I'm usually very weary of taking information given to me by youtubers simply bc as over time they need to strike that "balance" in order to not scare off the brands that supply almost all their products to review, so their reviews become muddled with a lot of tiptoeing around certain topics or completely steering away from pointing out things that may may shine a negative light on a product. And with RUclipsrs that are on a small channel a lot of misinformation is usually given because of their lack of research, which in turns steers me away from them. But you, i can say so far out of the few videos that i have watched from you I have been nothing but impressed. Accurate information, easily viewable side-by-side examples, straight to the point, well articulated, and it seems like you understand your tech. So I have been impressed a lot with your content so far. Hopefully your content stays as honest as it is portrayed as ur channel and your success grows. If I could suggest future ideas or points for future videos I would like for you to exstensively cover the Samsung ecosystem as much as other tend to do with Apple's ecosystem. Not the basic stuff that most do, but more so things I rarely see in most videos such as Samsung Internet(ad blocking features built in, memory features, its auto log in performance and limitations), Samsung Dex and its capabilities when compared to a regular computer, not so much in terms of speed but function( for example google docs on Dex when compared to how it appears and functions on a computer), Android Auto, and such. Also I would really like to see more videos on future things consumers would like to have or like a "where to improve in the future" theory videos bc there is not alot out there. But any way keep up the good work and continue to grow. Also what you think the big redesign will try and do since they hired that one guy on at Samsung?
No they didn't. The pics look far more AI focussed and blurred. It's a step backwards and Samsungs arrogance is disappointing now that other brands have leaped them.
Samsung 👌nice We are going in to purchase ✌️ phones 📱 we sat and waited to be sure I'm sure there be positive updates ongoing. As not a cheap phone but it's worth getting it all good 👍
@@mrbigtymer78wait for six months to fix the broken exposure. If they don't fix it by then, they will sell it as a feature on the S25 Ultra, like they did by tweaking the noise on pictures on the S24 Ultra, while they left S23 Ultra users behind, although the camera hardware is identical on both phones.
Once you slide the vivdiness slider all the way up. Then turn back on adaptive color tone. It'll still be more vivid then before with better color accuracy.
9:30 Point 8 regarding "the expression of movement" seems like it may have finally fixed the issue. Up till now, when taking pictures of my kids, my S24U has would usually select shutter speed of 1/33s, which obviously resulted in a blurry shots. The few images I have taken since the update have used 1/100s, which although still a bit slow, is a lot better than before. This higher shutter speed may also explain why the building outside in the example in the video wasn't so overexposed.
@MrParis215 me too, traded in 2 s22 ultras for 2 s24 ultras and samsung gave me $1300(650 each) basically bogo free. Battery life alone to me was worth it, but phone is fast.
And tell me, what do you think about photos in higher resolutions? Let's take a photo at 50 megapixels, no matter whether normal or 5X zoom. A few seconds after taking the photo, a smoky filter overlaps the photo, making the photo look tragic, it looks completely different from what we saw on the smartphone screen. It's similar with 200mpix photos, photos in higher resolutions are useless. in S23 Ultra at 108mpix I took beautiful, razor-sharp photos and they looked exactly as we saw them on the screen. I will add that this happens even if we turn off photo processing. hopeless, they haven't improved anything on this topic. Are you aware of this?, no one talks about it anywhere, and it occurs in every single copy. The S24 Ultra has a lot of problems, much more than the S23 Ultra. Apparently, Samsung explains nonsense that photos in higher resolutions are processed differently, and that it is supposed to be that way. But how can this be so? after all, these photos are useless, since they look completely different from the image seen on the smartphone screen, in this case there is no point in using them at all. We pay for a premium smartphone and we have to use only 12 megapixels for normal photos? It's embarrassing how you can publicize this matter. Samsung tried to convince us when it came to the colors that it was supposed to be like that, but they have already improved it. Now it's time for higher resolutions, something is definitely wrong with it, somehow the 108mpix in the S23 Ultra took razor-sharp photos and there was no talk of processing anything else.
I agree mine wouldn't charge last night some people are reporting My joke is always we are getting the devices designed by the work from home teams. The iPhone 13 pro Max and the Galaxy s23 ultra were near perfect devices
Exactly. That's the biggest issue that still persist even after update. There was a lot of roar arround the weak vividness and other minor subjects, but this one which makes 50/200 MP photos unusable has been ignored. I hope, they're aware about that and it gonna be solved in next update.
im using 50 and 200 on the otherhand because while 12mp is ok. when zooming in on the photos took by 12mp, i can see lots of grains unless there is super good lighting. unlike 50 and 200 where you can take smooth pictures and no grains when zooming on the photos took. but the post processing kills it. there are times when it it acceptable. but i would prefer to have the picture exactly what is shown in my viewfinder. they shouls have an option to turn this off. so im stuck between 12mp and grainy photos when zooming or clear 50 and 200mp large file photos but unrealistic overprocessed filter. someone pls make a video out of this and tag samsung
I hope to see improvementd on color banding as well. Right now the phone cant display any gradients smoothly, from the call screen to weather app, and apps like RUclips music (YTM shows gradients behind the song covers) every gradient is displayed pretty badly, as if the screen is color limited.
I actually just kept Natural on because I kinda got used to and prefer the colours of natural now 😂 Guess the phone forced to train me to get used to it and now all my Samsungs are on Natural lol
From my research online a few weeks ago about it, the grain is more than likely an issue with the display itself (because my phone is also grainy in dark, dimly lit colours), the issue is apparently because of something called 'Mura'. The only reason it isn't noticed is because the company that makes the phone with the Oled Panel has quality assurance tests applied after the Oled screen is produced, to, what they call 'de-murafy', removing the grain to such an extent that is becomes imperceptible. The initial batch of Samsung s24 Ultra mostly had this issue, but not all of them. I'd heard online that s24 Ultras made in certain countries were more likely to have the issue. Some people returned their phones because of this & got a bew phone replacement, but the grain issue was still there. Next time you're on your settings screen, turn on dark mode, make it really, really dim & put it under your top. You should be able to see that the grain doesn't actually move, which indicates that's it's actually an issue with the display itself.
Is anyone complaining about photos are over processed in auto mode? even you turn off or tone down the "Intelligent Optimisation > Minimum/Medium" and Under the Camera Assistant > Auto HRD = Off specially when shooting 50MP or 200MP you will see or catch the phone is processing the photo and doing HRD thingy. It makes the darker area brighter but almost clipping the bright areas. This is why I shoot mostly now in Pro-Mode.... In Pixel 8 Pro you can turn off this under the Auto HRD and it will reduce the post processing and making the photo closer to the actual.
People hype the s24 ultra camera but they are not mentioning the exposure problems in s24 ultra A lot of time s23 ultra has perfect exposure while s24 ultra isn't. Also the noise are better handled in s23 ultra than s24 ultra. I hope they fixed it this update ruclips.net/video/Ibov6p1r7IM/видео.htmlsi=Z7dFUCq1zdiabvFZ
They did very well taking care of this issue. I had the same issue with my Pixel 7 Pro with the screen being very washed out, and they never fixed it, so that says something for Samsung.
To be fair to Samsung they were probably right not to have the vivid slider, but it does look better with it. The reality is that even if it looks vivid on the phone screen it will lose that vividness when printed or viewed on any other screen. Editing on a vivid screen will mean that edits to photos or video will not look the same on any other device. That being said I'll probably turn vivid right up as it looks good
coming from iPhone and considering this or zfold(heard qa is an issue), but apples lack of innovation is getting old and before iphones I used android…which is better?
cccc... To say there was no problem with graininess is not right because all S24 ultras have that problem! go in a dark room, instal some display test app and look at gray colors at minimum brightness and i guaranty you, you will find your problem.
@techwithbenefits oh I'm sorry. Are you saying that the grainy screen at minimum brightness never bothered you, or are you saying that you never had that problem because your unit doesn't have a grainy screen at minimum brightness?
As someone who is watching your video, this comparison video format has made me often wonder: " how do these images translate?" ...i mean a) i don't have the s24Ultra...i have the S23 ultra but i am watching on my secondary 1+ McLaren 7t pro 5G. b) "does viewing on a different screen come into play ?,"...just the different resolution and peculiar" nits of brightness" that may vary model n manufacturer. c) as little as i know, admittedly, i do know my personal preference is for the January phone shots. My taste on certain comparitives. Although, i do switch back and forth. I can't say as a hard rule " January" . But generally.
This 100% why there is no innovation or change between years anymore. And Apple runs scare of change as well. A few tech people will lose their minds with how cool and exciting changes are, but at the same time millions will lose their minds that anything changed (while simultaneously complaining that nothing changes)
February 👈 And you see more as you just can! And please if you can be super cool to see more colour with say food on the plate and outside nicer outlook if that cool by you and not sad days sort of thing. Thx 👍
Sirrrr I am having image shift issue in s24 ultra plz highlight that issue that from switching from 3x to 5x image shifting problem plz share some shorts shooting near objects changing lenses 3x to 5x to 10 and also video shoot
The more S24 Ultra video that I watch I feel that the S24 Ultra is like a AAA Gaming Title that was just put out to meet a release date and there will be at least 6/12 months of fixes coming.
I'd probably get this phone if I could afford it, altough if you go with a bigger zoom the images don't look so well. Or maybe Iphone 15 pro, altough I've never had Apple before.
The graininess comes from using a photo wallpaper from your older device that was transferred over to your new device. The update fixed this, but anyone that doesn't have the update will need to change their wallpaper.
@Justin-ee3im I see after your comment I did some research and what your talking about seems to be affecting certain people's devices all over their UI. I had a graininess issue with both of mine as well, but they both were fixed by switching the display to QHD+, motion smoothness to adaptive and switching my wallpaper, but my issue was noticeable only in my wallpaper and settings interface.
this update ruined both of our s24 plus and ultra. nothing is loading, some settings are back to factory. Instagram, RUclips, Facebook says "couldn't refresh". phone is much slower. having a vivid screen is the last thing you think about when using a phone
Samsung did the bare minimum with this update. The vividness slider really doesn't do anything, I compared it next to old S23 Ultra and the colours are still washed out on the S24 Ultra. Even worse though, you can't use the vividness slider if you have eye comfort shield enabled. The option simply disappears. That's either a big oversight and lack of attention to detail, or just a skill issue.
You can't ask that huge price, and claim you are selling a flagship, while you have those old sensors, and a catastrophic way of processing images and videos. Yeah, S24 Ultra is not just it's cameras, it's also its bad battery, it's slow charging compared to competitors, it's missing fast charger, the myriad of bugs which weren't solved on the S23 Ultra, but now they are even more on the S24 Ultra, it's screen with low PWM which damages the vision and the sleep of many people, that display with no Dolby Vision support, no 10 or 12 bit color space. But let me tell you what S24 Ultra really is: is a rehashed S23 Ultra with just some software updates and those Ai fancy features for which Samsung paid Google to have a few months of exclusivity, before they will be rolled on all Android 14 smartphones. S24 Ultra is a slap on the face of the S23 Ultra customers who didn't get the proper updates and fixes for the price they paid for this phone, while Samsung decided to release an S24 Ultra with some software optimisations which should have been released since summer 2023 on the S22 and the S23 Ultra to fix the mess they made. As I said, you can be as much as a fanboy as you want, in the end your channel only praises Samsung, but the truth is that Samsung flagships are overpriced garbage phones, overtaken in features, hardware, performance, design and software by many other smartphone companies who really inovate from one year to another.
Idk man, i come From Apple, used it literally since The iPhone 3G and up so i had EVERY pro iPhone ever, And i Have 1 month with the S24 Ultra, And Its Amazing, i had the iPhone 14 PM and It was Good but noticed it was just Laggy, slow at times and just super repetitive experience, so i Got the iPhone 15 Pro, because i thought mayne my 14 Pro is Just Having a mother board issue idk... So once i got the 15pro i was like wth, it feels the same as the 14P its slow laggy like its brand new wth, turns out My wifes too and my Dads too, (we all have the Pros) so i got tired and A WEEK later of getting my iPhone 15 Pro i buy the S24 Ultra, and maaan oohhh maaan Its superior in every way, its faster, the Screen is just so much better, The battery life is Soooo greaaat and The fast charging, like i dont get to see it often cause my phone doesn't die, but yesterday i binged watched a Show for hours on full brightness!! And I got home at 16% I put it to charge while i showered changed then went out to eat with my wife and noticed my phone was at 90% of battery LIKE WTHHH we got home did everything in like 30 min or less and i went from 16% to 90!!!! This Phones just Immaculate.
Watching on my iPhone 13, not a lover or hater for Android or IOS, but like a lot of customers out there I just can’t decide. Was thinking of the iPhone 14 Pro but the Samsung S24+ looks appealing also. My “fear” is that I might regret it and wanting to go back to iOS 😂 I did that before with a OnePlus phone. But, if I look at the European models of the S24 and the plus model, they are not equipped with the Snapdragon that was released in the US etc. That’s a bit of a bummer for me. Toss out experiences are welcome, greetings from the Netherlands 👍🏻
Here's the deal I really need your help with this guys cause I'm really struggling. I'm having a really difficult time with Apple right now I have all their products I have the Apple Watch Ultra which I really like probably my favorite Apple product and then I have my iPhone 15 Pro Max Win terabyte I have a MacBook Pro I have a 2018 iPad Pro Still works great but here's my issue. There's no multitasking on my phone which is killing me and my iPhone 15 Pro Max feels exactly like my iPhone 13 Pro Max, which felt like my iPhone 11 felt like my iPhone X and so many ways. I don't know if I'm going crazy, but it's really hard to buy the same phone over and over again and Siri is complete garbage and I really want company is going to lean into AI and also lean into strong features like multitasking and things that Samsung is doing and I think someone said it when they said Apple wants to sell you multiple products so if they make one product better than the other product, you might just buy one product. I feel that way about the iPhone if it were as good as the Samsung phones with multitasking in AI maybe wouldn't buy that tablets me know your thoughts I'm just getting bored with Apple and I feel like they never really innovate that much and I'm use all their default apps because I try to support the stock situation but I really find myself bored. Let me know if you can help me through this, I wonder if I should get a Samsung S24 ultra or S25 ultra down the line to feel something different. Have you guys ever felt this way here's another thing voice texting on iPhone is painful. I remember having android phones and really appreciating how accurate the voice texting was that actually actually bumps me out about Apple to. Also, how can you sell? A premium smartphone has to have such a terrible assistant. Siri literally feels like they just forgot and literally don't care anymore. Thoughts 💭 make it make sense I didn't wanna leave Apple, but I feel like apples leaving me and it's really hard to make sense of it all right now.
I'm still not convinced the 200 and 50 megapixel modes in camera are not fixed. It's strange that when you take the shot, then open the picture, it looks right at first, then after processing it looks blurry and washed out.
@donkey7921 If you're taking photo in high dynamic light environment, there's high probability that photo looks good in preview, then later it's ruined by the AI post process which can't even be disabled.
Bro in s24 ultra Camera is like a cheap phone quality But after pic has been taken it shows very nice Why this happens..... Pls tell me that is this will be fixed
I saw nothing was changed with a camera at S24 Ultra... Only display colors. Nothing at x10, x5 zoom, nothing at refresh rate (was 24-120 Hz), nothing at night mode. I've made lots of pictures... Nothing. Why we got 600+ Mb useless empty update???? I was expexted to see improvement in Expert RAW. They compressed all gradients to ugly 8 bit and they processed RAW. .. also app make fuse from 2-9 shots, but you cannot set up ISO and other parameters 😅useless. If you switch to just taking one RAW the app will over-proces it to make "better" what, why? What the point?? You will get wanished mess of pixels instead of getting RAW😢
Pro tip: Never mess with display colors; it's better to turn Vivid off. You never want to see the wrong colors. For example, if you're editing a photo, you may think the saturation is great, but if you view it on another phone, it will be undersaturated.
I agree...when editing pics and videos you want the colors to be what others see and not what your over saturated phone is... Others are not gonna have your settings..neutral as possible
@Atreusz it will look fine to you. Then you share it with someone, it doesn’t look the same. People love iPhones for the consistency and color accuracy, FYI. Editing a photo is just one example to understand that it's not a good habit to adjust the display colors.
@@nGons You act as if everyone were experts in pictures and coloring. Rather, the opposite is the case, most people don't care what the colors look like, the main thing is that the photo looks ok and in the end the AI edited the photo anyway and it doesn't matter what your display is set up 😄
Listen to me ! there is a weird thing no body talking about and i hope someone address this to Samsung! why the 9.9x photos are much clearer than the 10x !! specially indoors ! 😅😅😅😅😅
In the night mode pictures, you can tell there's more detail with the update. If you zoom in and compare the hole in the bottom left palm leaf, you can definitely see more detail in the update picture.
The vividness is affecting pictures taken in sunny condition badly. It's turning everything red-green and it is quite unappealing. The Teck community has ruined this great device finally because even if you don't put the vividness slider on, Samsung has already gone ahead and brought this saturation to the camera. Are you in the vivid mode on the S24 Ultra making the camera comparison?
for tge first time in year's i switched from apple because this so called washed screen was very close to real to life calibration, and i am prepared to go back to apple if they will fuck it up with the oversaturated colours
The update is not as vivid on my s22 ultra. I didn't have any issue with the natural colors but the addition of the vivid option is a "welcome back" update.
Paying 1200E for a phone whose display experiences random green lines, graininess, has low PWM which bothers your eyes, lacks Dolby Vision support which is nice to have for Netflix, no charger in the box, no fast charging, some shitty old small sensors and a total mess in terms of photo and video consistency, quality and optimisation, plus a ton of other bugs, surely sounds like "for no reason".
@@dannyg8032 hey brother if you don't know that Samsung makes iphones display and camera sensor so you don't have to be in tech community....go watch reviews from big RUclipsrs I'm talking about the phone cause I have the phone all of your bullshit didn't bother me because I know you isheeps are absolute idiots...
Thank you Daniel for an in-depth tour of the pre & post-update. I've only had mine for about a week and have only begun to scratch the surface. I agree with you on the Vivid slider. It puts the punch back in. I didn’t use it on the S23+ I upgraded from and feel the new Gorilla glass may have something to do with it. I'm amazed with the camera so far. I love the CPU. My apps update in seconds on a WiFi down of about 660MB and moving media files is very quick. I haven't used the stylus much yet as I've been spending quite a bit of time reorganizing my Gallery. I moved up from a 512MB S23+ to a 1TB S24 Ultra. Look forward to more of your excellent insights into this phone!

The S23 Ultra just seems to be better with the vividness. But I am still very happy with my s24U
Looks the same to me with the 23u and 24u side by side.
Do the 50mp and 200mp camera still add processing after taking photos? Usually making the photo look worse.
So they added some colour and sharpening. Way to go, can just buy the s23 now.
My s24ultra is spectacular 🙌 thanks samsung

A lot of time s23 ultra has perfect exposure while s24 ultra isn't. Also the noise are better handled in s23 ultra than s24 ultra.
I hope they fixed it this update

They did very well taking care of this issue. I had the same issue with my Pixel 7 Pro with the screen being very washed out, and they never fixed it, so that says something for Samsung.
still no update in Türkiye for 24 ultra.. and no One UI 6.0 for tab as8 Ultra!!!
To be fair to Samsung they were probably right not to have the vivid slider, but it does look better with it. The reality is that even if it looks vivid on the phone screen it will lose that vividness when printed or viewed on any other screen. Editing on a vivid screen will mean that edits to photos or video will not look the same on any other device. That being said I'll probably turn vivid right up as it looks good
coming from iPhone and considering this or zfold(heard qa is an issue), but apples lack of innovation is getting old and before iphones I used android…which is better?
cccc... To say there was no problem with graininess is not right because all S24 ultras have that problem! go in a dark room, instal some display test app and look at gray colors at minimum brightness and i guaranty you, you will find your problem.
I specifically mention I never had the problem. So there was no problem for me that got fixed
@techwithbenefits oh I'm sorry. Are you saying that the grainy screen at minimum brightness never bothered you, or are you saying that you never had that problem because your unit doesn't have a grainy screen at minimum brightness?
Unfortunately, since it took so long for the update, I got used to the Natural mode and now vivid just doesn't look right to me.
me too got used to the adaptive!
I can see the difference in performance, especially in the camera, after the last update.
The leaves in the photo in dark backyard ! The big green leaves look better in feb update.
As someone who is watching your video, this comparison video format has made me often wonder: " how do these images translate?" ...i mean a) i don't have the s24Ultra...i have the S23 ultra but i am watching on my secondary 1+ McLaren 7t pro 5G. b) "does viewing on a different screen come into play ?,"...just the different resolution and peculiar" nits of brightness" that may vary model n manufacturer. c) as little as i know, admittedly, i do know my personal preference is for the January phone shots. My taste on certain comparitives. Although, i do switch back and forth. I can't say as a hard rule " January" . But generally.
Hi Sir, How do you know what patch your device is from?
This 100% why there is no innovation or change between years anymore. And Apple runs scare of change as well. A few tech people will lose their minds with how cool and exciting changes are, but at the same time millions will lose their minds that anything changed (while simultaneously complaining that nothing changes)
February 👈 And you see more as you just can! And please if you can be super cool to see more colour with say food on the plate and outside nicer outlook if that cool by you and not sad days sort of thing. Thx 👍
Just a quick note. Eye comfort shield helps you sleep. I always keep it on now.
Will the I R update filter down to the s23 ultra?
Sirrrr I am having image shift issue in s24 ultra plz highlight that issue that from switching from 3x to 5x image shifting problem plz share some shorts shooting near objects changing lenses 3x to 5x to 10 and also video shoot
Really great review and comparison 👍
Natural was always better than vivid
The more S24 Ultra video that I watch I feel that the S24 Ultra is like a AAA Gaming Title that was just put out to meet a release date and there will be at least 6/12 months of fixes coming.
I never had any issues with my S24 Ultra, my girlfriends is fine too. Screen colors were fine and phone is working great
It should of been like this from launch. It still neeeds tweaked but we're going in the right direction
It's a hardware issue. Stop selling false information.
I'd probably get this phone if I could afford it, altough if you go with a bigger zoom the images don't look so well. Or maybe Iphone 15 pro, altough I've never had Apple before.
Honestly, I've always kept my S23 Ultra in Natural mode and, after playing with the Feb update to my S24 Ultra, I went right back to Natural.
that Exynos clip was looking better than SD😮
The graininess comes from using a photo wallpaper from your older device that was transferred over to your new device. The update fixed this, but anyone that doesn't have the update will need to change their wallpaper.
not true, all the microscope analysis shows that it's how the individual pixels are behaving in certain situations (lighting levels etc)
@Justin-ee3im I see after your comment I did some research and what your talking about seems to be affecting certain people's devices all over their UI. I had a graininess issue with both of mine as well, but they both were fixed by switching the display to QHD+, motion smoothness to adaptive and switching my wallpaper, but my issue was noticeable only in my wallpaper and settings interface.
Amazing observations...
I find ai delete and move is not progressing fast and ai is not great really. 😢
There is an issue with max brightness now
this update ruined both of our s24 plus and ultra. nothing is loading, some settings are back to factory. Instagram, RUclips, Facebook says "couldn't refresh". phone is much slower. having a vivid screen is the last thing you think about when using a phone
I think you should make a video to test the camera with human subjects more.
Thank's
Are any of these coming to the s23 ultra or they just forget about it ?
One ui 6.1 is coming meaning the ai technology and may be the vivid slider!!!
Samsung did the bare minimum with this update. The vividness slider really doesn't do anything, I compared it next to old S23 Ultra and the colours are still washed out on the S24 Ultra.
Even worse though, you can't use the vividness slider if you have eye comfort shield enabled. The option simply disappears. That's either a big oversight and lack of attention to detail, or just a skill issue.
Great video
It still needs a lot of work. I think they just rushed this phone and it's too much hype around this phone
realy good video good job
They definitely rushed out the release. We shouldn't be spending 1300 to beta test our devices. That said they did respond quickly to update.
I don't know why but I just love Samsung Galaxy S24 ultra More 😊😊
How is the text made clear? Is it down to recognising text and processing?
i dont know but all i can say is that its definitely much better
Magic just gotta have a good magician
Just AI recognising text and enhances it
I like the February food lmao
every company has drawbacks but still in mobile Samsung is the best!
No. iPhone is better
@@od1sseas663may be for you......not for everyone.
@@od1sseas663sorry i need phone for every purpose from call dialer to multitasking not for mirror shots and with outdated stuffs
I am watching of samsung s24 ultra
You can't ask that huge price, and claim you are selling a flagship, while you have those old sensors, and a catastrophic way of processing images and videos. Yeah, S24 Ultra is not just it's cameras, it's also its bad battery, it's slow charging compared to competitors, it's missing fast charger, the myriad of bugs which weren't solved on the S23 Ultra, but now they are even more on the S24 Ultra, it's screen with low PWM which damages the vision and the sleep of many people, that display with no Dolby Vision support, no 10 or 12 bit color space. But let me tell you what S24 Ultra really is: is a rehashed S23 Ultra with just some software updates and those Ai fancy features for which Samsung paid Google to have a few months of exclusivity, before they will be rolled on all Android 14 smartphones. S24 Ultra is a slap on the face of the S23 Ultra customers who didn't get the proper updates and fixes for the price they paid for this phone, while Samsung decided to release an S24 Ultra with some software optimisations which should have been released since summer 2023 on the S22 and the S23 Ultra to fix the mess they made. As I said, you can be as much as a fanboy as you want, in the end your channel only praises Samsung, but the truth is that Samsung flagships are overpriced garbage phones, overtaken in features, hardware, performance, design and software by many other smartphone companies who really inovate from one year to another.
Idk man, i come From Apple, used it literally since The iPhone 3G and up so i had EVERY pro iPhone ever, And i Have 1 month with the S24 Ultra, And Its Amazing, i had the iPhone 14 PM and It was Good but noticed it was just Laggy, slow at times and just super repetitive experience, so i Got the iPhone 15 Pro, because i thought mayne my 14 Pro is Just Having a mother board issue idk... So once i got the 15pro i was like wth, it feels the same as the 14P its slow laggy like its brand new wth, turns out My wifes too and my Dads too, (we all have the Pros) so i got tired and A WEEK later of getting my iPhone 15 Pro i buy the S24 Ultra, and maaan oohhh maaan Its superior in every way, its faster, the Screen is just so much better, The battery life is Soooo greaaat and The fast charging, like i dont get to see it often cause my phone doesn't die, but yesterday i binged watched a Show for hours on full brightness!! And I got home at 16% I put it to charge while i showered changed then went out to eat with my wife and noticed my phone was at 90% of battery LIKE WTHHH we got home did everything in like 30 min or less and i went from 16% to 90!!!! This Phones just Immaculate.
no nav bar update,,,,,I'm disliking that
I still feel Samsung and even Apple are behind these Chinese brands Oppo and other brands there’s look so ahead
Should I stop reading reviews? Most of you gyus are so rude. How's about you produce your own phones for us to enjoy. I come in peace.
Nothing is fixed = pics look terrible.
The question = why did you tell in 10 films that this phones was making the best pics on earth ?
Battery bakcup reduced after update
Facial recognition sucks
Watching on my iPhone 13, not a lover or hater for Android or IOS, but like a lot of customers out there I just can’t decide. Was thinking of the iPhone 14 Pro but the Samsung S24+ looks appealing also. My “fear” is that I might regret it and wanting to go back to iOS 😂 I did that before with a OnePlus phone. But, if I look at the European models of the S24 and the plus model, they are not equipped with the Snapdragon that was released in the US etc. That’s a bit of a bummer for me. Toss out experiences are welcome, greetings from the Netherlands 👍🏻
Crapple sucks
@@DENVEROUTDOORMANwell, that was a productive and helpful commend
Garbage video quality , can’t even see what you are comparing.
Maybe set RUclips to 2160p mate
First of its kind lol
Talk more less photos video comparison😵💫
Here's the deal I really need your help with this guys cause I'm really struggling. I'm having a really difficult time with Apple right now I have all their products I have the Apple Watch Ultra which I really like probably my favorite Apple product and then I have my iPhone 15 Pro Max Win terabyte I have a MacBook Pro I have a 2018 iPad Pro Still works great but here's my issue. There's no multitasking on my phone which is killing me and my iPhone 15 Pro Max feels exactly like my iPhone 13 Pro Max, which felt like my iPhone 11 felt like my iPhone X and so many ways. I don't know if I'm going crazy, but it's really hard to buy the same phone over and over again and Siri is complete garbage and I really want company is going to lean into AI and also lean into strong features like multitasking and things that Samsung is doing and I think someone said it when they said Apple wants to sell you multiple products so if they make one product better than the other product, you might just buy one product. I feel that way about the iPhone if it were as good as the Samsung phones with multitasking in AI maybe wouldn't buy that tablets me know your thoughts I'm just getting bored with Apple and I feel like they never really innovate that much and I'm use all their default apps because I try to support the stock situation but I really find myself bored. Let me know if you can help me through this, I wonder if I should get a Samsung S24 ultra or S25 ultra down the line to feel something different.
Have you guys ever felt this way here's another thing voice texting on iPhone is painful. I remember having android phones and really appreciating how accurate the voice texting was that actually actually bumps me out about Apple to. Also, how can you sell? A premium smartphone has to have such a terrible assistant. Siri literally feels like they just forgot and literally don't care anymore.
Thoughts 💭 make it make sense I didn't wanna leave Apple, but I feel like apples leaving me and it's really hard to make sense of it all right now.
No matter what i am extremely happy with my S24 ULTRA!!! 😊😊
I'm still not convinced the 200 and 50 megapixel modes in camera are not fixed. It's strange that when you take the shot, then open the picture, it looks right at first, then after processing it looks blurry and washed out.
Agree!!!!!
Dude, the processing sucks. Why can't I just have a picture that looks exactly like the viewfinder?
Yep 50mp mode is straight up bad while 200mp mode is just "not good" so as of now 12mp mode really is the only way to go.
@@cezarcristiangheorghe997 50MP is great for me. idk what you're talking about.
@donkey7921 If you're taking photo in high dynamic light environment, there's high probability that photo looks good in preview, then later it's ruined by the AI post process which can't even be disabled.
I always turn vivid off, so didn't have a problem with the release software. It's nice to have options though.
same
shut up
I am the same and agree.
same. i dont wanna edit photos i post on social media that are wack cuz of vivid mode.
but like why? the colors are lovely. im using full vividness but even half or 0 vividness is better than natural
Bro in s24 ultra
Camera is like a cheap phone quality
But after pic has been taken it shows very nice
Why this happens.....
Pls tell me that is this will be fixed
I saw nothing was changed with a camera at S24 Ultra... Only display colors. Nothing at x10, x5 zoom, nothing at refresh rate (was 24-120 Hz), nothing at night mode. I've made lots of pictures... Nothing. Why we got 600+ Mb useless empty update???? I was expexted to see improvement in Expert RAW. They compressed all gradients to ugly 8 bit and they processed RAW. .. also app make fuse from 2-9 shots, but you cannot set up ISO and other parameters 😅useless. If you switch to just taking one RAW the app will over-proces it to make "better" what, why? What the point?? You will get wanished mess of pixels instead of getting RAW😢
Compare the batteries please i feel mine drains much faster
And charges slower as well
Pro tip: Never mess with display colors; it's better to turn Vivid off. You never want to see the wrong colors. For example, if you're editing a photo, you may think the saturation is great, but if you view it on another phone, it will be undersaturated.
I agree...when editing pics and videos you want the colors to be what others see and not what your over saturated phone is...
Others are not gonna have your settings..neutral as possible
and how many people do that? 99% of people take a photo and it's fine. Nothing is edited or colors adjusted^^
@Atreusz it will look fine to you. Then you share it with someone, it doesn’t look the same. People love iPhones for the consistency and color accuracy, FYI. Editing a photo is just one example to understand that it's not a good habit to adjust the display colors.
@@nGons You act as if everyone were experts in pictures and coloring. Rather, the opposite is the case, most people don't care what the colors look like, the main thing is that the photo looks ok
and in the end the AI edited the photo anyway and it doesn't matter what your display is set up 😄
@@Atreusz I respect your opinion.
I'm sorry, how in the world is the right one "darker" than the one on the left? 4:30
unbelievable!
Very minor improvements. Very specific and also a bit vague
Listen to me ! there is a weird thing no body talking about and i hope someone address this to Samsung! why the 9.9x photos are much clearer than the 10x !! specially indoors ! 😅😅😅😅😅
I imagine because it switches cameras when it hits 10.
@@thetechlibrarian no bro it uses the same 5x telephoto
But the camera was not updated, the s23 camera is very much better, I regret switching
Just the video I was looking for... Subscribed!!!
In the night mode pictures, you can tell there's more detail with the update. If you zoom in and compare the hole in the bottom left palm leaf, you can definitely see more detail in the update picture.
The vividness is affecting pictures taken in sunny condition badly. It's turning everything red-green and it is quite unappealing. The Teck community has ruined this great device finally because even if you don't put the vividness slider on, Samsung has already gone ahead and brought this saturation to the camera. Are you in the vivid mode on the S24 Ultra making the camera comparison?
for tge first time in year's i switched from apple because this so called washed screen was very close to real to life calibration, and i am prepared to go back to apple if they will fuck it up with the oversaturated colours
Or you can leave the setting on natural. A bit cheaper option.
It's called user feedback.
No improvements on blurry pictures when taking moving objects like children or animals?
The update is not as vivid on my s22 ultra. I didn't have any issue with the natural colors but the addition of the vivid option is a "welcome back" update.
Love your videos man !!! It's really sad that RUclipsrs are talking bad about galaxy s24 ultra for no reason you are the only one we trust.. thanks 🙏
Thank you! It can be hard to block out the noise but I'm confident in what I'm doing and this solidifies that further 🙏
Paying 1200E for a phone whose display experiences random green lines, graininess, has low PWM which bothers your eyes, lacks Dolby Vision support which is nice to have for Netflix, no charger in the box, no fast charging, some shitty old small sensors and a total mess in terms of photo and video consistency, quality and optimisation, plus a ton of other bugs, surely sounds like "for no reason".
@@dannyg8032 hey brother if you don't know that Samsung makes iphones display and camera sensor so you don't have to be in tech community....go watch reviews from big RUclipsrs I'm talking about the phone cause I have the phone all of your bullshit didn't bother me because I know you isheeps are absolute idiots...
Thank you Daniel for an in-depth tour of the pre & post-update. I've only had mine for about a week and have only begun to scratch the surface. I agree with you on the Vivid slider. It puts the punch back in. I didn’t use it on the S23+ I upgraded from and feel the new Gorilla glass may have something to do with it. I'm amazed with the camera so far. I love the CPU. My apps update in seconds on a WiFi down of about 660MB and moving media files is very quick. I haven't used the stylus much yet as I've been spending quite a bit of time reorganizing my Gallery. I moved up from a 512MB S23+ to a 1TB S24 Ultra. Look forward to more of your excellent insights into this phone!
