Because if you buy an S21 through a carrier, those phones will carry even more bloatware. Compare this with an iPhone, which comes with zero bloatware, zero 3rd party apps, and zero carrier pre-installed apps. This Galaxy S21 has a plastic back. So, it does not feel premium at all.
Moreover, a plastic back will chip its paint after a few years. At that point, this phone will look very ugly. However, if you use a phone case, you can avoid this issue. Apple provides regular software updates to all of its iPhone. They never abandon their phones. But Samsung stops giving any software update after only 24 months of release.
So, after only 24 months, you will not receive any OS update for your Galaxy S The Galaxy S21 does not come with headphones in the box. Moreover, it does not have any 3. Samsung does not provide any charger with the Galaxy S You have to buy either a USB C charger or a wireless charger. In , when Apple announced that they would no longer give a charger in the box, Samsung mocked Apple in various ads. Now, look what Samsung is doing. Samsung did this before.
Samsung used to criticize Apple for not having any external SD card support or for the non-removable battery. But now, Samsung adopted those same things that Apple did years ago. Moreover, we also mentioned that Samsung would no longer provide headphones. Samsung also criticized Apple for not providing a headphone with the iPhone. It looks petty. We can guarantee that Apple will remove the lighting port on the next iPhone, and Samsung will criticize them for it. While new, your phone will open apps blazing fast; however, this RAM would choke to run different apps after a few years.
The Galaxy S21 has good cameras and can record 4k and 8k video. Moreover, S21 cameras are gyro-stabilized. Though this gyro-stabilization is useful for taking pictures, it is terrible for capturing video while you walk. The mobile gyro will fail to stabilize the camera on every footstep, especially while recording in 4k or 8k. We have tested it, and we were disappointed. Samsung is terrible at software. Bixby is the prime example. Most of the time, it does not work. Moreover, Android Assistant is far superior to Bixby.
Still, Samsung ships this unnecessary software with every phone. A new Galaxy S21 will operate smoothly. But after only a few years, this S21 will become very slow and laggy. From our experience, after 48 months, Samsung becomes entirely unusable. If your S21 is frozen and unresponsive, press and hold the Side key and the Volume Down key simultaneously for more than 7 seconds to restart your phone.

As long as the custom ROM supports signature spoofing, you can have more freedom over your choices. Since MicroG is bundled with the ROM itself, you pretty much know it should work as intended by the developer.
Hope that helps you decide! I'm not aware of any problems right now, so you should be good! I covered OrangeFox a little while ago in my guide here if you do have a OnePlus device just in case. If anything comes up, I'd be happy to help out further. Hello, and thank you for creating this great article. Being new to Android, I've done quite a bit of research and am trying to anonymize my life as much as possible, starting with my phone.
Everything seems to work, but I haven't found any articles quite explaining whether or not I should be logging into the google account that MicroG has in the settings. I'm wondering if I'll "blow my cover" from google tracking by logging in with my personal gmail account, or if MicroG will anonymize the login somehow. I would like to have Outlook Mail that I got from the Aurora Store to have my gmail account, but it won't let me and says I am "missing a google library" or something like that and the install fails.
Somewhere along the line I was reading I needed the Chrome app for gmail to work. I can't install that either. Something seems to be missing or setup incorrectly with my MicroG. If I need to login once and log back out to make some apps work, that's fine. I just don't want all-the-time tracking from the big G. Thanks for any help! Broda, you forgot to write that Signature Spoofing support can be enabled in non supported roms too. Subscribe Now.
