What are your thoughts on the S24 Ultra? Check out preorder deals here ➡ howl.me/clrvfOPr4M1 Thanks for watching!

[@jamkutie]

Just wondering about the sim card for s24 - read it was dual sim but you mentioned it fits just one sim card? Is that the case because I pre- ordered and may have to cancel if it's just one sim! Thank you!

[@sinbad128]

It's Definitely just ONE SIM card tray..

Congratulations. I ordered s24 ultra titanium voilet (512GB) and I can't wait.

[@xrk2983]

I got mine in the blue, apparently coming in 9 more days

[@03chrisv]

I pre-ordered the 512GB in black. I got $1000 in trade in credit for my S20 FE through my phone carrier. Crazy deal since my S20 FE was never worth $1000 even when it was new 3 years ago.

[@kaiichinose9590]

The s24U is less reflective because it has anti flare built into the display. It’s not because of it being flat. Nice video overall.

[@tom16888]

if we put screen reflector, is it still less reflective compared to s23u?

[@nickevans3190]

I've ordered the s24 ultra but to me the s23 ultra whites look whiter?

[@kaiichinose9590]

@@tom16888 honestly that’s a good question. Sometimes it may have that effect where it can possibly negate the anti glare, but it doesn’t seem like it’s like a super etched anti glare panel. I think you’d be fine. My phone has never bothered me in the past but I’ll let you know once mine comes in.

[@scottwaterman8837]

Amazing feature that should be spoke more about. Makes the screen perfect.

While I will miss the Fold 5, I decided to trade it in for the S24 Ultra. It's just a more capable phone I pre-ordered it in the exclusive online Titanium 💚 Green in the 512GB. Beyond excited ☺️

[@xxprouaexx]

u made a huge mistake the folding device is amazing i have fold 5 and waiting for fold 6 which will be a huge redesign

I also traded in my fold5 s24 ultra violet 512 GB. I will probably trade s24 Ultra for the fold 6 if it is a true upgrade over f5

So watched unboxing and now time to order it somehow. 😊

[@ataeb]

I got mine too but i have problem i think. Did you notice in dark mode grainy/noise/gritty/sandyish (i am not sure howi can explain i think black crush) on the screen. Espacially it seems with low brigthness and in gray/Green/ dark blue background screens. It is more obvios when you are indoors and dark rooms-no lights. Set your brightness %20-40 and look at the screen closely in dark room Is it because of the new panel or just my screen is defect?

[@DaProperPopper]

Woa! How did you get rid of the spoon in the bowl? What editor/app did you use? 😂 that was my favorite part of this video 😂

[@carerforever2118]

Does it allow you to add a black bar at the top, so that you can't see the notch. My S10+ allowed me too.

[@omynameistaken]

I pre-ordered a titanium green 24 Ultra and I got an email at midnight telling me my phone was on its way and should be here by Friday 🎉

[@Gameinmotion23]

So i have a zfold 4, which takes horrible low light photos. Also, the bending mechanism is already going into a v shape when fully unfolded. Would this be worth upgrading to. i used to own an s21 ultra, but it didn't have an spen at the time. the spen versatility with the cameras is what's drawing me to this phone would it be worth upgrading.

What Bluetooth codecs are shown under developer options?
