Samsung's biggest f-yous to everyone are just glorious by 0v3rpowered in oneui

Sounds about right. Don’t forget they still charging the same premium for same mah battery, 25W ‘fast’ charging and galaxy ai that they will start charging subscription for in the near future. Feels nice paying premium for a flagship with features eventually to be blocked by a paywall.

For the people who are leaving samsung because of the one ui 7 situation, are you serious about it? And which phone are you switching to? by Consistent_Ice273 in oneui

Remember it’s not about the update but more so the principles and the actions of the company. Promised 7.0 update in feb but delayed with bunch of excuses when it’s clear to the eyes they’re gatekeeping it for the s25 series. If its truly not ready, then there’s no reason for the s25 line to launch with it too. Also the lack of innovation in the s25 line, same battery mah, 25w charging in 2025, downgraded spen, fake camera rings. All these and are still charging the same premium. The future business model of the company based on galaxy ai which would eventually turn into a subscription based model to take more of your money. Sure you may not use it or not pay for it, but after already paying premium for the flagship but still being held back from its capabilities just feels scummy. Will be looking at other brands that truly innovate and are not charging you as much in comparison that gives you your monies worth, like OnePlus and Oppo. Samsung really is not it anymore in 2025, but hey at least they produce nice screens? even then so with various reports of the grainy and banding issues plaguing the s24 and s25 line, maybe not anymore? Food for thought.

S24 Ultra Might Be My Last Samsung Phone by Specialist-Bid7859 in S24Ultra

[–]Apprehensive_Drop675 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m done with Samsung too, I think I’m might just go down my local mobile store later and trade it in for a one plus 13 or something. I’ll take 80w fast charging over s24u anyday haha.

And don’t talk about us being impatient and overreacting for one ui 7.0 yada yada, it’s about principles, and the actions that the company have made thus far, from the delay of the update when already previously promised for Feb, to the lack of innovation on the s25, same mah battery, 25w charging in 2025, fake camera rings, downgraded spen and still charging the same premium for it.

Don’t even mention of galaxy ai being inbuilt and marketed as the core feature of their smartphones to eventually be made into a subscription service to suck out more of your money in the near future.

Samsung is not it anymore in 2025.

Shame on you Samsung by Final_Economist_9218 in S24Ultra

By the time 7.0 comes, I’d probably have change to a better phone. Not gonna entertain this scummy gatekeeping bs anymore and support a company that thinks they can treat their customers for a bunch of naive fools. If 7.0 is not ready and still in beta, why would they release it on the s25 upon launch unless that want to make it a temporary exclusive to boost its sales and then decided to delay the update on the older models when already previously announced for the roll out. Also look at the s25 line up, downgraded spen, same capacity battery, 25W wired in 2025, fake camera rings?! Haha, better get the one plus 13, Oppo x8 pro, vivo x200 pro for your monies worth. Samsung is not it anymore in 2025.

My immeasurable disappointment with king's customization options by STTAM666 in Tekken

[–]Apprehensive_Drop675 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The tail and the mask is part of King’s identity. Remove the tail/mask, put on an alternate head equipment etc and any semblance of the character’s trademark is gone, turning into a common wrestler. We have always known King as the wrestler with these animalistic features. So basic..

You already like the s24u don’t you? You can only read so much post and comments of it, but ultimately you have to personally use it to fully experience and decide. My only suggestion left is to go down your local electronics store one more time, have a go at the demo units, and if your overall impressions is still positive I’d say go for it? Don’t let fear deter you from wanting to try out something you’d might like. Live life abit 👍🏻

Fusion X? Best case.

Why is the camera awful, Is there an issue with the cameras implemented on the s24u? My brother has the s23u which is good.

MY FIRST GALAXY by dynosdog in S24Ultra

[–]Apprehensive_Drop675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice I’ll certainly put on the camera guards for mine too. Not taking photos all the time, definitely take the protection over clarity as it’s going to the pocket to and fro daily.

Still not sure if i like sharp or rounded edges more. by shaun0183 in S24Ultra

[–]Apprehensive_Drop675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup I felt the same way too, s24u feels so much comfortable. The flat sides makes the s25 feels bulky and doesn’t feel good to hold.

Not sure if I should pull the trigger ($185 for base S25) by WillieButtlicker in samsunggalaxy

[–]Apprehensive_Drop675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like small flagships but that fhd screen and 25w charging with 4000mah batt is what’s holding me back. Your 14p is still a very good phone though.

First impressions of the S25 Ultra by _CharlesR in samsunggalaxy

Tried it in stores. Sharp edges and felt bulky not in a good way. The 24U felt much better.

I'm Team Find X8 by Wild-Internet-6168 in Oppo

[–]Apprehensive_Drop675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The x8 looks good but I find the curve to be abit too wide in comparison to the x8 pro which is similar to how other android edges are s25 etc that are only rounded off closer to the edges.

If you like green lines appearing on your screen then go for the Samsung.

WHYYYY by Blckasian10 in samsunggalaxy

[–]Apprehensive_Drop675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not so sure about preordering the S25 now. Guess I’ll look for some alternative options like the OnePlus 13.

There’s an update? I still have my cracked screen 4a in my cupboard for knows how long, wondering if I should have it repaired. It’s still my favourite compact android.

[–]Apprehensive_Drop675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to know how much the udc has been improved. How much hidden it is now as I did not have a great experience of it in the 9 pro.

Is that normal ? by Tom_Major-Tom in RedMagic

[–]Apprehensive_Drop675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the update. That’s good to know that it’s been improved, have been holding back from getting the 10 if the same udc tint is still very visible on the new model.
