To me the images look 90% almost the same except for the white balance, but that's all on the software side. I mean it's the same hardware except for the five times telephoto zoom, the rest is identical. I think Samsung will also bring the 23Ultra to the same level with the update to 6.1. hopefully they don't intentionally worsen the 10x zoom. So that the 24ultra looks better. It's a shame that Samsung moved away from the 10x zoom, it was unique. instead of improving it and perhaps renewing the 3x zoom with 50mpx for the zoom levels from 3-9

[@akagetobimaru1994]

Yes that's what i would like samsung to do too.... If they put 3x 50 mp it would be more versatile as they can achieve good picture quality from 3x to 9x... The switch to 5x is a dumb move by samsung n it just look like an apple copy cat... The 5x is too far for portrait, the 3x is the best one...

[@Richard-]

S24U really feels more like a S23.5U. Let's hope the S25 will actually surprise us this time.

[@phothewin6019]

People say this every year with every new phone lol. I doubt we'll see big jumps anymore in the world of flagship smartphones.

[@girardjeremie1939]

Yes! We're not necessarily asking for something miraculous, but it would be reasonable to expect that the new phones corrects all the flaws that people have mentioned about the previous phone.

[@befree322]

At least a new ultra wide and maby a bigger main lens

@@phothewin6019 I don't think so. Apple & Samsung are the kings of stagnancy. Other brands innovate much more. Broaden your horizons boy

This is the best comparison on KZbin

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

Check my other comparisons, tnx

[@girardjeremie1939]

The video hasn't changed much! I'm glad to see that the s24 Ultra overexposes less often, but it shouldn't do it at all. I prefer the colours and contrast of the s24 Ultra; it almost looks like a s23 ultra with a GCam loll. Any difference with the 50-200mp in daylight? These modes are champions of overexposure; have they been improved? Thank you for your comparison!!! :)

[@Thanasis.K.]

Are we going to see 4k 120 fps in one ui 6.1. I am asking because the sensor is the same

[@apahmed]

In depth matter of fact comparison... Appreciate your effort...!!!

[@aliknight8419]

I've noticed the s24 ultra has better zoom and reduces the lens flare which is great

[@EdgeTechh]

Please inform whenever samsung fix the s24 series display problem natural and vivid mode or maybe natural display mode will continue whatever

[@neilmcguinness4422]

I don't think the S24 Ultra camera is as bad as some people out there say it is. The colours in your photos were not drab and washed out. The only noticeable difference in these photos and videos was the extra contrast in the videos and pictures on the S24 Ultra. I was surprised that the S23 Ultra was as effective at 5x zoom as the 24U in pics and videos. At 10x zoom all was excellent from both devices, but the stabilization on the S23 Ultra was better in 10x video. There is nothing between these two devices camerawise overall. People will see what they want to see here. It just is nice to see the S24 Ultra performing better on here than on other channels when being compared with the IPhone 15 Pro Max. In three reviews here, the S24 Ultra pictures especially looked AWFUL with poor saturation and exposure problems. It makes me wonder why?.

[@mistraelify]

Well, the real upgrade here is Dolby Vision which is different from backward technology for HDR results to Photos. If you don't have a display licensed Dolby Vision, you cannot see their HDR metadata so you could think it's washed out. But don't fear, there's the sRGB transfer which were calculated originally when taking the photo. So well you will not profit of any Gamut/nits from DV but you have also a really good SDR version. Unfortunately this S24 come with a bunch of new technology so everyone were hyped, but they prefer oversaturated colors instead of all that. And for this you can do nothing. It's like an Apple addict iPhone 10, you ask him to get your S22 Ultra and he say NO Apple is way better for everything even if your S22 is 2-3x better in everything.

[@girardjeremie1939]

I'm also extremely surprised to see how different the results are from a review to another. It's literally not the same phone. I don't believe I have seen such a huge difference from a video (or device?) to another. In some videos it handles the highlights perfectly, and in others the highlights are totally overexposed.

[@aliknight8419]

Finally I've been waiting 2 weeks.

[@heenajain5537]

Sir would really like to k now please rhat will oneui 6.1 bring any camera improvemnt in s23 ultra ??? Plz reply

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

Don't know before it's released...we can only hope and speculate

[@John.Christopher]

So definitely s24 upgrade for night. Daytime is a tossup. Two beasts

[@EdgeTechh]

What about regular s23 and s24 , haptics and loudspeaker has improved or not

[@KhomAsian]

I will wait 1 more year! Still enjoy my Sky Blue S23U!

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

Indeed

[@okeyezeilo6187]

There is one fundamental difference in hardware. The ×5 ST on the S24U is a full stop faster @f3.4 than the x10 @ f4.9 on the S23U. If you're shooting sports (e.g. your kids' school sports) in failing light, that difference is huge...the s23u will struggle to generate shutterspeeds high enough to freeze action...

[@OcEliTe3]

Wow in 10x 4k 30 the s24 ultra is better 😮😮

[@OcEliTe3]

Even at 20x is slitghtly more detailed and sharp the 24 wow

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

It depends, the S23U zoomed video seems to be more stabilized... but yes, kinda more detail on S24U

[@AliMohammed-or8it]

well done great comparison

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

Thanks mate, tried to cover important points re my usage at least.

[@nostalgia9000]

S22 U to s24 U really feels a good update...

[@AMT_Ted]

I would agree. I just did that and I think it's worth it. If I had a 23U I would wait for 25U or even 26U.

[@AKasabyan]

Definitely no need to upgrade from s23u, but good job on the s24. Also, please grow your beard back 😅

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

:)))

[@Epsilion77]

So if you edit the s23 video and if you increased the contrast well it will look similar like the s24 so if you use remastered in s23 the pics will pop like the s24

[@jasonmimms35]

Great comparison, but people forget s23u already had a few updates to their camera.

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

True!

[@TheDeghohun]

So having used thr s23U from the very pre order stage i can safely say is a BEAST. s24u has not improved much that i can say i need to ditch the s23u and jump boat.

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

It`s iterative, yeah.

[@cloaca1234]

Great video!

[@raghunath19876]

I have the s22 u and s23u and i have compared them to s24 u. I could not find any difference at all ...as you said sometimes s23u is better sometimes s24u ...at 8x and 9x may be s23u looked a little oversharpened vs the s24u but the difference was not very much even in 8x and 9x although s23u uses a 10mp 3x telephoto ....

[@mistraelify]

If you have S23 don't upgrade and wait S25.

[@GIGANIGGA_3]

Don't suggest things people may like s23 ultra better

[@Ardituser]

They said will be an update in camera this month

[@RagingBad]

You can Definitely see the improvements on the S24U, specially on the lens flare, and i would say is more like a 20% better instead of 10%

[@befree322]

My s25 spec 50 jn1 selfie camera 200mp 1 inch sensor 50 ultra wide 50 variable 4 to 10x zoom

[@isaquesperandio162]

Because of these reflections from the lens, I think it's time to retire your s23 Ultra and pass it on to hands that take it more lightly than you do. Kkk My S23 Ultra has practically no lens flare... even more so in these monstrous proportions. 😅

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

🥲

[@shakirw100]

The s24 ultra has not received the camera updates yet when the s23 ultra was released we had to wait on a few update to see what the camera can do. It's the same with the 24 ultra fre months from now and it will be a beast

[@stevanb.2590]

Updates on S23U literally did - nothing. Except for placebo

[@pratikdarawadepratik5084]

Do you think samsung has deliberately downgrades the 23 ultra camre expecially zoom photos & videos?

[@VelianSpeaksTech]

I can't confirm it, but also can't deny it sadly...

[@pratikdarawadepratik5084]

@@VelianSpeaksTech Thta means you feel it too try with scene optimizer off it does make a lot of difference to zoom images on 23 ultra & then test for your curiosity against 24 ultra. I am sure it will crush 24 ultra beyond 10x .

[@pratikdarawadepratik5084]

It's as though the scene optimizer adds in additional layer of 'lens fogging' effect on 10 x camera if you know what I mean. Suddenly now when you switch to 10x lens the quality in viewfinder drops drastically & it's like a dirty lens effect is added

[@pratikdarawadepratik5084]

Come next year I am jumping to a Chinese phone! Samsung has become worse than apple

[@Observer8513]

Еще ни один блогер камеру не протёр. Или только умышленно на одном.

[@constellation982]

That is why I went for new S23 ultra. Flat screen is cheaper to produce than the curved one, 5x zoom periscope is cheaper to produce that 10x and titanium frame is the low grade titanium, much cheaper than the one used in iphone 15. In fact S24 ultra is cheaper version of S23 ultra despite having some routine hardware advancements like new cpu/gpu and new gorrila glass (but again not curved). The only aspect of S24 ultra that is appealing is its lifespan of 7 years of software updates.

[@justsmile2636]

I'm waiting for the S25ultra 💞

[@Epsilion77]

Between them they increased the contrast on the s24 the s23 has less contrast so the more contrast the more deep color will pop and it will be darker and crispy

Oversharpened doesn't mean better and the colors on the S24 Ultra did better in most photos

[@akagetobimaru1994]

The 10x is mostly better on the s23 ultra....the s24ultra is good but it has that typical digital sharpening

[@AlwaysHungry.]

This phone is almost 0.1% upgrade

[@GIGANIGGA_3]

Accept it it is better

[@sammyorta]

I just returned my galaxy s24 plus if i wanted a apple phone i would of purchased it smh!So what's the point of vivid and natural when vivid mode is like adding 2% saturation only?? Vivid mode is supposed to look VIVID and NOT NATURALSince Samsung says the color adjustment was intentional, don’t expect the current version of it to change. So if you’re disappointed with the lack of saturation, like we are, it looks like we’ll just have to put up with it unless Samsung changes its mind.

[@space_hiker]

It looks like s23 Ultra 10x zoom is much better. Video is very stable. S24 ultra 10 x zoom looks like it has some kind of buble effect or Rolling Shutter. Seems like they use a lot of ai postworking or something. It is really strange why 5x camera of s24 is so bad.

[@stevanb.2590]

With shutter lag as present as always, none of these two phones are worth considering. Unless you like blurry and ubusable pictures of moving subjects.

[@befree322]

Find x7 ultra or mi 14 ultra look good

[@vildavedo]

Okay, where is the difference? They literally shot same images.

[@lefikai]

There's absolutely no need to upgrade

[@nm-yi4yf]

Sorry, but you completely missed the point. Samsung switched to a 5x lens from 10x to improve the zoom quality above 5x and below 10x, which on the S23 Ultra suffered because it used cropping of the 3x lens. You've included zero comparisons of images in zooms above 5x and below 10x. In zooms of 7x, 8x, 9x the S24 ultra should potentially destroy the S23 ultra...

I don't understand why anyone would complain about a slight lens flare when we shoot directly into the sunlight or street lamps. It gives an atmospheric feel to the photo. I would definitely prefer a little bit of lens flare of the S23U.
