It’s a nice combo. Last year I had the s22 ultra + watch 5 + buds pro and I liked it but had some problems with the phone thanks to stupid Exynos (UK). This year I have the iPhone 15 pro max + Apple Watch series 9 + iPad 10th gen. I didn’t get the AirPods as I don’t need the bells and whistles of noise cancellation or Spatial Audio so I use a cheap anker one (my buds pro work with Apple but I can’t disable touch controls). I like the apple ecosystem more due to one thing only, the integration is more reliable. Eg. My galaxy watch 5 had a massive battery drain episode caused by google services running in the background. I had to do a full reset to sort it out. It then happened again and I’ve noticed that every single time I used google assistant on my watch I had to manually shut all the apps to prevent google things from draining the battery on the background. It was annoying as hell, Samsung blamed google, google blamed Samsung etc. I’d like to try a Pixel in the future and see how it compares but they really need to sort theirs chips first.

I'm sorry but the ecosystem argument is stupid at best. Most of us only have our phone our primary computer. I've been part of both the samsung ecosystem and the apple ecosystem.Both of these phones are great for uploading pictures on Instagram. Both of them are great for content consumption, with the S24+ having the slight edge. Both of these phones will give you years of software support. Now it comes down to which operating system you like, and spoiler alert, both Apple and Samsung/Google track your data and sell them to third party companies like facebook/Meta. Its now your choice on what operating system to prefer. Do you like the restrictive approach of apple's walled garden or the freedom android offers you?
I agree.. these flagship phones are always neck and neck, and they're uniformly excellent. I really like pure Android, but when Samsung and others add their crap to it, well, it really ruins the experience for me.

@@de-luxe491 was using s22 ultra for a year, upgraded to s23 ultra when released which was great upgrade. Then after year I swapped to s24 ultra and after using it 13 days was disappointed.

@@tguwop242 Really? For years? What did apple copy for years? Other than apple paying Samsung and LG for making their screens? Clearly you do not know any history about apple or Samsung or what they have done together…
The S24 Ultra is the better overall phone, but it lacks in app optimization by far and media sharing amongst phones other than its own kind. For example, sharing a video through messaging from android to iphone is pointless. An iphone user will never be a le ro see thetrue qualities of the samsung video if sent through text. The iphone user would need ro download a 3rd party app just to come close. But if an iphone user sends out a video to an a droid user via text, it cones out perfect, no decompression or pixelation of any kind.
xda is supposed to be the biggest media outlet for Android devs. Need more passionate people covering the whole custom part of Android like ROMs. Cmon guys.
Not if you trade it on for anther Samsung Ultra. Samsung has much better trade in deals than Apple. If you take in to account all the free stuff I got with the S24 Ultra, it cost me £0 to trade my S23 Ultra to the S24 Ultra.
@@vailmcc free watch, free Disney, free case, free screen protector, £600 trade in. I got 10% off through early reservation and paying through Samsung app. That all adds up to slightly more than the phone cost me, so yeah, doubt as much as you want. Your wrong, I'm right.
@@vailmcc doubt as much a you want. I got £560 worth of free stuff, 10% discount and £600 trade in. The total of that is more than the cost of the S24 Ultra.
Don't believe everything on TH-cam.. This Samsung S24 Ultra is still the top dog ..The zoom on this is still brilliant..Even better since the update as well
Could TH-cam reviewers please stop overlooking the fast that higher wattage faster charger degrades the battery quicker. Fast charge isn’t everything, I prefer my phones battery to not be an issue for a number of years than to be able to charge quickly for 13 months then have terrible battery life.
I never had any issues with connecting my phone to my tablet to my ear buds to sending pics and videos between them using quick share. Even my Samsung book 360 laptop and phone and tablet all connect like three screens so yeah pretty good to me
Many people talk about ecosystem and security in iOs. However, what about you can't go back in iOs many times only when switch the app off. And then go back move is terrible in terms of goin right from the left side only (where on android also from the right side) and it got that slow response for some reason which makes it awkward with pro max. The buttons like really small ones on top of the screen while these should be in some more reachable position on the screen. And why that miniature. Keyboard is nonsense so using onky third part app. Iphone and multitasking is way behind as there is basically no multitasking while having one of the most powerful procesors ever being installed in phones. Apps are actually lagging in iOs which is opposite to what people say. Apps are not as friendly customised in iOs either as compared to android it is harder to.ove around in some apps compared to android 🤔. Not sure, but I think it's just too overrated these days. I mean, it's powerful phone, works gread, feels great using it but I find it many times useless in say to say usage compared to android 🤔 And there are many other things that are not as user friendly compared to android as I get annoyed on daily basis with the question why it's not working, why it's not being developed yet in iOs or such. Alright, one just occurred that when I clicked to customise tesxt I was typing it just can't put the curosor on the spot anywhere easy, not even on end of the lines as I have to click twice or so in order fo get it there. These details are annoying. 🤔 I had Huawei p30 pro prior to IP 15 pro max and I gotta say the Os was so smooth, practical and.uch more user friendly while multitasking was on another level. While paying that much money for IP 15 pro max I'd expect double that of a comfort instead of going back to 2013 -2015 year 🤔 Alr. I'm complaining a lot but definitely not enough 😂 Otherwise I love the premium feeling having this phone. Don't hate me, just expressing my confusion why Ios is so overrated while android is dar ahead in many ways. I know that of course you can find things you like here and the. So, find your own best choice 😉
when you said Samsung is cathcing up to Apple in terms of eco system. He lost me. There is a reason I have not gone back to Apple. But thats me. It's eco system is a weak excuse. No one likes chancge but I much prefer Samsungs innovation. Apple ia a wait and see company and charge their customers extra for the privalige.
Last time I looked, an S24 Ultra is about $100 more than a comparable iPhone. Speaking of paying for the privilege, you'll be paying for your AI suite next year..
Apple is no longer the most expensive; even Samsung laptops make you flick over to see the price of MacBooks. As for the ecosystem, what most Apple ecosystem users mean is that the ecosystem is vastly superior. Having used an MB Pro 16 and a Galaxy Book3 Ultra, I can say that the Mac beats the Galaxy Book by miles in every metric, including value.
I'm an apple user when it comes to computer but I'm a galaxy s user, even tho I'm in the apple eco system when it comes to computers, iPad etc,.. I prefer the Samsung phone and mainly use Samsung ecosystem all day since I own all Samsung smart TVs, Samsung smart washer and dryer and smart fridge, doorbell etc.
Ever since I switched my phone from Flip 4 to iphone 14pro, I cant download free ringtones on random internet. Also, I cant record my calls. Also, the cellular signal is weaker than Samsung. On the other side, I love the face ID and the animations are so smooth on Apple. The battery is pretty good too. I just wish apple add a back button
Stop being stupid and ignorant and get your head out the gutter The galaxy S 24 ultra is better cause you can do more with the phone you’re not paying for a basic phone you paying for an experience the iPhone 15 Pro Max is a waste of money it’s the same features they didn’t add anything new to the phone I’m not paying over 1000 or something dollars for a phone with the same features. It’s not worth the money that they ask for and you, Apple fanboys and customers are being brainwash by Apple, I’m not spending all that money for the 15 promax because I can do the same thing with my 14 Pro. Max is not enough is not enough new features that’s gonna make me wanna get that phone that’s why I’m getting the galaxy 24 soon because it is a better phone and I can do more with the phone I’m not paying for the same phone with the same features. The only thing that Apple change was the price and the name of the phone is still the same features, so what are you really paying for so stop stop being so ignorant and nasty and wake up and realize what’s really going on people are brainwash they release a new phone every single year with the same exact features so so so what makes the 15 pro max worth it if it’s just gonna have the same camera, same features, I’m not wasting my money for the same phone with the same features
Every reviewer talks about the anti-reflective screen on the s24u. But none of them that ive seen have shown how a tempered glass screen protector affects this. Considering that the majority of people use these, it would be good to know before i buy mine 🤣
@@anand.chaudhari that's not a tempered glass one. Almost everyone I've ever met uses tempered glass because it provides way more protection. The plastic anti-reflective Samsung one is basically just to stop scratches. It wouldn't do much for drops.
@jfkelly0 you obviously don't have children regularly knocking your phone around 🤣 If I'm spending £1550 on something, I'm making damn sure I do the most to keep it in good condition. They'll come out with anti-reflective tempered glass screen protectors soon enough.
Stupid display , it felt cheaper with Grains all over , and the Adaptive brighntness is shit it is not lighting up even equal to S22 ultra. I Felt very premium with S22 ultra than S24 ultra. Camera is Shame, definitly improved Video but Photo is shit , and that 50mp and 200mp is Garbage. I reported Banding issues on my phone , am waiting for a refund/replacement but they will not do that . And for your info, your review units are way differ from.what we got. Please get a Indian Varient and do tests please. We have received way more inferior display for sure as I can see bands in HDR too.
For someone who uses the phone for emails, calls, notes, calendar reminders to do lists and pictures of there fanmily on trips, which would be best. @XDA
Apple sandboxes apps for better security, meaning file management is not straightforward. I heard that some Android OEMs may move to sandboxing for better security and even Google has mentioned changing Android filing system with sandboxed apps.
I'd go with iPhone as it actually works. You'll get your notifications on time. You'll get consistent battery life and you'll be able to watch netflix without micro stutters every damm 5 seconds. Also the iPhones actually hold there value unlike Samsung. This is not a biased comment as I wrote this on my S24 ultra and can't wait to get rid. Also reviewer's are useless as they never seem to mention or even notice the million bugs.
Samsung sUltra 24 Won and beat it up to iPhone 15 Pro max very well. I am also going to switch from iPhone to Samsung this month. Sultra 24 I am coming baby.
Use the Dex, and samsung watch to start a smooth transition and if you have moneys add the samsung book 3 or 4 ultra to switch the ecosystem If not you will feel disappointed and will go back into apple trap
Owning an Apple has never interested me. I obtained a Samsung last year and found it to be a disappointment. I'd rather use my Motorola or Redmi and I miss LG.
My phone is 4.5 years old. I'm using a Note 10 plus. Battery life is at 75% and never changed it. It's excellent and have no complaints with my phone. I'll be upgrading sometime this year though because it didn't receive anymore updates. Otherwise I wouldn't upgrade until it fell apart 😊
The average upgrade cycle is 4 years, so the 7 years will probably be relevant only to a minority, probably 10-15%. Halfway through, they should prepare a payment for a new battery. I never keep a phone 7 years as tech can move very fast and a 7-Y-O phone will look ancient. Just go back 7 years and see what phones were like then!
I don't get why so many are downplaying the ecosystem argument. It's a legit thing why many don't feel the need to switch phones on BOTH sides. Replacing a whole ecosystem is NOT cheap, and yes you can switch phones without replacing an entire ecosystem but then your stuck with a sub par experience. Plus flagship phones are so close in tech and abilities that it's not even a big deal which one you snag 🤷🏽♀️ which ties into why the ecosystem argument is legit. If you already have a Samsung ecosystem there's no real reason to switch to an iphone and vice versa
The only thing an Apple Fanboy can do is talk about Ecosystem. Why even bother to review other products on your channel. Save yourself some time and money by just doing Apple product videos. I own both a galaxy and iphone and i have never based my arguement about which is better based on ecosystem. Either be objective in your reviews or dont even bother to produce content.
Samsung is the ecosystem NOT APPLE 😂. Phones ,watches ,tvs ,refrigerators, washers and dryers, rings ,computers ,tablets, Bluetooth speakers, earbuds, smart tags so please stop with this apple ecosystem crap Samsung is tect 😂
I agree with some people in the comments....if you compare phones , just make it a battle between them.... eco-system is not relevant in this comparisson.... but thanks for the vid!👍
Seems like a pretty fair and balanced review to me. I'd go for the S24 Ultra because I prefer android, but I'm sure somebody would be just as happy with their new iPhone if that's their choice
A comment that makes sense! Really just preference lol has been for years. I like both but stuck with iOS since switching years ago. Might go back to Android next time. They do similar things with different advantages and disadvantages (as well as their ecosystems but I don’t care for that stuff I own no other Apple products)
After all is said and done, the camera that matters to me most is the one that can take clear pictures of my cat in low-light conditions even if he is moving. iPhone 15 Pro wins. App for App? The one with the better quality is Apple. Another win. Look, I already knew who the winner was going to be because this is XDA, but I'm still trying to figure out how these reviewers never seem to focus on real photo subject matters. The iPhone is 'good enough', but it was not beaten by much by the Ultra 24. I own an S24 series phone and I can tell you that my personal experience with real day to day photo subjects, it doesn't even come close. S24 series isn't a bad phone, it just isn't as good as a lot of the tech reviewers like to make it out to be.
Not being able to take a decent (usable) photo of moving subject with 2024. "flagship" (S24U)... seems to be something all of these "honest" reviews seem to forget to mention
S24 has more features than the iPhone. S24 is optimized but not as optimized as the iPhone. The S24 is fluid but not as the iPhone. Apps on iPhone looks & runs better than on the S24. THE IPHONE IS BORING BUT IT'S BETTER.
Not at all, I've owned Androids, WebOS, and iOS devices over the years. All I'm saying is that the 24 Ultra isn't the best Android phone, and Android isn't currently as good as iOS.
@@garymurdez4446The statement is actually true. No matter how android elevate their specs and all. Apple is still so seamless than them sad to say 😅 Due to seamlessness it gives apple users a very satisfying experience. If samsung will be optimized as apple, maybe that time they could finally bit apple completely.
All the reason i had for being samsung customer now gone now its feeling more like wannabe iphone,cs its damn expensive have no audio jack or extra sd card,even the lastest android version more similar to ios so why would i want to spend that much to buy samsung instead i can buy iPhone which is a great camera phone have very good battery nowadays...!
Apple only gives $520 for my iphone 14 pro trade in value. Samsung gives better trade than Apple. Iphone value is higher after 1 year but its useless since apple doesnt want to give the customers high trade in value
That's definitely an issue with Samsung phones. Resale value drops like rock very quickly. You'll see the S24 Ultra on sale in about a month.. it's unfortunate..
Deal breaker for me is that you can't schedule a text on apple. If I come up with something that I don't want to forget to send but it's too late in the evening to send I then Samsung is the what I reach for.
I have the entire ecosystem of apple products, then i recently purchased samsung s24 u for fresh air. O boy it's now my primary phone even tho i still wear my apple watch u.😅
Introduction : Which phones worthy of your cash. Conclussion : Based on your ecesystem. No more review guys. It all the same conclussion unless you see android vs android.
In the video comparison section, I would much rather have the full video in each half of the screen than the left half of one in the left screen and the right half of the other in the right screen. Dont want to be comparing to different things of what's essentially the same video on each. Unless they're different videos
Nope.. Part of what I do for a living has been working as a contractor for several projects with Google. Over the years I've had probably 2 dozen managers, which Google seems to have a shitload of, and every single one of them use an iPhone for their personal phone. Most had company phones that were, of course, Android devices, but every one of these folks preferred iPhones. Thought that was pretty telling! The last contract involved the replacement for Android, which is still a ways out..
I switched from app to the s24U. I’m was pretty deep into the apple ecosystem. The thing I miss the most from apple is the ability to send a quality video in a text message. Otherwise s24U works just as good for the stuff I do. Which is scrolling on social media watching TH-cam and playing on the internet.
So if the iPhone was good and the S24 works the same why do you replace the iPhone?? And you loose the ability to send quality photos,airdrop, iMessage, FaceTime and a great support
@@Cubano2031 every Android device has RCS to send quality photos (and iPhones will soon), Quick Share for file sharing and Google Meet for video calls. Quick Share and Meet are also available on any Windows computer (Meet is also available in the Apple App Store), so you're not just limited to Apple devices. Meanwhile, everything you mentioned is limited to Apple only. Plus Galaxies and Pixels now get 7 years of OS/security updates.
I really hope apple has learned from their mistakes and refrain from losing significant fortune. They have good ideas but you cannot control everything, it's a simple lesson that should've been learned before the iphone.
The problem with the AI things is that it's not on device. There's no reason to buy the s24 for the AI, except that they blackmail you into it with the closed software. And even then, it will be paid in a year anyway. So unless it runs on device and not through an internet connection, I will not be considering it in my decisions.
The problem is that "Galaxy AI" is just Samsung marketing. It is really the Google LLM that Samsung rents (and pays for), as Samsung was unable to develop its own learning machine. So I can understand why they will start charging and why some are in the cloud. Apple has been developing its own LLM for years and is releasing it at WWDC soon. Again, Apple is showing Samsung how it is done with its own OS, hardware, ecosystem, and large learning machine.
The only reason I'm not using any apple products is the ecosystem. I also don't use Samsung ecosystem products apart from dex and pass. And the iPhone doesn't have anything like dex still too.
s24 ultra all day the iphone is pathetic i ordered one few months ago and sent it back in the first week yeh the iphone 15 pro max cameras were good but the ios software is a no and still reminds me of when i last had the iphone x nothing has changed
This guy clearly hasn't tried the Samsung ecosystem, or he would have left that out of the video... There's a new, relatively unbiased video about Samsung's entire ecosystem (by the TH-cam channel "Created by Ella") that shows just how big it is, and Apple is not even close!... And this talk about airdrop, yeah quite a bit slower in every category than Samsung's quickshare! I really like how Samsung goes out of their way to try and make other brands work within your collection of Samsung devices, and then Apple does quite the opposite!
If you are coming from an Apple Watch to a Galaxy Watch or a Galaxy Book4 Ultra from an MB Pro M3 Max, you will notice a massive downgrade. Just check out reviews of each. Apple still does it better, and it still needs to be closer. So, the ecosystem is a BIG reason to use the iPhone. For example, I have unlocked my laptop with my watch for years by just opening my Mac.
@@andyH_England So you're a Apple fan... And I've seen the reviews, and they're not unbiased! You're proving the point that most of the comments on here are getting at, it comes down to preference! Samsung does have a bigger ecosystem, is what I said, and there are things in their ecosystem that they do better! If you're living vicariously through TH-camrs opinions, and you enjoy that, keep it up.. I base my opinions off personal experience, my preferences are mine and I don't expect someone else to share it!
@@pianoverg I agree with you; my personal experience is that over the last 10 years the Apple ecosystem has been far superior and it's only lately that Samsung and others are catching up.
Until Apple adopts the ability to do split screen multitasking and add a clipboard, Samsung will always be slightly ahead for me. The build quality of the iPhone 15 Pro Max is unmatched though. Also Apple broadcasting the Superbowl halftime show from the iPhone 15 Pro speaks for itself.
Have a S24U, Watch 6, Buds 2 pro and the S9 Tab. I too have the ecosystem advantage.
It’s a nice combo. Last year I had the s22 ultra + watch 5 + buds pro and I liked it but had some problems with the phone thanks to stupid Exynos (UK).
This year I have the iPhone 15 pro max + Apple Watch series 9 + iPad 10th gen. I didn’t get the AirPods as I don’t need the bells and whistles of noise cancellation or Spatial Audio so I use a cheap anker one (my buds pro work with Apple but I can’t disable touch controls).
I like the apple ecosystem more due to one thing only, the integration is more reliable. Eg. My galaxy watch 5 had a massive battery drain episode caused by google services running in the background. I had to do a full reset to sort it out. It then happened again and I’ve noticed that every single time I used google assistant on my watch I had to manually shut all the apps to prevent google things from draining the battery on the background. It was annoying as hell, Samsung blamed google, google blamed Samsung etc.
I’d like to try a Pixel in the future and see how it compares but they really need to sort theirs chips first.

The S24 Ultra is the better overall phone, but it lacks in app optimization by far and media sharing amongst phones other than its own kind. For example, sharing a video through messaging from android to iphone is pointless. An iphone user will never be a le ro see thetrue qualities of the samsung video if sent through text. The iphone user would need ro download a 3rd party app just to come close. But if an iphone user sends out a video to an a droid user via text, it cones out perfect, no decompression or pixelation of any kind.
xda is supposed to be the biggest media outlet for Android devs. Need more passionate people covering the whole custom part of Android like ROMs. Cmon guys.
iPhone 14 Pro Max has better resale value than 12 months old Samsung S23 ultra
And?
Not if you trade it on for anther Samsung Ultra. Samsung has much better trade in deals than Apple. If you take in to account all the free stuff I got with the S24 Ultra, it cost me £0 to trade my S23 Ultra to the S24 Ultra.
@@dpleech1 Doubt it
@@vailmcc free watch, free Disney, free case, free screen protector, £600 trade in. I got 10% off through early reservation and paying through Samsung app. That all adds up to slightly more than the phone cost me, so yeah, doubt as much as you want. Your wrong, I'm right.
@@vailmcc doubt as much a you want. I got £560 worth of free stuff, 10% discount and £600 trade in. The total of that is more than the cost of the S24 Ultra.

Could TH-cam reviewers please stop overlooking the fast that higher wattage faster charger degrades the battery quicker.
Fast charge isn’t everything, I prefer my phones battery to not be an issue for a number of years than to be able to charge quickly for 13 months then have terrible battery life.
I never had any issues with connecting my phone to my tablet to my ear buds to sending pics and videos between them using quick share. Even my Samsung book 360 laptop and phone and tablet all connect like three screens so yeah pretty good to me
Many people talk about ecosystem and security in iOs. However, what about you can't go back in iOs many times only when switch the app off. And then go back move is terrible in terms of goin right from the left side only (where on android also from the right side) and it got that slow response for some reason which makes it awkward with pro max. The buttons like really small ones on top of the screen while these should be in some more reachable position on the screen. And why that miniature. Keyboard is nonsense so using onky third part app. Iphone and multitasking is way behind as there is basically no multitasking while having one of the most powerful procesors ever being installed in phones. Apps are actually lagging in iOs which is opposite to what people say. Apps are not as friendly customised in iOs either as compared to android it is harder to.ove around in some apps compared to android 🤔. Not sure, but I think it's just too overrated these days. I mean, it's powerful phone, works gread, feels great using it but I find it many times useless in say to say usage compared to android 🤔 And there are many other things that are not as user friendly compared to android as I get annoyed on daily basis with the question why it's not working, why it's not being developed yet in iOs or such. Alright, one just occurred that when I clicked to customise tesxt I was typing it just can't put the curosor on the spot anywhere easy, not even on end of the lines as I have to click twice or so in order fo get it there. These details are annoying. 🤔 I had Huawei p30 pro prior to IP 15 pro max and I gotta say the Os was so smooth, practical and.uch more user friendly while multitasking was on another level. While paying that much money for IP 15 pro max I'd expect double that of a comfort instead of going back to 2013 -2015 year 🤔
Alr. I'm complaining a lot but definitely not enough 😂
Otherwise I love the premium feeling having this phone. Don't hate me, just expressing my confusion why Ios is so overrated while android is dar ahead in many ways. I know that of course you can find things you like here and the. So, find your own best choice 😉
I'm an Android user but for a change i would like to use iOS , idk if I like iOS or not, but I'll definitely try.
You will be bored in a week
when you said Samsung is cathcing up to Apple in terms of eco system. He lost me. There is a reason I have not gone back to Apple. But thats me. It's eco system is a weak excuse. No one likes chancge but I much prefer Samsungs innovation. Apple ia a wait and see company and charge their customers extra for the privalige.
Last time I looked, an S24 Ultra is about $100 more than a comparable iPhone. Speaking of paying for the privilege, you'll be paying for your AI suite next year..
Apple is no longer the most expensive; even Samsung laptops make you flick over to see the price of MacBooks. As for the ecosystem, what most Apple ecosystem users mean is that the ecosystem is vastly superior. Having used an MB Pro 16 and a Galaxy Book3 Ultra, I can say that the Mac beats the Galaxy Book by miles in every metric, including value.
I'm an apple user when it comes to computer but I'm a galaxy s user, even tho I'm in the apple eco system when it comes to computers, iPad etc,.. I prefer the Samsung phone and mainly use Samsung ecosystem all day since I own all Samsung smart TVs, Samsung smart washer and dryer and smart fridge, doorbell etc.
Ever since I switched my phone from Flip 4 to iphone 14pro, I cant download free ringtones on random internet. Also, I cant record my calls. Also, the cellular signal is weaker than Samsung. On the other side, I love the face ID and the animations are so smooth on Apple. The battery is pretty good too. I just wish apple add a back button

Stop being stupid and ignorant and get your head out the gutter The galaxy S 24 ultra is better cause you can do more with the phone you’re not paying for a basic phone you paying for an experience the iPhone 15 Pro Max is a waste of money it’s the same features they didn’t add anything new to the phone I’m not paying over 1000 or something dollars for a phone with the same features. It’s not worth the money that they ask for and you, Apple fanboys and customers are being brainwash by Apple, I’m not spending all that money for the 15 promax because I can do the same thing with my 14 Pro. Max is not enough is not enough new features that’s gonna make me wanna get that phone that’s why I’m getting the galaxy 24 soon because it is a better phone and I can do more with the phone I’m not paying for the same phone with the same features. The only thing that Apple change was the price and the name of the phone is still the same features, so what are you really paying for so stop stop being so ignorant and nasty and wake up and realize what’s really going on people are brainwash they release a new phone every single year with the same exact features so so so what makes the 15 pro max worth it if it’s just gonna have the same camera, same features, I’m not wasting my money for the same phone with the same features
Videos like this is why iOS 18 will be so extraordinary
Every reviewer talks about the anti-reflective screen on the s24u.
But none of them that ive seen have shown how a tempered glass screen protector affects this.
Considering that the majority of people use these, it would be good to know before i buy mine 🤣
Invest in Samsung anti reflective screen protector
@@anand.chaudhari that's not a tempered glass one.
Almost everyone I've ever met uses tempered glass because it provides way more protection.
The plastic anti-reflective Samsung one is basically just to stop scratches.
It wouldn't do much for drops.
@@Scottbutcher7 yes it's not the best but you get some you lose some
The whole point is that you won't need a screen protector, it's supposed to be resilient against fine scratches
@jfkelly0 you obviously don't have children regularly knocking your phone around 🤣
If I'm spending £1550 on something, I'm making damn sure I do the most to keep it in good condition.
They'll come out with anti-reflective tempered glass screen protectors soon enough.
I have both phones and I equally enjoy what both phones have to often. However, in terms of resales the iPhone will give you a better return.
Stupid display , it felt cheaper with Grains all over , and the Adaptive brighntness is shit it is not lighting up even equal to S22 ultra. I Felt very premium with S22 ultra than S24 ultra. Camera is Shame, definitly improved Video but Photo is shit , and that 50mp and 200mp is Garbage. I reported Banding issues on my phone , am waiting for a refund/replacement but they will not do that . And for your info, your review units are way differ from.what we got. Please get a Indian Varient and do tests please. We have received way more inferior display for sure as I can see bands in HDR too.
Magsafe only interferes if you are connected to a magsafe device, if just the case, you are fine
Samsung didn’t even do the basics right.All S24 ultras are struggling from grainy display & banding.
Man think twice! Apple has great resale value! Smart choice is this point also quality issues come with korean products..
For someone who uses the phone for emails, calls, notes, calendar reminders to do lists and pictures of there fanmily on trips, which would be best. @XDA
I've yet to see a reviewer talk about the awful file management system on iOS.
yup its bad
Apple sandboxes apps for better security, meaning file management is not straightforward. I heard that some Android OEMs may move to sandboxing for better security and even Google has mentioned changing Android filing system with sandboxed apps.
I’m thinking of changing from 10 years of iPhone to a 24 ultra any advice on making the move or sticking with apple would be appreciated
Yes Apple things work together seamless because all there addons cost way more then Samsung things
I'd go with iPhone as it actually works. You'll get your notifications on time. You'll get consistent battery life and you'll be able to watch netflix without micro stutters every damm 5 seconds. Also the iPhones actually hold there value unlike Samsung. This is not a biased comment as I wrote this on my S24 ultra and can't wait to get rid. Also reviewer's are useless as they never seem to mention or even notice the million bugs.
Samsung sUltra 24 Won and beat it up to iPhone 15 Pro max very well. I am also going to switch from iPhone to Samsung this month. Sultra 24 I am coming baby.
Use the Dex, and samsung watch to start a smooth transition and if you have moneys add the samsung book 3 or 4 ultra to switch the ecosystem
If not you will feel disappointed and will go back into apple trap
LOL! See you back in Apple Land in a year or two! 🤣🤣🤣
Apple refines features that Android manufacturers push out so they can sell more units...
Owning an Apple has never interested me. I obtained a Samsung last year and found it to be a disappointment. I'd rather use my Motorola or Redmi and I miss LG.
SO stupid to pay so much for a phone that has 7 yrs of updates, but a non removable battery that you'd be lucky to get 2 or 3 yrs out of.
Yes.. I don't think I've ever met someone that's kept a phone even 5 years..
@@vailmcc My Xcover6 Pro should, and the batteries are so cheap (same ones as the original xcover), I can run mine 24/7 if I want.
My phone is 4.5 years old. I'm using a Note 10 plus. Battery life is at 75% and never changed it. It's excellent and have no complaints with my phone. I'll be upgrading sometime this year though because it didn't receive anymore updates. Otherwise I wouldn't upgrade until it fell apart 😊
@@kendregab7328 You obviously don't use your phone as heavy as I do.
The average upgrade cycle is 4 years, so the 7 years will probably be relevant only to a minority, probably 10-15%. Halfway through, they should prepare a payment for a new battery. I never keep a phone 7 years as tech can move very fast and a 7-Y-O phone will look ancient. Just go back 7 years and see what phones were like then!
Masturful review
"The s24 ultra is a great phone but..... but.... but.... "
Sounds like an Apple fan boy
it only means that they can't work with other devices but apple devices.
that's not an eco system, it's a prison.
Samsung's ecosystem is every bit as good as Apple's, while the S series phones have far greater flexibility than any iPhone.
Who would've thought that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra has better photo/video capabilities than the latest and greatest Apple iPhone!
But Samsungs 100x is trash. In fact their zoom isn’t much better than apples now
S24 Ultra all day, next slide.
I don't get why so many are downplaying the ecosystem argument. It's a legit thing why many don't feel the need to switch phones on BOTH sides. Replacing a whole ecosystem is NOT cheap, and yes you can switch phones without replacing an entire ecosystem but then your stuck with a sub par experience.
Plus flagship phones are so close in tech and abilities that it's not even a big deal which one you snag 🤷🏽♀️ which ties into why the ecosystem argument is legit. If you already have a Samsung ecosystem there's no real reason to switch to an iphone and vice versa
Didn't like your video ... obviously pro Apple with, can Samsung better it with any new features ..
The only thing an Apple Fanboy can do is talk about Ecosystem. Why even bother to review other products on your channel. Save yourself some time and money by just doing Apple product videos.
I own both a galaxy and iphone and i have never based my arguement about which is better based on ecosystem. Either be objective in your reviews or dont even bother to produce content.
iPhone for sure is the only phone we should to buy. All cheap android phone are just nasty and trash
Samsung is the ecosystem NOT APPLE 😂. Phones ,watches ,tvs ,refrigerators, washers and dryers, rings ,computers ,tablets, Bluetooth speakers, earbuds, smart tags so please stop with this apple ecosystem crap Samsung is tect 😂
I agree with some people in the comments....if you compare phones , just make it a battle between them.... eco-system is not relevant in this comparisson.... but thanks for the vid!👍
I love how the word 'pair' doesnt have an R in it. "peh"
😂😂😂
Seems like a pretty fair and balanced review to me. I'd go for the S24 Ultra because I prefer android, but I'm sure somebody would be just as happy with their new iPhone if that's their choice
A comment that makes sense! Really just preference lol has been for years. I like both but stuck with iOS since switching years ago. Might go back to Android next time. They do similar things with different advantages and disadvantages (as well as their ecosystems but I don’t care for that stuff I own no other Apple products)
Definitely prefer iPhone!
After all is said and done, the camera that matters to me most is the one that can take clear pictures of my cat in low-light conditions even if he is moving. iPhone 15 Pro wins. App for App? The one with the better quality is Apple. Another win. Look, I already knew who the winner was going to be because this is XDA, but I'm still trying to figure out how these reviewers never seem to focus on real photo subject matters. The iPhone is 'good enough', but it was not beaten by much by the Ultra 24. I own an S24 series phone and I can tell you that my personal experience with real day to day photo subjects, it doesn't even come close. S24 series isn't a bad phone, it just isn't as good as a lot of the tech reviewers like to make it out to be.
Not being able to take a decent (usable) photo of moving subject with 2024. "flagship" (S24U)... seems to be something all of these "honest" reviews seem to forget to mention
Had the s24U for 2 weeks. It's impossible to take pictures of my kids, any bit of movement it's a blurry mess. Still photos are fantastic though.
same with s23u,the only drawback and it is not small for ppl like us...
Isn't happening ....
THIS! EXACTLY! Glad I wasn't the only one in these comments who KNOWS this first hand!

@@MyPhone-xp4vwhe said pictures, not video
S24 has more features than the iPhone. S24 is optimized but not as optimized as the iPhone. The S24 is fluid but not as the iPhone. Apps on iPhone looks & runs better than on the S24. THE IPHONE IS BORING BUT IT'S BETTER.

@@vailmcc by your replays it looks like your an apple fanboy. I see you every coments responding.
Not at all, I've owned Androids, WebOS, and iOS devices over the years. All I'm saying is that the 24 Ultra isn't the best Android phone, and Android isn't currently as good as iOS.
@@garymurdez4446The statement is actually true. No matter how android elevate their specs and all. Apple is still so seamless than them sad to say 😅 Due to seamlessness it gives apple users a very satisfying experience.

I have both, but s24 it’s way better
All the reason i had for being samsung customer now gone now its feeling more like wannabe iphone,cs its damn expensive have no audio jack or extra sd card,even the lastest android version more similar to ios so why would i want to spend that much to buy samsung instead i can buy iPhone which is a great camera phone have very good battery nowadays...!
How much will the S24 Ultra cost after a year, compared to the iPhone 15 Pro Max?
Why?
Why do you even care if you upgrade to another Galaxy anyway?
@@GK-ut9nc he doesn't own a galaxy. You can tell by his response.
Apple only gives $520 for my iphone 14 pro trade in value. Samsung gives better trade than Apple. Iphone value is higher after 1 year but its useless since apple doesnt want to give the customers high trade in value
That's definitely an issue with Samsung phones. Resale value drops like rock very quickly. You'll see the S24 Ultra on sale in about a month.. it's unfortunate..
Everything I own is apple but I am at that point where it has become boring! Just like my wife.

Narrow win is not enough; Apple ecosystem is top notch. Waiting on iPhone 16 Pro Max will be the top Dog & king 🤴 with AI features
Deal breaker for me is that you can't schedule a text on apple. If I come up with something that I don't want to forget to send but it's too late in the evening to send I then Samsung is the what I reach for.
You can with shortcuts
another hater talking falsehoods and subetivity, I wonder, how much will samsung pay him to talk against the iphone
S24 ultra seems worse than s23 ultra. Cameras are worse, worse in the hand to hold and basically no hardware upgrades.
Not even a close comparison. S24 Ultra is leaps ahead.
Light years ahead
I just tested out both phones and the s24 ultra simply is the better camera
Noooo, as a s24u user, I can confidently say, "It's not great in terms of cameras."
But in other areas, yes, undisputed king.
Had both, they're both great phones, but the S24 isn't 'light years' ahead. If it were, everyone would buy one..

Dont want to be comparing to different things of what's essentially the same video on each. Unless they're different videos

an answer to the iphone ?
well that's literally every android phone in existence.
Nope.. Part of what I do for a living has been working as a contractor for several projects with Google. Over the years I've had probably 2 dozen managers, which Google seems to have a shitload of, and every single one of them use an iPhone for their personal phone. Most had company phones that were, of course, Android devices, but every one of these folks preferred iPhones. Thought that was pretty telling! The last contract involved the replacement for Android, which is still a ways out..
@@vailmcc yea well, ofcourse in the us there's this strange phenomenon that people use imessage 😄
Why are consumers praising s24u more than the tech reviewers coz I have noticed the shift
Because Samsung have a lot of fanboys
S24 ultra king 👑👑
But no longer the king
I switched from app to the s24U. I’m was pretty deep into the apple ecosystem. The thing I miss the most from apple is the ability to send a quality video in a text message. Otherwise s24U works just as good for the stuff I do. Which is scrolling on social media watching TH-cam and playing on the internet.
So if the iPhone was good and the S24 works the same why do you replace the iPhone?? And you loose the ability to send quality photos,airdrop, iMessage, FaceTime and a great support
@@Cubano2031 every Android device has RCS to send quality photos (and iPhones will soon), Quick Share for file sharing and Google Meet for video calls. Quick Share and Meet are also available on any Windows computer (Meet is also available in the Apple App Store), so you're not just limited to Apple devices. Meanwhile, everything you mentioned is limited to Apple only. Plus Galaxies and Pixels now get 7 years of OS/security updates.

Do not believe all this S24 Ultra hype, I had it for 10 days...I didn't like it
U probably just didn't even know how to use it and get the most out of it. Because of u did... You wouldn't be posting this
I really hope apple has learned from their mistakes and refrain from losing significant fortune. They have good ideas but you cannot control everything, it's a simple lesson that should've been learned before the iphone.
The problem with the AI things is that it's not on device. There's no reason to buy the s24 for the AI, except that they blackmail you into it with the closed software. And even then, it will be paid in a year anyway. So unless it runs on device and not through an internet connection, I will not be considering it in my decisions.
You can activate "on device" AI processing.
Good advice! Samsung's going to begin charging for the AI soon as well, which turned me off too..
The problem is that "Galaxy AI" is just Samsung marketing. It is really the Google LLM that Samsung rents (and pays for), as Samsung was unable to develop its own learning machine. So I can understand why they will start charging and why some are in the cloud. Apple has been developing its own LLM for years and is releasing it at WWDC soon. Again, Apple is showing Samsung how it is done with its own OS, hardware, ecosystem, and large learning machine.
The only reason I'm not using any apple products is the ecosystem. I also don't use Samsung ecosystem products apart from dex and pass. And the iPhone doesn't have anything like dex still too.
s24 ultra all day the iphone is pathetic i ordered one few months ago and sent it back in the first week yeh the iphone 15 pro max cameras were good but the ios software is a no and still reminds me of when i last had the iphone x nothing has changed
I Dont have need ecosystem bull shit 👎 S24ULTRA IS BETTER
Samsung galaxy after 6-7 years of regular use☠️ Starts lagging, software and hardware problem issues
The only thing that keeps an iPhone as my daily is the watch ultra I like it better than the galaxy watches
This guy clearly hasn't tried the Samsung ecosystem, or he would have left that out of the video... There's a new, relatively unbiased video about Samsung's entire ecosystem (by the TH-cam channel "Created by Ella") that shows just how big it is, and Apple is not even close!... And this talk about airdrop, yeah quite a bit slower in every category than Samsung's quickshare! I really like how Samsung goes out of their way to try and make other brands work within your collection of Samsung devices, and then Apple does quite the opposite!
If you are coming from an Apple Watch to a Galaxy Watch or a Galaxy Book4 Ultra from an MB Pro M3 Max, you will notice a massive downgrade. Just check out reviews of each. Apple still does it better, and it still needs to be closer. So, the ecosystem is a BIG reason to use the iPhone. For example, I have unlocked my laptop with my watch for years by just opening my Mac.
@@andyH_England So you're a Apple fan... And I've seen the reviews, and they're not unbiased! You're proving the point that most of the comments on here are getting at, it comes down to preference! Samsung does have a bigger ecosystem, is what I said, and there are things in their ecosystem that they do better! If you're living vicariously through TH-camrs opinions, and you enjoy that, keep it up.. I base my opinions off personal experience, my preferences are mine and I don't expect someone else to share it!
@@pianoverg I agree with you; my personal experience is that over the last 10 years the Apple ecosystem has been far superior and it's only lately that Samsung and others are catching up.

2024 with my Galaxy S24 Ultra
Until Apple adopts the ability to do split screen multitasking and add a clipboard, Samsung will always be slightly ahead for me. The build quality of the iPhone 15 Pro Max is unmatched though. Also Apple broadcasting the Superbowl halftime show from the iPhone 15 Pro speaks for itself.
