> Samsung is in the market of selling cheap hardware

I'm not sure about this. There are people who pay >1000€ for their flagship phones and believe them to be premium products, but they are just as buggy as the cheap ones. Huge amount of CPU power and impressive camera specs, though.

I've never had one, can you expound more on this topic?

The S21 Ultra seems like a very good purchase from reviews. QHD screen with dynamically adjusted 120Hz seems really like the best spec.

IIRC that model doesn't give apps audio route change notifications when Bluetooth is disconnected, which screws up audio timing. Or something similar, each model has different bugs. But yeah, it doesn't spontaneously catch fire, so on Samsung scale it's good. Reviewers generally don't know about this stuff, because app developers have already worked around it.
