Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra - What the heck is Samsung doing !? 🤦🏻♂️

- The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra had a lot to live up to! With the S23 Ultra still considered one of the best smartphones I've had, this was always going to be difficult to beat. But despite some of the issues I shared here today, is the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra still the best smartphone in the market today? 🤔
In this video I took the Galaxy S24 Ultra to Manchester United's stadium, Old Trafford, which was a great experience.

Personally, I’ve had zero issues with my S 24 ultra since launch. I’m on T-Mobile in Los Angeles and always on mobile data and I don’t use social media apps except UA-cam.
Same. YT and movie streaming apps and a few games.

Hi, almost same. I live in uk n have iphone 15 pro😅 using it only for youtube n whatsapp. I havent used any social media till now n m 33 years old. Thinkin about buyin S24 ultra for change.
Bro did you have any lags in video playback in Netflix or in mx player?
@@kishoreaj5391 a little when connected to mobile data or a crappy WiFi when mobile wasn’t available
Sorry mate but the battery on the S24U is an absolute beast. The phone is perfect.
I can confirm the battery is good. Lasts me the whole day 9/10 times and that is with battery protection on (80% battery percentage max).
S24 Ultra user, really satisfied with it but to be honest I have noticed worse battery performance. Hope they fix it ASAP.
Same
Yep my battery life has gone shit since the last update
Is there a way to downgrad3? @@Chris34720
@@Chris34720 the samsung seller told me to not install the updates if it just newly released, wait untill the update is fully optimise. sorry for my bad english
Same battery issue,hope they will fix whit new update in June if not I have to coming back on my 14 pro max which it much better battery life!
I am using this channel to train my ears.
I am now a brazilian focused to learn english and I am doing this while I watch video about technology, my favor theme.
So thank you very much my brazilian friend hehe
Awesome!! Glad I am helping, despite my 'dodgy' accent 😅
Hi Alex. I use the S24u since release and didn't have any Issues. Or I didn't recognize them😂.
My iPhone lays in my Cupboard and i don't miss it...
Great content like always and congratulations for 🎉 101k subscribers 😊.
The quality of the video is really great I'm blown away every time. Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience.
As always great videos Yoiur channel is always the first one I watch when looking for tech reviews
I really appreciate that! Not just saying this, your support is amazing mate. I am sorry if I missed a few of your comments really, I read them all and think "I will respond to it later when I have a few mins 😅" Thank you so much!!
For the S Pen triggering swipe gestures on the device during photo editing sessions, you can actually turn off the S Pen's ability to activate swipe gestures in the settings. Personally, I've turned off S Pen swipe gestures on the screen for my college studies.
You make some amazing real time usage of the devices stuff, without being biased, really appreciate that.. Thanks for bringing such indepth reviews for us :)
My pleasure!! this is so cool to hear. Have a lovely rest of your day
Watching on my 24 ultra ❤
Same, shame the camera processing is absurdly unreliable and bad at times and I've also had the battery issues mentioned in the video.
nice!
Me too, there mate.
Had no issues on my 24ultra 🌞
Same here and nothing to complain about 😊
Your videos are great. I really enjoy your content. You mentioned you had a fix for battery life issues at the beginning of this video but I either missed it or you didn't mention it. I assume it has something with clearing the cache. Is the fix you're speaking of clearing cache partition or something different? Thanks
Using a S24 Ultra, great experience, no issues at all (literally none, weird because some people have issues.) Updates will come that will make the phone even better (or fix it for the people that currently have issues), for sure.
I got poor battery life with my yellow S24U. Switched to a iPhone 15 Pro max and it was not night and day but definitely last a lot more. People screaming about S24U battery life in every iPhone video now seems funny to me. Also customization is not as bad as they say in IOS.
Heeeery I'm having horrible battery issues on my S24U too. Do you know why that would be?
I literally bought it for the battery, everyone said it was massively good.
@@ToyotaAristo
Alex you are ☀️ awesome video as always, love your channel for your samsung and tablet content, keep up the good work 😎
Thank you so much ☺️ will do 👊🏼
Good points there! Congrats.
I’m in India and I am torn between the ultra and plus models. What’s your take? Since I don’t use stylus if I am pick the ultra I would do so only for the more efficient SOC. Is that right to do? Or the plus is good enough for 3 year usage. FYI iPhone 13 Pro is my current phone.
best thing to do is buy a phone just before a new one comes out. like with the s23 ultra it usually sells for 1200 but can be bought new for 660 if you know which sites to go to
assisto você em ambos os canais, Alex! que triste que a Samsung ainda não consertou esse problema da bateria após tantos meses. por aqui, continuo na saga aguardando o 23U a 4k, já vi o S4U por pouco mais de 5k. nessa diferença, vc considera que o 23U ainda é mais vantajoso? abraço!
☀️
Always appreciate your honest reviews, Alex. Don’t ever change. 👍🏻🙏🏻
Man, theres a setting to turn off the gestures while using the s pen, so it will not interact. In the OneUI setting panel and in Good Lock One hand operation too. No problems with the S pen at all.
Good point! Will turn that off 👊🏼
🌞 I support your Portuguese channel e o canal em inglês também! Keep the good work, Alex!
Great review. 🌞
Excellence in the video and picking up the issues is truely visible... Hatsoff for picking up the issues that no one really care... My battery life after the april update is the worst...
Yeah, I usually give phone some time to settle but clearly there’s something wrong here specially when compared with the 23 ultra when he first came out…the software on this feels a little bit rushed.
@@AlexGTech exactly, even I compared the both.... something is wrong
Thank you for reviewing your experience.
Personally, I moved from an S21 Ultra to the S24 Ultra about a week and a half ago and have only experienced a couple of issues.
Initially, I watched about 8 to 10 tips and settings I should try on my new phone. After about 2 days, I removed/reset many of those fancy tweaks since they were sucking battery. I also minimized the AI features where I could as I do not appreciate being told what I like and dislike. Yes so the battery has been all over the place but has now settled down to well within my full day charge/use expectations.
The second issue has been text messaging. On setup, I must have been sleeping and noted that Google Messages highjacked Samsung Messages. I disabled Google Messages and started using Samsung Messages. It seems that it does not receive/display conversation/group texts correctly. I only get individual texts which appear dispersed in the view/app.
The screen is outstanding in the sunlight although at the expense of the battery.
.
The camera is outstanding, though I love the S21 camera too.
.
The video, ya, I might just learn video. UA-cam videos have been very helpful in learning setting and how-to's.
.
A couple of apps run very smoothly and/or behave much better in S24 Ultra when compared to the S21 Ultra.
And though I am not sure why yet, but the S24 Ultra seems to have a half bar to bar better reception/connection. That is I seem to get a bar to two bars now, instead of zero/no connection to one bar. We don't have 5G locally.
The jump is definitely worth it!
Thanks again for sharing your experience!!
Once again a very nice review ❤
Happy 100k ❤💙
Let’s goooooo!!
Excellent review 👌
4:00 I've noticed this stuttering when switching lenses. I played about with multiple settings for a while, and I found 4k60 with auto FPS switching, was the issue (even though i was testing in bright sunny contitions). When I turned "Auto FPS" off it switched lenses much better.
With all the processing power on tap, could they not see that some goes into sorting out little details like this? 😡
Regarding the battery life, I've had a one or two random days where I think I've had the issue mentioned here but generally it's been pretty solid.
aha! Thanks so much for that tip, will definitely play with that setting and see if it improves! It might also help an issue I had where it would automatically go to 1080p when I was running the camera and a second app (Notes) when recording a video.
Honestly, I still have the April update and my battery life is insane! Last much much longer than the iPhone 15 pro max. For me, S24 ultra unlocked version on the Verizon network is working amazing! No issues at all. Camera, I have noticed a few hiccups but nothing more than what the iPhone 15 pro max does as well. Looking forward to the May update and new camera updates as well
Alex hi, could you let me know if battery issues were fix already now in June ? Im actually deciding between s24U and 15 Pro Max...Thanks in advance !
Great honest video like well deserved
Thanks Chris!!
@@AlexGTech it's good to be honest and straight to the point
Hey Alex ‼️
Big fan! Saw your comment on X that your battery improved after cleaning cache partition, but still it remains a trash battery for many of us..
Idk why Samsung is soo ignorant this time in pushing updates
Yes, such a weird update. It was meant to fix some of the camera issues but even that has had little impact. But the battery was awful after that. I did read somewhere that the cache thing doesn't work for everyone. And thank you! 🥰
@@AlexGTech Appreciate your reply ‼️. Keep doing great work alex. Much respect and love
What does clearing cache partition do?
I still love my s23u, keeping it for years to come.😊
I've been getting about 5 hours screen time easily, and I max out my charging at 80% to help protect the battery.
Interesting that yours is dropping so quickly. Does your S24 Ultra have the SnapDragon 8 gen 3 processor in it or the Exynos? I'm assuming the latter since you live in western U.K. ... am just wondering if there's some dramatic difference between the efficiencies of the two.
All around the world S24 ultra gets Snapdragon
I am 100% satisfied with my switch from years of iPhones, to the galaxy S2 four ultra. It has been bulletproof so far with no crashes. Amazing options with regards to customizing.
Dude my battery lasts a very long time.. I'm very very shocked. I love it. I have no idea what your problem is on the battery.. Nothing wrong with my battery and you are definitely being so overly dramatic 😂
I’m happy for you 🥹
On a serious note… I’m not alone man, just Google s24 ultra battery issues or April update battery issues
I have zero issues with mine since I bought it. Maybe people should stop watching pornhub.
I think it depends on people’s usage. Some apps really consume much more battery and not everyone uses those apps. Battery life is really subjective unless there is a widespread issue.
Just to add to what you said... What people don't know is there are so many apps on Android that anyone of them could not only be draining but causing heating issues because it's not optimized to your phone. I know no one wants to hear this but I already experienced this with a UA-cam app on my s24 plus. As soon as I got an update for the app issue with heating was gone.
dudes gotta make content and crib about every little thing and flip flops...its his job...gets him the views and subs. these are first world problems but how can you trust a tech channel when the dude himself is so conflicted with himself between s24U and iPhone. one day "This is the best phone I have used" to a few days later "why I am disappointed with the phone but I still continue to use it so you will get 10 more videos of the nitpicking I will be doing" Kudos to anyone to use whatever they want but he is the most confused UA-camr with the first world problems. But all aside he is a very humble guy! I have no issues with my IP15PM and S24U that are BIG enough that halts me from my productivity, that would make me go on social media and complain about - masking it as "I'm sharing my experience with you".
I agree with the jolt when switching from 1x to 3x to 5x etc
It makes the video not as smooth. I hope Samsung addresses this problem with an update
Really wished Galaxy AI was used there to make it smoother
They should fix it on their end if it's their fault soon. I say that because if you've been on Android long enough you know sometimes the apps you have might not be optimized to your device. Could explain why not everyone is having problems with heating. I feel ( now I could be wrong ) like if it was their issue almost everyone would be having the same problem.
I doubt their AI is the issue. I'm pretty sure it's hardware that needs to be addressed.
Congrats on the 100k subscribers mate!
thanks so much!! 🙌🏼 Took me a while but so happy!!
There's no issue on my 24 ultra,except for the days I may watch 2 or 3 movies on it. But even so I'm getting 7 to 8 on screen time. I believe it should be faster then it actually is. But no movies it'll last forever. Nice video.
Incredible... I hope we get a consistent experience across the board, it might be that April update, I am really hoping this gets sorted soon
Nice video Alex 😎
Thanks Mary 😊 have you seen the new iPads?
@@AlexGTech Not interested in them Alex but I will watch the content about them 😂
Alex, good to see and hear you again. I fear Samsung has lost its way, and I blame the horrendous 6.1 update as the start of it all.
I'm rocking an S23 Ultra which was pure perfection and power before I installed 6.1.
Now the battery life is only slightly better than my trusty old S8+ .
After spending a fortune on my S23 Ultra I am not a happy bunny at all!
I can see Apple gaining some new customers because of this.
There's a lot of S24 users not happy either with camera performance.
Very poor Samsung, you have dropped the ball bigtime!
Excellent upload by the way as usual 🤜🏼🤛🏼.
Sorry to hear about your S 23 Ultra, that’s a shame. I hope they get it fixed very soon. And thanks so much for the kind words 🙌🏼
Battery is ok for me, issue is that there is no macro camera mode,
Battery life can be extended when lower lcd resolution and extra dim is used and of course power save
I'm just about to receive my S24 Ultra but I've heard from other channels that if you are having problems with the battery life, you should try completely emptying it for a week or so. Just my few cents. Thanks for your video.
🌞☀️Always enjoy your videos!! I also use the Samsung Ecosystem in my dad to day life and have relagated my IPad to reader duty. Thanks for all the info!
That is awesome! Thanks so much! Yes, right now it's so practical for getting work done. Samsung are doing a great job. Will test the new iPads soon but I am not sure it can be as practical for what I do
Same issues here too. But it's a great phone. Loving it
4:19-4:22 - is this from ultra to 5x zoom in iPhone 15 Pro Max?
I love my s24 ultra. It lasts all day and I don't have any battery issues. I also didn't do the samsung automatic transfer of app, settings and data. I would say this would have something to do with the battery issues some users may be experiencing? What do you think?
Great content. As for the ecosystem, the only thing you really need is a monitor and a smart TV. Just use Dex. That's on the s24 ultra or s23 ultra. And there's your ecosystem. And of course, a galaxy watch. This will save you about 2 to 3 thousand.
I am an S24ULTRA user and I cannot think of any other phone right now. I do have an issue with my screen which is that it has a grainy texture and it doesn't affect my 95% of the time but during low light conditions it does seep into my experience and makes it a bit bad. Even with that, I will not change the phone. I really hope that they can fix this issue with an update or something.
Could you do a video on how the s23 ultra battery holds up seems they dont even last a day now but I'd like one but not if they dont even last a day
I also have a lot of issues with the apps - they do crash a lot, which is mind-boggling! My Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is also in Titanium Violet, but with 512GB of storage.
Battery also starts to deteriorate.
Yes, I don’t know what they’ve done with this April update, but I hope they fix it soon
@@AlexGTech Why don't you try taking a PRO Mode video, which can reach up to 4K Ultra HD, but at even 120 frames per second?
mine haven't crashed once, no battery issue too.
I've gotten the latest update on mine and I don't have any issues either
@@teemo5409 I have way too many issues after millions of updates! I'm not from Mars, there mate!
That wipe cache really works ,from 100% I have 76% now and 2 hours on screen and 4 hours screen off.Before was maximum 4 hours screen on but battery was dry almost all.Still my 14 pro max doing better but I hope they gone fix on next update because I have phone just from 1 mouth and I expect more from this phone !!
great to hear that it helped! Mine has gone back to being bad after May update... 🙈 Come on Sammy, fix this for us!
@AlexGTech For me, the problem started after the May update. If I do a factory reset, will that help as well, or is it enough to just wipe the cache?
☀️ looks like you all had a good day out Alex!⚽️ I didn't know that Lightroom would work on android until I saw your footnote that said edited in Lightroom. How well does the iPad fit into the android ecosystem Alex? Have a great day 😊👊🙏
Hi Don! Yes it was good fun, always good to meet up with friends! Lightroom works great on Android m, yes - it’s also good on iPad m/iphone. I love that app
And the iPad fits in well with an Android ecosystem, there’s not much I do on the iPad that needs the iPhone to be honest… sending files between them is the only thing I’d miss
My battery has been stellar, day and a half screen on time heavy usage. Cameras have been excellent.
Great review. I love my S24 Ultra. YNWA!!!
thank you! ☺️ 🔴YNWA🔴
Interesting video. I also think that the flaw of Samsung right now isn't its issues themselves, but the time it takes to fix them. In many cases, they don't fix them at all. The s23 Ultra had big strengths and some weaknesses at its launch, and it has been carrying these weaknesses for over a year now. Especially when the camera is concerned. It's the only reason I've stopped upgrading.
This sloppy approach that we've witnessed for over a year makes Samsung products less appealing, in my opinion.
Please make a complete outdoor camera review 🌞
Lots of good outdoor shots in this video I made:
ua-cam.com/video/uaP1dSjs1io/v-deo.html
I noticed a little in the battery drop since the update. Screen on time today 4 hours 17 min, 55% battery left.
that's not bad at all!!
Extra points for showing my team Burnley.
We went down, but that's ok, we were just not good enough this year
UTC (Up The Clarets) ... 🍷
I was so impressed by how you played that day! Deserved more than a draw to be honest!
s24 plus - zero issues so maybe exynos is better this year?
Man I don't know, battery life on my S24U seems about the same. My Zfold 5 on the other hand has been all over the place. Normally I get home after 12 hours at work with both phones on about 80%. But the first day of last week I came home took my zfold out of my pocket and went to make something to eat and when I got back the battery was at 4%. Which is insane when im normally at somewhere between 75-85%. The thing is I didn't do anything different. And over the course of the week it's fluctuated between 70ish% and 40%. It seems to have fixed itself though this week but I can't really tell because I've taken the week off so I've mostly been home and maybe that makes a difference.
Fortunately, my product is free of the aforementioned problems. Excellent video editing.
Awesome, thank you! I am hoping the next update squashes these bugs..
Great review, as you mentioned the s24 ultra is still the best all around phone out despite the slight hiccups.
I've had Apple over the years and even tried the 2024 pro max model and the S24 Ultra is 100 times better than anything I've had.
Let the ☀️ shine into your heart and become such a humble guy like Alex
That’s very kind of you 🙏🏼
You can turn off swipe gestures with s-pen in the settings 😅
Yeah I realised that now 🤣 I was struggling to find anything bad to say about the S-Pen 🥲
I'm an s24u user, and I'm not satisfied with the battery experience as I barely get around 5h SOT with minimal usage, I really like the phone but I hope they fix it in an update!
Battery life is absolutely crappy now. Imagine I get better battery life off my S21 Ultra than on my S24 Ultra. Shame Samsung, Shame!!!
To be fair no issues noticed. Yes camera issue is there but I hardly use it nowadays unfortunately. However battery life yes I agree.
Heeeery I'm having horrible battery issues on my S24U too. Do you know why that would be?
I literally bought it for the battery, everyone said it was massively good.
I use it for WHATSAPP. I don't even play games. It's so sad honestly
oh no! Have you tried the cache fix? I shared a link to it in the description.
@@AlexGTech cheers! Will try it
Thank you Alex.
pleasure mate!
Bro, your friend is Ronaldo Nazario
hahaha he doesn't play like R9 though 🤣
Temos o choque na mudança da lente wide para a lente tele no S24U, mas certamente ainda me parece menos pior do que a mudança constante que o iphone faz quando se está filmando algo que está mais próximo dele. Eu não havia notado, mas antes de pegar o S24U eu peguei um iPhone 15 Pro Max para mim e minha esposa e ela está "p" da vida porque ela veio de um iPhone 12 e foi fazer um vídeo das unhas dela com o iphone 15 Pro Max e as lentes ficaram saltando de uma pra outra. Terrível! Não ouvi ninguém falar sobre isso, faz um teste aí Alex. Desde que percebi isso, não consigo mais "desver". O que é de influenciar fazendo vídeo saltando, não é brincadeira...rs E acredito que pelo fato de ser o melhor iPhone já lançado ever, ninguém falada absolutamente nada.
Ahhhh isso me dá uma raiva mesmo no iPhone! Bem lembrado, vou mencionar isso sim na minha review dele mas o futuro do 15PM pra mim já foi traçado kkkk irá pra minha esposa (que coincidentemente está também no 12PM)
It’s always Sunny in Samsungia 🌞
My S24 Ultra has been a beautiful experience for me. No issues from day-1. Sorry bro.
Why can't I shoot in 24 megapixel by default like the iphone
I have s24u,and i have 0 problems with battery..average sot on every week is about 7.30h-8.30h daily without any charge
Photos taken on S24 Ultra and Samsung phone have a lot of grains. Even you use 200mp, which I never have with my iPhone and Google Pixel.
Yeah I noticed that and included that in my reviews, it's not as good as the S23U
I have same problem with S22U and S23U, also. In general, photos from Samsung phones are always grainy, even no need to zoom in the photos and still noticeable.
My s23u has the same problems with the April update ! Battery is embarrassing
I think the battery issues on all phones are Meta apps. They do the same with iPhones, my wife's 15 Pro Max had terrible battery life until she got rid of FB and IG. Not her battery ends the day 85% plus with the same screen time.
Can someone help me, when I post pictures or videos on Facebook, that I took on my s24 ultra, they look absolutely horrible. The videos look like cartoons and pictures are grainy
Yesterday I received a new firmware update, it could be a fix, not sure
Weird, im getting 8-10 hours s.o.t with pretty heavy use and high screen brightness consistently..
wow! That is more like it!
I definitely agree battery is not geeat as it used to be when first got it or even after 1 month it has something to do with the recent update
"Honor Magic 6 RSR Porsche Design" is the best smart phone now.
Havent had any battery issues and i play games on it all the time
Watching on my S22 via Dex
Today i use my S24 Ultra until now and i have 9 hours off screen and 2 hours.off , watchig movies and youtube, listening music , whith earbuds and in.the car. 38% battery yet .
You will never walk alone
Absolutely! Can't wait for next season in Champions League too! 🥰
I've been having the same battery issue on my S24 Ultra. Even after the May update, And a factory reset.
My grandpa is going to buy Moto Edge 50 Pro. I know it's not Snap 888 3 gen but it's 7 gen 3. Still fast. I tested browsing experience in media markt and it's as good as Galaxy S24U is. So enjoyable and the phone is "cheap" for the price. As for cameras that people say about that they are good, it's marketing, it's good but not perfect. Generally it has a POLED, I guess it's something better than OLED but not too much.
That does look good, sometimes these flagships are not needed really
I also see the issues.
S23 ultra has the same problems with the battery. Not lasting more then 4h of screen on time.
This is true. I attempted to swap but my s23u didn’t even last me a day on campus without charging it. And i was never on it because of class.
Definitely not true!😂 i have s23 ultra and the battery life is still very strong. I can easily get a whole day and some hours with very consistent usage.
Thank you for speaking my mind 😊 S24 Ultra has great features and is still my primary device along with Xiaomi 14 Ultra. But, camera inconsistencies and the bad battery performance is the one which needs urgent fix from Samsung. Great video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you!! Glad I’m not alone!
Same goes with me too I thought I was the only one who had the battery drain issue
Same here, really bad battery performance. I only got 5 SOT without heavy usage, and Light performance profile. I cant imagine how the battery drains if i put it on Standard performance😢
@@jesaya1881 well it's frustrating that we paid too much for only 5 hours of sot
@@namyegoob_cod4958 i hope samsung can fix it in the next update. Bcs one of the reasons why i upgraded my 11promax to s24 ultra is great battery performance (reviewers said so) 😅
I just started, not :10 in. S24U with all its issues... best phone for sale in the US ( i know the Chinese android flagships are crazy). They've been the best for a while but was debatable, until the s23U. The S Ultra line is the undisputed reigning champ probably forever. Classic example of the student becoming the teacher, if you're up on your smartphone history. Or just lived thru and experienced it first hand like myself and all the og smartphone savages have. I was an iphone guy as much as i loved the note 2 and 3. I was hustling and moving, i needed reliable so i kept iPhone as my main. Now it's a much different landscape and boy, how the tables have turned. Samsung is champ, if you dont agree you're a hater 😂
S24U battery is great. AFAIK the issue is a UA-cam app update, if not another bad app. Go into your settings and battery info. Good guardian suite from Samsung. Figure out what app is violating your battery and you can fix it. It's not the OS, I and many others are getting 12 hours of SOT. My worst days are 9 hours SOT, Outside all day, no wifi with 2 sims.
Best phone I ever used, 0 issues and have it pre ordered, so day 1 user. Battery life is amazing, 8-9h SoT every single time and great idle time, which in my case is equally important. Cameras are excellent, but thats not the most important thing for me, my s10+ is still good enough for me in that department. Also have s22u exy version, and difference in battery life and general smoothness is night and day. Amazing screen and build quality, so really dont have a single thing to complain about.
Do you use always on display? Does it consume a lot of battery or are this 8-9 SOT without AOD?
@@gustavfaurholm5800 without aod, I never used it on any of my phones.
6:24 Well said 😂😂

I have just made the switch to Garmin and Samsung S24 Ultra. We are told 'Apple just works' and this is not true, many many frustrations where I expected things to work but it just doesn't, from Siri to Shortcuts, nothing major just tiring. So far I am please with my decision.
What a combo! That is what I have right now too. Despite the issues I mentioned here, I am pretty happy. What Garmin did you go for?
@@AlexGTech The Fenix 7X Solar Pro in stone. I am so happy with the battery life (I did not want the AMOLED). It plays well with my Peloton and Hydrow. I ditched my Ultra, Whoop and Oura. Tired of using too many devices and apps, I am trying to simplify my tech stack.
I've noticed it too on my fold 5. My Exynos note 20 ultra lasts longer
Well, I switched from a s23 Ultra too the 15pro.
I quickly started to hate IOS and apple. I did not bevor.
I wanted to embrace the ecosystem, but coming from an s23 and 8 years of android, it was unbearable.
From the 15pro too the S24 Ultra.
Using two apps, the display, good lock and One UI.
U need to spend a lot of time to use everything the phone, but when u do, it is magical.
Yesterday I got 10 hours and 50 minutes SOT with 33% left at 12:30am. There must be some apps that aren't playing nicely for some people, as this has been the best battery performance I've had on any device
NO WAYYYY you seriously got 11 hours sot and still left with 33 percent? do you have s24 ultra ? and if you do could you please tell me which phone update are you on? thanks
That’s insane bro
Battery issue?? Wipe cache mine Sot is 10-11h per day full settings 4g only. My S21,23 and S24U never ever battery issues but i do what normal users do after uppdates. Better batterylife this is vs S23 U
That was the fix I was referring to and shared in the description, but I’m still not getting nowhere near as good as the S23 ultra
@AlexGTech the s23 ultra at the moments has been trash, if u check most samsung communities, pple are complaining bitterly including me, I now have to charge 3 times a day compared to one time in a day and half before the last 6.1 update. Nothing has worked, cache clearing didn't work, in fact I did a full reset and still having the same issue.
@@de-luxe491 ok, i dont uppdate mine S23 U yet
I can't co-sign the issues. I've had the phone from the start and had no e of these issues. Signals great, battery life is great, camera is great. Everyone else having these issues? Hope it works out y'all. But even if I had these issues? Lack of physical sim support, an eco system that prohibits/punishes you for using something outside of it, okay battery life, no fast charging and on and on from a 15 pro max.
