  • The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra had a lot to live up to! With the S23 Ultra still considered one of the best smartphones I've had, this was always going to be difficult to beat. But despite some of the issues I shared here today, is the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra still the best smartphone in the market today? 🤔
    In this video I took the Galaxy S24 Ultra to Manchester United's stadium, Old Trafford, which was a great experience.

      I got poor battery life with my yellow S24U. Switched to a iPhone 15 Pro max and it was not night and day but definitely last a lot more. People screaming about S24U battery life in every iPhone video now seems funny to me. Also customization is not as bad as they say in IOS.

    I’m in India and I am torn between the ultra and plus models. What’s your take? Since I don’t use stylus if I am pick the ultra I would do so only for the more efficient SOC. Is that right to do? Or the plus is good enough for 3 year usage. FYI iPhone 13 Pro is my current phone.

    Thank you for reviewing your experience.
    Personally, I moved from an S21 Ultra to the S24 Ultra about a week and a half ago and have only experienced a couple of issues.
    Initially, I watched about 8 to 10 tips and settings I should try on my new phone. After about 2 days, I removed/reset many of those fancy tweaks since they were sucking battery. I also minimized the AI features where I could as I do not appreciate being told what I like and dislike. Yes so the battery has been all over the place but has now settled down to well within my full day charge/use expectations.
    The second issue has been text messaging. On setup, I must have been sleeping and noted that Google Messages highjacked Samsung Messages. I disabled Google Messages and started using Samsung Messages. It seems that it does not receive/display conversation/group texts correctly. I only get individual texts which appear dispersed in the view/app.
    The screen is outstanding in the sunlight although at the expense of the battery.
    .
    The camera is outstanding, though I love the S21 camera too.
    .
    The video, ya, I might just learn video. TH-cam videos have been very helpful in learning setting and how-to's.
    .
    A couple of apps run very smoothly and/or behave much better in S24 Ultra when compared to the S21 Ultra.
    And though I am not sure why yet, but the S24 Ultra seems to have a half bar to bar better reception/connection. That is I seem to get a bar to two bars now, instead of zero/no connection to one bar. We don't have 5G locally.
    The jump is definitely worth it!
    Thanks again for sharing your experience!!

      They should fix it on their end if it's their fault soon. I say that because if you've been on Android long enough you know sometimes the apps you have might not be optimized to your device. Could explain why not everyone is having problems with heating. I feel ( now I could be wrong ) like if it was their issue almost everyone would be having the same problem.

    With all the processing power on tap, could they not see that some goes into sorting out little details like this? 😡

    Alex, good to see and hear you again. I fear Samsung has lost its way, and I blame the horrendous 6.1 update as the start of it all.
    I'm rocking an S23 Ultra which was pure perfection and power before I installed 6.1.
    Now the battery life is only slightly better than my trusty old S8+ .
    After spending a fortune on my S23 Ultra I am not a happy bunny at all!
    I can see Apple gaining some new customers because of this.
    There's a lot of S24 users not happy either with camera performance.

    Interesting that yours is dropping so quickly. Does your S24 Ultra have the SnapDragon 8 gen 3 processor in it or the Exynos? I'm assuming the latter since you live in western U.K. ... am just wondering if there's some dramatic difference between the efficiencies of the two.

      I think it depends on people’s usage. Some apps really consume much more battery and not everyone uses those apps. Battery life is really subjective unless there is a widespread issue.

      Just to add to what you said... What people don't know is there are so many apps on Android that anyone of them could not only be draining but causing heating issues because it's not optimized to your phone. I know no one wants to hear this but I already experienced this with a TH-cam app on my s24 plus. As soon as I got an update for the app issue with heating was gone.

      dudes gotta make content and crib about every little thing and flip flops...its his job...gets him the views and subs. these are first world problems but how can you trust a tech channel when the dude himself is so conflicted with himself between s24U and iPhone. one day "This is the best phone I have used" to a few days later "why I am disappointed with the phone but I still continue to use it so you will get 10 more videos of the nitpicking I will be doing" Kudos to anyone to use whatever they want but he is the most confused TH-camr with the first world problems. But all aside he is a very humble guy! I have no issues with my IP15PM and S24U that are BIG enough that halts me from my productivity, that would make me go on social media and complain about - masking it as "I'm sharing my experience with you".

    Man I don't know, battery life on my S24U seems about the same. My Zfold 5 on the other hand has been all over the place. Normally I get home after 12 hours at work with both phones on about 80%. But the first day of last week I came home took my zfold out of my pocket and went to make something to eat and when I got back the battery was at 4%. Which is insane when im normally at somewhere between 75-85%. The thing is I didn't do anything different. And over the course of the week it's fluctuated between 70ish% and 40%. It seems to have fixed itself though this week but I can't really tell because I've taken the week off so I've mostly been home and maybe that makes a difference.

    Temos o choque na mudança da lente wide para a lente tele no S24U, mas certamente ainda me parece menos pior do que a mudança constante que o iphone faz quando se está filmando algo que está mais próximo dele. Eu não havia notado, mas antes de pegar o S24U eu peguei um iPhone 15 Pro Max para mim e minha esposa e ela está "p" da vida porque ela veio de um iPhone 12 e foi fazer um vídeo das unhas dela com o iphone 15 Pro Max e as lentes ficaram saltando de uma pra outra. Terrível! Não ouvi ninguém falar sobre isso, faz um teste aí Alex. Desde que percebi isso, não consigo mais "desver". O que é de influenciar fazendo vídeo saltando, não é brincadeira...rs E acredito que pelo fato de ser o melhor iPhone já lançado ever, ninguém falada absolutamente nada.

So enjoyable and the phone is "cheap" for the price. As for cameras that people say about that they are good, it's marketing, it's good but not perfect. Generally it has a POLED, I guess it's something better than OLED but not too much.

    Interesting video. I also think that the flaw of Samsung right now isn't its issues themselves, but the time it takes to fix them. In many cases, they don't fix them at all. The s23 Ultra had big strengths and some weaknesses at its launch, and it has been carrying these weaknesses for over a year now. Especially when the camera is concerned. It's the only reason I've stopped upgrading.
    This sloppy approach that we've witnessed for over a year makes Samsung products less appealing, in my opinion.

Cameras are excellent, but thats not the most important thing for me, my s10+ is still good enough for me in that department. Also have s22u exy version, and difference in battery life and general smoothness is night and day. Amazing screen and build quality, so really dont have a single thing to complain about.

    I'm starting to believe both samsung and apple just push updates to push them and not worry about battery life which I personally think is the biggest seller for most consumers including me. I could personally care less about the camera quality as all new phones are almost indistinguishable to the naked eye. I've using my 13 PRO max since release and have stayed with it even after trying the S22 Ultra which had the worst battery life and then ended up selling my S23 ultra not too long ago as I didn't really enjoy my experience much with it either. I may give oneplus a try again after nearly 7 years since I had the 7 pro with the pop up camera, now that was cool.

      Good point about the camera quality these days... It's hard to find a 'bad' phone, especially at this price range. Yeah, I hope the OnePlus phones bring back some of that innovation thinking they had when they first came into the scene. That 13PM to be fair was probably the last iPhone that I enjoyed, a true all-rounder. The 15PM is great too but I think iOS needs a new lick of paint
