Wish you could buy Samsung’s Galaxy S21 Ultra for prices closer to the standard peers? You now have your chance. Samsung sells the S21 Ultra with 128 GB storage for $ 900 if you enter the code GALAXY100 – this is the lowest price we’ve seen (even better than recent sales), and lower than what you would normally pay for an S21 + model. It also does not include the $ 250 in immediate credit for accessories.
Buy Galaxy S21 Ultra from Samsung – $ 900
This can be an easy choice. The Galaxy S21 Ultra is designed to be Samsung’s flagship without compromise, and it shows – you’ll get fast performance, a vibrant display and an exceptional camera range with multiple zoom options. There is even S Pen support to help you take notes. Collect it with software enhancements, and it’s one of the most well-rounded phones we’ve seen, especially if you’re a budding mobile photographer.
There are some reservations. Like other Galaxy S21 models, the Ultra no longer has expandable storage. The 128 GB in this model would be good for everyday use, but you should give up the full discount and buy a higher capacity if you expect to record 8K videos or upload apps and media. And no, the S Pen functionality does not make it a complete replacement for a Galaxy Note. You will still miss remote control with the current stylus, and you will need to purchase a special case if you want a comfortable hold for the pen. If you can forgive these limitations, however, the S21 Ultra is a powerful device.
