Yup! Loving it so far!

Nice upgrade.

Do you plan on selling the S21? You could get a decent amount for it if you fix the battery.

It’s a possibility! I like holding on to my old phones, just in case I need a backup (or if a family member needs one).

How is One UI 7? What’s your opinion on it?

It’s great! I love the smoothness and the new widgets. The Now Bar is cool, even though it’s kind of like the dynamic island from the iPhone. Everything just feels more polished overall. My only issue is that some parts remind me too much of iOS. Not a huge problem, but it’s noticeable.

That’s nice, I really like the new widget blur effect. Congrats on your new phone!

Same, and thanks!

Still got my S21 FE and came back to it after using a Pixel 8 (not a fan of the basic Pixel UI)… thinking about moving to the S24 or 25+.

Yeah, sometimes I think about switching to Pixel, but I just love One UI too much.

The S24+ is definitely a great choice, though! I’m sure the S25+ will be great too!

Pixel wallpaper on an S24… Jokes aside, that’s a nice upgrade!

It really is a nice upgrade!

Yeah, the S21 FE was so bad, it had phantom drain while turned off (at least mine did).

Mine too. The battery was bad from the start, and it just got worse. The phantom drain especially.
