After their Fan Edition, from Samsung, they knew that offering more for less was key to the success of some Galaxy S21 that is nominated as the best seller of the year. Will they be in the end?
It is true that it has been very sensitive, almost nothing, but it must be recognized that indeed Samsung has reduced the prices of its Galaxy S for the first time in a long time, placing the new Galaxy S21 in a slightly more sustainable situation with respect to its quality/price ratio, and also partially justifying with this price drop the elimination of chargers and headphones that Apple started.
Be that as it may, sometimes it is difficult for us to understand the “value” of a smartphone-based only on specifications and prices, and the colleagues from Android Central have wanted in this case to shed a little light on a complicated issue, which many reduce to cheaper prices not counting what their devices really offer at the price they pay for them. Does a Samsung Galaxy S21 cost what it is worth? Well, let's try to analyze it!

The truth is that it is easy to start this article taking into account the arrival of the Samsung Fan Edition, terminals that according to the South Korean giant itself attended to the request of its customers to offer them more for less, and bring them a quality experience at much more prices affordable.
If users asked for it, and the Galaxy S20 FE had been a bestseller, the recipe was clear to get Samsung Galaxy S21 more attractive than ever, focusing efforts on compensating as much as possible for the price and "value" offered to the user to remove any hint of doubt.
And here comes the Samsung Galaxy S21 in its base model, which starts from 859 euros to reach almost everyone with the best hardware and the best Samsung experience, leaving the Plus and Ultra models above 1,200 euros for those who do. they need everything, differentiating their options better than ever.
Why the Galaxy S21 break the balance and are now cheaper?
Well, Samsung is not the best example of a manufacturer with cheap and well-compensated flagship phones, but it is never too late if the happiness is good and this time the South Koreans have done a good job with the Galaxy S21, at least in its model "Normal", which is for me the most attractive without a doubt.
It already happened at the time with the iPhone 12 and its different flavors, the CEO of Redmi himself stated that the only one that attracted him was the cheapest, for example, and it is very difficult to justify prices of 1,200 or 1,300 euros just for one Better camera, especially when Google's Pixel smartphones excel in photography and don't even go beyond the double sensor.
So, I am glad that Samsung endorsed the opinions with the 'FE' models, and this Galaxy S21 approached that concept with high-end hardware and prices as compensated as possible, although this obviously means having lost certain characteristics that for many are not differential.
Objectively, Samsung's new Galaxy S21 offers more value for its price than the 'Ultra' model, and also than a Galaxy S20 that is too expensive, surely due to maintaining the glass back or non-differential specifications.
In effect, the "normal" Galaxy S21s lose the MST technology that is not even used in our markets, they also lower the performance of some cameras that are still good for most, and above all memory, expansion is left on the way. with microSD or the glass back, giving way to a plastic that has nothing wrong if it is used well and is of quality.
Are we willing to run out of microSD, or have a plastic back, for 500 euros less? Well, I think most of us do, because the heart of the smartphone and its capabilities except for the camera is identical to that of the Ultra model, which is reserved for 'heavy users', making the base model precisely this, a base model. From the outset, much more attractive to the bulk of users.
And this is where the definition of "value" itself comes in, and it is that objectively, the Galaxy S21 offers much more value at its price than the Ultra model or the Galaxy S20 of last year, probably more expensive to maintain the glass and options that many do not consider differential as the ones we have mentioned.
The idea is simple. If a Samsung user wants to change their mobile and is going to look for the flagship killers of other manufacturers only for prices that are much more attractive, why not offer them a flagship killer within the Galaxy S21 range itself? It is understood, no?
