Galaxy S24 Ultra Review // Three Months Later 

Feels nice to finally be able to say this: Watching this on my S24 ultra

Watching this on my S24. Don't have the ultra though. Just the base model. I love this phone.

this is a feast for my 21:9 monitor. love the video format!

bro your videos are so high quality and just feel smooth 👍

The views you are getting are criminally low. You are doing everything correctly, nay, perfect. Why is it this low? I've been following you for a couple of years now, I don't get it.

for me that coating is a life changer, I am a software developer and i work in office and basically semi light places and thwere less reflaction and darker screen makes day night difference than my s23 ultra.

I can see you spend a lot of times to choose colours, and tools to make these videos. A huge congratulations because its amazing. Also the background always fantastic so yeah you're on the top in my list because I always enjoy every single second when I watch your videos. Thank you for your job and your time. Peace. 😊

I have an s23 ultra and the s24 ultra..the performance is noticable but only slightly. I have noticed that occasional stutter is no longer there. I know its not a big deal hahq but i did notice. Great video man.

This is my first time watching anything on this channel. I was so impressed by the quality of the content I subscribed the minute I finished watching the video.

Always excited for this series ❤🎉 Also the Intro.. wow

Watching your videos on my phone and being able to take advantage of the 21:9 aspect ratio is always appreciated. Good video as always.

Your videos are the most underrated . They are so well-made premium videos but do not get the attention they deserve. I wish you more views are subscribers Sam !

0:30 where I can find this wallpaper please?

I am your biggest fan sir, typing this all the way from GHANA 🇬🇭

Mate watching your beautifully crafted reviews is a therapeutic process of its own.

Which notes app are you using 1:47 timespan please let me know ❤

I am so jealous of his wallpaper collection. They are amazing

The Xiaomi 14 Ultra or the Oppo Find X7 Ultra aren’t better in photos and videos ?

One question after three months of use? Have you used are screen protector? 😅

I've never had haptics turned on on my phone before (or controller for that matter), as soon as I felt it on the Ultra, I fell in love.

Fingerprint scanner is better as works through tempered glass screen protectors now. My 23 ultra had to have a cut out or weird gel where the scanner was. The 24 doesn't

hello @sambeckman, what's the name of the launcher at 7:54?

Can you explain the face unlock issue further please? I don't understand why you would be bothered by the fingerprint sensor disappearing from the screen once it has recognised your face and unlocked, the phone is already unlocked so you want the option to have two forms of unlocking simultaneously? Loved this video btw, very clean and informative 💪🏼

I have turned on the performance profile to Light from standard, I am getting great battery life.

Not totally in agreement with all your views but can I just say: great video production !! Top notch quality reviewing indeed. Will follow you just on that.

sam please drop a yt short or a mini tutorial of how to make that app bar please

What a beautifully made video.. its a delight to watch.

Yeah, my battery is about the same as yours, 1 day 4 hours or so. I get more stable battery life on my Pixel 8 Pro. Considering shifting to OP 12 or whenever the new Motorola Edge Ultra comes out for battery.

Sam how did you change icon packs on stock one ui? I'm using nova at the moment!

What a beatiful video wow, you're awesome bro!

Watching on my S24 Ultra. Loving it!

Can you explain the fingerprint icon and face unlock issue? If you authenticate with your face, you won't need a fingerprint icon or to scan it as the phone is unlocked? Have I missed your point here?

i'm trying to build that app bar similar to he has but i just can't get it right, what do i do??

what icon pack are you using? Seems great

Feels nice to finally be able to say this: Watching this on my S24 ultra 1:24

plls provide wallpapeer link along with your videos

i have changed my icon pack and when the phone goes in aod it doesnt invert colors like it does in the lockscreen. So my icons are black but their color should become white in aod for me to be able to actually see them. It doesnt. do you have a solution to this?

I'm literally watching on a 720p laptop and this is looking better then my future 😭 you gotta make a color grading tutorial man

0:34 Jesus Christ... I hope those 100 out of folder/grouped apps are organized in some sort of way lol I bought my mom an unlocked A55 and the first 10 minutes was me re-organizing it for her and instructing her how to manage where to put apps lol

smart choice would have been to go with the 0.5x 1X 5x 10x. The 3x is useless bc the sensor is so small that most of the time it crops into the main sensor to get light

Bro it's really sad that we can only view the good homescreen setup in his app (Palette) and the wallpapers which I really wanted I can't get them

Watching this on my S24 ultra but its kinda sad to see no one talking about the grainy display issue others see. Mines has it but nowhere near as bad as other pictures ive seen. Outside of that literally the perfect phone unless I'm on a gray background at 2 am with low brightness 😭.

Great review. watching from my s24+, not the ultra though. But I love this phone .

I returned mine and got the iPhone 15 pro max it was both cheaper and had imo, a better camera. The colors looks better and more realistic. And when i send pictures to all of my friends they wont look like it was taken on an old sony ericsson camera phone. Its a great phone! Especially if all of your friends and family also has android :)

Whens the amazing and high quality review on Oneplus 12?

Just to add my own views, because i bought the ultra pretty much at the presentation in January. short version: user experience 99.9% matches my user experience with my old Note 20 ultra longer version: The phone looks better (which is actually important to me). Not as much as people (youtuber) try to make out .. with the more squared off edges, the flat screen and so - those design aspects are actually minor or irrelevant. What DOES make a difference is not having the huge camera mountain of the Note 20 ultra in the rear. The screen itself feels nearly the same to me. I know it has a lot more brightness (not so relevant in my country - we do not have too much sunshine), better colour presentation and whatever else .. but for me, a casual user - it is 100% the same. (and that includes the rounded corners vs. the flat screen ... user-wise, no difference) The battery lasts - what a surprise - for a similar amount of time. Yes, i am sure, i ended my "day" on the Note at around 20% .. and i end my day on the 24 ultra at 45% .. but none of that makes a difference. I put both to "protect battery mode" at 80% .. charge them when i get home and leave them on stand by for the night and ready to be used for the next day. The AI stuff .... not useless .. but useless to me, i dont do photos with a phone. The camera ... same thing .. not taking photos on a phone - they all suffer from processing, no matter what phone. Size and weight - it is heavier than the Note 20 ultra, but not so much that it makes a difference. Materials - this one is actually a big one. I appreciate the inclusion of the MUCH tougher display glass, that seems "nearly" on par with sapphire (but not quite). I do not know how shatter resistant it is .. because i tend not to drop my phone(s) ... but i guess that it is glass - and so it can crack. My connections and hotspot connectivity "seems" noticably better on the 24 ultra compared to the note. I do not know why .. but i get a consistant and good connectivity on the 24 ultra in rooms and places where i did not get a signal on the note 20. Connecting to the hotspot also works much better. my conclusion is: The 24 ultra is a good phone. However .. Samsungs (and most phone makers) improvements are only miniscule. Ever since the .. i think the s10 (about that time) .. Samsung has not made great leaps anymore. I could easily do everything i am doing today with a S10 5G. Much like i could do everything with an iPhone X today or a Huawei Mate 40 ... phones have plateaued.

Can you make a S23 ultra review? How the phone is after 1 year.

This aspect ratio is PERFECT.

IMO, Samsung should have opted for a higher MP 3x sensor, and should have retained the 10x optical zoom camera. That way, we'd have got a better 3.1x-9.9x digital zoom range as compared to previous generation phones without compromising with the amazing space zoom capabilities. And needless to say that we'd still be having 3x-6x portraits range in this setup too, so a win-win there too.

I need the wallpaper from the thumbnail! 😍

That thumbnail is clean!

Any green light after 2 years?

One issue bothers me , on Samsung internet browser when you call the keyboard it slides a bit laggy . Overall though great phone

Great video, Sam! Love the quality of your clips. However, as someone who owned the S24 ultra and then returned it after a full month of daily use, I can't agree with "honestly, it has no issues whatsoever". For me, the cameras have been hit or miss (mostly the latter, unfortunately); even turning off all post-processing has not improved the results. Portraits of my kids were a mess in almost every situation, as were selfies where more than 2 people were in the frame. And there were multiple software bugs (apps not loading properly or hanging, like RU-vid, Gmail, Microsoft apps etc.). To add insult to injury, note the display issues so many people are complaining about. Even the sales rep I returned the phone to mentioned that a lot of unhappy customers are returning the device. So yeah, not quite a success for Samsung, unfortunately, especially when you consider the price. Hopefully they will have a better proposition next year.

Watching from my 24 Ultra 😊

Galaxy s24+. switched from an Iphone 15 Pro. Glad I switched to the light.

Samsung recently enhanced battery performance way way better in the May patch which was rolled out a day ago. Unfortunately your video was uploaded a day behind and you missed out on the battery enhancement updates in this video. Right now the battery performance on the S24 Ultra is so freaking good.

For me, about haptics (which I consider fundamental), my top is: 1-Iphone (pro max has better than standard iphones but stop on top 1) 2-Xiaomi 3-Samsung and Pixel (both have their respective pros / cons)

I feel like the battery isn't great either and 4-6 hours of screen on time on a 1400€+ is not great. Also two days ago I experienced the weirdest bug ever, the screen turned green (not green lines, the whole screen turned green) and the phone started to heat up like crazy, it happened twice, I now rebooted it and hasn't happened since yesterday but in over a month and half it hadn't happened before

I need that icon pack. Thanks in advance

I love the quality of Samsung products overall. I'm watching on my Z fold 3 and its still going strong. Idk if i can go back to a conventional smartphone 🤭 Having a big bright oled on my persons has changed my train commutes for the better. I cant go back to Netflix on a normal phone lol

He is the best RU-vidr ... the quality, the content, the format, the reality....Love from INDIA dude :)

Change from an iPhone 14 pro to this and I love it

It is already 3 months 😅wow the time goes very fast

Real world I've tested my S24U against most of the other top flagship models from friends and family, and I totally disagree with you that it's not the best in anything. It has the best screen hands down. It has the best feature suite hands down. Just because YOU don't use some features, doesn't mean they aren't vital to others and hands down a better feature than other phones rendition of features. The SPen jumps to mind. The SPen can do sooooooo many more things than 99% of users realize it can do. There are hour long SPen feature tutorials which move at light speed. Most people just don't know all it can do. And that is the case with many other features on this phone. The sound is as good as any phone I've heard, or better. The gaming experience is unsurpassed. The battery life is longer than any other phone I've ever used, including my S23U. And I keep my phone on full brightness. This phone is the full package and I defy anyone to approach me with their flagship phone, sit down side by side and put them through their paces. I've won handily with everyone I've tried this with, especially CRapple people.

Upgraded from an iPhone 13 and I am enjoying the change

Did you root it?

so good!

Had mine for a month. Switched from iphone and I'm loving it with no regrets whatsoever

what icon that u used? how can it so small..

Why are the icons so tint 😅

Where I get thumbnail used wallpaper?

why you want fingerprint senser after you unlock the phone with face id ? what the purpose you already unlocked the phone?

2:20 the fingerprint Icon does disapear after face is recognized, what are you talking about?

Android has an issue which no one seems to address: Very poor cameras on everything but Pixel, premium Samsung and premium Sony. Everything else is junk and you'd think that in the budget segment(the highest sales volume market) would see better cameras, CPU and design but they seem to churn out the same phones year after year but with new names and designs. I mean look at the CPUs: they all are basically still equal to a SD 690/695 which came out 3 years ago I think. No 7 series and no 8 series gen 1 etc. If Apple makes the SE good and affordable alot of these OEM's will see a massive loss, especially Samsung.

Newy Represent! 👊🏻👍🏻

Performance is clearly better on the S24U and better optimization. I don't care about your points either i use them both. S24U is really fluid and i try to make stutter i can lol. I did make the S23U stutter on heavy load a couple of times. Performance difference aint drastic but its there for sure

flat screen ?

waiting for the s25 ultra since my bf bought me the pixel when it came out :(

Is it worth?

S24 ultra is big brother ❤

Absolutely spot on. I've been an S24 Ultra user since launch, use it alongside the Xiaomi 14 (for photography), iPhone 15 Pro Max (for Apple ecosystem purposes) and the Nothing Phone 2a (my actual daily driver due to its software experience and battery endurance). The S24 Ultra is not my favorite when it comes to a specific feature but it sure packs the most things despite not being the best at those things, the most all-rounded device sort of jack of all trades device that I mainly use for gaming lately. Other than that, it is freaking heavy. Hand fatigue is real 😂

Just got my s24 ultra + galaxy watch 6 for free.. great deal

QUE PASA CON LA SELFIE PORQUE SE VE MEDIO BORROSO?

I'm watching this on my beast of a phone s24 ultra 😊

I think some of us don't know this, if you on your home screen, double tap on side of your screen will lock your phone

Like it with my S24U

Oh gosh thought this was an Ozzy Man review. 😭

Does anyone know the icon packs?

If you can get your hands on a US s24 plus, then that would be the best choice, and you'll save way more money

You videos are😍

I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max, I’ve had iOS for years and instead of getting a iPhone 15pm , I’m considering getting a s24U

Dude, the quality is on point! All the footage and pics were awesome. By the way, I'd love to see reviewers take the Pro camera features from the S24U and show us what they can do when they really push the limits with post-processing. Like this guyru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ge3diRGo7EY.htmlsi=yCko34eaBJo85-r4

Watching on iPhone 15 pro max feeling a little sad…. 😢

2 months in watching this on my s24 ultra 😎 feels hella amazing especially with my thinborne case

You spying me? Was just searching review later video about the phone 😂

I am an absolute android noob so don't clown me please lol, but can you make this phone use Google Assistant? Like hey google……… im tired of apple and its eco system and im finally ready to pull the trigger on an andorid device but i do want a google eco system so im deciding between the 24 ultra and the pixel 9 pro

First unbiased S24 ultra review out there. I had one and sold it just because of the discriminating size of the device. Was so uncomfortable in the hand, but was a beast that just needed optimization. Sold it and don’t really miss it. That and the s pen smelt super weird. Like a burnt plastic. Ew

These videos are almost alike among creators. Peak phone has come and gone. Every model now is basically the exact same at the core. Both iPhone and galaxy

Excellent phone. Battery life is a bit up and down after each update, but it is more than enough even after the worst update. But, the smartphone market is mature and down to brand loyalty as most flagship Android phones offer a similar experience, using the same chips and components. The cameras are the main distinguishing feature, and Chinese OEMs have better hardware than the S24U and are catching up with software. In the US, where the government makes it unlikely that Chinese OEMs will ever release there now, Samsung gets overblown praise. If Huawei, Xiaomi, Honor, OPPO and others were allowed in, Samsung would lose millions of users. Not only do Chinese OEMs have better camera hardware and greater value, but they also have faster charging, innovative battery tech, unprecedented glass protection as well and now fantastic UI and updates, and remain silky smooth.
