Samsung’s upcoming flagship Galaxy S21 + is still a month or more away from launch.
However, that didn’t stop YouTube channel Random Stuff 2 from posting a five-minute video review of the new phone.
Typically, early leaks only give us a brief glimpse of the phone, usually in horrible light. But this “unofficial review,” as it is called, shows us the device clearly from all sides in broad daylight. We are even treated to a short game session and numerous camera samples.
In the video, we can clearly see the bezel-less design with a selfie camera with punch holes in the top center of the screen, as well as the triple rear camera.
The phone is clearly a pre-production device, with some parts taped off and software not finished. Yet everything seems to be going very smoothly; the man holding the phone in the video appears to be impressed and says it will probably be the “best phone of 2021”. He even posted another video with some benchmarks indicating that the new Galaxy S21 + is faster than most phones out there.
We’re reserving our verdict until the phone is officially out, but it’s certainly cool to see the device in such detail before launch. Also, there’s a possibility that the phone in the video isn’t quite the new Samsung, but the video certainly seems pretty convincing.
The Samsung Galaxy S21 + is rumored to come with the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chip, 8 GB RAM, 128/256 GB storage and a 64/12/12 megapixel camera setup. It will likely launch in January.
