Message/Text issue

It worked fine until the December 2, 2020 update. I used to use Verizon +, but after update, android auto thought it was an International call, message never delivered. I thought maybe a setting in my phone changed. UGH. Also night mode is no longer automatic. They need to fix these issues, or so much for not having distracted driving.

First take on the Ultra

For sure, and not surprised to hear bluetooth is odd. Seems every new phone has weird bluetooth behavior at first. I've only been in car couple times and listened to podcasts, but that has been flawless. Still waiting for my new Samsung Bud Pro to play with those. I DETEST headphones/earbuds, but my Buds from last year were pretty much the best I'd ever used.

My free Galaxy Tag came yesterday.... No clue what I would use that for though.

Phone's camera literally blows my mind. Night and day difference from my s20 plus, and it demolishes wifes Pixel 4xl....

I received my tag with my Ultra. However, my shipping info says I should get it today? If you think one is worthless... what about two? :) I'm with you, I see no value in the tag. It communicates via BLE as well. I hope it works better than the BLE to my aids.

The camera.. just WoW! It's been frigid here so I've not capped any outside but the quality of inside and selfie shots blow me away. Night and day compared to my old Note. I can't wait to get outside with this phone. 10X...can't wait!

No free screen protectors on U.S.A. S21 devices

I pretty much never use a screen protector, and when my S20 Plus came with one I told myself I'd remove. But it was on there so perfectly I left it. I'm careful with my devices so not having on the S21 (ultra) isn't a huge deal, but with the other cost savings, and hearing international got it, I would have rather they provided it again. Of course, if they found most just removed, I can see this being a worthwhile cost savings, I guess.

Which of these will give me the best value for money?

Considering getting a cheap phone to play around with and maybe flash some ROMs. Singaporean here, maximum price I'm willing to pay is 60 SGD, carrier doesn't matter, looking to get the best camera, performance, RAM, storage space, and battery, with good community support a plus. Which of these would be my best choice?
