra, but it features almost everything good about the regular S21 in a bigger package. Read full review |
|
Android Authority | Robert Triggs Despite the lack of microSD card, lower resolution display, and last-gen camera package, the Galaxy S21 Plus remains an excellent all-round smartphone in 2021. Samsung's Plus model is usually the standout yearly flagship, but this time it's awkwardly squeezed between a very affordable Galaxy S21 and the bleeding edge S21 Ultra. Read full review |

Mobile Syrup | Dean Daley It's not that you're going to have a bad experience with the S21+, it's just that there are better smartphone options currently available for less money. If you want the best, go for the S21 Ultra, and if you want to save some cash, wait for S20+ to go on sale -- and finally, if you really want to save some money, purchase the nearly as good and far cheaper Pixel 5.

T3 | Yasmine Crossland For anyone looking for a top-of-the-line Android phone with the most sophisticated features, we would recommend the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra. Having said that, the Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus is still an impressive handset that will satisfy the needs of most people, and at less than £950, it feels like pretty good value for money.

Trusted Reviews | Alastair Stevenson The Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus is a great Android phone with one of the best screens available right now. The only notable downside is that it doesn't offer a significant upgrade on last year's S20 Plus, making it a hard sell for those who have bought a new handset in the past few years.

TechRadar | Mats Karlsson The Galaxy S21 Plus is a superb phone on its own merits, but it offers little that you don't get with the regular, and cheaper, Galaxy S21, apart from its larger screen. But if screen size is a deal-breaker for you, and you're happy to pay a bit more for the extra real estate, then you'll be plenty satisfied with the middle sibling in the S21 family.

Expert Reviews | Nathan Spendelow ...The Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus are largely the same as they were for the S21. It's an astonishingly good, top-shelf handset, and it's a smartphone that should serve you well for the coming years, if you can afford it. Read full review |
|
The Guardian | Samuel Gibbs The Samsung Galaxy S21+ is a good phone but one totally overshadowed by a far better model that is very similar in dimensions â the S21 Ultra. Read full review |
|
Digital Trends | Andy Boxall he Galaxy S21+ 5G is a classier, bigger version of the S21, and while it has excellent quality, it doesn't drastically improve on the S20+, or reach the heights of the S21 Ultra. Read full review |
