7:20 Hi Ho Young, I just wanted to let you know that Samsung's latest One UI update allows users to use the 9-band EQ (7-band for the speaker) for the built-in speaker, so it's definitely worth checking out. It really brought out the bass and mids of the speaker when I tweaked the EQ settings. Try it out for yourself.
@@hoyoungwonHere are my personal EQ settings, from left to right. These settings slightly diminish the loudness but make the sound fuller, similar to that of an iPhone. +10, +5, 0, -5, 0, +5, +10
Great to see a review taking into account how the device fares semi-long term. Still using the Note 20 Ultra since launch and can't live without the MST payment feature, honestly such a lifesaver in those niche scenarios. It's a shame subsequent international variant devices are missing this, especially in the UK.
@hoyoungwon Yeah, had to get the battery replaced a few months ago but it's still going strong. I believe it's still getting security software support, albeit at a reduced capacity.
I literally just checked your channel to see if you posted a new video, then I got the notification for this one! The s24+ is the best phone of 2024 in my opinion, I'm waiting for the s25 though 😊
Came at a perfect time. Ive been looking at this phone specifically as an upgrade to my decrepit iphone xs and i have been wondering whether or not to wait for the s25. Not nearly enough content about it. I think its a cop for me
@csmeitt1188 Ahh I brought it works fine for now my phone broke soo i had to change got it for 700 dollars i think it's worth that and one ui 7 is released it's giving good battery too
07:20 Agreed. Speakers sound very tinny compared to iPhones, but even to last year's S23 series. Even the base model has more bass. Very disappointed about such unnecessary downgrade. Also the screen's glass does get scratched very easily, but that's since S23.
@@DominickGrasso is the Exynos version of the s24 okay? I’ve been reading reviews & it mentions over heating & poor battery life. Any recommendations/ suggestions are welcome
I have a 13 pro max I am in the same boat. I think the s24+unless you want the s pen - and very slightly larger screen. I just can’t justify 1299 for a spen I will never use.
I use both (but the standard version), got a few likes & dislikes compared to iphone. When it comes to recording stuff, I always go with my iphone (video + sound quality just better) but when it comes to work chats & youtube, I will always go with my android. It probably just me but to this day I haven’t found out how to make youtube screen small while I access other apps, usually it just got thrown into the island and it sucks
1️⃣45W is pretty nice, using 25W on my 13 Pro and 33W on my Nothing Phone(1). 2️⃣S24+ has the nicest Galaxy design. It would be better with a Snapdragon in every country. Also, this year SD 8 Gen 3 seems not be as efficient as SD 8 Gen 2...🤔. 📌Good phone anyway with rounded corners, OneUi.
Thanks for the useful content.. I'm thinking of buying Xiaomi 14T Pro instead, do you think it would be a good choice? Especially in terms of speaker quality
Bhai... January 2025 me S25 aa raha hai...wait karlo...at least Snapdragon 8 Gen4 milega Gaming & Battery efficient... S24+ india me Exynos 2400 -aata hai processor is good but not excellent like 8 Gen4.... Main bhi wait kar raha hun....😅
@@manishkandpal2596who said Samsung will launch s25 powered by sd gen 4.. Recently samsung launched there premium tablet s10 with dimensity 9300.. So there is a chance Samsung could go with dimensity 9400 or exynos rather than SD for cost cutting in s25 series. Personally i think dimensity will be better choice
hmm i thought S.Korea was getting the snapdragon version, thats strange home country is getting the exynos..so maybe samsung has some great software optimization in the future for the exynos...and tbh exynos takes better pics and videos then the snapdragon
Does anyone know how to fix the camera quality issues? I traded in my iphone 12 pro max and the s24+ pictures are so soft and grainy. Im kinda bummed. Photo looks amazing in the view finder but once its saved it looks like crap
how much did samsung pay you? Ive had it 5 minutes and cant stand it. I wish Tmobile would have kept selling OnePlus phones. you get the same specs without all the samsung bloat. I have it
It has the worst camera sensors at this price. Samsung needs to change all the creepy sensors used in S24 and S24+ They are backdated and cant fight toe to toe with pixel, Xiaomi or Apple
What's your wishlist for the S25 series? 🗒️
Bigger battery
65w charging
snapdragon
a better looking design
@@DeadPiixxel bigger or better ?

thanks man.
ill wait another tips from you.
It's not an EQ issue, speakers themselves lack on low frequencies (bass)

Kudos to you for still using the Note 20 Ultra! Must be keeping up well

This is one of the best video ive seen yet about this.
Man your homescreen setup looks so clean
The speakers were terrible but the update has totally transformed them! Use bass booster on the equaliser ('sound quality and effects' in settings)
Not teriblre they are great speakers
This colour looks damn good. We only get purple and onyx black which is my favourite.
I use wifi almost. It is easily getting 8hrs SOT of 70% battery. It is not so bad
Also i bought it with just 660 $

Great video man, could you show us a tutorial on how you set up your homescreen?

Help me decide whether to go for S24+ for 65k or 770USD, wait for S25, which might come with elite, or just go for this.
Wait for it... I got the S24+ and I'm stuck with this exynos chipset at least for 2 years

Is that the Google maps equivalent? Whats it called? Can you make a video comparing both?
How are you doing with the battery?
Snapdragon 8 Elite will be huge for the S25 series. I will wait.
Great video! I have an iPhone 12 and want to switch to galaxy but I dont know wich one the 24 plus or Ultra 😅

Great battery life with 5-6hrs SOT??? You are joking right?
The cameras and the fast charging make me lean more towards buying the Xiaomi 14. Why do you prefer the S24 over it?
These 3 things:
+ Samsung Pay
+ Modes & Routines
+ Multitasking
@@hoyoungwon thanks. yea thats true samsung has some nice software advantages. its one hand operation+ that i will miss

Hi Ho, do you use scene optimiser or not. Thanks. Great vid btw
No I don't have it enabled!
Thanks for watching and you can call me Ho Young :)
Samsung has committed to give 7 year OS update with S24+, but not sure if the Exynos is capable enough to deliver it.
of course it is
The faster you push current thru your phone, the shorter the batter life is....
24 plus user here. I love everything about 24 plus except its front camera video😥
Good point ☝️

Is this because of exynos in s24 or even with sd?
@@comedyman112 maybe cause of exynos.
when i use s23 and s23+, the picture and video quality is amazing.

It might be an exynos processing problem because these issues are present on the s23 series which were all snapdragon
