While we're fans of the entire Galaxy S21 lineup, the Editor's Choice Samsung Galaxy S21 is a great starting point if you want to spend the least amount of money. It offers a fantastic display, powerful cameras, and an overall refined smartphone experience at a competitive price. 

In our tests, we found that the S21's display is great for watching movies, ogling Instagram pics, and playing games. Meanwhile, its photos are flush with colors and detail while delivering a nice upgrade over its predecessor's photo capabilities. In our battery test, we also got 9 hours and 53 minutes, which again beats the iPhone 12 and Galaxy S20.
