Hi. Could you link up the screen protector you are using? I try Whitestone Dome and Torras (they are not cheap) and the fingerprint reader actually becomes really “trashy”.
@@nickackermanchannel hey Nick. We are waiting for a comparison between Oppo find x 8 pro and Galaxy 24 ultra. Please do it, not only speed test but talk about the software too.
How's the battery life after 6.1.1. I got it last month so I updated it. But life performance bit low. In reddit people are complaining about the 6.1.1 for battery life. You had great battery on 6.1 then now?
@Oneplussecond-s7s depends upon the usage, really. I'm a heavy user and use 5g most of the time. So it lasts me a day. I put it on charge once before I sleep and use it the entire next day. Screen on time is around 10 hours and screen off time is around 9 hours. So it lasts me around 19 hours on a full charge.
I pre ordered within several hours of the offering. I trade every other year. I absolutely love mine. I am a big fan of the long-range zoom capabilities of the camera. I have never had an app crash, and my S24U is my daily driver.
What I've been loving about the S24 ultra is the better contrast video. quality. It just looks so crystal clear, then my iphone it makes me use my galaxy more than my iphone 15 pro max
@eciv2006 you must be a prophet. Could you please provide me with the winning numbers to the lottery? Just so you know, I had the note 10 plus since release back in 2019 and upgraded to the s24 ultra this August. The only reason that I upgraded was just for the camera.
The battery drain on idle is something they should seriously improve. If I charge it up to 85% (to preserve health) at night, when I wake up in the morning it’s already down at 79-78% meanwhile my 15 pro max stays at 85% even my A52s midrange. Also when it goes below 20% on Samsung it goes flying to 0 but on iOS it lasts forever
Sometimes I accidentally sleep with 24%, I wake up to 3 or 4% (With internet connection on) . But it really charges so quick that I don't notice that as a problem
I am so taking this as a sign! I've been looking for the latest long-term reviews of the S24 Ultra. I just saw one uploaded today, and it's in my favorite color. Finger's crossed for today 🤞🏻 I ordered an unlocked version in Amazon, and it got delayed for 2 weeks, and the refund is in process, but somehow, it made it to my city in the tracker update.
That "big camera update" still didn't come. Other issues aside (weak vibration, messy os...) this camera performance (respect to "just use Pro mode bro with x setting combined with y setting" bros) should not be acceptable at this price range. Period.
7 years of updates is cool but I suspect those updates will eventually slow down older phones so ppl can still upgrade to there newer devices, google and apple I am sure does this as well
I think Galaxy S24 Ultra is the best android phone right now. But when the Galaxy S23 Ultra was launched i think it was samsung's best phone released in years. For me overall S23 Ultra was a better phone for its time especially with the vivid display and huge increase in battery compared to previous galaxies.
@katinasoutherland7693 I love the sharpy edges like a OLED TV or PC monitor that's edge to edge bezeless now buying a iPhone is more convincing for me or I'll just buy the S24 ultra if i can buy it before it's too old
Samsung s series phone are good but they are being overhyped in social media nowdays.. Reason? 1 camera of iphone,vivo and oppo are better than S24U 2 Thermal wise s24U are heating more than iphones 3 Battery backup is not the best 4 AI feature are just google AI features
The trade in offers and promotions that Samsung offers is hard to pass up! But I'll keep my S23 Ultra, since that is my secondary phone. I wonder if you, Nick, actually rock this phone as a primary though.
I really wanna switch off iOS to Android but I’ve heard the new Snapdragon 8 Elite is supposed to be crazy so I wanna switch off ASAP but I wanna have the best of what Android can give me. I’ve deduced my choices to either Google or Samsung now it’s just a question of if I should wait for the S25 Ultra or buy now and wait.
If you care anything about cameras, do yourself a favor & skip Samsung. The skin tones are freaking awful 😖 light and blown out. Idk why Samsung doesn't fix it? Get the pixel 9pro XL. Don't listen to all the hate. Not to mention your used to iPhone animations, fluidity, things of that nature. Trust me, you'll want pixel. Not to mention all pixel magic ✨️ you'll never have another spam call again!

Been using IOS for a Decade and wanted to switch since S22 Ultra, but still stick on IOS and skipped it same with S23 Ultra, but when the S24 Ultra was announced and the screen is now flat and more square with more features I pre ordered and got my S24 Ultra Titanium Gray 512gb back om Feb 1, 2024. And I'm loving the Screen, customization, battery life, camera and everything about it. LOVING my S24 Ultra now and didn't miss IOS much. It's so Good to know that you can do more with this Phone. Thank you Samsung hope that they create more innovation in the future.
So just how fast is the charging, really? Because from some checking around and investigating, it seems like a lot of folks have stated that even with the 45w charger, the "super fast" charging speeds aren't much better than the S22 Ultra (which ain't much better "super fast" than on regular fast charging to begin with)...
Thanks for the analysis! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
My first super expensive phone and a Samsung, but it has countless features I didn't know about it, and I'm very pleased with it, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to trade it in for the S25 Ultra, JUST because I want to.....
Great review thanks looking to getting this one since now it's discounted and the S25 ultra as well when it comes out, Samsung phones are the best not to mention also the ai and the battery 🔋 life and software updates . Plus 7 years of updates just beast 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽😎😎😎💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
I did the same thing and used it for a couple of months, and I completely regretted it. After a few months, I sold the 15pm and got the s24 ultra, and it's been a beast ever since. Also, I forgot to mention that the S Pen has been helping me a lot with note-taking, which is not a feature in the 15pm.
I am loving it because of the software, special 7 years of android update. However, the hardware could be a bit better when compared with other Chinese phones.

Watching from my s24 plus not ultra.. I prefer the rounded corners. The S lineup is really solid.
The Plus is a great size and the rounded corners are very comfortable!
with the leaks that the s25 ultra being more rounded. im excited to see the ultra being more comfortable to hold again. i will be ordering one
