If you have to pick between the S24 ultra & iPhone 15 pro max which would you pick?? Also does the iPhone 15 pro max overheat on charging, camera usage & chats?? And how good is the S24 ultra screen now? I haven't used IOS before have been using android for years.

The S24U is the best phone I have owned! I can't get enough of it. I do have an iPhone 15PM and I have always had flagships but this time round I think Samsung have nailed it. I also have the Galaxy 6 Watch, Tab S9 Ultra and Galaxy Book 3 Pro and the ecosystem is fantastic. Oh and I just had to buy that gorgeous Pitaka case too so thanks Alex....much appreciated.

Absolutely. Phone calls, 8K videos, 120FPS videos and Expert RAW shots, navigation can really skew it. Do one or more of those things for an extended period and the battery will certainly take a hit. I just don't remember the S23U suffering as much

I switched from iPhone to S23 plus last year, realised it don’t need to have everything the same brand and rock some Apple products still (iPad and Apple TV which I doubt I will ever get rid of). I always planned to upgrade to an ultra so when s24 range came out I took the plunge. Unfortunately, even though it is an amazing device, it just could not get on with its size, shape and weight, and returned it within my returns period. I was hooked onto the S24 range though and when I researched the improvements on the s24 plus I decided to trade in my 23plus and upgrade. I am glad I did. I know everyone goes on about the chipset but for me it isn’t an issue and the phone works beautifully. I just wish there had been more reviews for the plus version, we don’t all want a brick in our pocket however amazing it is.

I love my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra in grey titanium. Excellent in every aspect for my needs. And case-wise, I have 2 cases. I use the black Samsung 'Smart View Wallet Case' about 70% of the time. It's very strong, well made and not bulky at all. Close the front flap and your screen is protected very well. Also, when the front flap is closed time/date and current battery percentage information shows up through the upper right-hand punch-out. I also have the ESR clear case for the S24 Ultra which supports MagSafe. A very nice case with no display protection. I don't use screen protectors so I prefer using the Samsung case.

Hi Alex 👋 thanks a lot for addressing my issue😊. I will try your method for reseting it. I literally dont know why I'm facing this but yes i have switched from my S23 ultra to 24 ultra via SMART SWITCH. Maybe due to that the problem is raising ? Idk 😅

Been an iphone user since the iphone 4. Never really toyed with the idea to switch. But now i feel it might be fun and refreshing to swap to this phone. Is it easy to integrate everything? And would people actually recommend it? I don’t use any other devices like laptops/smart watches.

I gotta be honest even though I don't regret it it was not easy. I did a couple of videos of the switch and the pain associated with it 😆 but I don't look back. It's still a bit of a mess with my macbook but it's been worth it for the extra stuff on the phone. This video here is a good place to start: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXLGkJR5naiWnZIsi=1lzI8glMvdpE7J_9

From a technological standpoint this phone is amazing. However, from a build quality standpoint it's a nightmare. In my opinion, it's the ugliest phone I've ever seen. The endless right angles adds a lot of bolt to the device and makes it difficult to hold. The curved glass from previous generations is far more ergonomic. Not to mention, curved glass looks far more premium than the flat screen slab Flintstone look. Truthfully, those pointy corners an unimaginative design makes it look like a glass casket. For $1,300-$1,600 you'd think they could design a device that didn't summon up images of a funeral home. Hypothetically, if I were interested in purchasing a modern Samsung device I would skip this and purchase the Samsung Galaxy s24 plus. It's still an unattractive slab but, at least it only costs $1,000. Furthermore, this year it was given some much-needed upgrades in the form of quad HD display, 12 g of RAM and a much larger battery. Unless you really need an s pen and a gimmicky titanium frame this is much more cost-effective. Obviously, that's just my opinion. Others are welcome to theirs.

Here’s my experience everyone: First I upgraded from iPhone 12PM to 14PM, BIG DISAPPOINTMENT, the camera on the 14PM was an absolute piece of garbage; unfortunately I couldn’t go back to 12PM because i gave it away. I was looking at the horizon with the Galaxy S24U, I bought it and after using it for a month, i sold the S24U and I purchased a refurbished 12PM. Why? Well i noticed that yes Samsung nailed it with a lot of features and the camera is years ahead of Apple, the Galaxy is a tremendous beast, but 3b things I experienced and I’m not speaking on behalf of anybody, this is me: 1) some apps just work better on iOS, in my experience banking apps. 2) the keyboard + languages i noticed that is more fluent and accurate on iOS. 3) lags a bit, i noticed that while driving, lags switching in between apps, for example i was using google maps and YT Music. 4) my credit card was hacked.

iOS has many issues for me but I can totally see how it can be the best option for some people. Heck, I preferred it for 15 years 🤣 I'm curious though, why didn't you try the 13PM instead of the 14PM? To me the 13PM was much better
@itsToretto
@itsToretto 7 ай бұрын
@@AlexGTech hahaha totally agreed with you Alex, iOS it does has lots of issues as well, and 1 clear example is also the keyboard, idk if iOS17 screwed it up LOL and base on my experience maybe is because the camera on the 12PM for me was the best, also on the 12PM you have the choice to turn off the HDR in which beginning with the 13 pro series you can’t anymore and that is why i heard lots of people mentioned that the oversharping and overprocessing started with the iPhone 13 Pro line up.

Thanks for the video!! Great answers and always enjoy your work! I changed from the S21 Ultra and I'm an Spen junky so I love how I got a bigger phone that is actually slimmer than my old one in a case that supported the S-Pen. I haven't noticed the screen being any better after the recent update but it is so much brighter than my S21U so it is still a huge improvement. I loved how the camera on my S21 made outdoor shots look great even without editing, but I haven't been able to take enough photos to compare but looking forward to trying it out.
