I have upgraded from the Galaxy Note 20 ultra to the S25 ultra, received it yesterday, thought I would try my S pen from my Note 20 in the S25 Ultra it fits perfectly and the put button locks in . The pen works perfectly on the S25 Ultra without having to add an extra pen. I am going to let the pens battery run down and see if it charges it in the S25 Ultra, from what I have found there is a charging coil in there, so this will give me a spare pen. Cheers Bryon
Hi, very interesting video, especially since I have had this S25 ultra since yesterday, the only thing is that during your explanations you went too quickly through the steps in the menus. Thank you
@@Cemilaws it will come back after some sending messages. Don't worry. It's normal when you have a new device. The keyboard will recognize words after when you make messages again after a few times.
@Cemilaws i know,but in the last 5 years many, maybe tó many things has changed. Btw.. I'm using Gboard since a long long time and in my opinion it's more easily to use,faster with memory of the words you type. Maybe you have to give it a try..
How do we go about transferring our stuff from iPhone to Samsung? Cause I’ve heard that app struggles to transfer messages I’m not trying to lose those
HI, another great video and useful tips too thanks. I have a query which hopefully you might be able to answer, when I'm in the Alaways on page the 'Erase background' is ghosted and cannot be activated! Any ideas please..
I been following along with your video. In the camera setting. I do not see Camera Assistant listed. After vibration feedback. It just shows the next category Privacy. Did I miss something to get that?
@@bmarshdecoratorsltd I did some digging. Looks like you have to get an additional app from the Galaxy store. If you do a search for " good lock app in the galaxy store " It will tell you about it.
If you could please also give me your honest advice: I have a perfect working S21 Ultra 512 GB storage - 16GB RAM version. I was always planning on upgrading after 4 years to the S25 U 1 TB version. I expected it to have 16 GB of RAM or more too. Especially after 4 years. Being only a 12GB is disappointing. After reading and watching all these videos and and comparisons, I am not convinced the S25U is a good deal now. Would you advise me to take a S24 U 1TB iso this one? Does the new chipset and soft and- hardware 'improvements' justify buying the S25 U over the S24U coming from a S21U or not? Or do you advise to wait and see how the S25 will fare in the coming weeks and months before making a final decision? Do you think that with software updates, the video and camera quality aswell as other features would make it a much better one than the S24U? Or is it for example really the camera hardware that has hit a ceiling and can't do any better? After all the negative feedback regarding the S-Pen, do you think Samsung is capable of introducing a S-Pen BT Version after a couple of weeks or months? Especially if sales are not what they expect them to be. Am thingkibg of the Z Fold SE version versus the Z Fold 6 debacle... Thank you for your help and advice...
Got mine a week ago, upgraded also from a s21 ultra, you can notice the difference and really feels nice, the ai thing is fun too. the deal Samsung gives with the trade in is worth it 😊
How do I fix the audio. When I am filming outside and it's windy the audio is terrible. You can barley hear my voice when recording. Its like the ai feature is trying to drown out the wind but then you can barely hear the person talking on camera. Audio filming indoors or with no wind is fine. I have the s25 plus. When I film in the wind using the Instagram app, the audio is fine.
If you have the gallery synced to one drive the you just log into onedrive in the files app and your pictures will just appear in the gallery and no need to transfer through smart switch. Its quick especially since i have over 6000 pictures and videos
It seems like the Navstar update is already out on some markets since it doesn't say unplugged with my s25 ultra. You can probably sideload it if you can find the apk, but personally I would wait for the update.
Could you do a video on all the AI features this phone has? And how it can be used in everyday life? That unpacked had so much, and I guess I didn't quite understand everything it can do now. Especially the samsung health stuff. Thanks for this video one ui 7 is a pretty decent change and this info is helpful.
UPDATE: never mind - some reason on accessibilty "reduce background blur" was turned on by default. not sure why!!! turned it off now i can see my notifications as NORMAL 10:26 your notifications seem better them mine - i have dark mode due to it helps my eyes but the notifications are on a pure pure pure black screen with NO separation so it looks like an ugly list - have i missed something? (i turned off the separate panels though as it annoyed me) yours look like in separate "rounded corner bubbles" if that makes sense. mine are all together in a long big ugly black screen list - but i cant stand not having phone in general not in dark mode - plus seems to save battery UPDATE: even on light mode the background is pure black i think thats the issue, how do you get the blurred background image instead?
Samsung's photography has a huge problem. If you turn on the video stability in the camera settings, then at five times and more than five times, the video recording will shake by itself. It is highly recommended that you see if this situation also occurs.
Honestly, the three buttons on the bottom are much more convenient; they are always there, unless in full-view video or camera mode, etc. Much more useful, IMO, than a gesture bar.
There's no right answer in this case. I'm never switching to gestures, but people who have switched swear by it and don't want to go back. Both are fine.
The same could be said for the gesture bar? It is always there except during full-screen video. and doing the back gesture is always there and exactly the same in any app....
I'm never going back to 3-buttons. I don't want to precisely hit the buttons, gestures is much easier for one-handed use. You can [back] at any point in the left/right side, [home] or [windows] at any point in the bottom. Much less stress for the hand, plus you get a cleaner looking screen.
As someone coming from an iPhone. This makes it a lot better for me, since I’m used to using gestures. I don’t like those buttons. Makes my screen look ugly. Why have 3 buttons on my screen constantly?
zoom in mic sucks - first thing to keep off IMO. If youre at a music event or festival the sounds changes as you zoom in. Its really annoying and unnatural. Also the audio playback pause when recording video, I keep that off as well as if im listeing to some tunes and want to record the party of whatever, I want the music to keep playing. I want whatever is happening now to carry on to be natural exactly as i have it when im recording a video :)
I traded in my fold 4 for the s25 ultra. I backed up my fold 4 on an SSD drive. Can u explain how to upload this backup from an SSD device to the s25 ultra, please
people has been theorizing that Samsung wants it completely removed, slowly stripping off its functions until less than 1% use it so they can justify removing it.
If you use a wire, it does it in about half the time, but you have to make sure the wire actually supports data.😅 why do they put out cables that don't support data?I don't know
Smart Switch was a total failure for me. Could not activate Sasmung Wallet, push notifications would not work, Watch 7 would not restore and had to be reset, and cloud sync for gallery would not let me sync back to phone. In the end after following Samsung troubleshooting they advised me to do factory reset and restore by cloud backup. Did that and still have issues and lost some data as backup was not complete and failed to completely restore. Last year my S23U to S24U was perfect but I really do not think Smart Switch was 100% working on new Android / One UI. Also, I still cannot use Samsung Wallet on phone, keeps telling me there is an issue with Google Play Services which was reset with factory reset.
Please help with the Samsung Galaxy S25+ 1. How do I disable and remove the call recording feature and icon from the call screen? 2. How to remove notification? "Group Conversations Will Be Sent As Multimedia." I get this notification every time I open group chat messaging. 3. Is Grammarly still pre-installed? I no longer see the option on the keyboards.
I upgraded form the Note 9 to the S25 Ultra. The Smart Switch feature did NOT work at all. Not even when I used a USB. Had to take it to my SP to do it.
For me, the smart switch Cloud service doesn't work for me at all (neither does transferring to a PC). I HAVE to use an external hard drive, which can be slow
I got it and those who don't, my honest answer is its not worth it. The camera zoom in night is useless. Also there is still the stutter issue. From first 50 photos most of them had blurry face.
Has anyone noticed the S25 ultra having slightly worse vibration motor than the S24 ultra? The S24 ultra with the call vibration set to max definitely feels and sounds more premium, more full bodied. The S25 ultra feels and sounds tinnier. Anyone confirm this or maybe it's just me?
@@DarthIzu then it means that all the battery test that people have done 2 days or week after release were wrong? altho they compared s24ultra and 25ultra and 25 ultra were better? something is odd in this case ...if whats you are saying is right and s24 ultra can hold up to 7 hours for example and 25ultra can up to 9hours in the first days then it means that it will last longer ?
@@toxicwolf3038 I'm not gonna lie I don't really look into the specifics too much. I was just told battery life improves drastically after it learns your usage patterns. I upgraded from the S23U to S25U and I already see a major difference in battery life. It's only been a week.
I have downgraded to the S25 Ultra and find myself missing the rectangular display:( Previous version was really pro, this time its more a consumers gadget
The problem is less about easily pryable rings but more about the how cheap it feels. They are tacked on, look cheap and they leave a small gap where it will collect dust and won't be easy to clean. They add little value to the design and that cost could have gone towards something else in the phone, like the BT components of the Spen for example.
Jerry can hack any phone's camera ring if he wants to he probably just picked on the s25 ultra because it has a tiny gap at the bottom of the camera rings and they are not easily removed you can tell he really used some force to take it off. Why would any of us do that to any phone?

How do you completely turn it off
I'm a photographer since a Kid. Started with a Canon AE-1 SLR with an Enlarger and developed my own prints

Is your display grainy? Like when watching videos and looking at photos from social media sites? Mine are, & I upgraded from the galaxy s21 ultra...

Is it possible to access the calculator from the quick setting when swiping down?
great video lad 👍 thx mate
What about RAMplus? Turn it off as in previous or it does not matter anymore?
How do we go about transferring our stuff from iPhone to Samsung? Cause I’ve heard that app struggles to transfer messages I’m not trying to lose those
When setting up the s25 it will ask if you are transferring from an android or Iphone then give you instructions accordingly
The app does say which things it can't transfer, like WhatsApp etc. But idk about ios sms
It would only let me get 30 days of messages coming from ios
@@powerboost5063 in android you can select all messages so something isn't right on its for sure
I had no issues

Go buy a oneplus 13. Samsung doesn't deserve anything considering the severe lack of hardware innovation since the S20 Ultra

how do you put the edge panel on s25 ultra, wide and showing 2 columns, i am from dominican republic
Add 4 apps or more to your edge panel
It seems like the Navstar update is already out on some markets since it doesn't say unplugged with my s25 ultra. You can probably sideload it if you can find the apk, but personally I would wait for the update.
Doesn't "keep screen on while viewing" use more battery by constantly running the camera?

You might want to do a comparison on the S24 ultra vs S25 Ultra. I got word that on the s25 ultra is grainy

You wouldn't do different talking about literally the same phones with less and less features but for software updates every single year.
Change it to S24 ultlra. Simple
Nope.
you can remove the camera rings on the s25 ultra it's just glued and weak. It makes the phone look more expensive
What does someone hacking at a phone with a knife have to do with settings to change when you get the phone?
Why would you even think of removing the camera lens? Slap a case and it will look horrible.
The problem is less about easily pryable rings but more about the how cheap it feels. They are tacked on, look cheap and they leave a small gap where it will collect dust and won't be easy to clean. They add little value to the design and that cost could have gone towards something else in the phone, like the BT components of the Spen for example.
