Real world I've tested my S24U against most of the other top flagship models from friends and family, and I totally disagree with you that it's not the best in anything. It has the best screen hands down. It has the best feature suite hands down. Just because YOU don't use some features, doesn't mean they aren't vital to others and hands down a better feature than other phones rendition of features. The SPen jumps to mind. The SPen can do sooooooo many more things than 99% of users realize it can do. There are hour long SPen feature tutorials which move at light speed. Most people just don't know all it can do. And that is the case with many other features on this phone. The sound is as good as any phone I've heard, or better. The gaming experience is unsurpassed. The battery life is longer than any other phone I've ever used, including my S23U. And I keep my phone on full brightness. This phone is the full package and I defy anyone to approach me with their flagship phone, sit down side by side and put them through their paces. I've won handily with everyone I've tried this with, especially CRapple people.
Hahaha, I agree. Just got the phone a few days ago and it's absolutely amazing. Although, the image processing in some situations really shines the camera in a bad light. I don't recall this happening with my previous phone (S21 Plus). I hope they fix this in a software update. Too much contrast, blowing out the light in images with shadows a bit too much.
@@deepenwadhwa4027 The image post-processing is horrendous. That's the only thing I think is objectively bad about this phone. Otherwise, it's outstanding. Best display and customizability by far, an S Pen for digital art in the go, a beautiful design, amazing battery life, and it feels great un the hands. The only other thing I dislike about the phone is a matter of opinion-its flat display. I was adamant about keeping my S22U because the flat display looks outdated, imo. But with $1100 off switching to a better carrier, I thought about it for a week and the increasing bugginess of my S22U eventually convinced me to switch. Sometines it would freeze or not make nor receive calls unless I restarted it, and it would take minutes to restart. It only ever happened when I needed to make calls ASAP. And, again, the freezing increased in frequency. Otherwise, I wouldn't have sidegraded. Because imo, the S24U is not a significant upgrade from even the S22U. It does have better HDR, though.
did s24 ultra have green line screen issue? or any screen issue? I wanna buy Samsung phone right now and I want s24 ultra or s24+ but don't know what to choose 😢 I'm scared bcz there are some people have screen issue on s24 ultra ..
Bro, why are you lying? What do you mean you can't see the difference side by side when using other phones when you're referring to the anti-reflective gorilla armor glass? I was using the S23 Ultra and I pre-ordered the S24 Ultra so I've been using it for 3 months and yes, the phones are different. Especially the display when reading emails outdoors. C'mon.
Samsung recently enhanced battery performance way way better in the May patch which was rolled out a day ago. Unfortunately your video was uploaded a day behind and you missed out on the battery enhancement updates in this video. Right now the battery performance on the S24 Ultra is so freaking good.
for me that coating is a life changer, I am a software developer and i work in office and basically semi light places and thwere less reflaction and darker screen makes day night difference than my s23 ultra.
The views you are getting are criminally low. You are doing everything correctly, nay, perfect. Why is it this low? I've been following you for a couple of years now, I don't get it.
I have an s23 ultra and the s24 ultra..the performance is noticable but only slightly. I have noticed that occasional stutter is no longer there. I know its not a big deal hahq but i did notice. Great video man.
Can you explain the face unlock issue further please? I don't understand why you would be bothered by the fingerprint sensor disappearing from the screen once it has recognised your face and unlocked, the phone is already unlocked so you want the option to have two forms of unlocking simultaneously? Loved this video btw, very clean and informative 💪🏼
Can you explain the fingerprint icon and face unlock issue? If you authenticate with your face, you won't need a fingerprint icon or to scan it as the phone is unlocked? Have I missed your point here?
I guess he means using the sensor after the Face unlock occurs. Which is silly because Samsung let's you skip the lock screen altogether after a face unlock. Just nitpicking over extremely minor details.
@@AzureRT456 Is there a reason you'd want to authenticate twice, if not just a second security option? I've heard this complaint before and it still seems odd so just checking I'm understanding it correctly lol
@@Tackyauto it's just youtuber nitpicking, I have face unlock enabled but I have it set to ignore the lock screen and take me to wherever I last left off. If Sam is just gonna use the fingerprint sensor then why didn't he just use it in the first place? bit silly innit
Fingerprint scanner is better as works through tempered glass screen protectors now. My 23 ultra had to have a cut out or weird gel where the scanner was. The 24 doesn't
Your videos are the most underrated . They are so well-made premium videos but do not get the attention they deserve. I wish you more views are subscribers Sam !
This is my first time watching anything on this channel. I was so impressed by the quality of the content I subscribed the minute I finished watching the video.
I can see you spend a lot of times to choose colours, and tools to make these videos. A huge congratulations because its amazing. Also the background always fantastic so yeah you're on the top in my list because I always enjoy every single second when I watch your videos. Thank you for your job and your time. Peace. 😊
Watching this on my S24 ultra but its kinda sad to see no one talking about the grainy display issue others see. Mines has it but nowhere near as bad as other pictures ive seen. Outside of that literally the perfect phone unless I'm on a gray background at 2 am with low brightness 😭.
Just to add my own views, because i bought the ultra pretty much at the presentation in January. short version: user experience 99.9% matches my user experience with my old Note 20 ultra longer version: The phone looks better (which is actually important to me). Not as much as people (youtuber) try to make out .. with the more squared off edges, the flat screen and so - those design aspects are actually minor or irrelevant. What DOES make a difference is not having the huge camera mountain of the Note 20 ultra in the rear. The screen itself feels nearly the same to me. I know it has a lot more brightness (not so relevant in my country - we do not have too much sunshine), better colour presentation and whatever else .. but for me, a casual user - it is 100% the same. (and that includes the rounded corners vs. the flat screen ... user-wise, no difference) The battery lasts - what a surprise - for a similar amount of time. Yes, i am sure, i ended my "day" on the Note at around 20% .. and i end my day on the 24 ultra at 45% .. but none of that makes a difference. I put both to "protect battery mode" at 80% .. charge them when i get home and leave them on stand by for the night and ready to be used for the next day. The AI stuff .... not useless .. but useless to me, i dont do photos with a phone. The camera ... same thing .. not taking photos on a phone - they all suffer from processing, no matter what phone. Size and weight - it is heavier than the Note 20 ultra, but not so much that it makes a difference. Materials - this one is actually a big one. I appreciate the inclusion of the MUCH tougher display glass, that seems "nearly" on par with sapphire (but not quite). I do not know how shatter resistant it is .. because i tend not to drop my phone(s) ... but i guess that it is glass - and so it can crack. My connections and hotspot connectivity "seems" noticably better on the 24 ultra compared to the note. I do not know why .. but i get a consistant and good connectivity on the 24 ultra in rooms and places where i did not get a signal on the note 20. Connecting to the hotspot also works much better. my conclusion is: The 24 ultra is a good phone. However .. Samsungs (and most phone makers) improvements are only miniscule. Ever since the .. i think the s10 (about that time) .. Samsung has not made great leaps anymore. I could easily do everything i am doing today with a S10 5G. Much like i could do everything with an iPhone X today or a Huawei Mate 40 ... phones have plateaued.
I dont think the s10 had esim. To be fair that's a big deal. Allows you to have dual sim phone, and great if you travel internationally. My note 20 ultra has a memory card slot, which I value greatly. Especially when I dropped an old phone in water and it fried. But stuff on my memory card was saved. I'll stick with my N20U till it stops working. To your point not much improvement since the N20 to warrant an upgrade
@@sambeckman oh, ok. I still don't get the problem, just swipe and it's unlocked? Seems so benign, but I guess, it defeats the purpose of using an android if you can't dial it in to the way YOU want it. It's just not an issue for me.
I am thinking of switching over from my iPhone 15 pro to the S24 Ultra. My concerns are, does it start lagging later on down the line, How secure is it with using banking apps (is it similar to iOS?), is the UI smooth like iOS? I want a different experience to Apple but also would like to retain some of it's useful features that i mentioned above. Thanks
My girl has the S23 ultra and it's still a beast. No daily lag. But every phone sometimes randomly lags. She had the 14 pro I convinced her to make the switch to Android and she absolutely loves it!
Android has an issue which no one seems to address: Very poor cameras on everything but Pixel, premium Samsung and premium Sony. Everything else is junk and you'd think that in the budget segment(the highest sales volume market) would see better cameras, CPU and design but they seem to churn out the same phones year after year but with new names and designs. I mean look at the CPUs: they all are basically still equal to a SD 690/695 which came out 3 years ago I think. No 7 series and no 8 series gen 1 etc. If Apple makes the SE good and affordable alot of these OEM's will see a massive loss, especially Samsung.
Performance is clearly better on the S24U and better optimization. I don't care about your points either i use them both. S24U is really fluid and i try to make stutter i can lol. I did make the S23U stutter on heavy load a couple of times. Performance difference aint drastic but its there for sure
Great video, Sam! Love the quality of your clips. However, as someone who owned the S24 ultra and then returned it after a full month of daily use, I can't agree with "honestly, it has no issues whatsoever". For me, the cameras have been hit or miss (mostly the latter, unfortunately); even turning off all post-processing has not improved the results. Portraits of my kids were a mess in almost every situation, as were selfies where more than 2 people were in the frame. And there were multiple software bugs (apps not loading properly or hanging, like TH-cam, Gmail, Microsoft apps etc.). To add insult to injury, note the display issues so many people are complaining about. Even the sales rep I returned the phone to mentioned that a lot of unhappy customers are returning the device. So yeah, not quite a success for Samsung, unfortunately, especially when you consider the price. Hopefully they will have a better proposition next year.
i have changed my icon pack and when the phone goes in aod it doesnt invert colors like it does in the lockscreen. So my icons are black but their color should become white in aod for me to be able to actually see them. It doesnt. do you have a solution to this?
IMO, Samsung should have opted for a higher MP 3x sensor, and should have retained the 10x optical zoom camera. That way, we'd have got a better 3.1x-9.9x digital zoom range as compared to previous generation phones without compromising with the amazing space zoom capabilities. And needless to say that we'd still be having 3x-6x portraits range in this setup too, so a win-win there too.
That's not quite right! The display is the gamechanger! In daily use, the added value of the new anti-reflective! Both outdoors and indoors! This is definitely a new league! You inevitably see that with LG's new OLED TVs as well. If you compare the new display directly with another smartphone or tablet, then the difference is significant.
For me, about haptics (which I consider fundamental), my top is: 1-Iphone (pro max has better than standard iphones but stop on top 1) 2-Xiaomi 3-Samsung and Pixel (both have their respective pros / cons)
Not totally in agreement with all your views but can I just say: great video production !! Top notch quality reviewing indeed. Will follow you just on that.
Waste of money S24 ultra better off buying S23 ultra with no so ultra price. Everything is the same no difference and yes camera quality is little better in S24U. Also there are lots of other good options in the market which have evolved to surpass the samsung and apple.
smart choice would have been to go with the 0.5x 1X 5x 10x. The 3x is useless bc the sensor is so small that most of the time it crops into the main sensor to get light
Yo, i'm thinking of moving away from apple to samsung and in to the s24 Ultra. After using it for a while do you miss apple in anyway? any lag on s24? smooth UI like iOS?
@@TheGunatungas I am really liking the S24 Ultra its fast and fluid but I still use the iPhone 13 for Apple Pay and certain apps like instagram. Even after all these years, instagram on android is not as polished as I would like. Make the change, its liberating breaking out of the Apple garden and trying something new for a change.
0:34 Jesus Christ... I hope those 100 out of folder/grouped apps are organized in some sort of way lol I bought my mom an unlocked A55 and the first 10 minutes was me re-organizing it for her and instructing her how to manage where to put apps lol
I love the quality of Samsung products overall. I'm watching on my Z fold 3 and its still going strong. Idk if i can go back to a conventional smartphone 🤭 Having a big bright oled on my persons has changed my train commutes for the better. I cant go back to Netflix on a normal phone lol
Hey I have the z fold 5 and I am worried whether the screen will break without any particular reason, is your one okay and how many years has it been since you started using it?
Love my s24 ultra but i have to agree the fingerprint sensor and face unlock are completely useless. Only thing i miss from apple is flawless faceid. Im back to old school pattern security.
Feels nice to finally be able to say this: Watching this on my S24 ultra

That's not quite right! The display is the gamechanger! In daily use, the added value of the new anti-reflective! Both outdoors and indoors! This is definitely a new league! You inevitably see that with LG's new OLED TVs as well.
If you compare the new display directly with another smartphone or tablet, then the difference is significant.
For me, about haptics (which I consider fundamental), my top is:
1-Iphone (pro max has better than standard iphones but stop on top 1)
2-Xiaomi
3-Samsung and Pixel (both have their respective pros / cons)
Any green light after 2 years?
Not totally in agreement with all your views but can I just say: great video production !! Top notch quality reviewing indeed. Will follow you just on that.
Had mine for a month. Switched from iphone and I'm loving it with no regrets whatsoever
Waste of money S24 ultra better off buying S23 ultra with no so ultra price. Everything is the same no difference and yes camera quality is little better in S24U. Also there are lots of other good options in the market which have evolved to surpass the samsung and apple.
smart choice would have been to go with the 0.5x 1X 5x 10x. The 3x is useless bc the sensor is so small that most of the time it crops into the main sensor to get light
plls provide wallpapeer link along with your videos
Thumbnail phone wallpaper?
What a beautifully made video.. its a delight to watch.
the 3x tele on s24 ultra is really bad. Im genuinely surprised.
Change from an iPhone 14 pro to this and I love it
Why are the icons so tint 😅
I think some of us don't know this, if you on your home screen, double tap on side of your screen will lock your phone
Upgraded from an iPhone 13 and I am enjoying the change
Yo, i'm thinking of moving away from apple to samsung and in to the s24 Ultra. After using it for a while do you miss apple in anyway? any lag on s24? smooth UI like iOS?
@@TheGunatungas I am really liking the S24 Ultra its fast and fluid but I still use the iPhone 13 for Apple Pay and certain apps like instagram. Even after all these years, instagram on android is not as polished as I would like.
Make the change, its liberating breaking out of the Apple garden and trying something new for a change.
waiting for the s25 ultra since my bf bought me the pixel when it came out :(
what icon that u used? how can it so small..

Can you make a S23 ultra review? How the phone is after 1 year.
He is the best TH-camr ... the quality, the content, the format, the reality....Love from INDIA dude :)
Watching on my beast S24 ultra ❤💪
0:34 Jesus Christ... I hope those 100 out of folder/grouped apps are organized in some sort of way lol I bought my mom an unlocked A55 and the first 10 minutes was me re-organizing it for her and instructing her how to manage where to put apps lol
Did you root it?
Watching from my 24 Ultra 😊
This aspect ratio is PERFECT.
It is already 3 months 😅wow the time goes very fast
Galaxy s24+. switched from an Iphone 15 Pro. Glad I switched to the light.
That thumbnail is clean!
You need to turn on extra brightness to get the full 2600 nits of peak brightness
Where I get thumbnail used wallpaper?
Coming soon 👀
@@sambeckman please give
flat screen ?
I love the quality of Samsung products overall. I'm watching on my Z fold 3 and its still going strong. Idk if i can go back to a conventional smartphone 🤭
Having a big bright oled on my persons has changed my train commutes for the better. I cant go back to Netflix on a normal phone lol
Hey I have the z fold 5 and I am worried whether the screen will break without any particular reason, is your one okay and how many years has it been since you started using it?
How's the durability so far?
You spying me? Was just searching review later video about the phone 😂
Is it worth?
Whens the amazing and high quality review on Oneplus 12?
What a beatiful video wow, you're awesome bro!
Great review. watching from my s24+, not the ultra though. But I love this phone .
I need the wallpaper from the thumbnail! 😍
It's from an app I'm currently working on. Coming soon!
Great phone watching on S 24 Ultra 512 gb
Nobody cared dude
Nobody cared dude
I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max, I’ve had iOS for years and instead of getting a iPhone 15pm , I’m considering getting a s24U
QUE PASA CON LA SELFIE PORQUE SE VE MEDIO BORROSO?
Does anyone know the icon packs?
It's my very own Drops Icon Pack - play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.drops.icons
Just got my s24 ultra + galaxy watch 6 for free.. great deal
Great phone! I thank God so much for giving me this phone in Jesus Christ Mighty Name!
Watching this on s24 ultra 😊😊😊
Love my s24 ultra but i have to agree the fingerprint sensor and face unlock are completely useless. Only thing i miss from apple is flawless faceid. Im back to old school pattern security.
The fingerprint sensors great wtf do you mean??? It's the best fingerprint sensor available on a flagship the face ids not tht grt tbh
