[SAMSUNG GALAXY S24 ULTRA REVIEW]
Yes, the bezels are slimmer. Yes, the screen is flat. And yes: the Pen … still has an S in front of it. But if you’re looking for excitement in smartphones (at least those without a hinge), software is where it’s at these days - and that’s why Samsung has chosen to pitch its newest, most-expensive bar-type Galaxy … as an “AI Phone.”
Yeah, the buzzword I managed to mostly avoid at this year’s CES in Las Vegas finally caught up with me at Samsung’s Unpacked event in San Jose - and here’s the thing: AI does actually make it easier to get excited about this year’s Galaxy Ultra. The only question is … for how long.

Good job. Not a 10 minute video, with 8 minutes about the cameras!
No punches pulled, honest, Frank and succinct 10/10
Except for the sponsor spot.....
Mr. Mobile's reviews are so much more interesting and original than other youtubers
i know
I had a whole 1 hr conversation about this with my brother. They don't make em like Mr Mobile anymore.
I'm here for the storytelling, tbh. Phones make for a nice backdrop.
Lol…I was about to write the same comment but noticed it was (understandably) already the top comment….great review MrMobile
Miles above MKBHD for sure.
It blows me away that I’ve been watching Michael since I was what maybe 10 .. when he was on pocketnow , and even then he was my favorite reviewer , once he left I never watched that channel again , I’m 24 now and here I am , still tuning in to see what he thinks , stay who you are man your takes , the way you narrate , you’re one of a kind
I've been watching him since I was 11, I'm 25 with two kids, and I still watch Michael do his thing on the regular. He needs to start a podcast foreal. Idd listen to it.
Started watching him when I was 14. Just turned 25 last week and he's STILLL the only youtuber I trust when it comes to reviews.... (NGL I actually cried a bit when he left pocketnow in 2016)
I love how they tried to hire a replacement with a similar voice 😂
To quote Flossy Carter... "Put the fucking charger in the box"
Yes fucking ridiculous a 1300 dollar phone with no charger
No thanks, i already have tons and would rather take a few bucks shaved off from the price, which i am sure many would as well.
What those asking for a charger back in packaging fail to realize is that they will have to pay for it also.
Fr though, these companies can't tell me that they care about the environment while having me buy more chargers for my phone which uses up more boxes.
except a 25w charger isnt that much money and smartphones cost more year after year. @@kisong1960
Don't quote that sellout.
I don't know why but this phone just looks gorgeous to me. Like an unequivocal metal rectangle. I love the titanium color and perfect bezels.
I love how it looks but I expect it to shred jeans pockets like nothing else. 😆
same not a fan of the curved edges on iPhones and non-ultra or non-note samsung phones
Looks the same as my S22 ultra basically
It has been alluring since the S22 Ultra. Makes me want to ditch the pixel 7 pro.
Yes i too loving flat❤
AI phone until the subscription fee kicks in 2026 😂
Not a big problem for people paying 1300$. They can afford 5 to 10$ month
Wait till apple also does this
@AliArghavan that's a big misconception. Not everyone is just dropping full retail on the phone. Many are getting trade in deal or are financing using a carrier. My Z Fold 4 for example is financed even after a 1000 off deal. And I'd probably not subscribe just for ai features.
Honestly it's a great way to go. Lets people keep the garbage off their devices by saving money 😂
At that point, I guess they'll have figured out how to make it work on the phone alone.
I always go for the ultra or pro phone in a lineup, but after spending quality time with the beastly 24 Ultra at Best Buy, I was ironically more impressed with the 24+. That phone felt incredibly refined with round corners as opposed to the jagged edges of the ultra. Also it was significantly lighter. I think the 24+ would be a better buy that I would consider if I wasn't happy with my Pixel 8 Pro.
This is a fantastic review. Honest, biting criticism is needed when phone prices go absurd.
Phone pricing has always been absurd
Yeah and for the price, AI should remain free. Now that's really going to jerk my chain. What's next, a $25.00 fee a month just for having 😅phone.
Thank you for the honest review! You've always been one of the few phone reviewers that isn't a typical "tech bro" that just moves onto the new hot topic and has a complete disconnect from the real world
He literally says that them charging a subscription for ai features is a good thing. Total hack.
@@trigniteGood thing IF it's Samsung that developed it. Learn to listen to full sentences dude.
@@FalconWindblader I heard what he said. Thinking a subscription fee for this is good is stupid, even if Samsung maintained it.
@trignite for anything on device no, but servers and server maintenance exists for cloud ai and that is expensive.
@@jesusherrera8705 Billion dollar company, and a $1400usd phone....
Glad I wasn't the only one underwhelmed by this year's flagship. I'll wait to see what 'unfolds' with the Z Fold6.
I've had the Fold 3, 4 and now 5. The Fold 6 needs to be less iterative or the 5 is the last I'll have.
@@EximiusNovo I agree
Just coming from the MKBHD's review...he's praising the phone
You're probably is the only one 😂😂 stop hating 😂😂
@@polofunkhe didn't say he hate the phone. He's just not impressed.
That building translator got me sold... most definitely getting that upgrade.
Let the feature get flushed out as that is one of the features that will be coming to others phones as noted...
Amazing review. I really love the way you record and edit videos which is clearly visible that it's straight out from your heart. Its really different in the best way than other videos on tech, that's the only reason I never get bored even if I have to watch back to back on your channel. Please continue making such wonderful videos. ❤
Always a pleasure to watch your reviews and as usual, I don't need to watch any other videos for S24 ultra. Thanks!
I just happened to stumble on to your channel and I am shocked. it's is truly amazing. I really appreciate how you have created such a different approach to real life experience of using the phone in your review. Thank you for your hard work. I truly enjoyed the video and I am going to subscribe based on this one video. Truly amazing work!!!
It’s funny, I’ve been going on a tear watching Michael’s videos today after not really watching since probably last May and we get another upload today... Anyways, love the reviews. Keep it up!
The pre-sponsor callout was hilarious 😂😂
I played with the phones at the Vodafone store today and the circle search thing is actually wild, I was able to find multiple places to buy that green chair on the eBay home page and the search results were basically instant. But on its own it's not a reason to dump my Fold for one, and I feel like even when that software set comes to the Fold 6 that won't be a good enough reason alone to upgrade to that. But definitely neat for people jumping from older devices, I feel like the phone is basically as refined as it will ever be at this point without drastically reinventing it
Thanks Michael for a solid review in a sea that look more like pid ads than reviews. Your take and honesty I really appreciated
Been waiting for this review. Thank you, sir! Starting it up right now.
Your reviews are the best, hands down. I usually skip most phone reviews, but yours? I'm always hyped to watch them. It's like diving into a really good book.
This is the best phone on the market and will be the best phone of the year. If price is an issue then this market isnt for you plain and simple. This is a flagship phone with some of the best technology and hardware you get what you pay for.
Your reviews are refreshing and fun. Love them!!
Always a different take on reviews and with a lot of different elements! Loved it
Watching on my s24 ultra, just got it today. Love it sm already ! Replacing my iPhones gaming phones foldables etc. that I've owned. So far no complaints, they perfected this imo 👊
Excellent review, you've given me confidence to not worry about the cameras, and boy those software features are pretty nice too.
You're very good at reviewing. the way you review is so unique it's like a PBS show it's great. So refreshing compared to others.
Another great review and loving that awesome Speedmaster.
I'm shocked you didn't mentioned that now S24 Ultra is capable to zoom and shoot in 4K 60fps video on all the lens without switching.
He didn't mentioned A LOT of the new features. Comparing this with other reviews like the one from MKBHD, it feels as if Michael is burnt out and really didn't want to make this one.
@@hey_mariotrue maybe that's why he has a therapist? Just saying....
@@hey_marioI think he generally hate Samsung. 😅
@@hey_mario can't blame him. On the surface, this is the same phone for the third year in a row, for better or worse. Samsung is growing stale imo.
It was not thorough. He sounds bored and annoyed in it. The phone has so many features though. He focused on the negatives. Maybe he's going through something.
That was a helluva plot twist in the end, what with the subscription requirement for AI features, and their proliferation across other smartphones. Very much is the same old story with Samsung; when it comes to hardware they hold their own but their software always leaves more to be desired.
Love your videos Michael Fischer. I prefer watching review videos from you over other RUclipsrs
I have to say I love your videos and reviews MrMobile, you Mrwhostheboss, Flossy Carter Mkbhd and Max tech are my favorite youtubers for reviews on tech thanks for all your hard work
This is the first year I'm not trading in the previous Galaxy for the new one in like 4 years. Not enough hardware upgrades for me. Google translate already helps with conversations. My cameras are awesome. I'll wait for the S25 Ultra
Not gonna lie you had us in the first half.
I was totally waiting for the Better Help spot.
I was waiting for your Samsung S24 Review ❤
Great coverage thanks
The best tech reviews out there, with real life examples and use cases. Thank you, sir!!!
Too grumpy.
I just noticed that in my S22 Ultra gallery, I can open a picture, click on an object in that picture, then click the "eye icon" in the top right & it does basically the same as "Circle to Search"
Thank you for your honesty sir.
Great review as always!
I don't know why but even though I regularly watch your videos, this video wasn't pushed by the RUclips algorithm to my home feed or my notification feed.
Michael, I'm watching your review on my s24 ultra that just received today! This is the first thing I've watched on the device and I'm glad it's your real talk about Sammy's new phone
Same s24 Ultra is killing the game💯
love the fact that we all seem to purchase a device, just to watch more about it even if we did the research beforehand xD
Great review. I agree with your conclusion. I see no reason to give up my pixel 8 pro any time soon.
Mannnnn how I longed for this video.....🎉 great work captain 2x phones
Great Video. Im getting a Samsung S24 series phone this year either for my birthday or for Christmas
I think the AI model being locked behind a paywall after 2025 should be the biggest talking point of this phone
The trouble is, Michael isn't really impressed with any phone unless it's a foldable or flip. He's always a great watch though, I'll always be a Fisher fan.
thats just most people now, phone innovations in the no flip space are few and far between
@@ShaiyanHossain Flips and Folds are still very niche. People might be interested in them, but thry haven't taken off with sales with 'the general public yet because they're just too expensive.
yeah because they'res still experimental which translates down into a higher cost. that being said manufacturers other than Samsung are making lower priced (still not "cheap" though) foldable now, but most wont' make it to the US beyond the Motorola razr. There are rumours of a cheaper fold 6 version as well but that remains to be seen @@Gary0557
Love this channel ! Great content and great entertainer
Always the best Phone reviews from Michael.
I just received my Ultra 512GB in blue and I'm loving it so far. I'm upgrading from the s21 Ultra, which I've had for about 3 years ago. I'm enjoying the bump in power and the screen is noticeably better.
How’s your display? I’m seeing a lot of people who have received their phones that it appears washed out or less vibrant than previous iterations.
@@dereksalter8671 my screen is amazing and there's nothing washed out about it. Where did you hear about the screen issues?
I don't see the point of upgrading my S21U yet. Everything works as intended, power is plenty enough, battery is ok for the day!
@@TheSkyline35 that's great! Yeah, if you're cool with the S21 still, no need to upgrade.
@@dereksalter8671mine screen from s24u had that at first to but the screen settings were standing comfort for eye modus. I changed that to normal setting and now its great.
Thank you for the review. And yes my feelings are the same about S24 Ultra. My wife has an S23 Ultra. We don't see much of a difference. She actually loves her zoom capability. She was sad to find out that now it's just a 5x.
Idk why they didn't just upgrade the 3x lens. There's more room to make that sensor bigger and higher resolution anyway so cropping to 5x or 6x for better mid range zoom would've worked well without sacrificing the 10x lens.
@@Bulmas_Panties I have a Note 20 Ultra still, and tbh, even at 50x, it's damn near impossible to keep it steady enough to use. Most people don't carry tripods, so that was probably a factor in their decision. 5x just seems to be the sweet spot unless they start making thicker phones (which I'm fine with, can fit bigger batteries and cameras).
Cropping is OK, BUT ... What close to nobody seems to talk about is that a quad Bayer array will never demosaic as well as a regular one. The new periscope's advantage is actually its low-light performance.
My biggest wish is actually something that will never happen (OK, Sony did it, but it was a series of pocket cameras). A super thicc phone with a single periscope that covers a 15-120 mm (FF equivalent) mm range. 80 MP. No quad Bayer. An optional 20 MP crop to stretch those 120 mm to 240 mm. Uncompressed PCM audio. And that's it.
Excellent video n honest review. Pls keep it up mate.
Great review as always.
Great review as always. Only thing though - and this is not a criticism of just this review - but most that I have seen - the consensus is that this is a solid. dependable top notch smart phone that does all the things it should do really really well. BUT the criticism universally is that it is "BORING" and not much different to its predecessor.
Well imho, smart phones are now like refrigerators - essential tools in our daily lives. I for one do NOT want "excitement" in my device. I want dependability, durability, functionality and a long usage period to offset that expensive initial cost.
Unlike reviewers and well healed "enthusiasts" I keep my phones right up until the software updates stop. Which in my case is the Note 10+ which is now 4.5 years old and is still serving me extremely well.
If the S24U is anything like the Note in the areas of dependability, durability and functionality then the 7 years of usage that I anticipate will provide the best ROI of most phones.
There is no other Android phone that offers this kind of package. So yeah, more of the same is what myself and a lot of others really want.
The 7 years' worth of updates is already worth it, IMHO
I normally upgrade as i get bored.
Using an s22 ultra, i didnt see anything different in the s23 ultra, and the s24 ultra is giving me the same vibes. The flat screen is nice. But, id much rather an sd card slot, head phone jack or both over AI. Especially if it becomes subscription based.
a headphone jack? you can get quality bluetooth earbuds for dirt cheap. If you're spending 1300+ on a phone, you're not using some bullshit 10 dollar wired earbuds.
@DABK2024 no, but you could be using some $2k headphones?
Usb c sound just as good as 3.5mm.
I've owned S105G 3.5mm, note20ultra and now s22ultra, and the AKG usbc headphones sound very good.
@@TheKwod ah, my bad.
Didn't realise you could use usb c to charge and listen at the same time.
Honestly, their is a big jump in performance from the S22U and the S23U. I couldn't stand the heat, and battery performance of the 8 gen 1. Efficiency is the name of the game. Significantly cooler while gaming, smoother, and much longer battery life. Sure, it was a refinement, but I feel like the S24U is going to be a similar refinement, although underwhelmed as well. Im still getting it, the upgrades to the display and more natural color reproduction and battery life is enough for me to upgrade. That trade in deal is really nice too, getting the watch 6 classic for $130, that I can use towards the next watch 7.
It also looks like the 5X from S24U is definetly getting better shots than the 10x optical. Still, I'm hoping samsung can keep pushing forward, I want 20x optical with ai.
Awesome as always.
switch from the s23 ultra(used for 7 months) to the s24 ultra, my initial thought was well done you have bought the same phone twice, but 24 hours in, I'm loving it, the A.i stuff is great but some stuff the Pixel 8 pro does better, I love the flat screen makes using the S-pen to select an item easier, the colour science of the camera is better, and the signal strength is one to two bars better and oh it smooth and very responsive and even better battery than the s23 ultra, It cost me around 380 pounds to swap and I dont regret it.
No brainer
It’s such a good phone ❤
Looolll, the s23 ultra is literally one software update away from being the same phone.
You wasted your money 😂
yearly phone updates are stupid. the s23 is still good enough to use for most people until 2027 or whenever the security updates stop@@samo6083
Habia una epoca en la que Michael reseñaba todo tipo de celulares. Alta, media y baja gama. Hoy, solo le importa los telefonos mas caros para reseñar, algunos raros y hacer videos retro. Sus analisis siguen siendo buenos, pero porque no hacer otros videos. Creo que muchos de aqui nos gustaria ver analisis de gamas medias o altas de entrada. Un galaxy a54 o s24.
AS ALWAYS, GREAT REVIEW!!!👍👌👋♥️
When I received the video upload notification I said to myself here we go another S24 Ultra video coverage so I was kinda reluctant to watch it but I was sure that Mr Mobile won't produce a video with the same take and perception as "everyone else". I wasn't disappointed. :)
my girlfriend has the S23 Ultra and I honestly do think that the change from a 10x to a 5x is a good one. I was trying to get some faraway shots with her phone and 10x is just really annoying to fiddle with a 3x can be not enough. Having 10 and 5 would be nice for a kitchen sink approach but I think 5 is better.
I agree. The periscope camera is the single biggest camera in the phone, and adding an extra one feels like it would be a bad tradeoff.
I love the 10x. Hate to see it go 😞
I was also split between S23U/S24U but ibwent for the latter in the end becausr its capable of videoing 4K at 120p. This enables me to upscale my video's quality in the future
Jeez... I was wondering why I haven't seen your review... I hadn't activated the bell 😅
Best review so far! Doesn't feel like marketing like other reviewers
Honest review. I'm upgrading from a Note 20 and I have to say, the difference is immense.
In what ways?
I am as well, got a killer upgrade deal for pre-order as well. I'll come back to this comment once mine actually arrives
Can't wait to get mine
Mine is arriving in a few days. Along with my Tab S9 Ultra 1TB.
Got my S24 Ultra and our S24 Pluses yesterday (1/26). Great phones so far.
Very honest review!
Although the new S24U has been improved in some aspects, as expected in a new project, I don't see any significant changes in the final result, even with the implementations of Artificial Intelligence. Therefore, it is not worth upgrading.
I had to grab that 512g S24 Ultra, which arrives tomorrow here in SE Texas 🤟
My Carrier offered me $800 for my S22 Ultra but I'm keeping my wired earbuds, lol
I've been waiting on that Flat Display for years!
I love Xfinity Mobile, never had an issue & I have 3 phones at $30ea truly unlimited..
Just noticed I've been holding my breath even after watching the reviews from Marquez Brownlee and Mr whosetheboss... your reviews are like therapy sometimes... 😊 (The Complete Package from Mr mobile... Michael Fisher.)
Oh man, I’d LOVE to have transcripts of my therapy sessions. Sometimes I forget the momentous breakthroughs!! 😅 Interesting, interesting. I dunno… maybe I’ll find my way back to Android, someday. Great review, as always, Mr. Mobile! 👏👏🙌
It's so wild that the people of America still suffer from limited internet and Tello is "a big deal" for them. Europe has unlimited data for around 15€/month nearly everywhere with free roaming access getting more commonplace in the EU.
15-16€/kk taitaa saada Suomessa rajattoman datan, mutta noi on jotain 5-10 Mbit/s mopoliittymiä, ja silloinkin maksat erikseen puheluista ja viesteistä. Rajaton data+puhelut kunnon nopeuksilla halvimmat päälle 20€/kk.
Not in Germany tho... 😅
Ummm Tello isn't a "big deal" here. lol
I agree with your closing statement that this years 24 Ultra is too expensive for what it offers. Coming from a Galaxy S22+, pre-launch I was targeting the S24 Ultra this time around. However, the $100 price increase really threw me off. Not to mention, the S24+ got huge upgrades (1440p LTPO display, 4900mah battery, 12gb RAM, 1.6x larger vapor chamber) and is basically a S24U but without the boxy design, no spen, and worse cameras for $300 less. And since this S24+ will be my secondary phone, I cant see the reason to fork over $300 just for the boxy design and spen (although I really would like to have those). Maybe when the S26 Ultra comes out ill see if I jump to the Ultra then.
You're better off getting the 23 ultra for cheaper. And if you already have one then I suggest you stick with it
@@GH0STST4RSCR34M the only device I WOULD consider an upgrade is the 24Plus since Samsung didn't shit out this year like they have before...it's actually worth it now...but yeah aside from that it saint worth it.
the cameras are always a big reason why many upgrade, so if that's not as important to you, $300 less is what you should do
Best refreshing reviews across all big name RUclipsrs
I must say as always great and honest review
While I love my Pixel 8 Pro, the boxy sharp edges of the Ultra series is a design I will always be drawn to.
It certainly stands out. I've got the S23 Ultra and I still take it out of the case occasionally just to admire it.
Im waiting for my S24 ultra, and im currently using the S23 ultra caseless and it’s been a joy to use.
@@troyb6125 haha since mine is my main device and cost me a fortune, admiring it is about the extent to which I'm comfortable using it without a case on. I honestly prefer actual use with a case as I find the phone itself very slippery, especially during winter when my hands are dry. The glass is like ice.
It's about as practical as square wheels.
yeah, the conversational translation that you did with that spanish speaker wasn't that good either to be honest
Haha what do you mean? It was perfect translation
@@aiming2shootI’m a fluent speaker and it wasn’t perfect lol
I always worry when I am speaking to a client and it mis-translates; it will say something rude or something you should never say. I would not trust this for anything important. There are hundreds of translate apps that are mature and less of a risk and I would definitely use one of those over a new feature on the S24U.
Michael on point with some great quips and excellent points during this review. Icing on the cake though was the Lionel Richie reference... "Oh what a feeling...". It is Michael's world... We just live in it.
What a great review. Keep telling it as it is 👍.
The BetterHelp fakeout was top notch 😂 👌🏾
I'm so happy the S24 Ultra released with AI as its main feature, now I can buy the S23 Ultra used for half the price :)
oneplus 12 is way better than s23u if u dont need the spen
@@user-li6ns2lk3z I agree that it's good but I'm very used to samsung's software, can find the S23 Ultra used for 200-300 less here in Italy and you're right, I do need the s-pen :V
😂😂😂
Not at the moment, unless you like scratches and lots of visible wear on your year old phone.
Used ones in decent shape are still $900 give or take. Maybe later this year?
@@BWM135 I can find used "like new" ones for 700 no problem here in Italy, my "issue" right now is that my Note 20 Ultra is still going perfectly so I really don't need to change at all xV
Hey MrFisher. Great review as always..the underwhelming part I don't agree with, this al depends on where you're coming from. I do get though that an upgrade from a s23 ultra most likely doesn't make sense. Unless you're looking for a metal slab like myself. Loving my s24 ultra and surely a lot of fellow Samsung Knights will agree, hopefully slideables/rollables are going to surface on short term since the folding has been going on for 5-6 years now and using all Samsung Z Folds and a z flip 5 I decided to move to my galaxy note 24. "Note" does sound better then "S" right? Till the next one!
Great content as usual Michael. I particularly enjoyed the conversation with that lady using the translation features.
I have zero interest in this phone, but as usual I thoroughly enjoyed watching another superbly polished video on tech from my top tech reviewer on the whole of the internet.
Good job, sir!
I ordered the OnePlus 12 for several reasons, but Samsung knocked it out of the park this year with the Ultra. Looks like an awesome phone!
Are you worried about the one plus pinging back to China at all? I’ve read the Chinese versions do but unsure of the global version.
@@30kkso samsung phones don't "ping" back to Korea? 😂😂
@@nero_redqueen I’m not talking about the Samsung phone at all, I’m just curious about the oneplus. Up your reading comprehension little guy.
@@30kk This is a cop out answer, but I am under no delusions about privacy. None of us have any anymore. However you can have more control over your data if you get a Pixel and run Graphene OS and De-Google it if thats a concern.
The US government spies on us without warrants, businesses steal and sell our data, even your ISP and cell carrier sell your data to the highest bidder and we are largely powerless without people in government that advocate for our rights like the do in the EU.
But if my OnePlus phones home, I would be disappointed in the company, but I also wouldnt lose any sleep over a low social credit score halfway around the world.
@@marcochavanne I hear you on the privacy these days. I just try to stay clear of really unideal ones. I really like everything that oneplus has to offer, just not a fan of CCP.
Was not expecting to see the Mystery Spot in a Michael Fisher review! I visited in 2000 from the UK!
Mr. Mobile is one of my go to tech reviewers. It's always informative and entertaining.
This is my view on this. I love and use the S pen. I hate curved screens. I tried the Z fold 5 and the phone. It is big and when typing on a phone on the go, you need it to be manageable in one hand! On the fold you are only allowed to type on the inner screen which negates the purpose of jotting a quick note for me.
I have used iphones for 6 years because of curved note screens 😢.
This is for me was a no trainer to go back to the note/ultra now.
I am happy with my purchase. AI or not, this is the perfect phone for me 🎉
Yup I was a fold 4 user..I didn't use the stylus because it's just the inner screen. This is perfect. I'm sure in the future they'll fix that.
Also my fold 4 screen became damaged a year in. I don't want to worry about that anymore.
I appreciate you keeping it simple and cool in your videos while others are trying too hard to entertain the tiktok generation.
great review!
Cracked up at "we is condemning food things and supplies" Never change!! Stellar review, as always.
Just got mine in titanium green. I totally agree with what you had to say. I hope they really optimize things this year with AI and eventually use their own models.
Watching from my S21 Ultra :) Thinking whether to upgrade or wait for the S25.
Don't... Not worth it
My S21 Ultra still has great battery life. I just wish the camera took photos like my Pixel 2 XL did. The colors and dynamic range just do strange things sometimes. I took a photo of a cigar sitting on my blue bed and it looks like vomit no matter what combo of HDR and scene optimization I turn on and off.
@HAFBeast91 brother pixel 2 cameras are garbage as freak dont even bother comparing pixels cameras to iphones and samsung cameras 😂
Great review
This wasn't just an S24 Ultra, review... This was an Ultra Review of the Galaxy S24 Ultra, with a bit of story telling,.. As always, one of the best in the business..
Watching from my S24 Ultra!!!
Note 9 here
@@DavidNgo86the last and the best true flagship.
Such an honest review on the phone. I know a lot will say otherwise as they are into the new model and features, but for practical users/consumers, the newer model is not that impressive. They are updates rather than upgrades which is good but not worth it.
And with this, I can't wait for the S25 series.
I don't disagree with anything presented here, but I am still delighted with my upgrade from an S21 Ultra with a cracked screen. And those upgrade incentives you mentioned even apply to my damaged trade-in.
Excellent review mrmobile i had a blast of a time watching this review owning my s24 ultra right now and so far this phone is the best phone i ever had also my first ever flagship phone seeing your perspective of using the phone made me feel happy that im using mines absolute phone of the year right here samsung is winning big games this year
What's funny, shadows and reflections eraser present even on my S10e (you might need to unlock it via Labs) and I used them quite a bit, works very well. They just rebranded it as "AI", even if it got improved.
What I'd rather pay a subscription for is new Android updates to keep phones relevant as long as possible. Older flagships are way more powerful than newer budget/mid-tier phones that get newer Android versions. Plus, actually would help an environment.
I love your final impressions about this phone. TM Roh has had a rather conservative regime, scared of experimenting with new ideas which might turn out to shape the mobile landscape just like DJ Koh did with large screens and foldables
