[@cmoody1906]

Same here I've literally got a new one every year but skipping this one

[@SamtheStoic87]

The removal of the Bluetooth S Pen from the Samsung S25 Ultra reminds me of what happened with the GoPro Hero 12, where GPS was removed but then brought back in the GoPro Hero 13. It seems like a strategy some tech companies use to create a sense of 'added value' when reintroducing features that were intentionally removed in the previous model. This approach can mislead customers, making them feel like they're getting something new and important, even though it was there all along.

[@kimaniharris7922]

Thats what im starting to think. they claimed their data showed that people didnt use it, but Im calling BS

[@wmurch3]

same thing with the rotating bezel on their watches. they took it away and then brought it back after popular demand 😂

[@mehshutup3041]

Samsung used to do that too, the removed micro sd on galaxy S6 and bring it back on Galaxy S7

[@Broodjemetbeleg]

Lol, that's why they waited for the s25 u to put in a 50mp wide angle 🤣🤣

[@onlinecomment]

Most people dont upgrade for 4-5 years before getting a phone. Guess they know s20-s22U people are not jumping the ship just yet and new customer base isnt as tech savvy as previous generations, so they wouldnt even notice things that were removed or missing.

[@CardBreaker9]

I wanted another note 20 ultra, but open box on ebay they were basically the same price as an open box s24 on marketplace. So i got one, which felt BORING. But I gotta say, it's smooth. Man it's smooth. My note 20 ultra was a solid phone troughout. Loved it more than I love my s24. Miss the USEFULL version of the s-pen, and my curved display along with the telephoto lens. The s24 might be smooth as hell, but it's too... appleized. Like they washed off the galaxy personallity off the phone.

Hey Flossy. Thanks for this overview and comparison. You're right about the trade-off about processing power with mid range phones. I've been behind on your videos and just noticed you now have over 2M followers....Wow!

[@Saltytoxico]

White shoes purring keeping me calm as i watch samsung murdering the Ultra!

[@michaelgrace4547]

Floss does the reviews properly this is the review I've been waiting for and decide, but I think ill stick with my 24 Ultra this year I love it. Salute to you Mr Floss!!!

[@RealJacksonPlus]

Always an honest review and that why you and shoes are the only youtubers I trust with tech.

[@MrElly2k]

what happened to the real review video?

[@akumaakeldama]

On the s24 ultra, man i use the s pen so much. Ik how people say its a gimmick or some people dont use it, but a lot do. Imo i like the box design more but thats cause ive always loved the note designs. Anyways, my first comment on this channel but you're always the man to go to flossy. Always love your content over a lot of others Edit: I mainly use summary but i also use note assist and transcribe. Other AI features i dont use as much but i dont think they'll be unused too much

[@redstang70]

And now they removed bluetooth functionality of all things, what in the fuck where they thinking?

[@akumaakeldama]

@redstang70 i know. Who wouldve thought removing one of the best parts of the selling point of the phone was a good idea. I was confused trying to type that lol, i hope it was comprehensible in some way tho

[@DanielJohnson-ot8wj]

Once yall realize it was to force you to get the ring or watch you’ll understand. They dropped the Bluetooth in it because the ring or watch can take pics and what not apparently. I’m currently an Apple consumer and rocking the ultra 2 in black, but man I see all the stuff we missing out on. The S pen is the least of y’all’s worries lol

[@akumaakeldama]

@DanielJohnson-ot8wj trust me, i have the watch/ring and i knew what they were doing. But im not one of those samsung fanboys. I use the google and apple ecosystems too sometimes. I dont own a tech channel or do any informational tech videos but i for sure know my stuff. Also, there are quite a few people, probably to your surprise, that actually care about the s-pen. What i was looking at, wasnt a viewpoint of people having the watch, just the phone. Id also like to inquire as to why you're bringing up the ring? The ring doesnt do anything other than health tracking. I hope you are aware of that and that the ring can not act as a remote shutter button

[@redstang70]

@@akumaakeldama i forgot about the ring, yeah it can do pictures too which is cool. I dont have the ring though

[@Exclusionz]

The review I was waiting for 🔥

[@alfriday2087]

Canceling my order and trade in from s22 ultra. No Bluetooth spen is wack. Can they somehow update this mess up.

[@wbrcflyer]

Wow, I'm now going to do the same. 😢

[@HoldTheDark-o8e]

Naw. It'll probably never be on another Ultra again.

[@850Tech]

Hey man did you make the Full Review of this ? Coz I remember watching it today and it suddenly disappeared

[@vanheskey3052]

Yeah,i've watched it halfway thru & going out to buy some food.When i got home the video dissapeared! Can't find it at all

[@850Tech]

@@vanheskey3052 well there you are. I was wondering whether I dreamt of watching it at all. My my what's going on

[@850Tech]

@vanheskey3052 something is off today. This is the 3rd time I am replying to your comment and it also seems to. Disappear in to nothing. Maybe the galaxy AI is taking over lol 😆😆

[@vanheskey3052]

@@850Tech I guess yeah 😅🤣

[@michaelferguson364]

Love your channel!!!! I am a fan for life

[@FlossyCarter]

Thanks brother

[@ruiner101]

I use the s- pen practically everyday. As a control and to draw. I draw on it almost everyday. I agree, bro. That down scroll is where it's at. It reminds me of my old HTC. The only time I use the AI is to render my drawings. I don't really find it too useful for what I do.

[@miket.9172]

Just sniped a S24 ultra at half price last week. So glad I basically got a S25 ultra with Bluetooth pen and saved serious Ducketts!

[@Stickyfingerz98]

Where

[@jinvid]

Yeah, I'm gonna start doing that. Stay a generation behind because they're not always the best upgrades from year to year. Phone companies should create a new phone every 2-3 years. Cause it's becoming more expensive and less and less worth the upgrade. I mean c'mon, $1300!?!? They lost their minds! I can get a folding phone for a couple of hundred more.

[@GMcClendon89]

Thank you for being the best at this. None of the "big dogs" have gone into details like you have. Unbox and settings review should be the standard! Idk why these other guys think opening the device and calling it a beautiful device is enough.

[@makailahhackett]

If I'm being completely honest, I think it's honestly crazy that tech companies are coming out with phones every single year. Like, you know they have to be dragging it out until there's actually new innovation and discovery.

[@DjangoGroen]

Why? You can also wait until you think it’s worth it

[@cjh156]

You say this but goofies gone buy it regardless, and like they say if it makes dollas it makes sense.

[@mikerosoft1009]

Not everyone buys at the same time. Some people are upgrading from a Galaxy S9, others are upgrading from an S24. Then there's people who have an S24 and complain that there isn't a big change, well you don't have to upgrade and maybe the phone isn't meant for you.

[@makailahhackett]

@@DjangoGroen Yeah, you can. I just think it's extremely excessive and unnecessary at times. This is mainly because it's hard to believe that they keep "having a problem with specs" every year when they can just basically have everything the people want/need. That's why we aren't "as advanced" as China because they just keep dragging it out year after year. I bet in the far future they will have custom phones, lol. Build Your Own Phone (BYOP) with the specs you want and need. Or maybe not Idk.

[@DanielJohnson-ot8wj]

The upgrades are for the fogies who are still rocking an iPhone 6 and what not. Some people hold on to phones forever before they upgrade.

[@Facu1ty1855]

I was watching the real review at 6.30 am. Had to pop out for a couple of hours and put it back on when I got home to watch the remainder. And now it's gone. Sammy must've seen it, I'm guessing and not happy, lol. My titanium jet black is due to be delivered in an hour. Sammy gave free buds3 with all the ultra models except for the jet black one. I'm on the phone to them now, threatening not to take my delivery if I don't get them. I'm really happy with my S23 ultra 512g, but I like the new design of the S25 ultra. I hate the horrendous camera rings.

[@ettcha]

Ok, so I wasnt hallucinating! Saw it on my homepage and made a mental not of it and the runtime, but now that i had the time, it was gone. Hope its down for a small correction and not scrapped totally.

[@Facu1ty1855]

@ettcha welp, I've just refused my delivery 😆😆 saved £662 pounds and a very capable S23 ultra 512g! Trade-in deals in the UK suck. They offered £413 for my S23 512g ultra, whereas the lesser 256g models get £476. Make it make sense lol. They unexpectedly and maybe deliberately ended my call after an hour. They were flat out refusing to give the free buds3, that they give for free with the other ultra colours. I stood firmly and honestly feels like the correct decision. Those camera rings are horrendous! Looks much better on the S23/ S24 models. And I still can play with handy air gestures. It'll feel brand new with one ui7 around the corner. Really don't feel as I've lost out here.. 🍻

[@tonyswag3290]

I seen you at the pop up shop in NYC earlier today. I wanted to say what's up but you was in and out of there quick! I was wearing the camel coat with the suit if you remember. I was also gonna ask if you was there to pick this phone up. Good Shit! 💪🏾

[@albertarbelo]

Been waiting all day for this.

[@GreenEggsAndGraham]

Mayn, dint no one talk about gemeni and the pay for AI, on embargo day.. flossy on the honesty? The reason we all subscribe!

[@whitepaws2485]

Watched you since note 10 plus 5g, upgraded to s22 ultra, now pre ordered this fine s25 ultra, well worth the wait 👌

[@pinoyuc]

Wished they never got rid of sd card. Bring it back!

[@joslu80eight5]

I got the s24u because of you, i got it the 1st week of December, knowing the s25u was coming out in January. Most would say I should've waited, but something told me the S25u would have changes and id be missing out on what i love about my s24u, personally i love the square shape of the phone, of course when i held the s24 pro , i was like damn this phone feels nice, but like in your s24u video when i held this phone I felt like a boss. This is a boss phone like you said!! Also , I, too, love the S-Pen! From taking selfies, to note taking on home screen, love it! I think you said I wouldn't need to upgrade for the next 7 years with this phone and that was perfect, not much of a upgrade every year guy. Shout out white shoes!!!

[@camicastillo3941]

S24 pro? Um 🤔 🤔 🤐

[@joslu80eight5]

@camicastillo3941 meant to say the plus lol

[@Reed325]

Ain't worth it lol

[@stremsniperisbest5728]

If you're coming from the days of the note 10 then this probably isn't for you. The value of flagships just isn't there anymore, price to performance is awful because you aren't paying based on the price of the components they use but rather based on how much they think they can get away with charging.

[@Mashamazzi]

@@stremsniperisbest5728 well my last phone purchase was the iPhone 13 Pro Max, so I’m not new to the nickel and dime era of tech (also, as an Australian we’re taxed to all hell on most things so you get used to it) I just thought it might be time for an android upgrade, but now I’m not so sure lol

[@Yos115]

It's the same as the S23. If you want a better phone get a Chinese brand.

I'm sorry for your loss & I pray the love can ease a nano amt of your heartbreak & loss. Brothers have a special bond that is unmatched when compared to other male relationship. It's that only other male that you don't have to have your guard up or be ready to tumble! Again, sorry for your loss brother!❤🙏

Thanks brother, I really appreciate it 🙏🏽

[@imp7762]

I think upgrading every Year is over defenitely. In my opinion upgrading every 4 or 5 years is absolutely enough for flagship devices.
