      Samsung has far more to lose with a potential battery issue (Note 7) the battery tech is cool in the one plus 13. The overall package the S25U is the one I'm going with. If cost is the number one concern go One Plus.

    I prefer the OnePlus The battery technology on this phone is way ahead of the competition right now. Because the thinner lighter battery doesn't feel like a brick in your hand.

    By far, for the value of the OnePlus 13 compared to the S25U, OnePlus is an easy choice hands down. It's hard to ignore the 6,000 mAh silicon-carbon battery, IP68/69, 80 Watts fast charging, 50 Watts wireless charging, dual-SIM tray, IR blaster, near vanilla OS, smooth OS, little to no useless bloatware, slider mute switch, DisplayMate A++, great camera, and useful AI features. Also, the charger also is included. A rare sight to see nowadays.

  • @tamwilfred
    @tamwilfred День назад +5

    A thought just popped into my head: Samsung used to be more innovative in the past because there was heavy competition, and they wanted to distinguish themselves. I’m not sure how true this is, but it seems like Samsung hasn’t been generating as much revenue as they’d hoped. I imagine a lot of their innovation and research comes with a significant price tag, so instead of risking radical design changes, they’re sticking to minor updates-similar to what Apple is doing.
    On the other hand, OnePlus is still a scrappy, smaller company trying to capture market share.
    On a side note, super-fast 100-watt charging doesn’t seem to matter much to me. I’m not sitting by my charger waiting for my phone or tablet to charge. If I’m leaving a device on the charger, I’m most likely taking a shower, shaving, or getting dressed. If 45-watt charging strikes a good balance between speed and battery health, I’d gladly accept that over super-fast charging, which might cause more battery degradation in the long run.

The only reason I’m moving off my old one plus is that my friend bought the OnePlus 13 but he realized he was too invested in IOS to give up his iPhone. So he sold it to me for $750 (16/512). I am going to give my OnePlus to my brother-in-law as it is still an amazing phone that will have an upgrade to android 15.

      Check the Bands in Your Country for the Network Company and Sim You're Using with the Specs Sheet of the Device. If It Matches and Available then X8 Pro and OnePlus 13 Have Better Placed Antennae Mobile Network Apparently Better, and WiFi Signal Boost as Well. So Not Sure in Real World What the Results will Be Because as Mentioned It Depends on Service Provider and if they're Jamming Your Network For Some Reason They Won't Disclose then You Will Get Shitty Reception Regardless the Phone Costliest or Manageable Price! Sucks that only 1TB models have SatComms feature or LowEnergy Bluetooth Comms or Some BS like that. The 256GB 512GB Variants Don't!

      It’s common with op and app optimization. Developers for Android to focus on the more popular brands I.e., pixel and Samsung devices. Unfortunate but hopefully with op release this year developers will take them more seriously. Games are another example. Graphics tend to be better on mainstream devices this is why op doesn’t throttle as much as the s25 because op isn’t pushing as intense graphics.

      1. Camera is better despite some obvious bias reviews on YT. Good pics in low light and no blurry moving objects. It's a fast snap.
      2. Battery life is very good. Better than my S24 Ultra. It also charges insanely fast😅😅.
      3. It's extremely snappy. No lag or hiccups anywhere.
      4. Display is gorgeous and gets extremely bright outdoors!
      Two things to consider however... I really enjoyed one ui 7. I was on the beta. It was very nice. Not saying Oxygen OS isnt but I think I liked one ui better.
      The only weakness this device has that I can attest to for now is the speaker quality. The speakers on my S24 Ultra were considerably better. Some have said that it may be the waterproofing for the ip69 rating. Idk. They aren't terrible but they arent great either.

      Also oxygen os 15 is mature and many people like it. One ui 7 software is amazing as well and dex is so useful.
      You have to try both phones and not be so closed minded before you speak. Look at things objectively and not just be a fan of one brand. That is why this brands think its ok to charge big amounts because people like you buy it and follow them blindly. Have a nice day.

    I am the best person to comment on this comparison. I just traded in my S23+ with a brand new 1+13, 24gb, 1tb variant. All I had to pay was 404usd, or 35k INR. The deal was crazy enough for to not huy another Samsung, as I was a sammy user for the last decade. But before this purchase, I had a good look at the s25 ultra review unit, guess what the photos looked even worse than my S23+. May be s25 ultra needs a lot optimization, but at the moment S23+ still took better pics every single time. The highlights were better controlled, the dynamic range was even better. Now coming to the 1+13, it took somewhat similar photos, but with more accurate colours than the S23+.
    So here is the climax, I regret buying the 1+13, at the cost of S23+ because it simply is not as good a multimedia device as a flagship should be. The phone speakers lack ant richness whatsoever, feels like I am listening to an old cheap momo speaker system. And then the HDR/Dolby vision content is so pathetic, there is so much noise in the dark scenes, that you wish there was no HDR. 1+13 is a great phone in all other aspects, but the multimedia experience is way behind even the S23 base model. All that Aaa aaa+certification by display mate is a gimmick. Your are never gonna get better audio or video in 1+13, if you don't go with the s25 ultra. As long as you are not a content creator, 1+13 camera system will serve you well. The phone is ultrafast. But remember, you will never feel you have a flagship device. With the S23+ I was hooked on to the streaming platforms, 1+ doesn't inspire me.

But now if I had to choose between both of the phones compared on this review it's a tough decision honestly cause even though tons and tons of consumers are crapping on Samsung for a lack luster S25 series phone(s) I still think they look amazing and performance is pretty sick . But for me I like to think outside the box and try new things and One Plus does just that and puts out ground breaking phones just as how LG use to as well. But I like the monthly updated security patches not by monthly. So I don't know brother but thanks for the comparison Adam great video we'll see YOU on the next one.
