@AlexGTech 3 місяці тому
I think when watching content they are indeed fine, in fact, they are amazing!! But on the menus and UI it does feel off. some people proper looked at the colour calibratio and found it to be way off (in the 80s in terms of % of accuracy rather than high 90s in some colour gamuts, not exactly sure which one exactly, if it's sRGB or DCI-P3, but one of those at least)

Upgraded from s23 ultra 1TB to the violet ultra 1TB. My phone came yesterday and my first reaction was the screen colors are muted compared to the S23. I disabled the adaptive video and I feel like it's much closer to the S23 now. It hasn't been 24 hours yet for me but I will say it's much snapper. It feels like a nice upgrade to me. I really loved the S23 so this S24 ultra is a really nice phone. I have not even touched on new features yet. The difference in screen is the change in non reflective screen. I think his is why Samsung didn't even talk about this change because there is a little bit of trade off to get the nonreflective screen but I think the benefits out weigh the changes. Thank you for the great reviews!
@amira6405 3 місяці тому
OMG...I have been waiting on your review. I got mine in the mail 2 days ago and I smacked a screen protector right over it because I didn't want to damage the screen. In best buy I was looking at the display models and even when I came home and set up the whole phone...the first thing I did was a side by side comparison with my note 10+. I felt a twinge of shock because I kept looking at the screen like...where is the brightness. I thought I was going crazy. Then I remembered ahhh the anti reflective must be making it look like this! I'm still loving the new experience but it was something that sunk my heart just a bit until I was leaving work today and I noticed the lack of any glare or reflections.
@AlexGTech 3 місяці тому
Thank you so much!! Much more to come and I totally believe you, that is exactly the feeling I got when I started using mine. I want this to be the best phone ever, considering how good the S23 Ultra still is. It seems that Samsung is aware of the issue and thankfully, it seems to be software related. To be honest, like I said in this video, when watching content the screen is probably the best I've ever seen. It's amazing! and that anti-reflective glass is doing wonders during the day, really nice!
@mother0fpearlz772 2 місяці тому
I too, have a note 10+ and am trying to decide between the s24 ultra and the pixel 8 pro. That big beautiful display on the s24 is definitely a draw, as is the anti reflective screen. This definitely gives me something to think about.
@waywardwest 3 місяці тому
Great video Alex. After switching to the ZFold 5 from the S23 Ultra I am very happy to get back to a slab phone in the S24 Ultra. I missed the integrated S Pen and the smaller outer display was what I used the most and it was very frustrating. I think the only thing that the ZFold is better at is the audio. The bigger inner screen was nice and it's going to take some time to get adjusted to this phone. I'm looking forward to getting out and taking some pictures and videos with it.
@samuelmcCaskey 3 місяці тому
Hi Alex 👋 great video as always. I am still rocking my s 23ultra, and it's very great. I haven't even explored all the features, so I will hang on to this phone for the next year or two. I do love the s 24 ultra, and its refinement may be when I ready to upgrade, will get me a s 24 ultra. When last have you visited southamerica?
@Shambley1 3 місяці тому
This phone is far from a downgrade. The opposite is very true. I would say this phone is more of an upgrade than most years. It's almost perfect. They somehow found a way to improve on the s23 ultra. The flat screen, the gen 3 chip, 5x lens, anti reflective screen, battery, ai features, probably more I can't think of off the top of my head. It's the best smarthphone out right now and it's not even up for debate. The thing is a beast.
@stevanb.2590 3 місяці тому
S23U had terrible shutter lag (and many other camera problems) and it's pretty much the same camera software on S24U. Hardware is good, maybe even great, but it's useless if software is not on the same level. Phone that can't take a proper picture of moving subject in this price range...well I doubt is smart choice to buy.
@jahalang0112 3 місяці тому
Noticed straight away that colors in UI are washed out, and in settings swapping between standard and vivid doesn't make any difference. When watching content I dont see any difference to s22u I have. Also, seen on Samsung official forum that Samsung is aware of it and working on patch. To me it doesn't make huge difference, but for a lot of people it does, so hope patch will come soon.

I'm getting the titanium yellow one sometime in the next couple days and I'm pretty excited to compare it to my S22U and OnePlus Open. As far as the color vibracy I'm assuming that's the trade off for the anti refkective screen. It's kind of the same on the inside screen on my Open. And honestly I don't mind taking a slight hit to the vibrancy in return for better visibility in harsh light.

I really love this channel and im loving it more each and every video i Watch . Mr Alex please advise me im a theologian who studies and researches alot , do i go for the 24 ultra or z fold 5
@AlexGTech 3 місяці тому
Thank you so much for the kind words! It's a tough one as I love both devices! It's almost like choosing a 'favourite child'. Extremely hard. I would say for reading and researching the Fold will provide a better experience, like a mini-tablet. Although the new features of the S24 Ultra will also help you by summarising text, like giving you bullet points of important aspects of a document, as well as having that circle to search feature which may help if you want to find out more about a symbol or a picture you see in your research. Tough one, but right now I am leaning towards the S24U!
@SkeeterMelody 3 місяці тому
Alex, I always appreciate your honest opinion! Outstanding video, thank you for the side-by-side comparisons. I like that writing assist feature and sound quality. I thought the audio was very good even without the pro quality mics. You mentioned listening through earbuds what earbuds are you liking these days? I've been looking to get a set. Thanks again for quality well thought through and produced video.💯👊
@AlexGTech 3 місяці тому
Glad you enjoyed it Don and I agree, the audio is incredible even without proper mics! I have two pairs of earbuds, one from Soundcore and one from Apple. I like the Soundcore if I am doing something like going for a walk / exercising, but prefer the AirPods Pro (the most recent one) if I am jus tat my desk or at home. Mainly because they fall off very easily for me, despite the different eartips. Audio quality the AirPods Pros are extremely hard to beat unless you spend a bit more

@leetronix 3 місяці тому
I enjoyed your honest take on this and not playing to the 'narrative' like a lot do. And equally good that you based a lot if these points on what your subscribers wanted to know on. My main thought or what I took away from this was if you have an S23u I would not definitely not upgrade. I think the AI is interesting but for me thats where it is still but not a must have or need ti have service and i would certainly not subscribe to that in the near future. Camera seems meh its all the same old etc but i did feel the colour depth did wash out considerably IMO and seemed too or over contrasted, granted i am watching this on a UKposts upload so I accept it could look better. Great feedback Alex and very enjoyable and easy to understand and take away a lot of interesting after thiughts 👍

Nice video. Can the colors get fixed with a software update or it cannot due to the new anti reflective screen?
@AlexGTech 3 місяці тому
I am honestly hoping they can fix it with update. My theory right now is that the UI colours are calibrated with previous models in mind. The new display is definitely changing how colours are seen so I am hoping they can update the calibration of colours, especially for the UI. For content, I am finding it excellent though. In the clips I shared here, I am still amazed at how bright it can get and hoe vibrant the colours are. Same with photos, videos taken on the device itself, it all looks amazing! It’s mostly the UI for me…

The lag is definitely gone in 'regular'photos. I do still see a sligth delay in 50MP and 200MP but considering what we are asking the phone to do, the slight 'half a second' or whatever it is, may be acceptable. I need to do more test on this though 👊🏼

Upgraded from Note20 Ultra to S24 Ultra. I also liked the old curved display better and noticed the saturation issue as soon as I started using the S24. Four days into it, and I hardly notice now as I got used to it. I only change phones every four years, as for me, I see any big advancements in phones happen in 4-5 years. Note20 Ultra was rock solid, and the battery started draining fast, even though it was a new one. That was my only issue, which made me change to S24. I could have pushed for one more year, but hey, got a good exchange price and changed it. I hope Samsung is not pushing updates to older top-end models to make people switch to new ones like Apple did. I felt like that because it was a new battery, and it was like giving me 6-7 hrs tops. S24 Ultra is a powerhouse! Still figuring out the AI stuff, but a great phone regardless! As always great review , Alex!

I have got the violet version coming from iphone 15 pro max and very much in Apple ecosystem but so bored with an iphone i wanted to test the ultra to see if a change was in order. The shape is taking some getting used to when handling and i am struggling to disconnect from the apple eco system. The ultra is growing on me but i just dont know if I can make the leap. The camera is really grabbing me and i love what i can do with the phone. Anyone else run an android phone but everything else apple
@AlexGTech 3 місяці тому
Oh you’re gonna love this!! I came from an iPhone myself last year and haven’t looked back. I tried the 15 Pro Max for a few days after it was launched but like you, I was so bored with iOS. Nothing too wrong with the device, but it felt like the same old thing again… I did a couple of videos on how I managed to transition from Apple into a ‘mixed’ ecosystem, might be worth a watch: - ukposts.info/have/v-deo/iJyQeXqDmW-Js5c.htmlsi=YTxVL3kGR0F1TQXI - ukposts.info/have/v-deo/aZuhmo2spJCXmp8.htmlsi=_iNPMrJon98Pifxw

Alex, I agree with you on the colors being muted. However, I do like it. A little less punchy is fine. Samsung is still best in the business with screens. I love the flat screen. Finally. I think the cameras are going to get better with a future update. Samsung, I think it's finally listening to its users.

I'd say give it a go on store if you are able to. It's the best display I've ever used, honestly. But the UI colours are off. The more I use it for watching content, looking at pictures, etc, the more I realise this is a bug on the UI colours.

Probably too early to tell but my gut feel is that this is not a great deal, considering you’re getting so little for the S23U… I’m not sure you will see the value. The S23U is still such a good device… unless you really need some of these new features, I’d say it’s not worth it in this scenario

So the most common complaint of the 23 ultra is over saturated colour now the range is not saturated enough.... Go figure
@brandonlee7382 3 місяці тому
I use natural colour mode, so I imagine that may be even more washed out as well. Anti reflection is important, but I'm not sure if it's worth the trade-off. I need to see it in person, but either way, I'm happy with my s23 ultra as I should be. I hate how youtubers have overhyped this same phone as last year. Flat screen is the only noticeable difference and that comes down to personal preference and flat screen shouldn't be praised as much as it is because the S6 had a flat screen. AI marketing is laughable as I can already Google search my screen by cropping in on my screen with Google version not sure what Google calls it. S24 Ultra is amazing as it's just a slightly better more refined s23 ultra but that's about it which is better than nothing
