The Galaxy S21 delivers the flagship Samsung experience in a reasonably small and affordable package. It's a generally great phone for the majority of users, but its lower price point comes with a few compromises. Even months later, it continues to be a solid deal — if you know where to look.

The iPhone 13 Pro Max looks the same as its predecessor, but it has a lot of interesting features under the hood.
