IIRC, You are meant to change position of your finger each time you are asked to press it to screen. So, you should have used bottom, top, and both sides of that one finger during the adding process. Pressing it the same way 5-8 times won't work, when you aren't pressing the EXACT side which was recorded.

CJ, I have a suggestion regarding your slow WIFI speed tests on the S24 Ultra. As you have illustrated, I have had the same problem occasionally with ALL our household phones which included S22Iltra, my new S24 Ultra and my wife's iPhone 13Max, ect... . Interestingly, I also see this problem on my desktop PC which is directly connected to my router via Cat 6 and also on my WIFI TV's. My ISP provides me a 1Gb down, 30 Mb up connection. #1) In my case, I simply toggle off my phones Wi-Fi, then toggle it back on selecting the same connection. On my PC, I do the same for the direct Cat 6 connection. #2) I change the default Metered Network from Auto, to "None" or not, for both Wifi and Cat 6 connections and that make sure the WIFI 6 setting is enabled on my router. (mine is set to off by default) #3) I set my router to reboot at 3:00am every day. #4) While my PC runs all night, I still reboot it and my Cable Modem each morning when I am making my coffee. Doing this provides me with really consistent, but not 100% perfectly reliable high speed thruput of WIFI at 940Mb Down and 35Mb up and Cat 6 speeds of 990Mb down and 35Mb up. While I know almost nothing about modern WIF or direct connection networks or routers, I think I know may have an idea of what's happening in my case. My ISP, provides me with Dynamic IP and Dynamic DNS only. When I spoke to the tech staff at the ISP on several occasions, they said that users are moved around on different channels (or whatever) to accommodate the fastest and lowest traffic connection available. They also said, they do not offer Manual, Static or Fixed connections because it is better (Quality Of Service) for the ISP and the customer. Who am I to argue? So in a nutshell, I think that for some reason, the dynamic connection occasionally does not rotate to a less congested channel. Rebooting my devices pretty much always fixes this problem. Interestingly, I wear high end hearing aids for profound hearing loss due to my military service. Occasionally those things misbehave also, requiring a reboot. Works like a charm. Back in the old days of MS DOS, and early windows I beta tested (RAD) Rapid Application Development database software (Paradox, FoxPro, Alpha5, ect) which I used to write front end and back-end retail systems. Somehow, my ISP discovered this, and they have since asked me to Beta Test each new Cable Internet speed they offer prior to rolling out to the public. Again, to be clear, I am very little network knowledge, however I do notice when it's operating reliably and preforming well. I hope this helps. Keep up the great work with your channel.

Love your honest reviews & all your content. When outside recording yourself, your skin tone looked very close to the camera you used to record this video while being inside. The skin tones looked a lot closer than the indoor comparison. I'm not talking about when you were using the "pro video mode". Definitely inconsistency going on with Samsung and their cameras. When you were using pro video outside it looked like the color tones were a bit on the cool side where I typically prefer the warmer tones which I can't seem to replicate. I'm not a big fan of pro mode anymore. Speaking about pro mode/expert raw, Samsung some how found a way to screw those modes up over the past few generations. Raw photos are NOT raw anymore. They are processed images which screws up the whole point of having raw photography in "pro mode". If you haven't already, I encourage you to was Brent Hall on KZbin and his professional opinion about these issues when using pro mode & expert raw. I'm really hoping Samsung steps up their game in the camera processing department, especially with white balance & overexposing every damn image in bright lighting conditions. Hopefully this next update brings some changes in these areas but I'm very skeptical.

Hi! My fingerprints don't work properly either, I've done them repeatedly and repeatedly and carefully, even when adding a fingerprint, this sensor doesn't read my fingerprints properly, oh my god, how come I don't press these fingers or set my fingers, it just doesn't read my fingerprints properly even after adding them during. My hands are also very dry often. I found that if you have a dirty finger, the fingerprint reader works better. It was the same mess with the S23 ultra, the face detection is also included in the s24 ultra, so if four times out of five it does not detect the fingers, I quickly open with the face detection, I also have a stronger sensitivity when pressing, it is not useful either. In this regard, my iphone 15 pro max is still absolute, whether it's dark or white, it opens at lightning speed at any time. Thank you!

Well, coming from the Note 20 Ultra, I absolutely LOVE it!!! The one caveat is that it's not as Loud as the 20 Ultra. Sure, it sounds fuller (Bass, Mids, Treble), but it's not as Loud. As for the vividness, it's already been addressed, the correction has been recognized, and a "fix" comes out tomorrow. But the density of the image is unparalleled. Even if it's not vibrant, the image quality is amazing! Fingerprint sensor is light years beyond the Note 20 Ultra. It's "instant". But, my favorite feature is the brightness (nits) from the display in direct daylight. I thought my Note 20 Ultra was fine, but now I realize just how far behind that phone was. It is nearly indistinguishable between shaded and full sunlight.

I've never had issues on Samsung phones with wifi except with the s24. Even with 2.4 it's super slow compared to my s23 on 2.4. I haven't found any answers. Samsung holds its value especially if you trade in with Samsung. Their trade in deals are insane.

One of your best videos! Not only for the content, but for the energy you had in it. Very interesting! And very interesting thoughts about innovation. I wish tech reviewers kept insisting like you about skin tones and general auto mode excesses. I want Samsung cameras to perform to their full potential, and it never will if both consumers and KZbinrs don't insist (more) on these issues.

Samsung can't outperform Apple's silicon; only ARM, with its SnapDragon, can do that.

The negatives I have found are: Manufacturing is a little sloppy, where the frame meets the antenna bands are not smooth One UI is still limited compared to other phones I've used App specific crashing (some games, Snapchat has some major issues) Good Lock seems to amplify these issues Recycled design is annoying I can't get over the fact that it omits Qi2 The design makes an already very wide phone even wider (titanium edges curving out)

Skin tone on looks orangish for every single family member on iphone 14 pro/15 pro max which is annoying. Both pixel 8 pro and s24 ultra are superior. I get confused sometimes whether these reviewers are paid or my and my family members' eyes are blind

Change the settings and look at your display with the eye comfort shield on and in dark mode, much better and clearer display option and easy on the eyes

Brightness of display is perfectly fine on my s24u. Adaptive Brightness works better now compared to previous models. I didn't have to manually adjust slider everytime.

Excellent review. Very realistic review. I notice everyone just likes to name every new phone is the greatest device of all time. It's sad. I prefer a realistic view. Thanks.

I'm surprised at this one. I have some iPhone user people I know that say they have so many call, connection, and security problems. I still have the Fold 3 and connect to everything better than their iPhones. Maybe the one you have isn't the best unit.

Send the phone back and get a replacement. But have to remember, the internet speed could be your router! If you think it is the phone, send it back. But give it a try at another location.

Got my s24 ultra less than a week ago, and ive had no problems with it whatsoever, went from iphone 13pro max, and i can honestly say the s24 ultra is way better in everything.

Samsung phones continue to be garbage on anything that moves more than 1 mm like a child or pet. I had to go back to the pixel 8 pro because of this

You went back to a device with an inferior chipset and an inability to change basic exposure on screen (without going in and out of an infuriating sub menu), and a truly awful modem, and bad low light video, and a tendency to sometimes over contrast to the point of appearing cartoon like, all because you have a penchant for subject matter that moves by more than 1mm?. Really?...
