Samsung's S24 Ultra is one incredible phone. Samsung sent me one for a couple of weeks and I instantly bought one for myself. Here's my quick 7 minute review from the perspective of being an iPhone user for the past few months. Much longer review to come later!

Worth the price? Ehhhh. But did I pay it without a second thought? Absolutely. I'm ok with it. That's just what they cost these days.
Carrier deals go a long way. You can get $1000 towards one from trading in an S10e with some carriers, so that helps take the edge off when your phone payment ends up being like $20 / month for a top-tier device that can also double as a Desktop with Dex and a portable streaming device that doesn't use hotspot with a Dex cable.
So yeah, it is expensive, but there are situations where it can make sense.
@bengurwell1500 yep, I got $550 for my old phone as well as ~150 off and double the storage. Not quite $20 payments but I still saved some.
I got mine for 921€ with trade in (z Flip 4) and 15% Student discount :D Couldnt be happier its amazing for that price

I'm a longtime iPhone user now rocking an S24 Ultra. While the hardware is fantastic the software glitches I've encountered so far feels like it's a bit unpolished.
@bmc1222 I have noticed a couple things too, but I'm hoping we get a software update soon to work out the kinks. I've had a Samsung since the Samsung moment in 2010, though I've strayed once or twice. I always come back to Samsung. They're good stuff and I think you'll end up being happy with it. I do love my iPad though. They have better or more polished apps!
Dear Note 9 we have been together for almost five years & you been good to me. We traveled around the world multiple times. We close many deals together and because of you I was able to stay in contact with many new friends and family from around the world. Did many video calls and got closer to people emotionally because of you. You were definitely there when I needed you the most. Time to upgrade to S24 Ultra and i see you will arrive today. Will miss you note 9. ♥🙏♥🙏
Same feelings!...Note 9 user here.. 8gb 512gb version ocean blue from 2018.. man it runs solid as ever... so tempted by the s24 ultra but feel guilty to leave it.. thinking of pushing it further till this year s fold device😅
Yes note 9 is a great phone and I plan to keep her to use it for UA-cam videos saving battery life on my new S 24 ultra@@vikram1099
Hey buddy same here note 9 user here finally upgraded after 5 years to S24U,
Bit sad bit happy...
Lot of memories with my note 9
But this S24U is love❤
The 7 year support is key for me
I have some doubts about the "7 years of update" promise. They guarantee to give you the latest software 7 years from now but can they guarantee the phone to run just as smoothly and fast as today?
I've been an Android user for almost a decade until 2019. The system and SoC's have gotten a lot more powerful but what hasn't changed is that, after 1 or 2 years of use, they become laggy and buggy and unreliable. My last Android phone was S9 which was the flagship phone when it came out and now it's so laggy it's unusable even after a full reset. I imagine it's because newer systems and apps demand more powerful hardware than the phone can handle. There were so many times when I pull up the phone and open an app and it either crashes or freezes or becomes unresponsive or some other unexpected behavior. I was so disappointed at Android and that was the final push for me toward iOS. My 3-year-old iPhone 12 mini might not be as fast but the reliability is simply unmatched. It's responsive and just works when I need it to.
I have a question
Why do ppl like updates
I mean it lowers the performance then why do it?
Might be laggy because your battery is dying so it can’t supply enough wattage to the cpu, which needs to be throttled to avoid crashes. Try replacing the battery and see if it helps.
Sold my iphone 15 pro for Samsung s24 ultra . Enjoying every minute of it.
You’ll be back
@@robhughes8516Dude trust me when i say this...I have used an iphone for 2 years iphone 6 & 5s still didn't enjoy my time with it! People told me i'll never be able to switch to any other phone after using an iphone but I felt happy & free switching back...Agreed iphone is a bit more stable but it's just boring & too locked for my taste..however each one to their own!
Who is enjoying? The person to whom you sold the iPhone or You 😄
@@robhughes8516wrong. I switched to Android in 2018 and have never looked back.
how do you find the size? i would get it but im worried about finding it too big to carry around...
This year, Im trying an android phone, traded my iphone 14 pro max for a titanium orange s24ultra. Im excited, probably will buy an iphone when the 16 series this year is released. Best of both worlds ❤
Umm a correction it isn't this year then. It should be 6 months, apple will be delivered by September this year as well 😄
You won't regret it this thing is a beast i got mine 3 days ago and got the update that it needed to fix the vivid and natural color issue that it came with, just got the update today and the camera is amazing. Good luck.
Did and doing the exact same thing haha
What’s funny is the iPhone 14 Pro Max which will be 2 years old in seven months is just as powerful as the S24 Ultra. Definitely not worth $1300.00. Should be more like $1000
@largon2008 where do you live? Is it the February patch?
I just upgraded to the ultra today and so far I'm loving it!
These shots from St. John's, Newfoundland are just crazyy
It's just an awesome phone. Got mine delivered last week and haven't been able to put it down.
open your arms by rotating 90 degree around elbow joint, and then suddenly open fingers. you will be put it down. I understand sometimes my robot is also not able to put it down but then I program these events 😅 let us know afterwards
Same got mine early and I'm scared how addicted I am
Same. I don't want to be so addicted with phone again but this one is so good. 120hz is so smooth. @@ayannadivineempathpsychict9838
Get a life. Both of you.😅
@@DS..69 this IS my life now 🤳
Samsung offered a lot of discounts this year making the S24U cheaper than last year. Traded in my S22U for 512GB S24U for only $585 tax included. This was such a good deal.
i just ordered my 23 ultra but ive never heard of a U lmao is it better or worse then the A series?
@@Tickefist S23U is S23 ultra
oh lmao@@sowpur
Yep. I traded my S21+ in for this phone and it was such a great deal. Paying less than I was before every month
Dude Samsung Dex!!!!!!
Dude Poor Signal!!!!!!
I just want to say i love your studio setup.
thank you!
@@MarkSpurrell No problem! 😁
Great video just watched on my s24 ultra black titanium 522gb unlocked enjoying it alot
Got mine a week ago. Can't stop using it - full of features and is a great companion for work and play. The iPhones are also great - but I just wanted more customisation and a more efficient multitasking experience than I get from iOS.
My fav part is the adjustable setting now i have a warm eye friendly text display like an ereader!!!!
The back reminds me of the Xperia Z5 Premium and I'm all here for it. ❤
I loved my s21 ultra. I said it would be my last phone for quite a while. Until this came along😊. The round corners and curved screen always bugged me about the s21 ultra. Using outdoors, what a display! I'm here in Paradise NL and was quite surprised how quick I received it from samsung. Ordered on 22nd, got it on the 26th. Great looking and familiar shots Mark.👌
A useful video, thanks. A question. I love the split screen, multi task capability. Do you know, if I was to use that split screen for an extended period of time, if it would noticeably decrease the battery life before a recharge is needed? I want to be able to monitor streaming, live stocks and crypto quotes and charts on half the screen while I do various things on the other half like youtube research or vids, calls or texts or emails, google searches and such, and when appropriate pull of the stock or crypto trading platform to place a trade, while still seeing the streaming quotes and charts above.
How would you compare it to pixel 8 pro from a user’s perspective?
what xbox usbc controller did you use in the beginning of the video???
Great review Mark, love the vibe of your videos as always!
I’m feeling kinda tempted to switch from iP13Pro to this one due the looks and these new IA features, especially photo ones, but I’m afraid I’ll miss the huge video quality of iPhone.
Have a great weekend!
That was my sticking point too for a little bit, but video on the s24 ultra is VERY close if not better in some instances. I'll have more to talk about with regards to that in my long term review!
@@MarkSpurrell that’s reassuring!
Looking forward for your full review
Btw the AI features are basically a free trial until 2025 and after that it's going to cost you
@@justadood4028its still 2 years to that "end of 2025" we'll see what happens post that..who knows the world may just end before that😊
It's funny, the curved edges started as a way to break away from the iPhone look and while they always looked great they've proven to be a liability. I never use a naked phone and slap on a screen protector and case right away. This is the first time I was able to put on a screen protector w/ no bubbles and the case fits tightly. The curve would be all covered up by the case. I had a Galaxy 9 and took it out of the case and it slipped out of my hands onto the kitchen floor... Now, I do everything on top of a towel at my desk. Great review.
Yeah, the curve was always sacrificing some practicality f0r the sake of a unit look. At this point I think manufacturers are finally accepting that, unless it's a foldable, all smartphones are gonna look super similar on the outside.
I just upgraded to my s24 ultra from a s9+ but that phone was such a great phone but dropped it so many times. But that curved display is pretty sexy to me although I think the s24u is way too big to have a curved display
I have a Samsung 10, I never wear glass, not a single scratch for 4 years. just use it carefully
I have the iPhone 15 pro max and honestly after watching this video. I’m actually kind of tired upgrading every year. Just nothing stands out anymore. At the end of the day I just use it for work, texting and making phone calls. Sometimes you just need to know when enough is enough.
I stopped upgrading after the 13 pro max. There's not enough real world difference to justify spending 1k+ every year
In my opinion, NO ONE should upgrade every year. That's rich coming from a tech youtuber that buys new phones every month, I know. But that's just the job. If I wasn't doing this full time, I'd still be using my S21 Ultra, no doubt about it.
Totally agree. It's already reached a point of enough satisfaction fulfilled when it's not necessary to be any faster because we only use some features of the phone.
Thats on you tho , not on the phones. I upgraded from an s10+ and before that I had an S4......and a 6splus iphone in between. You need to learn when to upgrade and when not to
@@MarkSpurrellthank you for the honest feedback
Can someone tell me if wired Android Auto still doesn’t suck!!!! That’s the main reason I left Android, wired Android Auto never worked properly on my 2021 Corolla.
That 1300 also includes the 7 years of security updates and OS updates. A lot of people forget that
And for me it includes a watch6 LTE and 120 euro cashback
How is discord app on the phone? It runs so sluggish on the pixel 8 pro and was wondering if its an android thing or just that specific phone. Disc runs smooth even on my old 13 pro max.
As a samsung user since S2, you'll like it. Apple is great too lots of times when iphones were better but I didn't care and will continue to stick even if apple make a better flagship. Although I did loving purchasing the ipods and use macbook pro as our main computers. I say you can't go wrong with either apple or samsung they both, IOS18 maybe will be talked in june or the September conference sure will have AI as well but also RCS chat to communicate better with android users.
what about Android in a Mac environment? Is sharing pictures and messages hard? What about videos?
Where can I find that plugged Xbox controller for my android? Looks cool
Great video Mark. Helped me understand the features of my new S24 Ultra.. Pricey but got a £230 trade in discount and spread the rest of the costs. Love the phone.
Amazing phone samsung absolutely nailed it again with their masterpiece of engineering done on this phone looking forward for the reviews
There are some things I miss about my S23 ultra, mainly the battery life and the camera. I switched out and got a fold 5. And I don't really think I can go back to a normal phone for my daily driver. My backup phone is the thinkphone from Motorola and I'm really digging the 144 Hertz screen Samsung really need the crank up there's. My brother also has the Motorola edge and it has 165 Hertz screen and it is super smooth gotten used to 120 Hertz
Great review but one thing caught me off guard. The thing you are most excited about is the longevity of this phone 😂. You are a phone reviewer and basically upgrade every year. How does that excite you the most 💀
Because he has to say that.
I’m in the same boat, currently have an iPhone 12 Pro Max, the iPhone 15 pro max just looks the same. Probably going for the S24 Ultra and using the beeper app to still access imessenger
When Apple integrates RCS, you won't need beeper!
You clearly haven’t held the 15 pro max next to your 12 pro max. Completely different feel to it.
@@niekmus8274 feel may be "different" looks and works the same though!
@@niekmus8274no no it isn’t. It’s the same phone but it uses usb c and has a floating dock
what xbox / knockoff controller is that?
Can I post high quality videos with this s24 ultra on the Instagram? My concern is whether it’ll be able to match the quality of iPhone videos on Instagram Reels. Now since Samsung partners with Instagram, what can we expect? Any thoughts?
Nowadays you basically can't see any diference Between Samsung and Apple, It`s quite the oposite actually haha 😄
Nope, they (Samsung) lied, as in any year before, about their "cooperation" with Instagram. It's pretty much the same
It seems like the only thing going for the iPhone nowadays is the ecosystem (if you’re locked in), universal iOS updates, and customer service. I’d seriously consider Sammy’s “Note” devices, if it weren’t for that. 🤔
I have all the Samsung Ecosystem products including Galaxy Tab, Watch, Buds and Tags they work quite seamlessly and provides at least 80% of the seamless ecosystem features apple provides with at least 2 times more additional features on each of the individual devices compared to their Apple counterpart (I have used an iPad and iPhone before I'm well aware of what they offer) so it's a win for Samsung I'd say
@@nafeeahnaf6296 My point about ecosystem is that it's not practical or economical for everyone to switch devices, let alone for, comparatively, 80% of the efficiency and/or additional features. So much more than a "better" device goes into such decision making.
I use samsung with apple air pods and its working fine@@nafeeahnaf6296
got my S22 Ultra since it came out and still works seamlessly; so excited for the the updates in the upcoming phones, this one already seems like quite the bump! Would love for them to focus on battery life; it does drain pretty quick when using Maps and Recording Videos
edit: also the colours look amazing, I hope they keep the gold in models to come!
Screen protectors are also cheaper, easier to install and replace. To many of us that was a big deal after years of curved displays that only made things worse, not better.
I had to replace a nagsafe case because it was throwing off the S-oen calibratulion.
Great content. As for the 1,300 for the phone, I go through my carrier and pay 54 bucks a month, which is much easier to digest than forking out the whole 1,300 at one time. But I'm gonna hang on to my s23 ultra, especially since we're getting 1ui6.1 with some of the AI.
Can you use the fingerprint sensor on the G24 to substitute password login like you can with Face ID?
Yes, you can.
Awesome review, Mark. I agree with the HDR video and photo feature, I am currently hating it coz it will just flash bright suddenly without notice.
This phone is really so hyped due to the AI features it has out of the box and the refinement from the older model but, but, it does not justify the reason to move from phone of last year to this s24 ultra. Just my take and it will always be different with anyone else
This is my first Galaxy Ultra phone. I've had base model Galaxy phone's before but never an Ultra. I upgraded to this phone from the Galaxy S23 and I'm loving it. Gorgeous phone and battery life on it is awesome (battery life is huge for me on an electronic device).
That 1080p monitor remark felt personal. 😂
24Ultra & 24Plus & iP15 user. Love. Them. All❤
Hi, I hope your week is going well. Just wanted to say I always enjoy watching your videos and I look forward to seeing your next video.
If I may ask a strange question, what brand are the glasses you are wearing? I’m looking to get new frames and I liked the style of your glasses. Thanks.
Thank you! They're a kind of raybans frames but I'm unsure what they're called exactly, sorry about that!
Thanks, if I may ask another question what does it say on the inside of the left arm frame? Since the brand and frame information is normally on the inside of the left arm. Thanks again.
If it doesn’t show the model information on the inside of the left arm then that’s alright. Thanks again for telling me the brand name, I’ll go browsing to see what looks similar to your glasses.
RB7159. Happy glasses shopping :)
Thanks for that, I was able to find the frames you use. Thanks again and take care, look forward to the next video.
AI in the notes app has been such a great addition for me. It was one of those things I thought wouldn't work well but it has definitely surprised me.
I wish they had released a 16 gb version
as a both iphone and galaxy and fold user. samsung hardware is very good, but ios with its built in apps are more polished and seamless, like files, notes, reminders, photos, passcodes, wallet, messages, maps street view, mail, watcg, etc, with samsung its still a bit fragmented, you need a samsung, google and microsfot account. once you get over the honey moon period thats when you should decide with suits you best, personallly i wouldnet say one is better, their both very good and both have their fustrations..
ESR screen protector eliminates one of the best features of the new phone. The anti reflective properties.
I actually just got rid of my s24 ultra and went back to the 15 pro max, waiting for Samsung to release the Z fold 6 depending seeing how that looks I’ll be back!
How do I disable the system's automatic retouching? I love the photo quality but 3 seconds after taking it, the Samsung retouches it and the quality becomes mediocre! The result is dreadful with system retouching. And yet I've set Intelligent Optimization to minimum...
Go into gallery settings and turn super hdr off
I have the s22 ultra and just ordered an unlocked s24 ultra. I prefer rounded edges on the screen. It doesn't make sense that Samsungs galaxy line has rounded edges where the ultras does not. Im a UX designer and visually sharp squared corners create visual borders like there is no where else for your eyes to go.
I'll be honest I'm really waiting for that rumored bigger iphone coming out this year. Because Samsung gave such a high trade in for my s22 ultra . Now my trade in will be higher with the s24 ultra when that new iphone comes out. I'm not one sided when it comes to these two OSs . I just like new tech.
Csn you share the wallpaper
5:25 Me actually watching on a 1080p monitor and being imprresed by the quality
Just moved from the 21 Ultra to the 24 Ultra today. So far, I agree. Phone OTY material.
Wouldnt mag lock case mess with the s-pen?
Hasn't messed with mine. Same when I had the s22u
Bro I don't know how did you do your camera test to say that the s24 ultra messed up with the portrait but let me tell you that it's the reason why I'm buying the s24 ultra.
You should try again
We using the same phone? It has rounded glass just not a rounded display
I want this but I just bought my iPhone pro 14 max last year 😢
Preordered black 1 TB version , cost me 1200
I got black too man
I ordered one yesterday to replace my 2nd phone that was an IPhone 15 plus. I wanted the orange but it’s just not orange enough so I went with the Violet…
I was shocked how unviolet it was. I thought it was black til I saw it in daylight
I still have my 15PM and iPad Pro etc. I then took the plunge and bought the S24U - I love it! I'm now rocking the Tab S9U which is superior, in my mind, to the iPad Pro. I'm now waiting for the Sammy laptop with that AI integration and I'm good for a long while
Battery better on s24 ultra over 15 pro max

@quadriderhonda yes I did. I had a slight issue where messages were not transferring.

People who are constantly hopping back and forth between android and apple, clearly don’t have that much invested in apps they paid for, or rely on the convenience of the ecosystem, when most of your family and friends, use iPhones. This would be a colossal pain in the ass in my case, to go to Android, when everyone else remains on Apple. This convinces me that most people who ecosystem hop, are REALLY just tech junkies who just like dicking around with a new shiny toy but don’t TRULY use the phone and its full features that the ecosystem offers. People who do, don’t take switching, lightly. It takes more than a new shiny object, to get people to switch. Those things are usually a continual degradation of user experience. And/or the continued extraction of value (aka: charging for features that were once standard).
Please also do a review of the regular S24 also...
Working on it :)
I was trying to chose between the Pixel 8 Pro 512gb or S24 ultra for the same price and after living with both i chose the Pixel. Its far mor comfortable to hold, smoother feeling, and much better haptic vibrations which is super important to me. Both are incredible and fit specific users very well.
Pixel is fine but a bit overrated and it's not a very powerful device the 24 ultra is just a more complete powerful device overall and the little things like the camera etc will get better with updates.
@@JamesThomas-dn6eea bit overrated at half the price?
@gilley6730 pixel pro 8 is not half the price lol 😆 wtf are you taking about
@@JamesThomas-dn6ee maybe he meant Pixel 8 (not Pro) :D
@DamianNocun why would he be mentioning the reg pixel in a 24 ultra comment section I think he got confused and thought the pixel pro is $700
U forgot to review the added green line function…😂
Want OnePlus 12 review.
It's worth the price. I traded my S21+ in for the S24 Ultra, and I am paying less a month now through Verizon, plus they threw in a Galaxy Watch 6. It's also worth it if you plan on actually keeping it for the 7 years of support.
Don't get the esr screen protector for the s24u dear God. The fingerprint sensor never works
Ditched my 13 Pro Max for the S24 Ultra, best decision ever. Screw iOS 17 and watchOS 10.
Review the s21 ultra please as the latest update turns it into a super s21 ultra
I stopped using iPhones after high school. Even then I knew apple quality was 💩
Samsung is a BEAST. I run split screen navigation and UA-cam on my Samsung fold 5
I taught a new android user who switched from iPhone how to use multi window (using two apps at the same time), DEX (to use the phone like a laptop on an external screen), the benefits of RCS messaging and the full WIDGET experience and they were MIND BLOWN!!!
Then they were immediately angry to learn that some of these features.....Android had since 2016 😅😅😅😅. I love Macs but the limitations put on iPhone is absolutely CRIMINAL.
Of course it's not worth that price, because if you are able to wait 6 months, you'll pick up an unwanted in-contract upgrade from eBay for £500 less. That's what I've always done for my phones and it works for me.
Samsung Ultra is a cool phone and they really hit the mark with the AI features, only issue after 2025 they are talking about charging for some of those features. Will consumers be willing to pay to keep them? Also when Apple brings AI to the iPhone I will assume it will adapt to apple ecosystem and will come without having to pay for the features in the future.
that's funny apple charges u 4 everthing 😮.. didn't the only give 6 months 4 satellite service then a fee?
I just wish they made this in a smaller size, like a S24 or smaller
Increasing the minimum internal storage to at least 512GB should accommodate for 7 years of software support. Each software update packs a ton.
Look into good lock by Samsung you’ll be very happy!
This phone is the best phone out right now easily. Coming from an iPhone 15 Pro Max and it's not even close. The price? I got $120 off from Samsung and with more space at 512G. The iphone is more expensive than that.
Did u try snap
The iPhone isn’t more expensive size for size, they are the same price… iPhone is still the best out there without the gimmicks… and according to Dxomark the s24 is much lower down the line in quality than the iPhone and that’s anxious when you see the pics.
@@kobebrlw1643 ?
@@robhughes8516 dxomark is a lie.none cares about it,and you are isheep no doubt cz iPhone is sold 1800$ in India with the specs not even close to S24 Ultra. It’s truly a overpriced crap
I'm loving the Galaxy s24 ultra. It's probably the fastest phone that I've ever used.
Have the Burgundy S22 Ultra.
Find it absolutely gorgeous. And I love that Curved Display.
Really sad to see Sumsang ditch it.
Both my S22U and Pixel 7 Pro have gorgeous curved displays, and I absolutely love em.
The first thing whenever I use a Flat Display is how the moment your finger goes from the edge of the display to the bezel, that weird and uncomfortable feeling [especially with a screen protector on] is repulsive to me.
I still don't understand why Sumsang killed the Note. Note and Ultra were rightly two different entities in their own.
They should've stuffed a larger battery and flat screen in the Ultra, and keep the S-Pen and curved Display for the Notes.
ESR tempered glass screen protectors interfere with the fingerprint scanner. I had a horrible experience with them. Amazon isn't allowing new reviews because many people are having the same problem. Maybe you shouldn't be recommending them.
I have a zagg tempered glass in mine. It works just fine.
Did you miss iMessage? Thats the only thing keeping from switching.
Nah not at all
IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE AND RECEIVE THE CALLS AS WELL?
Tried it. Hated it.
Also, all language- or text-related AI functions are useless for me since they don’t support Dutch.
Think about it 1,450$ for something one can choose to use for 7+ years... definetly worth the price, considering im coming from over a decade of using apple iPhones and Products, im loving my S24 Ultra.
ESR cases easily yellow!
Android manufacturer are now realizing keeping current customers is also an investment for the long term. 2-3 years software updates are not enough, especially when Apple supports their devices 5-6 years.
Just got my s24 ultra,what an amazing phone and off course I'm always to see an apple fan switching to samsung.
A flat screen feels new lol
As a apple user myself it pains me to admit this, but I find myself wanting to use my S24 ultra more than my 15 pro max which is my primary phone.
Why would it pain you to admit that? You’re recognising that it’s the better device.
My rounded corner iPhone 14Pro plus, is already wearing holes through my pocket. Good luck with those sharp corners.
You gotta be doing something wrong to have a phone wear holes in your pocket
If you currently have the S23 Ultra there is no real need to upgrade to the s24 ultra, for all the AI features that the s24 ultra has will be coming to the s23 Ultra in a future update!
I was gonna get the Ultra, but them bezels need to do some squats and eat some macaroni and cheese. I got the S24 plus, and it's perfect for me
As per the price of the Galaxy S24 line up, I'm really not sure what Samsung could have provided to justify asking $1,000 or more for this line up or any previous line up. What it comes down to is that customers are somehow willing to pay over $1,000. Maybe because it's usually subsidized you pay no mind to what you're actually paying? 🤷♂
A few things I can think of that could MAYBE make me consider paying an exorbitant amount for a phone - *headphone jack, more battery life, removable battery, modularity (like the fair phone or whatever it's called), along with modularity the ability to swap out ram/storage capacity for more or less of either.* I know why none of this is for real, it would give you, the end user, far too much freedom not to mention profit loss from no one buying more phones.
It really is a game change of a phone, BUT every other phone manufacturer will jump on the bandwagon of Samsung. Bad - good? Well, yes its very good as it forces Apple to accept that a locked down environment is not good
So the Ultra 23 didn’t convince you but the 24 did when it’s not that much difference in them. 😐
I've never owned the S23 Ultra.
I bought a 1tb version and can't replace my z fold 4 with it. The z fold 4 is way more versatile
