Really Love the Build of this Phone 🥰
Had order a 256GB Phantom Black version on Tuesday & it delivered very fast on Thursday on the exact day I have the day off on. I recommend to not use the charger they give you for free, if you have some extra money highly recommend you to buy the usb c to usb c wall fast charger plug to get the full experience of your feature of the product. Phone came in really great condition also was unlocked just like it describe. For my petty complaint I wish I didn't have to go through FedEx if I choose a seller that has Amazon Prime I rather get it delivered by Amazon not FedEx because they don't know how to get access to our gates most of time and the listing of the product has a error when you select the 256GB version of this, I was worrying to much lucky a Amazon employee break it down all to me. So yes I got the product I always wanted the new Galaxy phones even if it's three years old I love the new build quality of the S21 series & higher so glad to own one. Coming from a Galaxy S20 FE to a Galaxy S21 Plus was worth it, even if I losses the ability to put in a Micro CD card slot.

It was time so the timing was right when I dropped my Note 10 Plus and it shattered. Ordered the S21 Plus because quite frankly it was priced nicely, and I no longer needed a stylus. This phone does all that I need with ease. Takes great photos, loads fast, 5G is great. Only complaint, that can be had with most new(er) phones is the lack of an auxiliary port...BT it shall be. You really can't go wrong with this if you are looking to get off cheap, rather than spend $1000 just to use Facebook and take pictures.

I decided to wait a few days before writing my review...and my phone came from RE-CELL.

First off, I ordered this the Friday before Labor Day. Estimated arrival date was the following Friday. They shipped it the VERY NEXT DAY (Saturday). So, I had high hopes of getting it early. I was pleasantly surprised to get it on Tuesday!

The condition was amazing. Not a scratch on it! I went into the phone info to confirm it actually was the s21+ with 256GB storage....and it is. I bought black because it was cheapest and I was getting a case anyway. It came with a charging cord, wall plug, and the tool to open the SIM card door.

No issues with setting up and it's unlocked so I saw the change right away in my phone plan.

Battery lasts all day with lots of use, unlike my old phone. I also appreciate that it was packaged snugly to avoid damage during delivery.

Great phone and great job by RE-CELL on the fast delivery! Definitely recommend.

The Samsung S21+ in Phantom Black has lived up to the hype and then some. As my first dive into Samsung's lineup, I'm thoroughly impressed by the value this phone offers. It boasts a slew of high-tech features without a hefty price tag, striking a perfect balance between cost and performance. The high refresh rate is a game-changer for screen smoothness, making every scroll and swipe a pleasure. Combined with a top-tier camera, capturing moments in stunning clarity has never been easier. It's a solid choice for anyone looking to enjoy the latest in smartphone tech without overspending, proving once again why Samsung stands out in the crowded Android market.

This is a really good phone. Operates as expected. 07/06/2023

Update 07/31/2023: This phone is fantastic and operates as if it were right out of the box new. VERY pleased with purchase, A++ seller. Only issue I have is not with the seller or Amazon but the Samsung supersonic fingerprint reader. I tried 4 different glass protectors and ONLY Whitestone Dome works 95% of the time vs 0%-40% with all others. I upgraded from A53 5g and never had this issue with multiple different glass brands like with the S series. Don't waste time and money like I did, get Whitestone Dome glass only.

Being 80 years old and using a 12 year old phone = WOW.. The only thing I think, it don't do is read my mind..this is a "referb" by "Re-cell" and when I took to my carrier to transfer my old phone over they said it looked as good as the ones they had on display....Maybe if I was 25 and "hip" - it wouldn't be so great but, I would recommend this phone to ANYBODY !!!!!!

I've only had it for 24 hours but it seems to work OK. The only issue I have with it is that you can't add additional memory with a microSD card like you could with the S20+5G. One other thing, I use the dashdroid app and it has a persistent advertisement across the top of the screen that I didn't have on the S20. I haven't found a way to get rid of that yet.
