Well back when I was rocking an iPhone 11 Pro max I switched to the One Plus.... and the letdown was the SOFTWARE not the hardware. I got tired after 6 months of random apps not working or the need to reboot the phone to connect with my car Android car whatever.
I pre ordered the s24ultra and completely regret it. I'm wanting to sell the samsung and go back to an iphone. The thing that really irritates me is the corners! Why on earth a phone this size has sharp squared off corners is beyond me. Can't even get it in and out of pockets easily. It's just become.a massive pain to use this phone. If you know anyone who would want to trade an immaculate s24 ultra in titanium grey 512gb for an iphone 15 pro max let me know. 😊 By the way, nice video. 👍🏻
I did the switch last year and it was not a big Deal. I am lucky using the S24 Ultra now! And you are right: using other Devices not belonging to the ecosystem is much easier now.
@@TommyEgan101 A big screen is obviously better, but some people want to use commutes or any downtime they may have throughout their day. And the smartphone is the most accessible tool for that.
Gotta agree. Change is good! I started from first iPhone and now have s24 ultra. iPhone is my secondary phone. And I DO NOT miss using it as main device AT ALL
As someone who has a Samsung phone and an iPad and a Mac (since 2020), I simply don’t understand all this brand competition that marketing has taught people that it’s one brand of device or the other. I couldn’t give a Flying F if you’re Apple one minute, Android this minute, next generation Samsung Fold in July, possibly next generation Pixel, and then iPhone16 in October… you’re a tech reviewer, after all. But many commentators seem to have their knickers in a twist over the thought😆. But I do appreciate your efforts to give it a really good go. Because most Apple fan-boys who review Android phones are laughably absurd because unless you spend at least 3 months to work out an Android phone properly without having an iPhone on standby in your back pocket if you’re balls deep in the Apple ecosystem, you’re not giving yourself the chance to work out all the things and new ideas (end of rant😆). The reality is, you can still stay in the Apple ecosystem when you get a Samsung phone. I wasted a lot of time thinking I had to leave everything Apple when I had Multiplatform devices, and I wasted a lot of time experimenting with third party apps… but at the end of the day, keep your favourite Apple apps, and it’s all about Syncing. Simply back up your Samsung photos and Files to Google Drive, and on your Apple devices download Google 1 to sync iOS photos to Google photos as well as Apple calendar to Google calendar - and adding Google drive to your Apple devices. The hardest thing for me when I left iOS for Samsung a few years ago, while still having an iPad and Mac, was trying to find things to replace Apple apps that I was used to, and loved! I eventually realised that I didn’t have to. I’m still in the Apple ecosystem, but I’m also in the Google ecosystem and the Microsoft ecosystem and a lot of third parties. Syncing iOS photos to Google photos, and syncing iOS calendar to Google calendar was a game changer. I eventually, over time, moved to other apps. It takes time to forget how we used to do things, and to learn new ways that work and link devices together. I still use iCloud, plus Google Drive, and simple drag and drop files between each other on my Mac. Downloads on my Samsung phone are backed up to Google Drive, meaning I can access them on my Mac and my iPad. Same with photos and video. Your iPad is key here. Bring up a photo or video via Google photos (that you’ve taken on Android phone, that Samsung photos has backed up to Google Photos) on your iPad, and then “save to device”. It is now in iOS photos. You can now access via Apple photos on your Mac. Likewise, your entire iOS photo and video history is now accessible on Google photos on the Samsung phone. Even if I went back to iPhone with the new generation in October, I’ll still continue syncing so that I can continue to have the freedom to change devices in the future. Good luck with your experimenting, I’ll still be here for your next one😊
@@UKL3G3NDZX still looking at options for that piece. Was leaning towards the galaxy watch 6 classic but I read that the 7 series should be out soon. Debating if I wanna hold off till then.
Ah that's good to know. Was looking at Garmin as well but think that's overkill. I'd want something big again because I like the wise of the apple watch ultra. That's been the hardest bit of the switch
@@UKL3G3NDZX yes! Between the build quality and batt life it's a hard choice! I will prob hold till the galaxy watch 7 series and then decide after the release.
@orlandoj.sotozeno1593 got my S24 Ultra with a promotion freebies. I got a free Watch 6 and Buds 2 pro. Watch 6 is really amazing and faster than the Watch 5. Watch 7, on the other hand, will be released sometime in August or September at the same time they release the fold phone.
I changed this year from iPhone 13 Pro to S24 Ultra, loving it, haven't really missed much, and loving the device, Android is so useful or can be simple like iOS too. Been an iPhone user since 4s, not sure if I will ever go back at this point.
@@manny108samsung has a whole ecosystem too,even more considering all samsung appliances that easily connect with your phone.Honestly speaking,it doesn’t hurt to try something different.People are stuck in apple bubble
Video is super crispy, S-pen is for granular tasks, notes, editing, photo capture, of course drawing/ sketching. It's there for convenience not for everyday usage unless you become addicted to it like I am with my tab, I actually use the tab pen on both devices more so.
Here’s a thought. Do a video of you resetting your iPhone and Apple Watch Ultra and actually selling it to someone and shipping it off. Try not to buy it again for 3 months. That would be way more impressive than just putting your SIM card in the Galaxy
Exactly. I know a few people who switch from 15 pro max to S24 ultra, after a few weeks they sold their S24 ultras and went back to iPhone 15 pro max 😄😅
It happen to me several times trough out the saga of Ultras, every time I said this time the Ultra is my choice and after two weeks go back to Apple. A week a go I bought the S24 Ultra and now it’s for sale. iPhone is the best! 😊
@@LuisGGomezPhoto yes, they just work, especially if you have friends and family with iPhones, best to stay on the same brand of phone, for the best experience 👍🏻
@LuisGGomezPhoto what's best is what you like more and feel comfortable using over years of use . That's subjective to the buyers preferences it's not fact.
Spen user here. I use it for art constantly. Rendering shirts, Logos, stickers, video, social media posts, video editing etc... for final print for business. Several apps help to finalize for printing and rendering. It is a massive time and paper saver. Also for 3D sculpting in Nomad. Those are some main functions that really help and motivate the creative processes for me. I totally understand the gimmick aspect if not using for such things. Photo taking, swipe gestures are not exciting. Great video and looking forward to your next video. 2 cents thrown. Cheers.
Just ordered my s24 Ultra yesterday + Watch 6 Classic. Coming from iPhone 15 Pro + Watch Ultra. Not confident about it yet, have tried to switch before and couldn't - so we'll see how it goes. Love your videos Mark!
Switched from iPhone 14 Pro Max and Apple Watch Ultra 2 to S24 Ultra + Galaxy Watch 6 Classic. You won't regret the phone ... it's better than the iPhone in every possible way. The watch though... that's another story altogether 😅
@@shakz7676 Yeah I switched back to the Apple products after about a day. Couldn't blow up my entire workflow and life to gain essentially nothing meaningful from Android (queue the comments lol)
@shakz7074 I agree about the simplicity, and most apps are just better on the iPhone as it takes less resources to support them, so devs can focus on quality. However the iPhone becomes boring pretty quickly. You can't change launcher, you can't change icon packs unless each icon is a bookmark (and then you can't get notification bubbles). Not to mention notification management, that's stupidly bad on the iPhone, worse audio quality through BT as Apple for some weird reason chose to stick with AAC rather than something like aptX, AND the worst thing of all ... Apple doesn't give any of their 1st party apps any love ... the mail app interface hasn't changed since ios 14, the calendar app does not integrate reminders and it's widget is not even interactive (which Apple touted as the stand out feature in IOS 17), the Podcasts and Music apps are missing basic stuff like auto add to up next, etc. You're still paying for these apps when you buy an iPhone, so having them lacking so bad behind the competition in 2024 is absolutely unacceptable. See where I'm going ? 😄
I have a hybrid setup with S24 Ul and MacBook (personal) and Windows machine (work). I ended up installing an app called ARC. It works pretty good between all my devices including my iPad. Thank you for the video. You do a great job. Cheers from Kentucky!
@@michaeljacobs3034sorry I thought I answered this yesterday. It's made by quadren and I can fileshare across platforms, OS and machine. It's pretty slick. Not perfect but it works.
Spen is an excellent tool for translating words or entire sentences in a text. All you have to do is hold him to his word. This is a great tool for people learning a foreign language.
I tried it as well. I struggled with the call quality on S24 ultra. Even the galaxy buds didn’t have the good call quality. I tried the Bose ultra earbuds too. I take a lot of work calls while I walk. Have you found your perfect earbuds match with S24 ultra? Something that gives you a voice isolation like feature that comes along with iPhone and AirPods Pro paired up. Please let me know , will love your inputs around it.
No problem at all with android phones, but my iPhone (apart from size - 15 Pro Max) does everything I need and the integration with my watch and AirPod pros and using iCloud for files across all my Macs and MacBooks are things I don't think I could leave right now. I had the original Galaxy Note with pen and loved it, but I don't know if it now still has the same features as it did back then. It seemed a revelation back then, ten years ago, and was genuinely useful.
Funny, I have rhe Fold 5 and thinking of switching to the s24u just for the integrated spen. However, i have grown to love the small form factor of the fold5.
Quick Share is Android version of airdrop and try the Samsung watch 6 instead of Garmin everything sinks up automatic also magic cases for s24 Ultra and reverse charging for headphones and watch
Be good if you can do an apple to s24 ultra switch video showing the steps, tips on actually doing it etc. Things like email setup, contacts, pictures etc
I've been going back and forth between the Pixel 8 Pro and the S24 Ultra. I have a physical SIM, so switching is easy. Only a matter of running SMS backup right after I switch my SIM. For Pixel, I use the Pixel Watch 2, Pixel Bids Pro. For Samsung, I use the Watch 6 Classic and the Buds 2 Pro. For my TV, I have a Samsung TV with Chromecast. Can use the remote on either phone, both work well. It's seamless. I still cant decide which to stick with. 😂
Can you speak to what is LOST when you converted over? How about your iMessage history, your music, your photos? Anything that is a big "watch-out"? Like your videos - well done.
I was shocked, I thought my SMS would transfer but not iMessage but even those all transferred over! Only thing that did not is iMessage reactions, as the iMessages were regarded as SMS on the new phone. A couple voice notes (from 2019) became corrupted but the rest were fine. Everything else came over fine, call logs, contacts, pictures, I did have to do some organizing with photos because iOS allows you to have a single photo file in multiple albums whereas Android moves the file to a different folder for each album causing some duplicates - I had to choose a single album for each image, and "Tags" in the samsung gallery work in much the same way albums do on iOS, so I set that up as I preferred it... (I have an album for each phone I've owned and group the photos that way, among others) Smart Switch will even download all your equivalent apps from the Play Store and says it'll transfer the data but I skipped that, I didn't know if there'd be any redundant / incompatible iOS related files that got moved and did not want clutter so I did the apps myself.. but yes its not like it used to be they really do make it painless. I do not know if any health data will transfer, that's one thing I am not sure of, but I just starrted over as I dont have a watch anyway and the phone tracks my steps but thats about it
I also used to be an iphone user until I tried my first Note device and I haven't looked back. I use the Spen daily to jut down notes and reminders, measurements and statistics for work; Easily organize them in the notes app. Sign PDF docs, use smart select to copy text from any picture taken or image, just no name a few things. Essential for me.
I switched from S24U to iPhone 15PM as a lifetime Galaxy user. I will just try it for a year and I really like the iPhone camera and especially video recording quality which I do the most.
I'm thinking of upgrading my Note10 plus to an iphone 15PM. How was the transition from Android to Iphone? I'm also debating if I I should switch to iphone 🤔
The best thing the SPen can do is to take notes, jot your ideas, and draw your creative designs all without unlocking the phone. It is just awesome. Saves me so much time without losing the thought that crossed my mind. Has made me capture more ideas and transfer it to final art designs.
Hey Mark, I was wondering, what would you say is the best small phone one could buy with the best cameras that you can get with that size. I like the Samsung s24 but it’s a little bit big
My S24 Ultra is on the way, in part due to your previous review. As to the pen, I think the remote shutter button will be a big help. I often find myself trying to take a photo with one hand, holding the phone high, or out while trying to tap the shutter release with a free finger and not drop the phone. The other hand/arm being used to stabilize myself or prevent falling on my face. Being able to get the phone in position for a photo and being able to release the shutter with the other hand will be a boon. I also see an overall increase in photo creativity with a remote release. As to using it as a pen, it will probably get as much use as the pen on my iPad. That only gets used to add info to a photo. Bird feeder photos could be fun.
I’ve just ordered the s24 ultra after all this hype , honestly not even sure why I’m doing it but time will tell. Still much prefer the look of my iPhone but they sheer hype of the s24 ultra got too much too resist
For the past month I’ve been using the S24 (SD Version) along side with my iPhone 15 Pro Max for a month (as a long time Apple user). Aside from the customisation, I grew to appreciate both platforms for their pros and cons. iOS UI smoothness is really still unmatched by any android phone. It’s not the smoothness within the app, iOS is way smoother transitioning between apps and the UI transitions are so robust, you rarely find any flaws. For the Samsung, aside from it being more customisable, I find that it is way more productive (ability to access the clipboard, DEX Mode, etc.). Also it allows apps to really run in the background (ie. Even for the built in WiFi sharing, in iOS it would turn off in the background after a while to conserve battery). As for the 120hz refresh rate, Samsung gives the full refresh rate and on the iPhone, it feels like it’s in 80hz to 90hz most of the time (again probably to conserve battery life). Anyways, my point is my experience enables me to appreciate both platforms even more. I think I would keep using both (although it would require me to carry 2 phones around)
The best use case for the S Pen is to use it for photo editing in Lightroom, signing documents on the go, and just to note down a quick thing. But, editing photos with the S Pen is the best use-case for it.
In the uk most people use what’s app so iMessage isn’t really a thing. I’ve a few apple products phone iPad watch and AirPods. If I could afford to replace all I wouldn’t mind something else but I couldn’t replace all at the one time so I’ve always just stuck.
Have been an iphone user since 2009, i switched to the s24 ultra this year and i'm glad i did! With Samsung(android) you feel like you're the admin while using your device, while on the iphone...your experience is just limited to being a simple member/user coz it's so restricted. Iphone is a good device, but samsung is just better
Great to see a loyal iPhone user give android/Samsung a go. I love and own an Apple Macbook pro but prefer to use Samsung tablets and phones for one raason - Customisation. Once you truly understand how to use Androids customisation features to your advantage by making full use of apps like Samsungs Goodlock and Nova Launcher, it makes iPhones seem like a bit of a joke.
I recently (2 days ago) just switched to an s24 ultra from having an iphone since the iphone 6. it has been great so far, the only thing i dont like is android auto doesnt have youtube integrated and the emojis of course. Hopefully it doesnt bother me after a while.
What about notifications consistently late vs the 100% reliability of the iPhone? I had an S24 for 2 weeks and I returned it as Gmail and many other apps delivered late notifications, showing up only when unlocking my phone. I ended up not trusting the S24 at all
That's an Android thing and it's a feature. Doesn't matter which android you use, even the Pixel ones. This is also one of the reasons i am going Apple for the first time next year after being on Android Basically forever. Wait until you get failed payments or not supported payment methods through Android. You get to have some serious trust issues with the device.
Love the video as always Mark. I think your e-sim swapping issue is more about the network than the models. I switch between my Samsung and iphone al the time and never have any issues. Love it though, keep it coming. Love your content :) For Air dropping replacement, I use send anywhere. It works a treat :)
If you go back to the Galaxy watch 6 classic, you can start your workout on the watch and now it syncs with your phone seamlessly just like the Apple Watch does which is great because for the longest time. It did not do that but now it does.
I do agree with the use of thr Apple TV app on iPhone. Smart Things on Samsung, when syncing/using with a Samsung TV or Smart Monitor, is great until you need to use a keyboard 😅 Great video as always!
One cool option with the spen is the camera if you are taking pictures with the family you just set it up on a tri pod or against something amd u can use the pens button as a trigger for pictures
I was a Samsung guy from the Galaxy S3 through the S20 FE. I also had the Note 9 and The Note 10 Plus. My journey into Apple began with the iPad Air 4. Then I got a M1 MacBook Air…and then an iPhone 13 and Watch SE-1. Last year I added an iPad 9 base model and the iPhone Pro 15. I have no desire to ever go back to Google, Windows, Samsung or Android! Love the Walled Garden! Change is good…Apple is better these days. A lot would have to change for me to go back to the other side!
Hey Mark! First time here 👋 Regarding the copy/paste to other devices (android/ or samsung) there are apps and samsung has its own well build in the eco system its called Quick share and from my opinnion its does everything what airDrop does and actually quite quicker, Its just THAT fast You can use quick share pushing down the panel options at the upper right side and you will find it there, it can also copy/ paste to other devices really
Yep, but it can't go tofrom MacOS and Android, which I think is what he meant about replacing Airdrop. I think he's still using a Macbook. So LocalSend is the best option IMO.
@@MikeStevens aww yes i feel that, but as usual apple makes that on porpuse, sry for english, but i mean... it would be a lot more compatible cross devices but apple just dont want to make it a reslity
My god you’ll be using Windows next. I went the other way around from OnePlus to the iPhone. I found very little difference if I’m being honest. Love Airdrop and shared clipboard (when it works) but miss simple things like not being able to organise my icons how I want them and being able to close all apps in one go. Why iOS doesn’t have this is beyond me. I also find that the iPhone doesn’t always detect taps, it’s no where near as accurate as the OnePlus was. If you watch anyone use an iPhone on TH-cam you’ll see them tap more than once often. Not when typing just in the OS. If Apple could sort these minor announces out I’d be 100% happy as it stands though I’ll stick with as once set up I find very little difference as I said.
S pen is amazing. Once you get used to it, you would not want phone without S pen. If you chat a lot in whats app or messanger , it is easy to cut any photo or website and share. Also copying text from image, pinning One Time password image so that you could type without going back to other screen etc.
PS If you want to have even more fun with your S24 Ultra - see how it seamlessly integrates with a Chromebook!! Think you'll be really really shocked. I have a £500 OLED touchscreen Lenovo Chromebook which runs Android Apps, has virtual desktops, can run Linux. It's stunning for what most people use their laptops for most of the time!
I got an iPhone 13 Pro Max because my best friend wanted me to get one so I did. Told her I’m switching carriers and phones. She sent me a GIF of means girls saying “you can’t sit with us” it’s a risk I’m willing to take 😎
The family situation is the roadblock for me. I’ve become dependent on Apple Cash. My son, who is in the 6th grade asks me for money every day. It’s so convenient because it works with his schools vending machines.
Great video, Mark. But one thing I did notice was that when you switched to the Samsung the audio quality took a nose dive. I liked everything else I saw, but the audio quality was hard to listen to. When you switched phones I kind of struggled to understand you, which I’ve never done before with your videos. But overall, great post!
Fir the first time in my life I switched to IOS on 15 Pro Max... ohhhhh how I miss my Samsung, can't wait till the lease is over and to get back to Android... Only thing I liked about the iphone most is the FaceID but I can really leave without it...
I’m currently trying to make the switch. I have both in my hands right now. I love everything about the ultra except Battery life and the camera indoor. I feel that I could be much better if Samsung takes it seriously. I will end up selling one of them but I’m not sure which one.
Never been a Stylus guy so my question is..... How much of a drop of do you think there is from the S24 Ultra to the S24+ taking into account the price saving as well?
For me it was opposite, I got iPhone for free from my employer, I was excited for 2 weeks but now it's collecting dust in my drawer. It has a nice camera but it was just not convenient to use it everyday
Fantastic update Mark! Are you going to do a long form piece on Medium? It is good to explore alternative platforms and see what other companies are up to, but having tried various others there is nothing out there which provides a significant leap over iOS and the iPhones. I reckon it is just down to your personal preferences. If you like Samsung, then that’s for you. I know folks like to be tribal and loyal, but hey-ho we are human.
An interesting watch and I am an apple fanboy. however I like your channel this much and this video is actually interesting to me. Be nice to know what happens over the next month. Good job buddy.
If you like edit your photos on mobile phone using Lightroom mobile then it will be much much easier using s-pen for Lightroom sliders rather using your finger, plus your phone screen will stay clean without fingerprints
yeah iphone still better in many ways off course there is good thing about samsung phones no doubt about it but i just think everyday use for most regular people iphone is the best
In contrast I’ve just ordered an iPhone 15 Pro Max as an upgrade from a 13 pro based on my son’s advice (IT expert) and seeing his superb photos and videos from a trip to Dubai the other week. Apple cinema mode is superb. As a family of 6 who have watches, music, news, Apple TV as a group Apple simply works. Add in our MacBook, Mac Minis, studio displays, airpod pros, iPad Pros we like the whole system approach. Two or three times my son tried the top android competitions, then buyers regret came in typically before 6 months, he came back to Apple. Let’s see if your system still gets upgrades in 5 yrs…
@andrewcrossley2448 s24 series gets 7 years of updates, and the s23 series gets 5 years. Something tells me your sons didn't have the top of the line android flagships. BTW I have a samsung tv, tablet, phone, washer, and I can connect to Windows computers wirelessly.
@@jordanjackson8873 not an issue. Each to their own. For us it’s the total system that is the driver. My series 5 watch is such a case where Apple gave me a replacement for £90 as I bought it from them in late 2019, still uses latest software. For my work I use both windows and Mac. My M Macs run rings around my top windows machines with fancy graphics cards for AV and photo editing. I guess people know which ‘tribe’ they are in. For me it’s the integrated system that matters. And my fancy Samsung TV also can cast from my phone, iPads, MacBooks etc. Apple one shared within the adult members of my family is a major plus.
I'm thinking of upgrading my Note10 plus to an iphone 15PM/ 16PM. Want to try Apple for a bit as I need a better ecosystem with integration that works also want better customer service when I need it.
So, basically switching from iPhone to Android, in this case Samsung, is doable. Not everyone should do it but it is doable. Whatever it is we are using, we should be the one owning it, not the other way around. Nice video. Great job.
I need a phone with a stylus for drawing sketches of projects etc for my job. Thats what you use a stylus for. Its better than fingers. For everything else no stylus required. But the only reason id buy the s24ultra is for the stylus. If not for that I'd buy an asus zenphone 11 as that has the headphone jack and is less money, or a pixel as that has better camera tech, or id buy a sony cos im a weirdo that really likes sony phones for their design language, the headphone jack and the micro sd. If sony had a stylus phone id buy it immediately.
I am ALWAYS looking to switch from Apple . I have now bought an s24 ultra and I have a Sony 1v which will be returned to my phone provider under the returns policy I’m going to try to stick to the Samsung … don’t let me down Mark… stick with it … don’t weaken and go back to the locked system that has regular updates , great software support , works seamlessly.. but is as boring as hell! 😂
Sync your Google acount and you will never have to transport files from your phone to the computer. It's much simpler and easy on Android. Not to mention that you can scedule messages you want to send monday mornings worktime. Sold my iPhone 14 pro. Apple IOS is still 2007 old fashion.
I have had note 3 , note 4. And yes S-Pen you end up not using that often. Unless if you are an artist. However everyone who are reviewing S24ultra saying that how nice and useful S-pen is, you’re the first person when says it is not useful. 😊
for the Sennheiser TW4, I had them too, I used them for a couple days with my 14PM, however its just give a stereo experience, which is good, but with the Airpods Pro 2 with Spatial Audio is next level experience plus the extra functions give you a next gen feeling and overall more comfortable, I didnt really like how big is the TW4. this review feels like a paid review...
Have you made this switch? What did you miss from the iPhone?
I do, but im still using my i15 for work, and as 2ndary phone😊for full story u can read my comment❤
Well back when I was rocking an iPhone 11 Pro max I switched to the One Plus.... and the letdown was the SOFTWARE not the hardware. I got tired after 6 months of random apps not working or the need to reboot the phone to connect with my car Android car whatever.

By the way, nice video. 👍🏻
I did the switch last year and it was not a big Deal. I am lucky using the S24 Ultra now! And you are right: using other Devices not belonging to the ecosystem is much easier now.
Apple Watch and Apple Pay.
S-pen is great for photo editing. It gives you a way to be really precise when selecting objects to edit, erase, move or mask.
and for copying text from protected texts
@@amirsaver Copying text with smart select is honestly the most common reason I use mine for.
@@TommyEgan101 A big screen is obviously better, but some people want to use commutes or any downtime they may have throughout their day.

It's nice to see people finally understand
I went from the iPhone 14 Pro to the Samsung S23 Ultra last year and I love it. I’ve had an iPhone since the 4. Change is good.
Gotta agree. Change is good! I started from first iPhone and now have s24 ultra. iPhone is my secondary phone. And I DO NOT miss using it as main device AT ALL
The s-pen is so good when it comes to editing your pictures and videos and also signing documents when needed.
As someone who has a Samsung phone and an iPad and a Mac (since 2020), I simply don’t understand all this brand competition that marketing has taught people that it’s one brand of device or the other. I couldn’t give a Flying F if you’re Apple one minute, Android this minute, next generation Samsung Fold in July, possibly next generation Pixel, and then iPhone16 in October… you’re a tech reviewer, after all. But many commentators seem to have their knickers in a twist over the thought😆. But I do appreciate your efforts to give it a really good go. Because most Apple fan-boys who review Android phones are laughably absurd because unless you spend at least 3 months to work out an Android phone properly without having an iPhone on standby in your back pocket if you’re balls deep in the Apple ecosystem, you’re not giving yourself the chance to work out all the things and new ideas (end of rant😆).
The reality is, you can still stay in the Apple ecosystem when you get a Samsung phone. I wasted a lot of time thinking I had to leave everything Apple when I had Multiplatform devices, and I wasted a lot of time experimenting with third party apps… but at the end of the day, keep your favourite Apple apps, and it’s all about Syncing.
Simply back up your Samsung photos and Files to Google Drive, and on your Apple devices download Google 1 to sync iOS photos to Google photos as well as Apple calendar to Google calendar - and adding Google drive to your Apple devices. The hardest thing for me when I left iOS for Samsung a few years ago, while still having an iPad and Mac, was trying to find things to replace Apple apps that I was used to, and loved! I eventually realised that I didn’t have to. I’m still in the Apple ecosystem, but I’m also in the Google ecosystem and the Microsoft ecosystem and a lot of third parties. Syncing iOS photos to Google photos, and syncing iOS calendar to Google calendar was a game changer. I eventually, over time, moved to other apps. It takes time to forget how we used to do things, and to learn new ways that work and link devices together. I still use iCloud, plus Google Drive, and simple drag and drop files between each other on my Mac. Downloads on my Samsung phone are backed up to Google Drive, meaning I can access them on my Mac and my iPad. Same with photos and video. Your iPad is key here. Bring up a photo or video via Google photos (that you’ve taken on Android phone, that Samsung photos has backed up to Google Photos) on your iPad, and then “save to device”. It is now in iOS photos. You can now access via Apple photos on your Mac. Likewise, your entire iOS photo and video history is now accessible on Google photos on the Samsung phone.
Even if I went back to iPhone with the new generation in October, I’ll still continue syncing so that I can continue to have the freedom to change devices in the future. Good luck with your experimenting, I’ll still be here for your next one😊
Switched to S24 U, sold my IPhone 15 Pro Max and my Apple Watch Ultra. Not missing them one bit.
Which watch did you go for? I've still got my watch ultra so need a decent replacement. Just switched from the 15pro max too!
@@UKL3G3NDZX still looking at options for that piece. Was leaning towards the galaxy watch 6 classic but I read that the 7 series should be out soon. Debating if I wanna hold off till then.
Ah that's good to know. Was looking at Garmin as well but think that's overkill. I'd want something big again because I like the wise of the apple watch ultra. That's been the hardest bit of the switch
@@UKL3G3NDZX yes! Between the build quality and batt life it's a hard choice! I will prob hold till the galaxy watch 7 series and then decide after the release.
@orlandoj.sotozeno1593 got my S24 Ultra with a promotion freebies. I got a free Watch 6 and Buds 2 pro.
Watch 6 is really amazing and faster than the Watch 5. Watch 7, on the other hand, will be released sometime in August or September at the same time they release the fold phone.
I changed this year from iPhone 13 Pro to S24 Ultra, loving it, haven't really missed much, and loving the device, Android is so useful or can be simple like iOS too. Been an iPhone user since 4s, not sure if I will ever go back at this point.
Tell your iPhone friends
Do you have Macbook, IPad and Apple TV also. That is my problem. I have alot o products in the Apple Ecosystem but, wan't to switch to S24 Ultra.
@@manny108samsung has a whole ecosystem too,even more considering all samsung appliances that easily connect with your phone.Honestly speaking,it doesn’t hurt to try something different.People are stuck in apple bubble
Video is super crispy, S-pen is for granular tasks, notes, editing, photo capture, of course drawing/ sketching. It's there for convenience not for everyday usage unless you become addicted to it like I am with my tab, I actually use the tab pen on both devices more so.
Here’s a thought. Do a video of you resetting your iPhone and Apple Watch Ultra and actually selling it to someone and shipping it off. Try not to buy it again for 3 months. That would be way more impressive than just putting your SIM card in the Galaxy
Exactly. I know a few people who switch from 15 pro max to S24 ultra, after a few weeks they sold their S24 ultras and went back to iPhone 15 pro max 😄😅
It happen to me several times trough out the saga of Ultras, every time I said this time the Ultra is my choice and after two weeks go back to Apple. A week a go I bought the S24 Ultra and now it’s for sale. iPhone is the best! 😊
@@LuisGGomezPhoto That’s your opinion and it’s subjective, not a fact.
@@LuisGGomezPhoto yes, they just work, especially if you have friends and family with iPhones, best to stay on the same brand of phone, for the best experience 👍🏻
@LuisGGomezPhoto what's best is what you like more and feel comfortable using over years of use . That's subjective to the buyers preferences it's not fact.
Spen user here. I use it for art constantly. Rendering shirts, Logos, stickers, video, social media posts, video editing etc... for final print for business. Several apps help to finalize for printing and rendering. It is a massive time and paper saver. Also for 3D sculpting in Nomad. Those are some main functions that really help and motivate the creative processes for me. I totally understand the gimmick aspect if not using for such things. Photo taking, swipe gestures are not exciting. Great video and looking forward to your next video. 2 cents thrown. Cheers.
Just ordered my s24 Ultra yesterday + Watch 6 Classic. Coming from iPhone 15 Pro + Watch Ultra. Not confident about it yet, have tried to switch before and couldn't - so we'll see how it goes. Love your videos Mark!
As long as you don’t want the Samsung watch for health and fitness you will be fine with the switch
Switched from iPhone 14 Pro Max and Apple Watch Ultra 2 to S24 Ultra + Galaxy Watch 6 Classic. You won't regret the phone ... it's better than the iPhone in every possible way. The watch though... that's another story altogether 😅
Hi, I have both phones & both watches you have mentioned, I prefer 15pro max & ultra watch as it’s just for simplicity & quicker usage.
@@shakz7676 Yeah I switched back to the Apple products after about a day. Couldn't blow up my entire workflow and life to gain essentially nothing meaningful from Android (queue the comments lol)
@shakz7074 I agree about the simplicity, and most apps are just better on the iPhone as it takes less resources to support them, so devs can focus on quality. However the iPhone becomes boring pretty quickly. You can't change launcher, you can't change icon packs unless each icon is a bookmark (and then you can't get notification bubbles). Not to mention notification management, that's stupidly bad on the iPhone, worse audio quality through BT as Apple for some weird reason chose to stick with AAC rather than something like aptX, AND the worst thing of all ... Apple doesn't give any of their 1st party apps any love ... the mail app interface hasn't changed since ios 14, the calendar app does not integrate reminders and it's widget is not even interactive (which Apple touted as the stand out feature in IOS 17), the Podcasts and Music apps are missing basic stuff like auto add to up next, etc. You're still paying for these apps when you buy an iPhone, so having them lacking so bad behind the competition in 2024 is absolutely unacceptable. See where I'm going ? 😄
Your content is as great as the one and only S24 ULTRA. Thumbs up dude
I have a hybrid setup with S24 Ul and MacBook (personal) and Windows machine (work). I ended up installing an app called ARC. It works pretty good between all my devices including my iPad. Thank you for the video. You do a great job. Cheers from Kentucky!
What does this ARC app do for you that helps you? I am trying to find this app and there are a ton of websites/companies with this name.
@@michaeljacobs3034 it's made by quadren and I can share files with either a Mac, iPad or windows machine to and from my S24U
@@michaeljacobs3034sorry I thought I answered this yesterday. It's made by quadren and I can fileshare across platforms, OS and machine. It's pretty slick. Not perfect but it works.
I am glad you are enjoying your Rumspringa from Apple.
Spen is an excellent tool for translating words or entire sentences in a text. All you have to do is hold him to his word. This is a great tool for people learning a foreign language.
About Spen, the use that I like the most is to fine editing images and videos.
I tried it as well. I struggled with the call quality on S24 ultra. Even the galaxy buds didn’t have the good call quality. I tried the Bose ultra earbuds too. I take a lot of work calls while I walk.
Have you found your perfect earbuds match with S24 ultra? Something that gives you a voice isolation like feature that comes along with iPhone and AirPods Pro paired up.
Please let me know , will love your inputs around it.
I use Bluetooth between my phone and Mac. It's slow but it works one you get seeing right on the Mac
A cheeky thumbs up.👍🏻
(from an iPhone user).
just here keeping an eye on the competition.
I do like the look of the S24 Ultra.
Thanks for the cheeky thumbs up!
Quickshare is the alternative option to AirDrop
No problem at all with android phones, but my iPhone (apart from size - 15 Pro Max) does everything I need and the integration with my watch and AirPod pros and using iCloud for files across all my Macs and MacBooks are things I don't think I could leave right now.
I had the original Galaxy Note with pen and loved it, but I don't know if it now still has the same features as it did back then. It seemed a revelation back then, ten years ago, and was genuinely useful.
Funny, I have rhe Fold 5 and thinking of switching to the s24u just for the integrated spen. However, i have grown to love the small form factor of the fold5.
Quick Share is Android version of airdrop and try the Samsung watch 6 instead of Garmin everything sinks up automatic also magic cases for s24 Ultra and reverse charging for headphones and watch
that color is awesome
Be good if you can do an apple to s24 ultra switch video showing the steps, tips on actually doing it etc.
Things like email setup, contacts, pictures etc
I've been going back and forth between the Pixel 8 Pro and the S24 Ultra. I have a physical SIM, so switching is easy. Only a matter of running SMS backup right after I switch my SIM. For Pixel, I use the Pixel Watch 2, Pixel Bids Pro. For Samsung, I use the Watch 6 Classic and the Buds 2 Pro. For my TV, I have a Samsung TV with Chromecast. Can use the remote on either phone, both work well. It's seamless. I still cant decide which to stick with. 😂
Can you speak to what is LOST when you converted over? How about your iMessage history, your music, your photos? Anything that is a big "watch-out"? Like your videos - well done.
Thanks for the kind words! Nothing so far (don't use iMessage and everything else is cloud/streaming)!
I had a friend switch last year, he transfered literally everything down to some long lost notes and contacts.
I was shocked, I thought my SMS would transfer but not iMessage but even those all transferred over! Only thing that did not is iMessage reactions, as the iMessages were regarded as SMS on the new phone. A couple voice notes (from 2019) became corrupted but the rest were fine.
Everything else came over fine, call logs, contacts, pictures, I did have to do some organizing with photos because iOS allows you to have a single photo file in multiple albums whereas Android moves the file to a different folder for each album causing some duplicates - I had to choose a single album for each image, and "Tags" in the samsung gallery work in much the same way albums do on iOS, so I set that up as I preferred it... (I have an album for each phone I've owned and group the photos that way, among others)
Smart Switch will even download all your equivalent apps from the Play Store and says it'll transfer the data but I skipped that, I didn't know if there'd be any redundant / incompatible iOS related files that got moved and did not want clutter so I did the apps myself.. but yes its not like it used to be they really do make it painless. I do not know if any health data will transfer, that's one thing I am not sure of, but I just starrted over as I dont have a watch anyway and the phone tracks my steps but thats about it
I also used to be an iphone user until I tried my first Note device and I haven't looked back. I use the Spen daily to jut down notes and reminders, measurements and statistics for work; Easily organize them in the notes app. Sign PDF docs, use smart select to copy text from any picture taken or image, just no name a few things. Essential for me.
Navigating the UI with the S Pen is its main purpose, i hate using my fingers to navigate
Same here!
I find the spen works well for something as simple as texting
S pen is great for signing documents and writing on photos (particularly useful for screenshot when trying to give instructions).
Welcome to the open free world.
i think the honesty of the s24u camera while recording this video is phenomenal, whereas apple would just try to glorify everything.
I switched from S24U to iPhone 15PM as a lifetime Galaxy user. I will just try it for a year and I really like the iPhone camera and especially video recording quality which I do the most.
I'm thinking of upgrading my Note10 plus to an iphone 15PM. How was the transition from Android to Iphone? I'm also debating if I I should switch to iphone 🤔
pairdrop works great
The best thing the SPen can do is to take notes, jot your ideas, and draw your creative designs all without unlocking the phone. It is just awesome. Saves me so much time without losing the thought that crossed my mind. Has made me capture more ideas and transfer it to final art designs.
Hey Mark, I was wondering, what would you say is the best small phone one could buy with the best cameras that you can get with that size. I like the Samsung s24 but it’s a little bit big
Green bubbles don't matter on Android because we can't see them anyway haha 😂
The thing about the S Pen is that you can use it as much or as little as you like. It's just another option that other manufacturers don't give you
My S24 Ultra is on the way, in part due to your previous review. As to the pen, I think the remote shutter button will be a big help. I often find myself trying to take a photo with one hand, holding the phone high, or out while trying to tap the shutter release with a free finger and not drop the phone. The other hand/arm being used to stabilize myself or prevent falling on my face. Being able to get the phone in position for a photo and being able to release the shutter with the other hand will be a boon. I also see an overall increase in photo creativity with a remote release. As to using it as a pen, it will probably get as much use as the pen on my iPad. That only gets used to add info to a photo.
Bird feeder photos could be fun.
Just shout SHOOT when you want to make a picture, than it will make one.
I’ve just ordered the s24 ultra after all this hype , honestly not even sure why I’m doing it but time will tell. Still much prefer the look of my iPhone but they sheer hype of the s24 ultra got too much too resist
For the past month I’ve been using the S24 (SD Version) along side with my iPhone 15 Pro Max for a month (as a long time Apple user). Aside from the customisation, I grew to appreciate both platforms for their pros and cons. iOS UI smoothness is really still unmatched by any android phone. It’s not the smoothness within the app, iOS is way smoother transitioning between apps and the UI transitions are so robust, you rarely find any flaws. For the Samsung, aside from it being more customisable, I find that it is way more productive (ability to access the clipboard, DEX Mode, etc.). Also it allows apps to really run in the background (ie. Even for the built in WiFi sharing, in iOS it would turn off in the background after a while to conserve battery). As for the 120hz refresh rate, Samsung gives the full refresh rate and on the iPhone, it feels like it’s in 80hz to 90hz most of the time (again probably to conserve battery life). Anyways, my point is my experience enables me to appreciate both platforms even more. I think I would keep using both (although it would require me to carry 2 phones around)
The best use case for the S Pen is to use it for photo editing in Lightroom, signing documents on the go, and just to note down a quick thing.
But, editing photos with the S Pen is the best use-case for it.
Something like gdrive or google photos could be a short term fix for accessing files on any device. 👍
You can easily transfer photos, doc,... from your phone to your tablet EVEN to PC with QUICK SHARE.
In the uk most people use what’s app so iMessage isn’t really a thing. I’ve a few apple products phone iPad watch and AirPods. If I could afford to replace all I wouldn’t mind something else but I couldn’t replace all at the one time so I’ve always just stuck.
Have been an iphone user since 2009, i switched to the s24 ultra this year and i'm glad i did! With Samsung(android) you feel like you're the admin while using your device, while on the iphone...your experience is just limited to being a simple member/user coz it's so restricted. Iphone is a good device, but samsung is just better
Great to see a loyal iPhone user give android/Samsung a go. I love and own an Apple Macbook pro but prefer to use Samsung tablets and phones for one raason - Customisation. Once you truly understand how to use Androids customisation features to your advantage by making full use of apps like Samsungs Goodlock and Nova Launcher, it makes iPhones seem like a bit of a joke.
I’ve seen the iPhone more than the Galaxy in this video 😂
I recently (2 days ago) just switched to an s24 ultra from having an iphone since the iphone 6. it has been great so far, the only thing i dont like is android auto doesnt have youtube integrated and the emojis of course. Hopefully it doesnt bother me after a while.
What about notifications consistently late vs the 100% reliability of the iPhone? I had an S24 for 2 weeks and I returned it as Gmail and many other apps delivered late notifications, showing up only when unlocking my phone. I ended up not trusting the S24 at all
That's an Android thing and it's a feature. Doesn't matter which android you use, even the Pixel ones.
This is also one of the reasons i am going Apple for the first time next year after being on Android Basically forever.
Wait until you get failed payments or not supported payment methods through Android. You get to have some serious trust issues with the device.
Love the video as always Mark.
I think your e-sim swapping issue is more about the network than the models. I switch between my Samsung and iphone al the time and never have any issues. Love it though, keep it coming. Love your content :)
For Air dropping replacement, I use send anywhere. It works a treat :)
If you go back to the Galaxy watch 6 classic, you can start your workout on the watch and now it syncs with your phone seamlessly just like the Apple Watch does which is great because for the longest time. It did not do that but now it does.
Is there a way of connecting Apple Watch to the Samsung? It’s literally the only thing keeping me on iPhone…
I do agree with the use of thr Apple TV app on iPhone. Smart Things on Samsung, when syncing/using with a Samsung TV or Smart Monitor, is great until you need to use a keyboard 😅
Great video as always!
One cool option with the spen is the camera if you are taking pictures with the family you just set it up on a tri pod or against something amd u can use the pens button as a trigger for pictures
I was a Samsung guy from the Galaxy S3 through the S20 FE. I also had the Note 9 and The Note 10 Plus.
My journey into Apple began with the iPad Air 4. Then I got a M1 MacBook Air…and then an iPhone 13 and Watch SE-1. Last year I added an iPad 9 base model and the iPhone Pro 15.
I have no desire to ever go back to Google, Windows, Samsung or Android! Love the Walled Garden!
Change is good…Apple is better these days. A lot would have to change for me to go back to the other side!
samsung DEX feature on that phone is amazing. A very good desktop experience.
Hey Mark! First time here 👋
Regarding the copy/paste to other devices (android/ or samsung) there are apps and samsung has its own well build in the eco system its called Quick share and from my opinnion its does everything what airDrop does and actually quite quicker, Its just THAT fast
You can use quick share pushing down the panel options at the upper right side and you will find it there, it can also copy/ paste to other devices really
Yep, but it can't go tofrom MacOS and Android, which I think is what he meant about replacing Airdrop. I think he's still using a Macbook. So LocalSend is the best option IMO.
@@MikeStevens aww yes i feel that, but as usual apple makes that on porpuse, sry for english, but i mean... it would be a lot more compatible cross devices but apple just dont want to make it a reslity
S pen is good😃
S pen is good😃
My god you’ll be using Windows next. I went the other way around from OnePlus to the iPhone. I found very little difference if I’m being honest. Love Airdrop and shared clipboard (when it works) but miss simple things like not being able to organise my icons how I want them and being able to close all apps in one go. Why iOS doesn’t have this is beyond me. I also find that the iPhone doesn’t always detect taps, it’s no where near as accurate as the OnePlus was. If you watch anyone use an iPhone on TH-cam you’ll see them tap more than once often. Not when typing just in the OS. If Apple could sort these minor announces out I’d be 100% happy as it stands though I’ll stick with as once set up I find very little difference as I said.
Windows 😂
I use localsend for transferring files, images and supports copying text too.
Thanks!
S pen is amazing. Once you get used to it, you would not want phone without S pen. If you chat a lot in whats app or messanger , it is easy to cut any photo or website and share. Also copying text from image, pinning One Time password image so that you could type without going back to other screen etc.
With the pen you can learn Chinese and Japanese writing which is important especially in Asia.
PS If you want to have even more fun with your S24 Ultra - see how it seamlessly integrates with a Chromebook!! Think you'll be really really shocked. I have a £500 OLED touchscreen Lenovo Chromebook which runs Android Apps, has virtual desktops, can run Linux. It's stunning for what most people use their laptops for most of the time!
Hey Mark, can you go over what it’s like having the Samsung while owning a Mac? Thank you!
I got an iPhone 13 Pro Max because my best friend wanted me to get one so I did. Told her I’m switching carriers and phones. She sent me a GIF of means girls saying “you can’t sit with us” it’s a risk I’m willing to take 😎
You got a good voice 👍
I bought s24 ultra out right 7 years of updating no worries for me stick in i i ios for 12 months hated it
I have both phones I prefer iOS more clean & quick android just looks not on the level gimmicky.
The family situation is the roadblock for me. I’ve become dependent on Apple Cash. My son, who is in the 6th grade asks me for money every day. It’s so convenient because it works with his schools vending machines.
I made that switch ten years ago, my entire ecosystem, including the Samsung watch nowadays, obviously.
Great video, Mark. But one thing I did notice was that when you switched to the Samsung the audio quality took a nose dive. I liked everything else I saw, but the audio quality was hard to listen to. When you switched phones I kind of struggled to understand you, which I’ve never done before with your videos. But overall, great post!
I have that Moft Tripod stand for my iPhone 14 Pro Max. It is an amazing accessory.
Fir the first time in my life I switched to IOS on 15 Pro Max... ohhhhh how I miss my Samsung, can't wait till the lease is over and to get back to Android... Only thing I liked about the iphone most is the FaceID but I can really leave without it...
I find the face id excellent on the S24U, better than the fingerprint.
Please do not go back to the iPhone and explain the process. If you love the iPhone, it is no problem, you don't have to put yourself through this.
Nice video I really can’t change over I’m afraid I’d loose everything just gave you a sub 😊
Thanks for the sub!
Mark, is your iPhone a US version. Why has it got a e-sim.
UK version. I chose the eSim option.
I’m currently trying to make the switch. I have both in my hands right now. I love everything about the ultra except Battery life and the camera indoor. I feel that I could be much better if Samsung takes it seriously. I will end up selling one of them but I’m not sure which one.
Never been a Stylus guy so my question is..... How much of a drop of do you think there is from the S24 Ultra to the S24+ taking into account the price saving as well?
My feeling is that once you have got over the excitement of trying new things and exploring around you will go back to iOS and iPhone.
For me it was opposite, I got iPhone for free from my employer, I was excited for 2 weeks but now it's collecting dust in my drawer. It has a nice camera but it was just not convenient to use it everyday
My feeling is that you have a smooth brain. Lmao
Fantastic update Mark! Are you going to do a long form piece on Medium? It is good to explore alternative platforms and see what other companies are up to, but having tried various others there is nothing out there which provides a significant leap over iOS and the iPhones. I reckon it is just down to your personal preferences. If you like Samsung, then that’s for you. I know folks like to be tribal and loyal, but hey-ho we are human.
An interesting watch and I am an apple fanboy. however I like your channel this much and this video is actually interesting to me. Be nice to know what happens over the next month. Good job buddy.
Snapdrop is working well for me to get around the Universal Clipboard
Thanks!
Could you please make a detailed video of Samsung Dex? I really wonder about the advantages and limitations of the system. Thank you in advance.
If you like edit your photos on mobile phone using Lightroom mobile then it will be much much easier using s-pen for Lightroom sliders rather using your finger, plus your phone screen will stay clean without fingerprints
Why doesnt people just talk about the main phone of the video instead of a click bait just to trash an iPhone?
Very nice video
Remember
Galaxy note 10 lite.
I wish a cheaper s pen support smartphone by Samsung 😅
You will be back for iOS 18 and iPhone 16 Pro Max 😂
yeah iphone still better in many ways off course there is good thing about samsung phones no doubt about it but i just think everyday use for most regular people iphone is the best
In contrast I’ve just ordered an iPhone 15 Pro Max as an upgrade from a 13 pro based on my son’s advice (IT expert) and seeing his superb photos and videos from a trip to Dubai the other week. Apple cinema mode is superb.
As a family of 6 who have watches, music, news, Apple TV as a group Apple simply works. Add in our MacBook, Mac Minis, studio displays, airpod pros, iPad Pros we like the whole system approach.
Two or three times my son tried the top android competitions, then buyers regret came in typically before 6 months, he came back to Apple. Let’s see if your system still gets upgrades in 5 yrs…
@andrewcrossley2448 s24 series gets 7 years of updates, and the s23 series gets 5 years. Something tells me your sons didn't have the top of the line android flagships. BTW I have a samsung tv, tablet, phone, washer, and I can connect to Windows computers wirelessly.
@@jordanjackson8873 not an issue. Each to their own. For us it’s the total system that is the driver. My series 5 watch is such a case where Apple gave me a replacement for £90 as I bought it from them in late 2019, still uses latest software.
For my work I use both windows and Mac. My M Macs run rings around my top windows machines with fancy graphics cards for AV and photo editing.
I guess people know which ‘tribe’ they are in. For me it’s the integrated system that matters. And my fancy Samsung TV also can cast from my phone, iPads, MacBooks etc.
Apple one shared within the adult members of my family is a major plus.
@@jordanjackson8873 yeah most people using samsung product so they should just ditch the shit iphone and move over to samsung phones
I'm thinking of upgrading my Note10 plus to an iphone 15PM/ 16PM. Want to try Apple for a bit as I need a better ecosystem with integration that works also want better customer service when I need it.
So, basically switching from iPhone to Android, in this case Samsung, is doable. Not everyone should do it but it is doable.
Whatever it is we are using, we should be the one owning it, not the other way around.
Nice video. Great job.
I need a phone with a stylus for drawing sketches of projects etc for my job. Thats what you use a stylus for. Its better than fingers. For everything else no stylus required. But the only reason id buy the s24ultra is for the stylus. If not for that I'd buy an asus zenphone 11 as that has the headphone jack and is less money, or a pixel as that has better camera tech, or id buy a sony cos im a weirdo that really likes sony phones for their design language, the headphone jack and the micro sd. If sony had a stylus phone id buy it immediately.
I am ALWAYS looking to switch from Apple . I have now bought an s24 ultra and I have a Sony 1v which will be returned to my phone provider under the returns policy
I’m going to try to stick to the Samsung … don’t let me down Mark… stick with it … don’t weaken and go back to the locked system that has regular updates , great software support , works seamlessly.. but is as boring as hell! 😂
The Moft Creator Kit looks cool, and I’m sure it is, but $150 😬
Its not an Airdrop but what about using something like OneDrive or other cloud storage options for getting files from one device to another?
Samsung has quick share that is quite a superior way of sharing files between phones/tablets etc
Another converted, whoot!!!🎉
Neardrop is,one sided to mac only,but it works
Sync your Google acount and you will never have to transport files from your phone to the computer. It's much simpler and easy on Android. Not to mention that you can scedule messages you want to send monday mornings worktime. Sold my iPhone 14 pro. Apple IOS is still 2007 old fashion.
I have had note 3 , note 4. And yes S-Pen you end up not using that often. Unless if you are an artist. However everyone who are reviewing S24ultra saying that how nice and useful S-pen is, you’re the first person when says it is not useful. 😊
for the Sennheiser TW4, I had them too, I used them for a couple days with my 14PM, however its just give a stereo experience, which is good, but with the Airpods Pro 2 with Spatial Audio is next level experience plus the extra functions give you a next gen feeling and overall more comfortable, I didnt really like how big is the TW4.
this review feels like a paid review...
