Depending on how lucky you are, your display may or may not die after a software update OR right after your warranty expires. May be some other issues such as green tint, yellow tint, pink lines, black screen of death can also be expected later.
Display colours are excellent.

The camera is too heavy for its processor that it heats up if used continuously (for Ultra, don't know for S21). Prolonged usage can also give you warnings that can prevent you from using camera until the device cools down.

Performance is probably fine, but S21's processor is equivalent to A13 bionic (2019) processor from iPhone 11 series.
And its alot behind A14 (2020) and A15 (2021) processors of iPhone when compared. (Behind by 2 years).

Some preloaded apps can only be disabled.

You might get 5-6 hours of Screen On Time with the battery depending on your usage.

Of course, no Ads are present in samsung flagships.

Okay. You're using Ultra. But there is no comparison between Ultra and Basic one 😕 😔 Ultra is a Appropriate flagship whereas basic one made up with cost cutting strategy.

Battery = 7 (not lasts a day)

Camera = 9

Picture quality and IOS Stability = 7 (slow nd super slow motion always got blur. Also no use of 30x zoom)

Performance = 8 (my phone restrated many times while using Gpay, Keep Open feature is not working from last 10 days, complained many time - poor responce from support team)

Heating issue = 8 (very less, but extream heat when camera under use for 20-30 minutes)

Freedom .... = 10 very less bloatware

Display = 10

Ads = 10 (no ads)

Security = 10 knox awesome
