Joining the budget-friendly crowd is the Samsung Galaxy A21s: а device with a massive battery life and well-performing cameras. Now, we did encounter performance issues, and the LCD screen is not so color accurate, but if you’re looking for a good budget-friendly smartphone with solid battery life and a big display, the Galaxy A21s might be a good candidate for you.

Stellar battery life and a nice enough design are pitched into a package that lacks power and doesn't have a great display. Compromises are expected at the affordable end of the scale, but unless you're desperate for a Samsung phone, you'll find better experiences elsewhere.

The Galaxy A21s seems like a reasonable offer - the large 6.5" screen, the very good quad-camera, and the beefy battery that scored a very high endurance rating. The phone costs about €170 for its 32GB version, which is a budget-friendly price as far as Samsungs go.

One of Samsung’s cheapest smartphones, the Galaxy A21s is a worthy budget pick.

If battery life is a priority for you, then you may be perfectly happy with the Galaxy A21s. However, if you live in a market where Samsung has either the Galaxy M21 or Galaxy M31 on sale, then the A21s is a phone you should completely ignore. Save some money and go for either of the M series phones, or maybe even take a look at the Galaxy A31 if it’s available in your country. All those phones are much, much better for just a little extra money and make the Galaxy A21s seem like an unnecessary phone.
