After a month of using the Galaxy S24 Ultra, I started to realise that, for the right situation, this would be a perfect phone to make a switch from Apple iOS to Android. But it is a little bit more 'nuanced' than that. So I put together 10 reasons (as well as counter-arguments) to help you decide.
✅ The skin from the thumbnail, and cases I mentioned: geni.us/dbrand_Alex
Is the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and its power in AI features with Galaxy AI, better than the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max? 🤔 In most situations I would say yes, but there are some key functionalities in the iPhone 15 Pro Max that mustn't be ignored. Some are deal breakers for a lot of people so I tried to cover that here as well in my recommendations.
Not forgetting that there are so many other options out there, some of which I haven't even tried myself.
Here is a video on why I switched to the Galaxy S24 Ultra: • Galaxy S24 Ultra vs iP...

Thank for the suggestion, I’ll definitely try that!
I've been using iPhone 11 Pro Max and finally upgrade to Galaxy S24 Ultra. The upgrades are phenomenal!!
Will you be switching out totally as far as selling your iPhone and going all in with s24 ultra? Or still using iPhone as well
@@bigdrews4360I've been using my Galaxy S24 Ultra since 29 January and since that day I never use it again because I gave it to my brother
That's a huge upgrade
Wow, that's a huge jump!! I'm excited for you!! 🎉
IPhones have and continue to be antiquated technology, welcome to team Samsung 😂
I just switched from iPhone 15 pro max to s24 ultra. I miss a few things from iPhone but it’s not the normal stuff people miss. But it’s nice to be back on a Samsung.
What u r missing from iphone ??
What can you possibly miss? 🙄
Quality of third party apps is miles ahead on iPhone. It's about the only good thing about it and the reason why I go back to iPhone every time
@@RagingBad
lol, the only thing people miss about the iPhone is FaceTime and iMessage. For videographers I would say people miss the Log format as well as the high quality videos from the iPhone which still is industry leading. Saying that as a Samsung user myself and having an iPhone as well.
The Samsung Stocks Widgets is terrible. Also, no location based reminders ? Crazy that Android doesn’t have that feature. Also, setting an appointment in Apple calendars with a set time like 10:00 AM, and allowing the calendar to notify you on the time you should leave to make it by 10:00 AM is top tier. Apple calls it “travel time” in the app. Android doesn’t have a “travel time” option which totally sucks. These are features I use all the time, and wished they were on the S24 Ultra. I owned the S24U but without those features it wasn’t the best device for me. The hardware of the S24U is phenomenal and the screen is awesome. The speakers on the iPhone are better than the S24U though.
Customization, battery life and fluidity of animations are wonderful on the S24U. It’s a beautiful phone, just some things that were missing that if they had, I would have definitely kept it. I consider it a better device than the 15Pro Max.
The dual picture/recording has been available for years on Galaxy Phones. I had it on my Note in 2015-16. I'm glad someone else finally talked about it
I love my S24 Ultra so much. All my iPhone user friends (even those who have the 15PM and 14PM) want me to take pictures of them. They prefer using my phone on our photos instead of theirs.
Amazing, isn't it?! They've certainly delivered again. Some small issues to resolve but mostly feels like software related
@@AlexGTech this is true. I can't wait for the first update.
I believe what you mentioned about the color accuracy is only when Vivid mode is active. That's the main issue with the screen, and that issue has been resolved in the latest update, adding an option to set it up as vibrantly as the S23.
I switched from iphone 15 PM (which I still use as a backup phone).
The switching experience is still absolute rubbish, even with Smart Switch. Transferring WhatsApp is a pain in the bum (if it doesn't work in initial setup you have to wipe the phone and start again) and Signal (which we use for family chats) doesn't even transfer between ios and android. Homescreen layout transfer sort of works.
If you are going to transfer, it's worth it but expect more work than you expected. But then of course why would apple make it easy to move?!
It is just you are comfortable with iphone eco system....but it only works through iphones not all devices....but samsung functionality and customization is far better than iphones
Definitely a challenge to move, it's getting easier now with things like authenticator apps allowing backups and using Google where possible for data and images/videos, but a lot of it is still painful like you said.
I transferred all the data from iPhone 14 to samsung s24 and I had no problem at all including WhatsApp chat not sure what have you done
No idea where ur problem was but my was easy.
I still have the 15PM, but I rarely use it because everything seems better on the s24u, except for the camera, which can be situational. I didn't bother transferring everything since I still have the iPhone. Aside from the usual contacts and social apps, I basically started fresh.
Nice video. Keep it up!
Alex nice video, congrats! Please can you tell me about samsung fingerprint, does it work with a screen protector? Also witch is better samsung fingerprint or Apple face id?
Thanks.
Another great even handed review. Well done.
Glad you liked it, thank you so much!
I stay with my S23 Ultra. Love the phone, battery is great and the camera is awesome. I realy feel your point with the big phones... i love the feel without any cases... but when ever i go oit with the family or my dog, i snap on my rugged gadget cas from samsung. You can have a camera grip with a physical button on top for it with a little tripod inside. Ads a lot of grip for onehanded fotos or stability for great zoom pictures! Love your videos, greatings from zurich switzerland
Coming from the S22 Ultra, this beautiful S24 Ultra has some heft that I can definitely feel & love.
I really don't mess with AI because my S22 Ultra did basically the same.
Open your gallery, then a photo, then tap on an object in that photo & click the "eye icon" top right & boom! Basically, Circle to Search
Yeah that Bixby Vision did a similar job for sure. They will probably remove that now. Like I said the S24U is incredible but all the AI features will become commonplace soon!
Switched already! The S23U was supposed to be the keeper. Now retired, the cellphone is a toy not a traveling companion. The reason this guy switched, “the antireflective screen alone” is the winner. Trying to use the camera, outside, in sunny Southern California was impossible. I could point it but focus and composition were a guessing game. Circle to search, useable. Using AI to improve my writing, needed.
Note: the official Samsung cases, free though they were, are not the as previous years.
Nice!! If the screen is good for Cali weather, it's gonna be good for everyone! ❤
Nice video! Would you recommend upgrading from fold 4? I'm tired of it's hinge issues
You will miss the convenience of the folding aspect... but gain in performance and camera quality for sure!
What issues are you facing? I haven't faced any with my Fold3.
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it, Anthony! 👊
Alex,
Another great video. I couldn't agree with you more. I made the switch from Apple to Samsung. Honestly, it's way more productive. Apple fans, you have to give it a try.
Thank you! Yes, I think from a functionality perspective, the iPhone (or more accurately, iOS) could do a lot more…
Hi,
nice video
do you have glass protector on s24 ultra?
Not at the moment, pretty happy with it without a protector, the display is beautiful. I just need to be more careful as I already scratched the back of it 😬
@@AlexGTech Thanks for reply! I will give samsung a try this year, but i saw that everyone praising the screen doesn't apply any screen protector 😆 so i should go the same direction
@Mehrdad_G Watch Jerryrigseverything durability test of the S24U, I don't think it needs a screen protector for scratches
The update started rolling out in korea! we will get it in the states feb 22nd. this is already an amazing phone imagine after this big update. Loving my s24 ultra titanium gray.
Update looks good so far. It's been raining quite a bit over here so I haven't really had a chance to really test the cameras but the display colours are definitely much better now with the ability to change vividness. Thanks so much for your comment, hope you are doing well!
Great video as usual, the S24U is a beast!
Couldn't agree more! Thank you!
I will keep it simple anything but iDull 😀 Fabulous coverage and honest opinions. On a serious note having just purchased the S24u and comparing it to my other flagship I find it mighty impressive thus far.
Thanks Lee! I've just been playing with low light photos in London as had some time to kill this evening and it's a bit of a mixed bag 😅 but I've been mostly impressed with everything else!
Whatta a video, great color grading great content as always, and ur smile is a cherry on top.
Also pls link ur friend's video on spen in description, it's not there
Thank you! Have added his channel in the description now 👊
Awesome video Alex. The camera looks amazing compared to my iPhone 13 mini. When you were moving the stylist across the screen it looked like the nib moved just a little bit. Is it pressure sensitive? You know I have to rely on dictation due to my visual impairment, but I just about had it with the dictation from Apple. It's getting worse and worse for me how is it on the ultra 24? Have a great week Alex👊😊
Thanks so much Don, yes the S-Pen is pressure sensitive. Honestly, the dictation on Samsung didn't use to be much better, but with the AI features is so easy now to correct spelling/grammar and even change the tone of the message that it really is hard to match on iOS.
It's a learning curve, not gonna lie to you, moving from iOS but it's certainly refreshing in many ways. Wish I lived near you so I could let you have one of my devices for a few days to try it out!
Have a great week ahead Don 🙏🏼
And so sorry about the delay in getting back to you, I had one of those weeks 😅
Great video, Alex!
I purchased the s24 ultra and all around, it's a great phone, but im experiencing a grainy display when using it at low brightness in a dark setting. Are you experiencing the same, and do you think this is a hardware defect?
Thanks in advance, Alex!
I saw another UA-camr mention this and tried it myself but I can't replicate the issue. Looks a little bit grainier but nothing like this guy showed, I wonder if its the wallpaper you're using maybe?
@AlexGTech I don't see it on my wallpaper, and neither do I see it when watching content. It's whenever I'm looking at a grey background, it's quite noticeable.
Danke!
Wow!! Thank you so much for your support 🙏🏼
@@AlexGTech
You are welcome.
Thank you also for your great and professional videos 💪🏽
I can’t wait to switch to the s24 ultra
I hope I get the job for Chick-fil-A because I’m planning on switching to the s24 ultra from my iPhone 13 Pro Max maybe around like late July or August depending on how much I make. I’m so happy to know that the camera will be great on the s24 ultra.
Someone finally talks about the viewfinder on the S24U. I thought I was the only one who noticed the poor view, like a 720p image vs 1080p on an iPhone. Either way, the result is pretty good.
Right!? I'm sure they could fix that, given how much processing power this thing has...
Hey, what watch are you wearing?
hiya sorry about the delay there! Thats my Epix Pro Gen 2. Love it!
I switched from my note 10 plus to s24 ultra. I like the features on it but samsung has to get the washed out screen fixed. I'm not feeling at the moment like I should
Wow, that’s a huge upgrade too! I hope the colours issue gets fixed soon, and the little video recording issues I found. Other than that it’s probably the best phone out there at the moment!
I love your videos as always and the content keeps getting better and better. Would you recommend upgrading from a Z Fold 5 to the S24 Ultra or should I wait for the Pixel Fold and Z Fold 6? I would really like to know your honest opinion since I know you love your Z Fold 5 a lot.
Not sure about PIxel Fold to be honest. But I'd certainly wait for Fold 6 if you can. The Fold 5 is still amazing and not sure you'd get the same level of productivity on the S24U depending on how you use your Fold, of course
@@AlexGTech I agree to that as well. The Fold 5 for me is a productivity machine and the addition of Galaxy AI to it this year will take it to the next step.
Everyone should subscribe to this guy he’s honest he’s down to earth. He works hard and his opinions make a lot of sense. Proud of you brother. 🏁❤️⚡️🤙👊
Oh man, you are the best! Thank you so much! 🙌🏼
The s24 ultra isn’t my first android phone as I was a note user for years, but I went back to my iPhone 15 pro. I just like the ecosystem better and the look of IOS & ipadOS; simple, elegant and does what I need it to do. Speakers aren’t as great on the s24 ultra too. Apps are higher quality on apple devices as well. Also apple log video is so good to match my Sony 10bit cameras. 10bit colors is sweet to have on a phone.
I totally get that, sometimes all we need is a bit of a change right? Interesting what you said about the speakers though, I honestly think they are better, but maybe I need to test it with a few different apps. So far I only tried Netflix, Disney and UA-cam. I agree on iOS apps being more polished, though that has largely changed for the apps I care about, and they honestly feel just as polished on OneUI. But a few still crash and behave weirdly on Android when they are fine on iOS. To me iOS just needs more productivity features really… but I know not every cares about that.
@@AlexGTech Hmm yes change can be fun or needed, the reason I went with the note series a years ago. No regrets goign android at the time and was loving the flexibility, but I was surprised with iOS once I got back with the iphone 15 pro max and again ipad. I'm finding the productivity sufficient for my needs (college, some editing and business). As for sound, I just find the iphone more richer and less tinny sounding when blasting music/movies without bluetooth speakers or headphones. The s24 probably has better highs though. Everyone's ears are different or has a preference. Enjoy your s24U! The phone is an absolute beast.
@@rattohcamera on the s24U sucks though, compared to the iPhone…if the subject is moving, even a little bit, you’ll get a blurry pic, not so with iPhone usually (happens sometimes though)
Alex about that hand fatigue you need to review the s24+ no sharp corners and a great phone. Would like you to review the whole s24 lineup this year as Samsung has really stepped up on making the other phones in the lineup almost as good as the ultra.
Honestly, I really want to! I am so busy right now with my other jobs (non-UA-cam related) that it’s hard to deviate too much. I will though, as soon as possible! Have a good one, and I appreciate you wanting to see my opinion on that 👊🏼
I watched your all videos but @ 3.80 I make up my mind to switch to S24. Actually I was watching videos from
Last couple of days but honestly I was not satisfied by other ytubers reviews. Thanks Man for helping me. Coz I waited a lot to compare before buying
My photos on new 24 ultra are not in chronological order as they were on my iPhone, any suggestion? Thanks
How did you import them? I wonder if the metadata has been removed and the library is showing it via name or date added, instead of date created...
@@AlexGTech using the transfer option at the set up in the beginning then connecting the iPhone cable lighting and usb c cable.
Switched to Iphone after 7 years of using only Samsung flagships. The only regret I have is that I should have done it years ago. Hardware power of my S23U did not really matter with endless waiting for software updates that were supposed to fix things. After 10 months (and pretty much the same experience I had on any previous Samsung) I just gave up and sold my S23U. From hardware point, yeah, Samsung devices are among the best money can buy. But all of that is pretty much useless considering mediocre software (terrible camera software was the main reason I gave up). I don't care about processor or ram memory speed if pictures of moving subjects end up blurry and unusable just like they did on my prehistoric S7 edge.
Been on iOS for 13 years. I’m the opposite. I’m so tired of the lack of basic features n functionality on iOS that I may switch to S24. We still don’t have a numbers row on keyboard or split screen multitasking. Also, tired of the 60hz n last years chip on base model. U get it all on Samsung for less money (at least the base model). Peace.
@@hhhmmmmmmmm yeah, I respect that. Samsung will feel refreshing. But same old "we'll fix it with updates" camera problems... I don't know, guess I got tired of listening the same story/lie all over again. If you get over pretty unpredictable (often unusable) camera experience, especially after all those years of using Iphone, I guess you'll love your new device. Good luck !
I think sometimes all we need is a change. I can see how iOS would feel like a nice change after 7 years. And I totally see your point on moving objects. I eventually ‘cracked the code’ on how to avoid that but it involves using Pro mode and manually setting the shutter speed and ISO to get the right balance between light and motion. Not great when you are trying to snap a quick photo of your kid or something. But in good light I found that issue to be easier to control. Samsung definitely needs to fix a few things on this one. It’s nowhere near as bad as the experience I had on the S22Ultra (exynos version) or the 14 Pro Max when they’re first came out, but it’s not as good as the S23U. The S23U for me was 99% there for the things I care about.
@@AlexGTech yeah, you're 100% right. I'm in Exynos region so I guess my expectations were high with Snapdragon. S23U had other problems, too. Vibration was just too soft, I had a lot of missed calls and notifications even after 10 months. Battery sometimes behaved very strange (one day I could get 5 hours of sot and 50% left, day after, with same usage, I had to charge my phone twice in 24 hours). And some weird bugs (apps closing, wifi connection problems, signal issues...) that never once happened with Samsung devices I used in past. I guess I could have learned a thing or two about Pro mode and all advantages with it, but, at least how I use the phone, I expect auto mode to work properly. I'm not in search for perfection, don't get me wrong. But pictures of moving subjects just have to be usable, and on Samsung devices, some of them really end up pretty bad. Competition solved it, and I think it's time for Samsung to make some major software (not only camera software) improvements and get maximum out of that great hardware.
Thanks for reply and keep up the good work, your videos are on another level !
Awesome review brother…..
Luv from india 🇮🇳 ❤️
One of the best content makers with another review 🙌🏽
I appreciate that! Thank you so much
Filming, photos, Instagram. Are these better than iphone (15 pro max)?
Filming, yes but not in all scenarios. I do think ProRes LOG (for Pros) is better than anything the S24U can produce. But everything else is either on par or better with S24 Ultra for me. Instagram is not great on the selfie camera though, thought the app. It makes everything over exposed and shaky (even more than recording the selfie video then uploading later). But using the main camera, the 4K quality is great and I think the S24U microphone sounds better too.
There is suppose to be updates for the camera and for the vivid screen coming out. It was already announced by Samsung so I wouldn't worry to much about it.
Is it worth the swich from a fold 5 to a s24 ultra?
Don't do it man.
I was thinking sometimes about giving Ultra one more try. I had the S21 Ultra, and that was a really bad phone in my opinion. So, after that, I switched to iPhone. These days, I use the 15 Pro Max. But there is so much information everywhere that switching makes sense again. So, I have three points that are extremely important to me. I don't really use the Apple ecosystem; I just use iPad and Apple TV. My PC runs on Windows and would continue to be Windows in the EU, where we don't use iMessage. But features like Apple Watch, Apple Pay, and check-in are extremely nice, and Airdrop too. What about these features? Can I really use Google Pay and Samsung Watch the same way as iOS does? And what about connectivity? It feels to me that I can connect my iPhone to many more systems easier because there's almost always an iOS app.
I think in this case, it would make quite a bit of sense to try a switch. For me it was more difficult as I use a Mac and really enjoyed my Apple Watch Ultra. But after a few weeks of getting used to the mix (and now using a Garmin) I really don't miss it. The only I miss is Airdrop as the alternatives are not as smooth when working with a Mac. Samsung Wallet is pretty good, but if I had to choose one Apple Pay would still be better, it seems to respond quicker when opening it. Using it in stores to pay for things is absolutely fine though, just like Apple Pay. I haven't come across many apps that don't work. But there are some exclusive ones that may be a dealbreaker like Ulysses and Procreate which only work on iPad and iPhones.
I made the switch from iPhone 13 Pro to S24 Ultra and everything went well except for one thing.... in the smaung gallery the photos were transferred correctly and in the correct order.. but when I access the gallery from another apps (instagram, facebook etc..) are all mixed up not in chronological order.. is there a solution to this (20000++ photos and videos)?
Oh no! I wonder if it’s because those apps are looking at “modified date” rather than “created date”, not sure but that would explain it…
@@AlexGTech Thank you for your input! I guess i have to find an app that will provide to modify this setting then !!
Amazing video as usual btw ^_^
@@RaddyDji believe you need to push the 3 dots at the top of the gallery and sort. Something like that.

Thank you 😊
I would love to switch back to Samsung I haven’t been with Samsung since the note 20 since I got rid of the note lineup but it’s 24 I do want but Apple got this Apple Watch Ultra and I’m in love with it so maybe next year
I can’t blame you! I was in the same situation last year and ended up compromising on the AWU. I love it still but I couldn’t justify keeping the iPhone just for it. As it happens right now I still have the iPhone, but I got so used with Garmin watches that I don’t miss the AWU as much as I used to. But yeah, I don’t blame you, that combo is fantastic!
@@AlexGTech oh wow you answered me back can cool 😎 I feel special
We now have a Really Smart Phone, a TV, A DSLR Camera & a Computer that fits in your pocket! 👍
Just incredible value really!
I haven't had a problem with the colours on my S24 ultra...The anti glare feature is a game changer ..New update is bringing in a new vivid mode to get more saturated colours
Really great news about that vivid vividness option, I mentioned it at 2:14. And I agree, using this outside or near windows is so much better now!
I switched from Iphone 13 pro to S24 ultra.. I just loveeeeee this phone. Its not perfect but honeslty very close.
I agree, a few issues to solve in the camera software and maybe battery too, but mostly it's the best out there
Hi Alex, and fellow Samsung Ultra users.
I recently updated my software to UI 6.1 on my S23 Ultra.
Unfortunately, this has resulted in massive battery drain, especiallywhen using youtube.
It has been a topic of much disdain on Samsung forums.
I would advise fellow S23 users who haven't yet updated not to do so for a while yet.
My Ultra is down by 20% at the end of the day. For a flagship device it's extremely disappointing.
Hopefully Samsung sort this soon.
Another fabulous upload there Alex, be well🤜🏼🤛🏼.
Ive been a iphone user my whole life last iphone i had was the 14pro max just upgraded to the s24 ultra and omg this thing is amzing
Wow!! I'm jealous of you, that's an amazing feeling!
This is such an amazing video. You have convinced me, I'll be getting the S24 Ultra. I'm done with apple this time
Thank you so much, I am glad my vide helped you!!
At least in Android, you get to see the wallpaper you chose. Thanks for the sensible review!
My pleasure! OneUI has gotten so good now!
What about xiaomi ? Is it on par with s24 ultra?
Not sure as I haven't tried that yet, but will try it later this year!
I know theres lot of issues with camera on s24 ultra. Will they release the update to fix it? Iphone still got more detail on photos mostly, samsungs just like s23 overshapens everything lol
No not at all
I want to move over but I want to go to a smaller phone.
If only we can get the chip better the pen the cameras all in a normal size phone.
Great point. Like I said at the end the ergonomic aspect on this is definitely not something to ignore..
Everything what you say in this review is good. But Iphone is Iphone it's another level.
This is a little bit of a contradicting statement but I think I known what you mean. If you've been used to the iPhone and have other Apple products its hard to find a decent alternative ❤
Another level lmao Samsung Dex is the 🎤 drop alone.
@@queenbubalicious you will use dex only once or twice and never again, your pen also. I have both phones Iphone ans S24U and Iphone is next level.
For me Alex has the most topnotch presentation and he is very consistent in all his videos. Its almost like he's reciting a poem. He surpasses all those big tech bloggers.
I am so sorry for the time it took me to respond to you! I just wanted to let you know that I read this comment on Monday last week and it MADE MY DAY! More than you you will ever know. Thank you 🥰
Is it just me , or the night time video lets say not a good quality on s24 Ultra ? Honestly i am thinking to change back to iphone if i cant fix that somehow .
Samsung just released an article about an upcoming update giving you options in vividness!
Yup! I mentioned it at 2:14. Glad that's coming and I hope it fixes it 🙏🏼
@@AlexGTech😅oh sorry! I missed it!
it's coming man
Upgraded from 14 pro max to S24 ultra!!! I love this phone
Amazing!! The 14 Pro Max was my ‘last straw’ in 2023. I tried the 15PM again and whilst it’s much improved, I can’t really be as efficient on an iPhone as I can on the Galaxy phones. I do hope Apple brings some more productivity into iOS, competition is always good. How did you find migrating your Apple stuff over?
Watching on my violet S24 Ultra still with no case. The phone is so good and elegant that I refuse to put a case on it. 😅
Right?! Living on the edge! 🤣
I switched from my NOTE 20 ULTRA to S24 ULTRA/ORANGE/1TB , unlocked & I'm soooo HAPPY is great phone like usual, i started with Samsung NOTE 1 back in day & still buying it ...GREAT phones with Technology & top notch quality always gives u alots Promotions/Discounts & trade in , Try that with that F*n Greedy Apple👎👎
Amazing upgrade!!
I’ll stick to iPhone regardless of all the hardware marvels and improvements that Samsung May come up with! I am to Apple’s security software and update system and all the help it has for us users!
You hit a great point there on help to users, Samsung has some work to do in that space, for sure!
all what help u can’t do anything on iphones i have the 13 pro max im thinking about switching its getting boring
@@Cjmboo not everybody wants a bunch of junk on their phone. Some people like a clean, basic phone that does what they need it to do and that’s where iPhone is superior.
English is not your mother tongue!? 😮😮😮 im amazed. You sound very natural. Where you from sir?
It took about 20 years of practice 😆 I still have a dodgy accent, I grew up in Brazil and moved here about 20 years ago
No grain issue?
I’ve heard other people mention this whilst in extra dimmed screen mode. I haven’t see that and I use that mode every evening. What I did notice was Expert RAW issues when using 50MP in low light. Something not quite right there!
Switched frm ios to s24 ultra sooo soooo happy❤
Awesome!!
What was the biggest change for you?
@@AlexGTech In India iphone are very expensive and coustmer support is not so good if any damage it cost a lot...!!! I used to use samsung years back, but again in india it was xynos and was bit slower and battery not so good, bt now with snapdragon simply love it and very honest there is a lot we can do with anroid.
Btw loved ur video thank u so much!!
Salve 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
opa! 🇧🇷 tmj fera!
Theres a toggle to force all a.i features to work on device completely offline, no cloud
Not all features will work if you switch it on
@RagingBad all the features shown In that screen with that toggle
Faded display i.e dullnes compared to s23 ultra
Issue with call qualiy & loudness
Camera& video quality must be
Enhanced
Clock colors& clock styles missing
From always on display
Vivid & natural both are the same
i.e. huge setback regarding display
The complain graph is higher so
Team sam must wipe total complain's i have upgraded from my beloved s23 ultra to s24 ultra
So please be serious & solve the
Problem's of million's s24 ultra owners.
I really thought you were native English. Maybe I don't hear it because I'm not English.
Too bad AI doesn't support my language.
Ive never even had an iphone.
Im just watching everything about the s24 ultra whilst i save up for one 🤣
Im stuck with an s20 FE and it sucks. Ive hated it since the day i got it and got rid of my note 9.
Shame about your S20FE. The iPhone has great things about it, and goes about it in a different way. For my use, it's just not capable enough.
Alex can you do a giveaway of any phone my phone has been water damaged and its dead now and i don't have the budget to buy a new one i am writing this comment from my chromebook
For 120€ you can buy a phone that just works , a realme c53 , is fast smooth a responsive like a google pixel , everything else feels very cheap , doesn't really look or feel too plasticky but the display Is a very cheap lcd and the cameras are u know.. 120€ phone quality
@@wheely4405 bro I am a college going student I don't have money
@@wheely4405i love how u explained the phone, u should start a phone review channel.😂
@tourtheearth9207 i dont now if you mean it or not but I plan on doing it , the biggest problem is my English have a greek accent and they sound like very bad brittish XD
@@wheely4405 i can help, we can work on it together, mind sending me an email? Or i email u?
The iPhone is very good but now very boring. However if you’re using Apple computers etc it still delivers a better experience overall.
Very true... it's an excellent device, just not as productive
I like the old way when you had to scratch out your ex with a pen
Tomorrow i ll switch from S21 Ultra to S24 Ultra :-)
How exciting!! Though I LOVED my S21 Ultra!
Samsung will be charging people for the use of AI features in the future. FYI, folks, you've been warned.
"Maybe" by that time AI will be so ubiquitous for free that I find it unlikely. It would be a shame if they charged it as that could drive people away
You nearly got me to switch after watching your videos! Maybe one day…
Thank you Alex.
Hahaha the one that got away!
S24 ultra king 👑
It certainly is right now!
It will be after the update i think?
Us Samsung users was trying tell yall iPhone sucks

hi there, I wish I had the luxury of time to make more varied content. The truth is...Whenever I post about something else, no one clicks on it.
And I don't blame you for this by the way. But you only listed the videos that you probably watched.
Here is a list of several videos that I did in the last 3 months that you didn't mention...
- OBSBOT Tail Air streaming 4K camera ua-cam.com/video/4PBc-bO34GY/v-deo.html
- My desk setup ua-cam.com/video/H3jMz04CK-A/v-deo.html
- My Pixel 8 Pro review ua-cam.com/video/RYR8bEy8eJA/v-deo.html
- My favourite webcam ua-cam.com/video/sETuv9UVayE/v-deo.html
- An amazing bluetooth speaker ua-cam.com/video/NFOkGpQkcyY/v-deo.html
- My awesome Garmin watch ua-cam.com/video/moIqavoWmTc/v-deo.html
- A thought piece on Android vs iOS ua-cam.com/video/Pl_EDLb9XRc/v-deo.html
I work a regular 9-5 and can only afford to make content when I have spare time in the evenings and weekends. So I have to be targeted. With your support in liking, sharing and interacting with all my videos, I am sure I will grow further and hopefully one day have time to build a team and make even more videos. Have a good one.
English isnt your native language... but you speak it well.... its hard to hear whether your dutch or german.😄
He's Brazilian
@@RagingBad ok... that didnt came up to me.
Whole S24 lane is just Samsung gimmick. Buy our new phones with exactly the same camera hardware like S22,S23... for the AI capabilities... 😂, for just 1400€.
0 reasons to upgrade from S23, unless you have some cash to throw away. I like the end of the video, when he advice not to just go for the upgrade unless you have much money to spend. S25 lane will be the actual upgrade of the S23, with new camera hardware, not just middle AI upgrade, and 18-th place camera,far behind many Chinese brand, and they're more to come with better results in next 1-2 months.
no apple is betta
It can be… but right now iOS needs to improve imo
S24 is a joke coming from a Fold4 for typing. Its a camera and nothing else tbh
Hard to replace that convenience of the Fold to be fair...
Iphone27 😂😂😂
😆
Iphone is no longer premium. It's yesterday.
What do you mean by "English is not my first language"? 😮
Haha I'm from Brazil and grew up there. Only learned English in my mid 20s
@@AlexGTech Jesus... I've never noticed an accent when you speak. Keep playing the jogo bonito! I love your videos. Keep them coming!
I knew you were still an iPhone user.. shm
What made you think that? I have a PIxel, a Fold, a Flip, an Xperia 1 V. I review phones, bro 😆 but when you say 'user' it assumes that's my only device which is wrong. I don't even have a SIM on it right now.
I totally agree. I have every Apple product and I used to have Samsung Note phones a long time ago. And one thing I think is very true. True especially in this new age we live in is that we kind of need our computer everywhere. Meaning we really need a phone that can do multitasking that can be like a mini computer because sometimes we just don’t have the time to pull our laptop or pull our tablet And I would agree the Apple is trying to sell the laptop and trying to sell us a tablet so maybe they’re not trying to solve the problem on the cell phone because it wouldn’t help them. That’s why I’m seriously considering leaving Apple because it doesn’t take much to look at the Samsung phone go gosh how come Apple one of the biggest companies in the world isn’t giving these features to their customers, there must be a reason. @apple @samsung
Thanks man, yes today is a perfect example of that. I travelled to London for work (non-YT related) and all I took was the phone and a lightweight display with Dex. Absolutely beautiful from a travel and work perspective. The iPhone has its benefits too, but I feel that to get stuff done on a single device, Samsung has nailed it. Apple ultimately (imo) has moved into a model that wants us to buy more of their gear and get it all working together, whereas Samsung seems to be more flexible and just give customers lots of functionality even if they don’t necessarily need it.
Hey bro, I think you’re so right on about this and I think that the busier and busier world gets the more we’re gonna need to have devices like Samsung that make working and traveling and flexibility easier and I think you’re right you’ve been on a good point your video the Apple does want to sell us multiple devices. They don’t want to sell us one device That can do it all because then they would make less money. I actually think it’s worth making good video on because I’ve been thinking about this for a while and why I’m planning on letting my Apple devices out and get into the Samsung ecosystem. How do you feel like the apps are on android. I’m sure for a premium which I don’t mind paying. You can get most of the same apps so you can find on Apple. Get away from Apple. I feel like they’re so boring and I just don’t feel like even with iOS 18 anything will change
Same I’m actually waiting for iOS 18. If it doesn’t provide basic features n it’s only a facelift, I’m out. Mostly, I’m curious about Siri n ai, if it’s greatly improved n mostly on device for privacy reasons. Upselling is apple’s business model. Also, they r marketing experts. How else can do many of us pay more for so much less. Still waiting on a numbers row on keyboard😂😂😂
I was good with switching till you got to the part of money. Will it's to late o sent my 14 pro max off 😮
I think the 14 Pro Max is still a great phone. I didn’t have a great time with it to be honest, but it was mostly iOS related. It’s way more stable now and the cameras are awesome still, great battery, etc. Like I said, if it doesn’t work financially I’d stay with it, because the improvements are clear but perhaps not worth losing money over them
