Where the S21 Plus is simply a larger version of the S21, the S21 Ultra is in its own class, sporting more storage options, bigger RAM, a slightly bigger screen and, most importantly, Samsung’s best camera setup yet. Before we get into the deets, here’s a quick summary of the key specs differences between the three S21 models. Firstly, Telstra has the most extensive coverage in the country, covering up to 99.2% of the population with 4GX connectivity and the fastest 5G rollout of the big three - however, 5G access is only included for customers with a $65 Medium plan or above. In our review of Telstra’s mobile plans, they scored big on included features, such as data-free Apple Music streaming (subscription not included) and data-free streaming of AFL, AFLW, NRL, Netball and the Hyundai A-League. There’s also the Telstra Plus rewards program, which allows you to trade points earned by simply being a customer for goodies like speakers, gaming accessories, smartwatches and more. On the downside, customer reviews for Telstra’s support aren’t exactly the best in the biz (just 1.4 stars on Product Review), despite having basically every customer service channel known to man. For sports lovers, if you opt for a Medium or higher Optus Choice Plan, you’ll also get an Optus Sport + Fitness subscription included at no extra cost. As we discovered in our standalone review, Optus Sport is fantastic if you’re a big soccer fan, but kind of useless if you’re after any other sports. Optus Fitness, on the other hand, is a relatively new addition that allows you to stream 120 dance, yoga and pilates videos. Unfortunately, like Telstra, Optus hasn’t got the most stellar customer reviews with a dismal average of 1.4 stars on Product Review. However, they do have a bunch of contact options for when you do have an issue. As with the other big telcos, Vodafone’s customer reviews aren’t amazing at an average of just 1.6 stars on Product Reviews - marginally better than Telstra and Optus’ scores. Woolies’ plans tend to offer great bang for buck, with plans from $25 for 18GB (plus handset fees). While they’re not quite as feature-packed as those on offer by the big three, they all include unlimited talk and text and, perhaps most enticingly, 10 per cent off one shop per month at Woolies, which could feasibly cover the cost of your plan. Like its lower-spec siblings, the S21 Ultra features Samsung’s new Eye Comfort Shield, which limits blue light exposure by automatically adjusting throughout the day and depending on the content you’re watching. The S21 Ultra comes in two colours: Phantom Silver and Phantom Black, however, three more colours (Phantom Titanium, Phantom Navy and Phantom Brown) are also available exclusively through the Samsung website. It’s the first time a Galaxy phone will have the ability to shoot 4K video at 60fps across all lenses - including the selfie camera. For the pro photographer, there’s also a 12-bit RAW file option for more detailed editing, 100x Space Zoom, improved Bright Night sensor and Night Mode software. As with last year’s lineup, the S21 selfie camera is getting the same upgrade from its little siblings, boasting a huge 40MP front-facing hole-punch lens.
