      What are the main benefits?

      ​@P__114

      Sooth and powerful
      Big screen and awesome batterylife
      And the pen is a must

      For the features:
      You can pin stuff on acreen or work on 2 apps simultaneously or one app above 2 running apps also the other features is seamlessly integrated in the system making editing,sharing and emails and sheets with the file system a much better experience

    Samsung only did one thing that the people asked for, which was to make the ultra with a flat screen, but didn’t make the selfie camera hidden under the display along with making the screen a 144hz refresh rate and giving it a 16 gig ram. I mean, even the s21 ultra came with 16 gig ram and were in 2024 it should DEFINITELY automatically come with a 16 gig ram. They also are going backward in charging capabilities. It should come with 65w fast charging automatically. For the price, it’s just unnecessary.

    Why is the reviewer trying to advocate to gatekeep software features? Tf?

  5. @A7medAbdouu

    January 26, 2024 at 12:26 pm

    Samsung paid a lot to youtubers to repeat the same stupid script of AI, the phone apparently is a flop and a replica of last year’s phone, and they are trying to push it again with the stupid AI propaganda and Samy won’t sell as much as they want this year.

  7. @MrIloveulongtime

    January 26, 2024 at 12:59 pm

    there is just no convincing me that the ultra is worth 300$ for a pen and slightly better camera. If anything the ultra feels oddly cheaper. I went and tested both in store and chose the plus easily.

  8. @gregp.7148

    January 26, 2024 at 1:14 pm

    My 6.9” S20 Ultra still works like a charm. Not seeing enough reasons to upgrade. And really like my other phone, the iPhone 13 Pro Max.

  9. @kakashi99908

    January 26, 2024 at 1:23 pm

    I have an S20 with screen burn in and the battery life is pretty poor even with a replacement battery. I think I will either get a S24 and keep it for 3+ years or buy a used Fold 3 to hold me over until the S25.

  10. @5staroftheweek

    January 26, 2024 at 1:31 pm

    How come none of the influencers that I watch on YouTube, That review the S24, Don’t mention having to pay for the AI features in 2025???

    • @Docfly62

      January 26, 2024 at 3:13 pm

      maybe not this one but yes most I saw did mention it. Heck, that’s how u know about it.

  11. @DamascusHarris

    January 26, 2024 at 1:44 pm

    Reviewers have not mentioned that Samsung, direct and via carrier partners, is giving $650 on the trade of an S22 Ultra, effectively bringing the cost of the phone down to $650 along with $100/$200 in credit towards accessories. If you trade an S23 Ultra they give $750. So that cost versus feature analysis should be revisited.

  12. @ChowdahBFH

    January 26, 2024 at 2:27 pm

    You failed to mention the new Gorilla Armor Screen, and the lower reflectivity that comes with it. Uncomplete review

  13. @Lightmanone

    January 26, 2024 at 2:31 pm

    Are you absolutely out of your mind? You would have LIKED it that the Ultra would have something exclusive? Are you crazy??? GATEKEEPING IS BAD. My god. Praise them for it. You can now choose the phone you actually WANT instead of having to worry you miss out of stuff. You want a better camera? Go with the more expensive one. Want a pen, go for the Ultra. But all of them are good enough to use ALL the features. You pay for HARDWARE this time, not software. This is a GOOD direction!

    The ultra isn’t a separate device it’s one of the 3 s24 devices so they all should have the AI features. The ultra already has exclusive camera features and the whole suite related to the s-pen.

  16. @user-qi1gg1gs5b

    January 26, 2024 at 2:58 pm

    So its basicly the s22 ultra and s23 ultra

  17. @hienho15

    January 26, 2024 at 3:16 pm

    Love the review. I buy Samsung and I like hearing the criticisms sometimes. Not everything you purchase or your preferences are perfect. Personally I probably use one of the AI features on there and the rest is pointless to have because I used others google app for it anyway. I would love Samsung to copy the “Voice to Text” features like the one on the pixel phone. It is so great to use your voice to text. All androids have it but the pixel takes it to another level. It allows to correct mistakes without having to touch the keyboard.

    Do people upgrade only from the S23U?

  21. @emjm9383

    January 26, 2024 at 3:38 pm

    i use my S22U for building inspections, and like the 10x zoom to shoot small details of things far out of reach. i think i’ll miss not having a 10x zoom.

    I have to upgrade after 4 years with my 20+. And needing DEX this was the choice I made. Ain’t nobody paying full price for this phone though… Like do a little research.

    Please don’t promote software gatekeeping as good. Sure it would likely benefit Samsung as a company, but it’s one of the worst things for consumers, and Samsung is one of the few companies not to do this. Are you reviewing the phone from the perspective of a consumer or the perspective of Samsung’s sales team?

  36. @NoirHammer

    January 27, 2024 at 11:26 am

    I can’t wait to save up every penny for the S24 so I can then put the money into important stuff like rent, food, and bills.

  37. @joedavison2675

    January 27, 2024 at 11:30 am

    Does this still have signal/connectivity issues likes the S23 Ultra? I spent so much time with 1 to 2 bars of 5G sometimes slipping into full 4G while my wife on her S22 Regular has full 5G. Very concerning if still persist.

  38. @nuyou21

    January 27, 2024 at 12:52 pm

    So, the S24 Ultra looks the same as previous years but with Apple’s titanium and Google’s AI. Talk about coming off as desperate these days Samsung 🤭🤦‍♂

    Do you guys think it’s worth upgrading from an S22U 512GB to the S24U 1TB?

    Samsung’s website makes it enticing eith the trade in value and discounts. It would be around $700 for the upgrade. Not sure if i should keep it for another year and save money or go for the upgrade.

    Such an ugly phone, I’m sorry, but that rectangle boxy look just like big cop out. Its surprising though how even a phone from 2017 is still good enough for what most do and need.

    Well 1st, most people will be trading in their phones and paying less than 1300. I got my ultra for $712 before tax with trade. And all phone have reached a point where their not much else you can do to the design without taking a risk of off putting the consumer. So I think most people shouldn’t upgrade every year 2 years is the minimum and when the phone can’t do updates is ideal.

  45. @ALONZOBELL

    January 28, 2024 at 9:00 am

    I’m keeping my S23 ultra.

    I purchased the S24 ultra for the wife’s birthday. I use the Samsung trade in program to get the best price everytime I purchase a new phone. This purchase gave me free ear phones. Thanks Samsung.
