More specs have been leaked for the Samsung Galaxy S21, revealing what we can expect from its display, camera, and charging capabilities.
Reliable leak Ice universe it is once again the source of these details. Much of what they claim looks similar to the Galaxy S20 Ultra that launched this year, but it still looks like a spec monster that will easily challenge the iPhone 12 Pro Max on paper.
The first thing IU tells us is a close enough replay of its latest Galaxy S21 Ultra leak. The claim is that, like the S20 Ultra this year, the S21 Ultra will feature a QHD display with a 120Hz refresh rate. IU described the resolution as “2K” rather than QHD previously, but these two resolutions can mean the same thing as 2K typically refers to displays with different aspect ratios compared to the typical smartphone.

While iPhones don’t use normal screen proportions like Android phones do, a QHD display has a higher resolution than the Super Retina XDR display used in the iPhone 12 Pro. Brightness and color accuracy are also important in determining. if a screen is good, but at least from a resolution point of view, the Galaxy S21 Ultra outperforms Apple.
Samsung Galaxy S21 45W charging
“Support 45W” tells us that Samsung will once again use its higher speed 45W charging technology in the S21 Ultra. However, you may need to spend more to use it. The Galaxy S20 Ultra, which also supports 45W charging, comes with a 25W charger by default.
45W is pretty fast, but it’s starting to look a bit slow compared to others. The OnePlus 8T features a 65W charge with its included charger, with higher charging speeds in development at various companies. It is possible that a few months after its planned launch in January 2021, the S21 Ultra will be surpassed by newer rivals in charging speed.
Either way, it beats the 20W maximum speed of newer iPhones, which you can only achieve with a separate charger, as Apple no longer sells its phones with charging bricks in the box.
Samsung Galaxy S21 camera update
We’ve heard before that the S21 Ultra will once again use a 108MP main camera, like the S20 Ultra and Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. However, the HM3 sensor is new, a successor to the S20 Ultra and the HM1 to the Note 20 Ultra.
If the UI info turns out to be correct, that could mean some minor improvements to what we’ve seen on the already impressive camera this year. Combined with the rumored laser autofocus as well, the S21 Ultra will be a strong contender for a spot on our best camera phones list.
While the Galaxy S21’s main camera may be an evolution over that of the Galaxy S20 Ultra, things could get more interesting with the other lenses on the phone. That’s because the Galaxy S21 could eliminate the time-of-flight sensor to support two optical zoom lenses. One is tilted to be a 3x lens and the other is a 10x periscope lens.
Super slim bezels of the Samsung Galaxy S21
Finally, UI refers to the screen bezels of the Galaxy S21 with “almost the same width”. Most phones have asymmetrical top and bottom bezels, but IU noted that the Galaxy S21 will have bezels that are practically the same size throughout the phone.
Not the most exciting of leaked details. But small changes could make the phone look better overall and refine Samsung’s reputation for making stellar displays for smartphones. IPhone 12 phones have been praised for their slim, clean bezels, so Samsung further refining the aesthetic is welcome.
Typically, Samsung launches its new Galaxy S series phone in February. But the company is expected to launch the Galaxy S21 in late January this year. The goal is to steal the thunder from the iPhone 12, which comes with a new design, improved specs, stellar cameras, and 5G connectivity.
