This video can be helpful for a majority of users that are coming from older devices, let's say a S21 Ultra, and they are deciding between the "latest and most expensive" or "save money and buy last years phone"
We were buying new phones in 2023 ?. Wasn't that to replace the one you bought in 2022 lol. Its the way things work now. Trust me being 66 in a month & retiringI will be in possession of the s24 ultra & out snapping away.
@AuthenTech yes well said, I am replacing a s21 ultra at end of contract. I retire in a monthso this is my travelling gadget & interest, especially photos.
I used to be a serial phone changer (I usually upgraded every 6 months), but I've stuck with the S23 Ultra since release. It's the only phone that I feel comfortable using for multiple years, and I will only probably upgrade this phone when there is a significant upgrade in night time videography.
@user-xf2sp5xz7n what for camera or general phone? Cuz s24 had a stronger and better screen with less glare and way longer phone updates and I think similar optimization actually the same basically
TBH the differences are so small now that how we're reviewing these devices needs to change entirely. The quality bump on any phone is not needed really... Almost any mid to high range phone these days has a good enough camera that needs a good photographer is all...
Quite disappointed in the S24 Ultra this year. Sure, maybe they upgraded the camera in some aspects, but in terms of zoom... I don't think so. I think s23 ultra zooms better. What's even the point of buying the s24 ultra then? They promoted their AI features quite a lot, but even the s23 series will get it. Design also pretty much the same. Hopefully they will do something impressive for the s25 ultra.
@@doitjustdoit-ee9roThat's a downgrade for me. I just use a anti spy screen protector which is terrible with it's anti glare screen, makes it hard to see. Also with a screen protector it's pretty much impossible to scratch. Also the aluminium is a better heat conductor and with a good case it's near impossible to break since the aluminium takes in most of the shock from a drop whereas on a titanium phone the Titanium is less likely to dent but all the force of the drop goes to other parts of the phone making the glass far more likely to break. Huge downgrade imo.
No way when I changed my phone was I spending the extra on the S24 Ultra, its raw files are tiny and the 5x optical zoom is a backward step. I'm delighted I went for the S23 Ultra instead.
It looked like the s23 had more contrast or dynamic range or something , giving the footage just a bit more depth , which i found more pleasing. it made the s24 footage look slightly flat in comparison. Especially noticeable with the footage of the train. That's quite surprising.
You know you look like the guy from that GOT scene where he tells a funny story and then pee against a wall completely drunk. Then the Mountain appears behind him and smash his skull against the wall LOL. You even have his voice !!
Which settings do you adjust so the 20 or even 50x zoom looks so nice?? My s22ultra looks im taking photos with a nokia 😢, blurry and so horrendous photos it shoots
@@MegaAluchi I have a 23 ultra, and i can say the battery lasts me all day. I took it off the charger about 8: 30 this morning and with pretty heavy use at midnight its only at 44%
Too sad to said S24U zoom ability this year not good as S23U last year :(((. I used S23U at least 8_9 months and i can see this so clear after switching to S24U.
It isn't quite as good at 10x magnification and above in comparison to the 23 Ultra for sure. It comes closer that I thought it would though to be fair.
Tbh i dont start seeing much of a difference until you start getting into low light. I got the s23 ultra because it was what i could afford on amazon renewed and couldnt be happier with it, its still imo a top of the line smart phone.
It really is no real difference. My wife has s22 ultra. I have the s24 ultra. The difference is all in the software. When the update comes in March or April it will be the same phone.
Oh, the upgrade is huge. Finally samsung can get rid the whitewashed effect. U can see in 23 ultra, sometimes the photo is white-washed. But in 24 ultra, it is more detailed without whitewashed effect
0 point in upgrading. Samsung needs to hit it out of the park with camera tech for the 25 ultra if they want ppl to upgrade from their 23 ultra. Gives us optical variable aperture zoom. A bigger sensor for ultra wide, make the zoom lens able to take macro(make this sensor size 1/1.7 at least) same with ultra wide sensor size wise, and yeah... BIGGER higher end sensors. 23 ultra will last for years to come without the want for upgrading.
Hi can u do a video regarding front camera focusing issue when taking group selfie in s23 ultra,the person holding the phone only getting focus reamining are not
As s23ultra user i can say that quality of details in good lifht photos are the same. X3 and x10 is better than x3 and x5 tele in s24u. But the biggest difference is low light photography (s24u is way more better colors and white balance). Also i dont like the way how my s23u loves to do colors more saturated and sometimes its very artificially But therefore, i wont switch s23u for s24u at least zoom is dope asf
As far as I can see, it's not the same position the phones were held in for the photo and because of that the s23 was at a disadvantage. The angle of incidence of the light was higher (it was kept on the left side), the resulting images favor the s24
I'm confused - you recommended that awesome spinning ring case, but I've checked and there's only a version for the iPhone.... But this video is for android users....
Yet, motion is still an area the camera massively struggles, and it hasn’t gotten any better this year. If anything in your shot is moving (or even if it’s not, sometimes), the end result can often be a blurry mess
How is the battery life of S23 Ultra compared with the S24 Ultra? I do a lot of live streaming outdoor and video recording and I noticed when I have my s20 plus(brand new bought last year) the battery drops from 100% to 45% in only one hour and 25 minutes. So battery life is a deal bresker for me. Your input is highly appreciated thanks
I was considering buying a good smartphone for photography and video and you made it absolutely clear that I don't need to spend that much money on a smartphone. Thank you! This was very helpful. I know that iPhones are very good at it, but I can't get used to them.
Same thing, let's just be honest.. I also got the Sony ZV E1 full frame, 4k camera and sometimes it does better than any phone, especially blurry background, the ability to change lenses and a lot more features.
Love this video!! I have an iPhone 15 Pro max and I love the image stabilization for videos but don’t love the 5x optical zoom so I’m thinking of buying the S23 Ultra just for its camera. What do you think of the S23 video image stabilization vs that of the iPhone 15 pro max? Thanks so much!
Magnet case holders mess with the SPen! No dice for me. Comparison was well done and helpful. Tempted to upgrade from my S23U but it works flawlessly. Camera differences seem minimal. Wait for S25U. This is where a more distinctive change and perfection of S24U will happen. S24U is a transition phone. Awesome in its own right for sure but will be further improved upon.
I need to upgrade my phone. I have an iphone 7 plus rn. I would've gone with apple, but I am really confused since samsung is much more compatible with other devices. can you also tell me that between iphone and samsung which smartphone has a better life, in terms of smooth useage after few years of using
Are there any different adjustments or settings for the front facing camera? I just recently got the S24 ultra and i feel like it has an Ugly filter on it. Lol my Older S10plus is so much better with multiple options for skin smoothing etc. And options for skin tone like a cool , warm and natural. This new phone doesnt have any of that. It has 2 options warm or Natural. I choose natural and i look too orange or idk. And sometimes it makes my skin look like clay. I hate it. I can look in my bathroom mirror and my face looks better in real time. Im so confused
I noticed a much bigger difference between the S23U and S24U. The S24U has much better colors and detail especially foliage and greens. Less oversharpening en better contrast. Maybe there's some variation between the same units
the AI post photo processing of s24 ultra on 200mp, 50mp and food mode, really sucks and disgusting, when you go to your gallery pictures are dark and pixelated, hope samsung will fix it
I upgrade from my NOTE 20 ULTRA, cant wait to get my Orange/24Ultra / 1TB/ Unlock phone , since phones these days over $1000 , i would upgrade every few years
Much of a muchness. Definitely not worth twice the price. You can pick up the S23 Ultra now for a bargain-basement price in regions that still have it in stock

On the s23 ultra night video zoom. You need to go into camera assistant and turn off auto lens switching. It'll look a lot cleaner.
Thank you for the tip. I wish this option was built-in to the default camera app.

😂😂 I bought basic S23 early 2023, and last week, i bought S23 Ultra. Dont know what happen to me but it felt very tempting after seeing S24 Ultra😂😂
Why did they put worse camera in the new phone? Apart from the last low light zoom, just about every photo was better on the S23.

I see Zoom on S23 Ultra is Much better than S24Ultra
yes but the megapixels increased from 10 to 50 on the zoom lense. Its a wash....

How tf did you mimic exact hand movements in time and sync your speech as well in supposedly two separate recordings?
Easy to figure out. 6:18 both phones mounted on the same stand / selfie stick.
Could you compare the s22 ultra against the s24? The s23 wasn't a significant upgrade last year and i'd love to see the difference now.
