Samsung S21 Ultra

I received last January 28, 2021 from Globe Telecom my pre-order of Samsung S21 Ultra, I pre-order it last January 15, 2021, and after almost 2 weeks of waiting the Samsung S21 Ultra arrived at my residence.

When you pre-order it comes with Galaxy Buds Pro, Galaxy Tab 8.0, Tag worth, 25W Wall Charger, and for Globe Platinum member you get an extra Silicone cover with S Pen and Wireless Charger.

But when the Item finally arrived, I was expecting a whole package. However, what arrived was only the Samsung S21 Ultra. and last Saturday, January 30, 2021. I received a text message which say:

"Hi, Rene! We're pleased to inform you that your pre-order of the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra for mobile number 917xxxxxxx with reference number 1xxxxxxxx has been confirmed.

Please take a screenshot of this message and submit the image as pre-order proof to claim your silicone cover with S Pen, Wireless Charger Trio, Galaxy Buds Pro, Galaxy Tab A 8.0", Galaxy SmartTag, and 25W wall charger at https://www.samsung.com/ph/redemption/s21preorder/xxxxxxxx

Redemption of freebies will be open until March 31, 2021. For more info, you may chat with Thea, your Digital Assistant at glbe.co/thea-gp or your Relationship Manager."

Apparently, coming from Globe Telecom the provider where I ordered it was just the smartphone, and you have to registered at the link, with your ID, Screenshot of the text message, Screenshot of the Samsung S21 Ultra information like IMEI, which can be found at Setting -> About. After registering and upload the requirement you will received a confirmation from Samsung.

and so, the wait starts again when the Freebies will arrived.

I setup the phone last night, and bring it out today for testing. the camera features is my purpose of getting the Samsung S21 ultra. This afternoon, while in a car, when I saw far away, a cow with a heron standing at the back. I decided to take some shoots and test the zoom features. However, when I move the Samsung S21 Ultra from inside the car to outside the windows, the screen display a white overexpose image. Then I get the phone inside, close the camera apps, and open it again, and face the camera outside and again it over expose again. this happens for 3x, on the 4th attempt, I open the camera with the camera facing outside, and I was able to take a good photo. However, the heron was not on top of the back of the cow already. The photo was very good. The camera was fast. expect there is still some bugs in the software. Hopefully Samsung will fixed it in the next software upgrade.

Using the S21 Ultra, you will notice the display is very good, scrolling is very fast and smooth with the 120 Hz refresh rate.

So far, this is just my observation. I need to used it for the next few days for more evaluation of the products.

I posted some unboxing photos and photos of the cow and heron.
