    I went from a S23 Ultra to my first Iphone in years...Iphone 14 Pro Max. The Iphone is a fantastic device, build quality and the feel of the phone is great. But that only lasted for 2 months, I sold the Iphone and got myself the new S24 Ultra and I am super happy.

      Had like 8 different Samsungs and 2 iphones the 14 pro and 12 pro. I can say nothing changed and the iphones lag so much it's crazy. 1 year of owning the iphone 14 pro my battery life health is 83 and dies 3 times a day 😢. Samsung just seems to work way better

      ​@user-xy8os4be1t Your experience with the lag on iPhone is what drove me away years ago after owning 3 iPhones plus my family and friends. I switched to Samsung on the S23 ultra now. I'm very happy my phone is 2 years old, no lag, it's still solid no cracks, it just works. Maybe I'll upgrade to the S24.

      The funny thing is that, for all the fuss there's been about many years of software support on recent flagships, the fact is that it's roughly as cost-effective to trade in every 3 years as to run your phone into the ground.
      Prices fluctuate and this number almost certainly won't be 100% accurate, but based on the current S24 Ultra price and trade in values, if you trade in the 3-year-old S21 Ultra you'll spend $750 (before discounts). Do the equivalent deal every 3 years, that's $250 a year, just over $20 a month.
      Trade in an S8 for $100 off and buy for $1200, repeat the equivalent deal every 7 years? Comes out to $171 a year, a little over $14 a month. Sounds a good bit better, but bear in mind that you'll also likely need to replace the battery once or twice, and also if you want the full 7 years of support you'll need to buy at launch for whatever launch deals are on offer, which will definitely not be as good as the Black Friday deals - S23 Ultra started at $900 in November before trade-in, compared to S24 Ultra's best launch discounts being in the ballpark of $1200 before trade in.

    Samsung's recent promise of 7 years of software support for their flagship phones like the S24 Ultra is intriguing. It raises the question of how this will impact the refurbished phone market, traditionally known for rapid price depreciation.
    I recently purchased a refurbished Note 20 Ultra for $600 in 2022, compared to its original launch price of $1299. With security updates ending next year, I opted for a trade-in and managed to snag an S24 Ultra for $599 (pre-order discounts) or $717 after taxes. While the initial price tag might seem high, the potential for 7 years of support offers a different perspective.
    This raises an interesting question: could 7 years of updates slow down the depreciation rate of high-end Android phones like the S24 Ultra in the refurbished market, compared to their counterparts with shorter support cycles? It's still too early to say for sure, but it's a factor worth considering.
    In my case, the upgrade to the S24 Ultra was a no-brainer due to the improved battery, storage, and overall performance, even though my Note 20 Ultra was still a solid performer. However, if Samsung's trade-in offer hadn't been attractive, I might have stuck with my Note 20 Ultra for another year.
    Ultimately, the decision of whether to upgrade depends on individual needs and budget. However, Samsung's move towards longer software support is certainly an interesting development that could potentially reshape the refurbished phone market in the future.
    As my man Floss says, "You have to pay to play" with the big boys in the tech game. Overall if you're not a nerd and don't care about having the latest and greatest. A $700 phone would be more than perfect for everyone. I even tried out budget phones. If you're needs aren't demanding even a $400 phone would make most people happy.

      For me personally the only reason I bought this phone was to upgrade from my 6+ year old phone. I'm not one of those people who upgrades every year, or signs their soul away in a two year financing plan. It's just not necessary in my opinion.
      What sold me was the 7 year update promises, which is probably the only reason I got this phone because I plan to keep it for a minimum of 5-6 years. I also paid in cash and upfront so I wouldn't have debt and to be honest I've never had anything better than a $80 prepaid piece of garbage. I wanted and deserved something better for working my butt off.
      No regrets, honestly anything would've been an upgrade but why not get a flagship phone. The phone I'm typing this very comment on is slower than a tutel, freezes constantly and is awful in general.

I don't finance my phones either and pay for them in full but with a credit card so I can get my 5% cash back and the extended warranty. If you can't afford to pay off the phone in full then people shouldn't be buying things they can't afford.

      Well considering $700 gives you the OnePlus 12 I guess that statement that $700 is "good for everyone" is true since it has the same processor, more ram, more storage, faster charging (with the charger in the box), and a equally good display. The only downside is the camera (and still its not a massive downgrade) and the lack of the S pen

      I understand the debate about smartphone camera quality, especially the pixel-peeping discussions. While some might argue about OnePlus settings or Samsung's reliance on software, for casual users like us, point-and-shoot functionality is often enough. I've tried other phones, but overall, I'm satisfied with what Samsung's cameras offer.

    I got a 512GB version for $650 through Google Fi, so the price ended up feeling pretty reasonable. I definitely couldn't have stomached paying $1300+ for it (which is why I haven't gotten a Z Fold yet, as those only come down to $1300-ish on sale). With the price being reasonable for me, it's a fantastic phone, no real complaints so far aside from the size and weight coming from my regular S21.

    I was worried that coming from an S21 Ultra, i wouldn't notice a difference in performance. My old S21 Ultra still felt snappy and responsive, and I thought the only real draw to the S24 Ultra would be me finally getting a phone with a pen. I've always loved the Note series, but it was always a little out of reach price-wise. When my S24U came in, man o man, did I notice the difference. The screen, the performance- everything about it blew me away. The cherry on top being the free upgrade to 512GB (I've been asked many times why I need 512, and the answer I always give is 'I don't, but I might, and when I do, I'll be ready'"). I'm so happy I upgraded to this phone.

    Hi, I've just got S24 ultra a couple of days back and I think the battery is draining a bit too fast. My friends have S23 ultra and looks like their battery performance is much better (we all went on a trip with no network so we were just doing some photography). Do you think there could be issue with a particular handset? What do you recommend I do?

    Imagine this phone at 600 dollars starting point. One one hand unimaginable in the current smartphone space, on the other an appropriate, arguably expensive price for what's just a pocket computer at the end of the day. But for that price you'd get the top of what Samsung has to offer, with a few flaws here and there but an overall so solid package.

For a tech guy, I'm really impressed with the versatility of this phone. I can also gush about this phone. The feel of it in hand, the display, I really love this display, especially outdoors. I can see clearly without having to shade the phone with my hand. No screen protector, my wife said that she is sure the glass on my phone is probably stronger than any screen protector I may put on. 😅. I love this phone, 1200 be dammed. 🎉

I am no longer the tech enthusiast I used to and aside from the display, battery, and processor speed, I miss daily driving my Note 9. Its because the s24 is noticeably heavier, I keep forgetting it doesn't have a headphone jack,
    I decided to keep the s24 because of the new hardware, 7 years of patches, and because I haven't bought myself something new and nice in a while.

Also prob seems funny to go from mini to basically a tablet, but when closed the samsung folds are almost the exact same width as iphone mini. I cant see myself ever going back to a non-folding phone. The extra screen whenver i need it is just insanely useful! Apple bored me, and not gonna lie all slab phones bore me. The S24U cameras are better, but aside from that the Fold wins for me.

    You get an upvote for saying the phones are too expensive. There are two options for phone companies. 1) Lower the price. 2) Raise the value. $1200 is the cost of a decent desktop computer. There is nothing in the flagship market today that substantially justifies the price. On a side note, I've noticed these phones are priced high in the beginning and then see aggressive discounts near the end of the year. Last year I saw insane Black Friday deals on the S23 - more than 80% off (yes, it was legit). I think the absurd pricing is meant to take advantage of people who obssesively crave the latest.

    I used both devices for a week the iPhone 15 Pro Max and the Samsung galaxy s24 Ultra
    This is my honest opinion. It is true that the Samsung screen is a little larger but the iPhone’s screen is more realistic the colors are natural and it is much better in HDR.
    The sound coming out of the iPhone especially when listening to songs has no competition.
    Photography on the iPhone has no competitor yet. The picture is beautiful and realistic and the video is from another world.
    The iPhone is easy to use in the hand unlike the Samsung Its size is large and the weight of the iPhone this time is light yes light.
    both devices have fast processors for daily and heavy use but I don’t know. I think the iPhone is better especially in games but they are actually great in terms of processors.
    I noticed that the iPhone transfers data faster especially when transferring more than one file. This also applies to the flash memory or hard disk which is much faster after having a USB C port.
    The battery in both devices is very excellent the charging is as well and I did not experience heat in either device.
    In calls on the iPhone you hear the person better and he hears you clearer than on the Samsung.
    I personally do not like the fingerprint on the Samsung iPhone. It is faster and I think it is more secure.
    Of course the emoji is much better on the iPhone. Try both devices and you will believe me. Also there are some applications that are better on the iPhone. I do not know why.
    In the end this is my personal experience with the two devices and I chose to keep the iPhone❤ and I am very happy with my choice.
    Have a nice day 😊

It really goes to show how advanced Samsung is. And how apple just produces the same garbage every year and the apple isheep Keep throwing money at a device and a company that hasn't had any real innovation in years. It's really laughable. I would suggest anybody in the market to make a change to totally do it. Totally love This phone 💯🔥
