The 6.8-inch large screen and the metal frame make it unfortunate

If the Galaxy S21 is a terminal to sell a lot, the’Galaxy S21 Ultra’ is a product to show that Samsung Electronics is the best terminal manufacturer. It was made by consolidating the current terminal technology of Samsung Electronics in one place without considering the price/performance ratio. It can be said that in the first half of this year there is no better Android phone. Apple’s’iPhone 12 Pro Max’ is the only competitor.
According to the reporter’s experience on the 17th, Ultra is a product with superior screen, camera, and next-generation communication compared to general and plus models.

Ultra provides a clearer picture quality by applying a new AMOLED organic material and structure to improve brightness and contrast ratio by 25% and 50%, respectively, compared to the previous version. Even with the high resolution of QHD+, the screen refresh rate automatically changes from 10Hz to 120Hz. Depending on the content, it provides the best viewing experience while extending battery life. Before, you had to choose between a smooth screen experience (120Hz refresh rate) and the best screen experience (QHD+ quality), but Ultra doesn’t have to. In addition, it supports up to 1500 nits of brightness, so you can check websites and messages without covering the display with your hand even in broad daylight.
In particular, Ultra supports the user’s favorite function’S Pen’ for the first time in the Galaxy S series. The S Pen, which was used on the existing Galaxy Note or Tab, can be used as it is on the 6.8-inch large screen Ultra. You can write, draw, and edit fine photos with the S Pen. The S Pen cannot be stored in the terminal and must be stored in the’Silicon Cover with S Pen’ sold separately.

There is also a big difference in camera function.
Ultra has a 180 million ultra-high-pixel wide-angle camera (F1.8, phase difference AF, OIS), a 12-megapixel dual-pixel ultra-wide-angle camera (F2.2, 120-degree angle of view), and two 10 million-pixel dual-pixel telephoto cameras (F4. It is equipped with a rear quad (4) camera of 9·10x zoom·OIS / F.2.4·3x zoom·OIS) and a 40 megapixel front camera (F2.2·phase difference AF).
This is the first Samsung smartphone to apply an optical 3x and 10x telephoto lens system. Even if you don’t approach a distant subject, you can zoom in and take pictures and videos as if you were in front of your nose. During video recording, you can naturally change the angle of view from ultra-wide to telephoto, allowing you to shoot more natural images.

The 180 million ultra-high-pixel new sensor developed by Samsung Electronics’ LSI division can capture 64 times richer colors and 3 times wider dynamic range in photos than before. By combining next-generation sensors and artificial intelligence technology, it preserves the details of the entire picture even in extreme situations where the picture is not properly taken, such as backlit photography.
In particular, when shooting in the Pro mode, images can be saved as 12-bit RAW files, so you can edit after shooting without losing any details. In addition, for the first time in a smartphone, Ultra supports 4K resolution shooting with 60 frames of both front and rear cameras.
The ability to shoot at night is also a strength. By merging 9 pixels into one pixel and applying’Nona Binning’ technology that absorbs more light, you can take bright pictures even in dark environments. With the bright night sensor and improved noise reduction, you can shoot fireworks and night views clearly and brightly.

Ultra is a product in preparation for technological change, such as the next generation communication technology that other terminals do not have.
Ultra supports’Wi-Fi 6E’, which provides faster internet speed, for the first time among smartphones. When Wi-Fi 6E is commercialized, it can be used immediately, and when used with 5G, games or streaming services can be enjoyed comfortably in more places. It also supports the’UWB’ function that makes Ultra into an IoT hub. Samsung Electronics plans to use UWB to help open and lock car doors with Ultra instead of car keys.
The Ultra looks like an enlarged Galaxy S21 except that the camera housing is a little thicker. Unlike the Galaxy S21, which has a flat display, it also features an edge display. All of the features installed in the Galaxy S21 can also be used in Ultra. In the case of the factory price, the 12GB and 256GB models cost 1.452,000 won, and the 16GB and 512GB models cost 1.599400 won. Due to the size of 6.8 inches and the metal frame, the weight of the handset is quite heavy at 227g, so it is recommended that you listen to it before purchasing and decide.
