My thoughts on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra vs. the Moto G Stylus 2024, and while it's clear the S24 Ultra is the much better device, not everyone needs the extras it offers. If you can save yourself over $800, why wouldn't you if you're honest with what you need out of a phone?

Not the blowout you'd think when you consider the price.

[@bricequirl]

Today's luxuries become tomorrow's necessities. I think this comparison is SO valuable (and refreshing). If you really stop & strip down what you use a phone for, the $400 budget phone accomplishes the same core things the $1300 ultra premium does. It's only on these corner cases that the +$900 begins to bare some marginal returns. One of the hardest things in life (and it's becoming increasingly difficult with a culture obsessed w/ being excessive) is differentiating between what you WANT & what you NEED.

[@StevealiciousTech]

Definitely, and a lot goes into it, a fear we won't have it on the off chance we need it, people not really knowing about certain devices and features, etc.

[@Trelitzahit]

Very well said

[@anthonylawson518]

I left Samsung Flagships and went to a Samsung midrange ..loved it...but I had Motorola back in the day and I really love the Carmel Latte color...not gonna lie. But it is a smooth device and I'm having a great experience with it. Fits my needs better.

[@yanvega6616]

I want the best camera and Samsung does that. Motorola doesn't

[@TechnologyMan9575]

Excellent illustration Delicious Steve! You've about convinced me!

[@StevealiciousTech]

Thanks!

[@abhinandanbanerjee5471]

I used to have the A23. I "upgraded" to the S24. Pictures are way nicer. Its also great to be able to type this comment while holding the phone in one hand, apart from that, is the S24 better than the A25? Barely

[@StevealiciousTech]

It's surprising how close they get sometimes.

[@jejunamja]

You make some really good points and I think you're right I don't think most of us need the top of the line phones we just get sucked in by the advertising and maybe by the camera would be my guest at least that's how they get me.

[@SirDedrick]

A better comparison would be the Samsung Galaxy a 55 or a 35 compared to the s24 and you really won't notice that much of a difference between those two phones

[@chickenandshrimp1338]

Great argument. Horrible support. I would buy it but it has only 1 OS update.

[@StevealiciousTech]

It does hurt it for sure.

[@sharonalley6292]

I was really hoping for a detailed feature by feature comparison honestly. I really like having the expandable memory and 3.5 jack and was hoping to find out if there are other things I might be missing with one or both (like does the moto really not have gps?) and in real world active usage how much difference there is with speed. I'm tired of just hearing a phone is upgraded and better only to find it can't do the basics I've become accustomed to enjoying. I'm using a note9 now that is starting to become problematic but there are features I don't want to give up (like iris scanner). I still really miss being able to use my phone as a remote from my previous one.

[@Litematter73]

Moto Stylus 2024 also has sdcard and headphone Jack. You can buy the phone, legion go, $800 camera and still have enough eat out compared to buying s24 ultra 1tb.

[@Trelitzahit]

Still enjoying my Moto g Stylus 5g 2023

[@IsaiahMusic_]

Same I got mine for free

[@Wayman_Simmang]

You are exactly right!

[@JosephMass]

I just got the moto and you're so right i bought flagships up until a couple years ago but the stylus does everything you need plus more! Hard to justify spending 900$ more

[@shruglord9070]

i was curious as to what the difference is between the two stylus' and found out the g-stylus doesnt have the pressure level count of the s-pen as the s-pen uses acom tech. also the s-pen has Bluetooth.

[@franciscod.s7799]

Nice Timex! I myself bought my first watch recently, a Seiko SND367PC, great value for money as well. Is watches something you talk? I'm new subscriber btw.

Love how you explain things.. and love gsmarena too, keep it up😅

[@tadghcr2175]

Love your coming out with video after video trying to teach people "your preference is YOUR preference." There's lots else I could say, but that seems to be the beautiful core of your channel. Also appreciate you highlighting some of the benefits of Motorola's displays. According to Android Central's Nicholas Sutrich, their pOLED often dims in a more comfortable way to most people. Just like the S24's newest Gorilla Glass reducing glare helps others. It's all about our different needs, wants, priorities, and our choices in balancing those. Shame that there's not customization like with mechanical keyboards. Would love to be able to select what display technology with what glass and so on for the ultimate experience.

[@g.p.v._s.p.o.t5416]

Nice video. I have both and I dare say they are the two best cell phones on the market right now.

[@MrTagalish]

Great video down to Earth video. It's all about what most people really use their phones for versus what they think people will think by seeing a certain phone in one's hand. I don't need a stylus, I still have 10 fingers. I'm currently on a Samsung S20FE from 4 years ago. It's still going strong, and I have it stripped to the essentials that I use. My phone got stolen and I immediately upgraded to the Samsung s23fe.. it was so bloated and daunting the amount of work I would have to do to strip it down to the essentials that I'm use to using or need. Fortunately, my phone was returned to me, and I immediately returned the new phone. Been looking into the Samsungs A series phones or Motorolas for future potential phone options. Budget bargin phone with a good camera and good UI are all I need.

[@LissyRedgown]

I'm happy mid rangers are catching up tbh, now we just need the companies to catch up in the software department.

[@StevealiciousTech]

Absolutely...such a shame, since you'd think that one wouldn't be overly difficult.

[@LissyRedgown]

@@StevealiciousTech Part of me just wonders if it's a move to garner more money because they have the consumer thinking it's a good deal and cheap so they make them a little more disposable and keep you buying every couple years. At that point you might as well chip out the money for a flagship that'll give you 5-7 years of possible longevity depending on how you use it. I've heard of people getting awhile out of these mid rangers but I don't know. Just an observation of mine, I guess.

[@Matcc]

​@@LissyRedgown I mean software upgrades have little to do with longevity of the device. The bigger factors are hardware and how its used. It wouldnt hurt getting more software support but it shouldnt be a deal breaker imo.

[@LissyRedgown]

Not having consistent updates can leave your phone vulnerable though. ​@@Matcc

[@didydota]

Honestly, as a student and work part time, i just get the S22 Ultra for cheap, have the same features including Ai in the 6.1 one ui update, using it to take notes and do work on the go. works great. Got mine 512 gb for around 400$. Looks brand new so scratches and problems.

[@MarcusTurner-db5qv]

Nice video keep up the good work

[@StevealiciousTech]

[@gabgab9417]

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS VIDEO AND I GOT SUBSCRIBED! :)

[@DWtechfan]

This comparison video really highlights how much upper budget to lower midrange phones have improved. And really, you gotta ask yourself, how much phone is enough for you to do everything? I’m hoping Motorola will increase the support on this device or at least will increase it next year. They’ve made a bunch of huge improvements from last year and while 3 years total isn’t a deal breaker, it’s largely disappointing compared to Samsung & Google. Maybe Motorola’s plan is to improve their phones first and then increase support. Whatever the case may be, they gotta make sure to up the support because next year a Stylus phone at $400 with only 1 OS and 3 years of security updates would be unacceptable. It’s bordering on that this year but with the upgrades I can forgive them a little.

[@OMNITEK]

first to comment gets to bash smartphones...lol...excluding Steve...yeah premium vs mi-tier phones are becoming similar

[@devilkazumi578]

It's mostly just ppl with budget or mid tier phones bashing ppl who have the income to buy flagships

[@OMNITEK]

@@devilkazumi578 no no...not the people...the phones themselves lol

[@stevehelgerson206]

Does the motorola have a desktop mode

[@Berlography]

Another great vid, Steve. don't have either of these phones but like your content

[@bricequirl]

Yes, it does! Called Ready For (Smart Connect), and it works quite well. Allows you to connect to a PC or external display to do some pretty interesting tricks like mirroring the phone display, creating a new instance of your phone on a second display, moving files between devices, and even sharing peripherals like a mouse and keyboard between your PC, tablet, and phone.

[@xxxxxeeeee]

Not via USB. Only wireless.

[@Cubano2031]

​@@bricequirl the Moto g stylus only have the wireless option for Ready for

[@bricequirl]

@@Cubano2031 Yep, the USB 2.0 port makes wired Ready For impossible on the Moto G Stylus 2024.

[@Tristin471]

The Moto G Stylus has a headphone jack, SD card slot, and a non-glass back. Glass isn’t premium, glass is fragile.

[@AquaStroms]

I need Stylus for small note taking 😊 That's why I buy s24 ultra

[@TONYK.85]

The man plays pokémon Go ❤ respect ! He's got two accounts 😉 can you split screen on the moto with Go?

[@StevealiciousTech]

I don't know about using two accounts at once. Some phones you can run two instances if the app and software supports it, I think.

[@samdovels1234]

The phone with an SD card and headphone jack wins in my book!

[@Tech-view4]

I have moto g stylus 2022 and a23 5g

[@a1000island]

You pay for support as phones barely change these days That's just the way it is and why iPhones hold their value so well

[@kndawsey]

I use my phone a lot I love drawing and writing poems and I have the Moto g stylus 5g 2024 it's really cool because it's easier to draw with the stylus now I use the stylus for just about everything 😊

[@StevealiciousTech]

It's a neat feature for sure.

[@Gatitasecsii]

I disagree, I think people who want a cheap phone with a stylus would be better off considering a note 9 or note 10. Maybe even a note 20, I think it's already cheaper than this motorola.

[@degenspyzen]

Yeah, the battery would be dead and the oled would most likely be old enough to get green lines and burn so easily, you talk bs for a living for what i see

[@Gatitasecsii]

@@degenspyzen Should've said this comes from someone who uses a Note 9 daily. Battery lasts me all day, screen looks absolutely pristine, the whole phone is like new and I've used it to draw for my work. I bought it as "open box" on ebay, cost me 100USD, and I haven't had a problem with it. But you are free to believe whatever you want.

[@xxxxxeeeee]

This is dumb advise. Battery of those phones are near dead and they don't even support 5G.

[@SirDedrick]

​@@GatitasecsiiI agree but at the same time I disagree so here's what I agree with yes you can find phones for $400 that are old flagships but at the same time you're getting this device the Motorola on a carrier deal more than likely I wouldn't pay the whole $400 for this device but if I can get it for half the price or on a carrier deal then it's an excellent device is the device worth 400 yes I think so but I wouldn't pay that much for it I also want to pay $400 or $300 for an old flagship phone that's about 4 to 5 years old and some of the people in the comments section under your comment or correct in terms of those batteries won't last long I'm pretty sure you get good battery life on your phone but eventually those batteries will go to crap sooner than later

[@Gatitasecsii]

@@SirDedrick no, you can literally get those flagship for way less than 400. Like I said I got my note 9 for 100 usd and idk why the others are so paranoid about updates, or battery when this Motorola will probably get dropped in a year. My note 9's battery literally lasts me all day, and when I don't really use it much it can last me over 3 days idle. Also the processor, ram and storage are definitely much better on the old flagships.

[@mike.4277]

Motorola 🎉🎉🎉

[@degenspyzen]

Motorola has done so much recently and i really think they will become a real competitor with samsung and iphone that makes monopoly and shut down huawei, i think we can all agree

[@devilkazumi578]

I like to have the premium experience and the s24 has 7 years of update

[@WendyLao-hb1ic]

I got my moto today and it's nice

[@StevealiciousTech]

Nice phone for sure!

[@JosephMass]

Same I'm in love with it for the price and if it can play PUBG on HDR extreme with no problems it's good enough for me!

[@morm2173]

One thing the drives me nuts about Motorola is the software. My mom had one and the software made us go crazy I gave her my old a53 and she says it's the best she's ever had. I have the s23 ultra and had the s10 plus from 2019 and the software is no comparison in my opinion

[@GAMIR_SFM]

The 1st minute and im already not liking it. So basically a A15 is the same as a S24+ 🤔

[@StevealiciousTech]

Umm...no? Watching more than the first minute usually helps.

[@GAMIR_SFM]

@@StevealiciousTech You could have used the car analogy. I do get your point though.

[@hassiri]

I sware to god motorola manufacturers don’t use their devices 😂 There is no way they do. The amount of forced notifications just to update makes you feel it’s not your mobile it’s still theirs and they just gave it to you for free. I tried it few years ago and one more time the last year with their flip phone and made my decision I would never buy such a stupid phone
