Samsung Galaxy S 21, S 21 + and S 21 Ultra are finally official. We knew practically everything about them but now we can reveal each type of detail, from the technical specifications, to the materials with which they were made passing through the sensors of their photographic compartments and then also and above all to the prices with which they will be sold from today, 14 January 2021, Here in Italy .

Let’s start with him immediately because he is the real protagonist of the scene. Samsung Galaxy S 21 Ultra is in fact the real top of the range of the series which is enhanced not only for its specifications but also and above all because it will allow you to use the smartphone at 360 degrees without neglecting anything.

It is designed for users who require top-of-the-line technology to keep in touch with people.

Hence a new style that Samsung declares bold and that it will surely distinguish it from other smartphones. Undoubtedly unique the housing for the photographic compartment merges seamlessly with the metal frame of the device, resulting in an elegant and striking design. Galaxy S 21 Ultra 5G is available in the colors Phantom Black and Phantom Silver and is coated with a matte finish that guarantees zero fingerprints and above all an excellent grip. And then there is also greater resistance thanks to the Corning Gorilla Glass Victus, the most resistant glass ever.

On a technical level the new Galaxy S 21 Ultra 5G is the largest model in the Galaxy S series 21, with a 6,8 ” Dynamic AMOLED 2X display , the smartest screen in a Galaxy smartphone to date. For the first time, users no longer have to decide between the fluidity of a refresh rate from 120 Hz and a Quad HD + display: on Galaxy S 21 Ultra 5G are both available.

The screen refresh rate adapts to the displayed content, from 10 Hz a 120 Hz , ensuring the best possible viewing experience without compromising battery life. Compared to Galaxy S 20, S 21 Ultra 5G offers images equal to 25% brighter thanks to 1. 500 nit maximum brightness , the highest on a Galaxy smartphone.

In this case the Galaxy S 21 Ultra is the only one equipped with a quad rear camera (ultra wide angle, wide angle and dual telephoto) which features a new professional sensor from 108 MP , from which HDR photos can be acquired at 12 bit, with colors 64 times richer than the previous S 20 Ultra and over three times wider dynamic range. For the first time on a Galaxy smartphone, you can record in 4K at 60 fps with all lenses, including the front camera and the four rear lenses, so you can switch to a different perspective with the same image quality. Also, thanks to the RAW file option to 12 bit , you can keep all the details also for photo editing.
