These Samsung Galaxy S21 deals prove why Prime Days is worth waiting for
I'm so glad I waited, and you will be too, thanks to these unbelievable Prime Day deals on the Samsung Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S21 Plus. Prime Day smartphone deals have been pretty hot this year, and there's nothing like getting the hottest new phones for a couple of hundred bucks off!
Getting the latest Samsung phone for hundreds of dollars off the retail price - just four months after its launch - is an incredible feat that you don't often get to take advantage of. Last year, we saw similar discounts on the Galaxy S20 family for Prime Day, but Prime Day 2020 was in October, not June. That means you can now get those same steep discounts on two of this year's best phones without waiting most of the year to get them! Better yet, this price is $100 less than the best price Amazon has ever had for this particular model.
Samsung Galaxy S21 | $200 off at Amazon
This fantastic Galaxy S21 deal means you can get the best hand-sized flagship from Samsung without having to choose between a great phone and a great price. With the fastest mobile processor, the best cameras, and the smoothest display, this is the phone to beat while still making one-handed use easy, thanks to its manageable size.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 is a nearly perfect phone for its price tag. It debuted at $200 less than the similar-tier Galaxy S20 before it, all while offering a better experience overall. The hardware is just as top-notch as you'd expect, even if it does "just" have a plastic back instead of a glass one.
The bright side is that it's not made of that nasty glossy plastic that Samsung phones used to ship with. This plastic feels as quality as plastic gets, with a matte finish and metal rails all along the side to strengthen the build even further. It's also a noticeable bit lighter than a glass phone because of it!
The Snapdragon 888 that powers this phone isn't just the latest and greatest silicon from Qualcomm; it also enables the best camera experience we've ever seen on a Samsung phone. Less aggressive processing, faster loading and picture-taking times, and generally more attractive shots than ever before.
Space Zoom makes an appearance on these phones with 30x maximum zoom, making it easy to focus on the subject, even if it's far away. Instead, when you need to see the whole picture, the ultra-wide lens takes everything into view all around you, making it easy to get group shots or gorgeous landscape photos.
Alternatively, if you want a bigger screen and a bigger battery, look no further than the Samsung Galaxy S21+. This one went on sale just before Prime Day for $800, but this Prime Day deal takes an additional $50 off that sale price, making it an impressive $750. The Galaxy S21+ also features a glass back, which could be a draw for folks that like to walk on the wild side and use their phone without a case.
Lastly is the addition of the Galaxy S21 Ultra. By no means is this phone the least on this list - if anything, this one is the best phone you're going to find on the market right now - it's just that this one is a bit more expensive than the rest. At $900, this 25% off deal makes the S21 Ultra more affordable, for sure, but $900 isn't a small chunk of change to drop. Still, you'll be getting the very best specs, S-Pen support for the first time on a Galaxy S phone, and the best cameras money can buy!
Samsung Galaxy S21+
The Samsung Galaxy S21+ is 30% off for Prime Day, taking $300 off the normal price tag and making this the lowest price Amazon has ever had for the phone. Get the same excellent experience as the Galaxy S21, just with a larger screen, bigger battery, and a premium glass back.
Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra
This 25% off Prime Day deal makes the Galaxy S21 Ultra considerably more affordable, something it surely was not before. The Galaxy S21 Ultra is, essentially, this year's Galaxy Note, complete with S-Pen support and cutting-edge specs. When you want the best, you get an Ultra.
