Lifelong iPhone User SWITCHES to S24 Ultra: 3 MONTHS Later

[@PeteMatheson]

What do you think of the S24 Ultra and the Samsung ecosystem? Also, you can get the wallpaper here: geni.us/WALLPAPER_1

[@krskadave]

Samsung's ecosystem is not as fluid as Apple's for sure...I have both. Apple's works better..."it just works"...but I choose my S24+ because my 15PM is utterly boring

[@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

[@marceaugovart6214]

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 🤞

[@michaelhansen9676]

Would love it. I got me self an iPhone 14 pro, but after 1 month got back to Samsung S21 Ultra. Never had problem with the NFC. Like for years.

Android flagships*

[@ariandomiller8356]

I've tried to do the opposite after using android for over 13 years, and I've found the iOS is the main reason I canceled it altogether. It's so limiting that it's frustrating to use on daily basis. No universal back swipe or button, no clipboard (VERY important for me), app settings aren't intuitive, can't split screen, notifications are horrible, and so on. It's very stable yes but it's severely lacking behind android in terms of UX and features.

A closed mansion is always safer/simpler than the actual outside world- That's how I view ios vs Android.

[@tomasvircik3742]

I feel the same coming from Huawei p30 pro 🤔 Like I went back to 2015 or so by buying Iphone 15 pro max. But, I'd say it depends on the personal preference now. But still, iphone is stealing money from you by missing out on everything android os is capable of compared iOs.

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.

[@GabrielHernandez-br5qk]

And about the custom notification sounds I believe that's a dev issue, I've noticed a couple of my apps do have a custom sound and it's the same one on my iPhone

The ability to swipe down anywhere on the home screen to get the notification panel is part of the Samsung UI as well.

I had the same problem with NFC like you in the beginning when switching from iPhone to Samsung.

If you hold the phone horizontally instead of vertically which you do now, it wont fail. It doesnt for me anyway.

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

[@mrmossimop]

There's no longer a waiting list to join Beeper

[@redstang70]

I used a 14 pro max for work for 12 painful months then switched back to my pixel 7 pro. I don't know how people stand using the iphone if they also have used a flagship android phone...absolutely baffles me.

[@St5phan]

18:00 Pretty sure it's up to app developers to implement custom notifications sounds for Android

[@TrentonMatthews]

Under notifications and advance settings under the settings screen. He needs to go over to the option marked "Manage notification categories for each app", Notification categories menu will appear on the notification settings screen for each app.,

[@PeteMatheson]

It is, but they did it for iPhone so mad they're not on android too?

[@PeteMatheson]

Done this already - on the 24 they're hidden under advanced settings and and like the ring example, they just don't work unless you spend ages customising them yourself :)

[@JustSomeGuy009]

FYI, google does notify users if they see a password has been compromised. It's happened to me in the past.

[@lbeetech]

What about a Samsung watch? You have to use Samsung Pay. There is no trouble, what are you doing? It could be the devices that you are using, the phone is solid...

[@DougSawyerDoug]

On Samsung watches you can use Google or Samsung Pay

[@leisurefarm]

even as a primarily samsung user, and secondary iphone user (due to certain apps), i must say apple customer service has always been delightful, while i cringe just at the idea of visiting or calling samsung service.

[@Dreadpirateflappy]

Samsung has more features, but as you said the Apple customer service is literally miles ahead. same with Applecare+ compared to Samsung care. I just couldn't go back to Samsung and risk having to use their customer service again.

[@hassiri]

After sales services, keychain, apple pay , recording videos , sound quality eco system , and night photography are way better on iphone. It’s frustrating to see reviewers try not to hurt android users feelings .

[@Abood93mhd]

I switch to the s24 ultra last week, wow! It's a crazy phone. It's perfect

[@aubinbaldonado]

16:37 interesting, here in Latin America I have no issues with NFC put it close to the device, works all the time, also with my Samsung watch

[@JustSomeGuy009]

Your experience with Apple is NOT normal for most people. Most people get absolutely destroyed by them.

[@FrancisSyCoCo]

Hey pete, pls answer, so do you think picking up the s24 ultra is bettwr over those other chinese brands that brag their cameras? I do have the 24U as well

[@PeteMatheson]

They all have their benefits. I do think the S24 or Pixel 8 are definitely the stand out android devices this year

[@DougSawyerDoug]

Of course and China steals your info

[@jorgemarinhoferreira9981]

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

[@Yigitcanakkas]

I store my passwords in google and i do get dark web monitoring for my passwords integrity.

[@PeteMatheson]

Ah yep Google does via Chrome, but it doesn't work outside of Chrome which is no good for me.

[@EnterSpacebar]

@@PeteMatheson It definitely does work outside Chrome. The Google Password Manager has been made into an independent app for a while now. Better yet, switch to Dashlane. Top notch security, endless features, dark web monitoring, password quality notifications, repeated passwords notifications and free Hotspot Shield Premium included.

[@Yigitcanakkas]

@@PeteMatheson Alright i need to ask, what are you using instead? :)

[@hisinddjsomnsl]

​@@PeteMathesonIt does work outside chrome too. Chrome is the last browser I go to. The password manager is built into the phone itself.

[@tothbenedek1541]

We bought 2 s23 ultras back then with my dad, he bought the 1T storage unit, I bought the 512GB unit. I've never had a problem with NFC, but my father always has.

[@lucasdepeinder]

Nice shot of the homepod and samsung together and their almost impossible relarionship 😂

[@PeteMatheson]

😆 even worse they're a pair and I haven't used them for 3 months 😑

[@wowmawc]

when my phone broke, I borrowed an old iphone 14 that's not used at that moment just to get by until I do my research and buy a new one. What a painful experience that was. I really give Apple their props for being that great at marketing.

Samsung's Tap to Pay has worked with me without fault on a S20, S22 & S23. Same for my parents on their S22 & S24 Ultra. Tough luck mate.

[@El_Hamzoh]

Apple service is undefeated, my iPad completely froze after updating they replaced it on the spot

[@PeteMatheson]

🥰 Classic Apple!

[@cfranc0222]

I took my iPhone 13 Pro to an Apple Store in NYC, with a digital lens problem. They didn’t know what was happening and offered a change of lens , $200.00. I think they changed they’re minds now…

[@Hhhh22222-w]

This is one thing Android fans ignore

[@vanjadezelic732]

come to croatia and have the same experience :D

[@Dreadpirateflappy]

@@Hhhh22222-w Yep, when my glaxy s10 went wrong Samsung care took 3 months to try and fix it, and in the end told me to just take it back to the retailer. just awful experience. this is the main reason I went to apple, I know if I have a problem it will be fixed the same day.

[@israelen]

I'm a creature of habit. Switching to an android phone would freak me out. Also, compatibility issue with alot of my current apple devices. Would be too expensive to switch

[@Kscherschnapper]

[@luislopez1800]

Pete, I absolutely love your video on the s24 ultra. For a 22 minute video you gave a Time pertinent information I didnt waste anyone's time. I sincerely appreciate it and I'm sure many others do as well. Thank you Sir.

Had a Fold 5 and S24 Ultra and it always plays up at the David Lloyd barriers too, iPhones never have an issue

[@fluidflacka]

Ever heard of the galaxy watch

[@jackofalltrades2175]

I mostly agree with the issues section. However. I have grammarly installed on my s24 ultra without any outside launcher. Moreover, there's a setting that (when you're on the home screen) you can swipe down from anywhere and get the little menu. Small things like that are already built in which is pretty nice

[@rydellthomas1183]

Super weird question but what keyboard skin was installed at 9:53?

[@Rndmnpc004]

Custom made skin on GoodLock app available at Galaxy store but not pre-installed. It's free though.

[@maakaag97]

I also noticed about camera focus, specially when using portrait mode, my friends s24 ultra would be out of focused but my s22 ultra was perfect.

[@bogoss2393]

Heard of samsung watch?

[@gigairaqq7322]

I remember when I had Family Link, and it was a terrible experience. To be honest, it really affected how I viewed Android phones and made my new phone feel less special. Before that, I had an iPhone with nothing restrictive on it, so the phone felt like it wasn’t functioning the way it should. I couldn’t even sign into my Google accounts, which made it feel useless. Before getting the new phone, I wasn't even using it for more than 2 hours a day so I just felt like a 9 year old with all of the restrictions.

Thank fully no one I know uses an iphone

[@camerenabila4407]

I just switched from an iphone 14 pro max to the S24 Ultra after owning iphones since the 4s and its been incredible. Its 100% a way more capable phone. I do also use an m1 ipad pro, mac studio, and macbook air and believe it or not you can still use those devices and own a samsung phone at the same time.

[@infntegaming]

Camera work, well edited with awesome colours sounds, rewatchable. ❤

Thank you very much!

[@jacobshrum9414]

Care plus should give you white glove service. But you pay for apples customer service with being required to buy into the entire ecosystem to get what you pay for.

[@PeteMatheson]

Had care+ on my watch and it wasn't close to Apple. Not the worst thing in the world! But not as good

[@Dreadpirateflappy]

Samsungs care plus is horrific, can still take weeks/months to return your device and even then it may not be fixed. there is a reason it 1 star on google reviews. it's not even comparable to Apple's "Applecare+" where it will be fixed/replaced the same day.

[@Aggressive_Splooge]

I was a lifelong Android user since the first Android phone that came to market. Last year I switched to an IPhone , and of course there are things I like about apple but..... I miss Android so much. My biggest problem with apple is the keyboard to type on is absolutely atrocious. I am going back asap.

[@Wanderingmillenial]

Beautiful phone. Wish Samsung came out with its own OS.
