    It's been 3 months since I literally LOCKED AWAY my iPhone and switched to the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and things have not been what I expected! In this video I share my thoughts on 3 months of real use with the S24 Ultra, and the ups and downs of switching from iPhone to this leading flagship Android from Samsung. I run through some frustrating and great things about the S24 Ultra, including the setup, camera, battery life, bugs, durability, WiFi speeds, display, and loads more!

    • @JeramieReeves

      Is the best ecosystem to me. I use a Windows PC at work and it works seamlessly with my phone, at home I have a Samsung fridge washer and dryer, TV and even a smart vacuum. I currently use the Galaxy watch 6 classic and the Galaxy buds pro 2 As of right now I don't own a Samsung tablet but I really don't feel the need for one. But everything I use works just fine in my daily life style

      I haven't experienced the iPhone ecosystem. However, i've got buch of friends using it, so i have something to compare the samsung ecosystem with. And this is an incredible ecosystem ! The synergy between the phone, the watch 6 classic, the tablet, and even windows works flawlessly. The only complaint i have is that samsung didn't make a dedicated monitor to fully exploit dex. Like, it would be great to have a sort of laptop, but without any cpu or gpu, to have a sort of computer of which the price could be way lower than the galaxy book. Maybe they will be doing it in the future 🤞

    As far as the NFC goes, I believe the NFC transmitter on a Samsung phone is in the middle as opposed to the iPhone where its on the top of the phone. In the video, it looks like you keep trying to tap the top of the phone instead of the middle of the phone. I have a S23 Ultra and it works perfectly every time I use it.

    • @peterparker2068

    I want to say I've had absolutely no issues with NFC or Google pay, I did notice you hold your phone in a weird way, as if the signal came from the top of your phone, the way NFC works you need the phone and the reader to be parallel to each other. I always aim for the reader as if it was a wireless charger and I was about to charge my phone and I've had no issues this way. The few times I've had to try twice it was because I failed to do this but I quickly got the hang of it.

    The ability to swipe down anywhere on the home screen to get the notification panel is part of the Samsung UI as well. Your notification sound issue is a little bit confusing you like the idea of being able to set up different ones for different notifications, but you don't have time to set it up??? Also, no matter how far any settings is hide in the settings, you can just search it, and it is there immediately. Also try Swiftkey keyboard as well. And don't forget to change that shat Samsung phone dialer for something much better. Some real T9 search capable one ;)

    Considering the same switch-does Ultra, meaning some core android feature or Samsungs one ui feature, offer Hide My Email functionality? I do use that to further secure that my email is not used in many less significant places like various newsletters and such.
    Is there some easy way to do that in Ultra? Like when opening new web accounts or subscribing to newsletters to use some randomly generated alias which is then linked to main email and some place where you can manage that (delete alias, create new one)?
    Hide my Email works great in iOS since it does everything for the user, one just clicks hide my email and the email address is automatically generated, linked to main one and used in login field. Any thoughts on that?

    Hi Pete. One thing that makes me hesitant is Apple Pay; specifically being able to send money via text to then have the recipient (aka my kids) be able to immediately use the funds via tap to pay. Any recommendations? Thank you sir.

    Be careful switching your photo library to Google photos. If you don’t pay then your photos will be compressed. My brother is an artist and he lost a tonne of his old work because he switched from iCloud to Google photos and everything got compressed.

    Hi Mister, I've been hearing a lot that the screen on the S24 Ultra is very grainy- specifically when it's on low brightness in a dark room. I'm very worried that if I purchase one, it will have that issue and Samsung aren't admitting to the quality issue. Since you have two units, would you share your experience?
    Feel free to Google the issue to see example images and test scenarios yourself. I do hope you see this and appreciate if you do respond 🙏

I don’t like the feature on the Apple where it tells you that your password has been compromised because it let me know about 2 or 3 years ago that I had a password that was compromised so I changed it on the say so of that. And I checked later that day and the Google account that I changed the password I didn’t actually need to so I was locked out of that Google account for 3 months

I have Watch Ultra, iPad, Macs, HomePods, AirPods, etc. And I use much of the software and iCloud for work and productivity. So I think my biggest issues will be finding new workflows outside of the Apple apps.

If you like to personalize your phone then yeah you will love android. Besides Samsung I've also used an Oppo phone so I guess you'll enjoy android phones no matter which brand you pick.

    I have to agree with the customer support experience from Samsung. It's not great. 1st of all I live in Brussels and there is only 1 Samsung store which is not even in Brussels anymore with only paid parking (they don't reimburse you even if they ask you to come back again to collect your new/repaired device). Then, my Flip 5 got dead pixels on the screen and battery issues around 1 month of having it and they took the phone to repair, which they told me would take 1 week, instead of just replacing it with a new one. Luckily I had my old Flip 3 around which also has some screen issues that make it almost inoperable and they wanted to charge me 300€ to repair it. I got my flip 5, immediately sold it and got a S24 Ultra with a promotional Watch 6. I am still waiting for my watch 6 to arrive as I keep going back and forth with Samsung to try and see when it will be delivered. They say I purchased the S24U outside the promotional days but it's not true and I showed them the purchase proof 2 days before the promo ended. I love all my Samsung phones (I have s22U, Flip 3, s24U) but their service is awful
