I like the new flat screen design. I'm tired of the curve and not getting full screen protection on my s20 because of the curve. The flat screen is sleek and will provide better protection when adding a screen protector. I think its finally time for an upgrade.

Plus does anybody really care about colors anymore since they live their life in a case😂
Most phones look the same now, especially from the front. Apple has even started to present iPhones face down when you open the box for that reason.

The only upgrade anyone needs anymore is automatic wifi charging so no more plugging your phone in to charge or if they can't do that yet a full charge that lasts over a 3 day period ❤
Pre Ordered the Plus. I feel like it was just the best bang for my buck for my needs. I'm currently using an S10 so this is a HUGE upgrade for me 😂 T Mobile is giving me $500 for my S10 and with the Memory Upgrade Promotion being offered by Samsung, this was a no Brainer for me 🙏

I've made every recommended adjustment, and it has made zero difference in my lessened battery life. And of course, now the ads for the S24Ultra hit hard. Disgusting!!!

IT'S ALL ON THE Z FOLD BUT THE CAMERA!!!

Great videos but unfortunately, the features are only important when the phone works.... I had one of the original Notes. Unfortunately, after my experience with the Samsung Ultra S23, I am not interested in buying their products. It is not just that the phone failed to turn on within a few months, it is how they treat their customers when there is a problem with their product. I was unable to reach anyone, there website cycles back to non-functioning links on the Canadian site. Now the camera is not working and I have troubleshooted all I can do including a full reset. Hours in dealing with all these problems. And being without a phone again, for weeks? This should be a refund/replace situation. Where else can you pay almost $2000 for a product and there is as little responsiveness as this??
Ugh, i love my s23ultra and none of the features of the s24ultra are interesting EXCEPT THAT FLAT SCREEN! its about time they get rid of stupid curved screens.
