      @@midnitestate I don’t have any experience with One Plus phones. I know a lot of people love them and I’m sure there’s a reason. Samsung has just been following and overly Apple route the passed few generations. I get it… building an ecosystem and creating brand loyalty and all. I just feel price to actual performance ratio especially this generation you’re going to get more bang for your buck with a Pixel and their camera and integrated AI features and software support than anything else. That aside I fully understand the Samsung polish on their hardware and specs… their phones run impeccably and have every bell and whistle you can imagine.

Samsung makes a great product but having alot of the bloat tagged on with the ai stuff (which most ill never use or need) being a service down the road is lame. The one plus 12 is a BEAST of phone but its going to come down to pricing as they usually under cut sammy by a good margin and now are offering decent trade ins.

    You are missing several things Gorilla glass armor is only on the ultra not plus. Ultra has a titanium frame, it also has WiFi 7 the plus is WiFi 6e. The ultra screen glass also has an anti reflective coating and is 4x more scratch resistant. Everyone also seems to forget that the ultra has laser assisted auto focusing the plus does not. Ultra has the spen, 5x camera and slightly larger battery. From reports iv read of users testing the phones the speaker quality is better on the s24 ultra and camera quality is also better on ultra version. Are all these things worth $300 more not sure it does make it more difficult to justify the ultra because the plus is close but if you want the best you still have to go ultra.

      Probably not most people don't even have Wi-Fi 7 and in terms of future proofing most people who buy the ultra phones upgrade every couple years anyways so having it is a future proof option doesn't really matter either on top of that a lot of people just use screen protectors so the glass doesn't matter at all The speaker difference isn't noticeable to most people unless you're an audio file and the battery life will probably end up being identical considering that it's only 100 milliamps difference and you have a smaller screen so the phone uses less power regardless

    Secondly, it's essential to note that the S24+ is available in two versions. The USA/CANADA/CHINA variant is equipped with the Qualcomm SM8650-AC Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 CPU and Adreno 750 GPU (1 GHz). On the other hand, the international version boasts the Exynos 2400 CPU and Xclipse 940 GPU.

    Nice video. Thank you ! Just ordered the 24+. Can't believe I bought a purple phone. If you mentioned it I missed it, but the display on S24 variants has a big jump in brightness up to 2600 nits from 1700 something for the S23+. I get there are diminishing returns, but I expect better outdoor performance over the max 1,300 nits of my S20 Ultra that I traded in. When I bought the Ultra I convinced myself that I had to have the best variant available with a bigger screen and battery, better cameras, etc. I had to check myself this go around. I don't take that many photos or videos anymore, the battery is nearly the same now, and I doubt I'd use the S Pen. In other areas, the S24 Plus is so close to the Ultra, that for me I'd rather pocket the $300. It's subjective, but I like the look of the rounded edges of the 24 and 24+.

    Improved battery capacity, with the S24 Plus having a 4,900mAh battery.
    Similar screen technology, both supporting a 1Hz to 120Hz refresh rate.
    Both phones have 45W fast charging and Gorilla Glass Victus protection.
    Identical software support with seven years of software updates and security patches.
    Considerations:
    The S24 Plus is seen as a more affordable alternative, offering many features similar to the Ultra model.
    The Ultra model justifies its higher price with the S Pen, a larger camera, and additional telephoto zoom capabilities.

    The s24+ redeems itself from the embarrassing releases of the 21 22 and 23. The 20+ was the best of the series until they ruined it by removing the microSD card, led notification light and making it smaller with worse resolution. The s24+ is the baby ultra minus a few camera downgrades and anti glare coating. This is the one to get if you don't like a big ass bathroom tile in your pocket.

She doesnt even game on her phone....mostly uses it to watch her dramas. I think she will appreciate the speed of the 120hz while not knowing what that means. She also wont know the difference in the camera department. She usually asks me anyways to take the pictures with my phone (currently pixel 8 pro). S24+ it is for her.

    Also, I believe you forgot to mention (at least at the end, I FF through some of the video), that the Ultra's front is Gorilla Glass Armor, which gives the screen phenomenal brightness in the sun, and it has a titanium frame, which is much more durable, whereas the Plus' front is only Gorilla Glass Victus 2; the screen is much dimmer in sunlight, and it has an aluminum frame, which isn't as sturdy as titanium.

    I don't particularly want another Samsung phone, because if my expensive af "flagship" phone that I've treated like a first-born son, is dying when it's not even been in my hands for 3 years yet.
    I'm looking at the Xperia line, I wish the 5 V was made for the US, I've heard you can flash the 1 V US modem files on to it, but that's a bit risky considering I've only modified old game consoles and not modern phones. So seems like the 1 V might be my Obi-Wan Phone, unless the 1 IV is released before I upgrade.
    I kinda want to wait to see if the 5 VI will get a US release, but I also know that it's pointless to wait another half year or more for a phone that may not happen, especially when one's current device is starting to malfunction as it is (referring to my dying star of a phone)

    Coming from an s23 ultra, i pre-order the s24 plus. The headset speaker on the s23 ultra is too low. Going back to what I know, the Plus

    I wonder if the "AI for all" is applicable if you are in a region where the Exynos 2400 Soc is supplied to S24 and S24+ given the AI features is advertized with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3?

    "No 8 gigs of RAM anymore. That's a big plus." Nice pun there, intended or not.

    If I lived in America I would buy the plus model but in the UK where I live it has the exynos chip, so I will be going for the Ultra.

      I keep seeing comments about issues with the exynos for Europeans, is it not compatible?

      @carchpotato The exynos performance is grand (though not as good as the snapdragon). The main issue with it is that it isn't as power efficient, hence poorer battery life and it has also had heating issues in the past. I would guess that the exynos 2400 is likely a downgrade on the snapdragon 8 gen 2 (on the s23 models).

      The SD Gen 3 is also a lot more compatible for third parties. I've seen a few vids where features such as screen res are cut down for gaming.

    Informative video. It will be the S24+ for me. Thank for your clear & very informative explanation of the differences between the phones. Great video 👍🏾

    I'm excited for August to see what the next flip phone brings. I want one so bad, but I wanted my P8 Pro first. I'll have this for like 5 yrs, almost 7. I'll either get the Z Fold 5 on sale or the new one.

    Traded my s23 ultra for the s24+. The only reason I went with the ultra last time was because it was on sale I really hate the curved glass. That being said this time around I would have went with the ultra just to have the top tier specs and the flat panel but honestly it's just too big and bulky. I don't care about the s pen. The form factor of the plus is just better and it's lighter. Saved myself a couple hundred bucks.

    I have to admit through bestbuy I can upgrade my 23 ultra to a s24+!for $150. Very tempted for the reasons you stated and my own ai adventures on my s23 ultra would be faster.. The pictures I take would look good on both and honestly using more voice to text then spen. I keep wondering next year the deal might not be as good so might as well upgrade

    Traded in my wifes S22 Ultra for the S24+ for $349. I also got $125 to spend in the Samsung store. The deal Samsung had us better than Best Buy for our trade. It was a no brainer for us to go with the 24+.

    Would you buy the Samsung S24+ or the Pixel 8 Pro? I like Pixel's software better, however, looking at both deals on Samsung and Google, the Samsung's deal is far better. Right now I have the Pixel 7 and the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra. I can't believe how crappy the trade in amounts are on Google. I could actually get the S24 Ultra now and pay about $35 less than getting the Google because of trade-in amounts. I just hate the boxy design of the Ultra.
