S21U was/is an awesome device

I have used it daily for over five years. Sure, it's nowhere near as fast as some of the later S-phones but it's smooth and the screen is crystal-clear and bright. But the battery is beginning show its age and it's no longer receiving updates, so I'll reluctantly have to retire it in a few months when the S27U comes out. Hoping Samsung addresses the PWM issues that seem to have caused the screen issues in the S26U but, if they have I'll be a customer. Truth be told, however, if they put out a version of the S27U without a privacy display at all but with all the other planned improvements, I'd be all over that in a heartbeat. Anyway, I just wanted to give some much-deserved praise to the S21U - it's been a real flawless workhorse for 5+ years.

i dropped my s21 FE 5g on the floor and it stopped picking up signal in my house.

For context, my phone died, and it fell out of my hand. i charged it, booted it up, and now it says no service. i walked about a block away from my house and good service was brought back again. i then walked back to my house and it again went out of service. Faraday cages are out of the question. My mom, who lives at the same house as me, who is on Rogers says she has full bars. What could've happened?

Camera quality on the S21 vs S24

I have had mixed results saying that one is better than the other (for both). What do you guys think? I have the S21 but can't tell if my pictures come out because of me or the phone. Should I upgrade to the S24?

Is the Samsung S21 good enough for restaurant videography?

recently got a job creating content for a restaurant. I have a Canon 6D for photography, but for video I'm considering using my Samsung Galaxy S21 because I don't have proper stabilization/gimbal equipment for the Canon.

Do you think the S21 is good enough to create professional-looking restaurant videos/Reels?

I'd appreciate any advice on shooting food and restaurant content with the S21, especially regarding settings, lighting, stabilization, camera movements and editing.

Would you personally use the S21 for this type of work, or would you recommend shooting with the Canon 6D despite the lack of stabilization?

Why can I not disable Quick Share?

Its in my quick settings if i swipe down from the top. Google says pressing it should turn it off, as it does to all other settings there, but it doesn't. Nwither can i do it through the device settings if I follow the steps through there as it says to enter connections, more connections, and then quick share, but quick share dies not exist there for me.

Does quick share do something vital for the phone to function or why the hell is there no way to change my own settings?
