Removing charger is the most irritating
Removing Headphone Jack and removing charger was the worst thing.
agreed
Headphone jack not so much unless you need to charge a phone and listen to something at the same time
@@markoroncevic
Using the phone while it is being charged. It is inconvenience caused during calls. Many TWS buds are simply not good enough for calling unless you're buying a premium pair of earbuds. Audio lag while watching videos or gaming is also an inconvenience. Plus, the additional features that they promised for removing the earphone jack was not really promised. For the features that we do have could have also been provided by keeping the jack.
Unfortuantely, Android manufactures have copied Apple in removing the headphone jack and not including charger in the box
That's a way of cost cutting and selling their own headphones like a promotion.
Can you tell me which companies do not give charges
Ik that samsung nothing and pixel have stopped providing chargers , idk about others
@@actuallydragonly chinese brands give chargers. Some times moto - sometimes not.
Samsung provides credit to obtain with their flagships and mid tier and below they provide it, if you're in the business of purchasing flagships you understand this, the history of these phones have been very generous in years past were i had so many chargers it was crazy, I totally agree it should be provided in some form especially for the newbies and at least samsung still finds a way, others don't.
@@TheMrreese24nope, even Samsung budget phones don’t come with chargers, even sub 180 dollars phones
This video does clarify a lot. You stated obvious facts and truth. Well done bro
65 watt is a sweet spot for fast charging.
100 watt
@@modestman6753
Nah, too much.
I prefer 69 😂
I would say 50 - 55 w would be good as it keeps good balance between battery charging speeds and battery health
I'm using 25w samsung charger, and I dont see the hype around charging at all.
Sometimes you really need it
But most times you don't, and people don't go change the setting every time. Could be worse for the battery as well.
You have sockets on bikes and cars anyways. And you have sockets elsewhere to charge too.
To me, im surprised the camera is even improving in flagship phones in the first place, otherwise i don't really see how s24 is so much better than the s10 or how the new iphone 15 pro max or 16 next year will really be that much of a stop forward compared to the iPhone 11.
Most stuff is in software now too, and even that seems to be stagnating.
iPhone 15 base model vs Oneplus 12 vs S24U.. which one to go for.?
S24U
Such a great video mobi
Can you review vivo x100 ultra vs s24 ultra fully deep and detailed comparison
High charging speeds and big battery are my priority number 1...I am sick of apple, moving to OnePlus for my next device.
I agree with you, the 13 mini battery is driving me crazy, and I can't wait to move to a phone with 100W charging.
I moved from oneplus to apple and I regret it 😢
@@Petrolhead11 nice after typing for long time, it wouldn’t let me post my comment cuz you deleted yours haha
I am gonna cry !
Massive thank you for making this video, and advising us what to watch out from all the tricks Manufacturers play to Customers
Man are you the the best tech youtuber in town!💯 just love your content. It's so true, unique and different from every other typical tech youtuber. We can actually relate to you alot more! Lot's of love and support bro✨️
I appreciate that!
This is why am subscribed to your channel
Great feedback. Thanks and please do continue with such educational Videos.
I often hear people saying 8K video is a waste of time. Imagine recording videos of your children growing up, or another significant event in your life that you will definitely view in the future. A future when 8K becomes the norm. You will then be very pleased that you recorded the event in the finest possible detail at the time.
How many videos can you shoot and load on your internal memory, which is not expandable? This is not really practical.
@@seyedaskar Simple, just upload to the cloud or transfer to a PC or external drive. In the end, it's a feature that I would rather have on board.
Perfect info
our eyes can easily tell difference between fhd+ and qhd.
we notice more in text being sharper and clearer.
when i switch from qhd after using for whole day to fhd+ it always feels like text look blurrier
Which phone you have bro?
@@athulkrishna9114 now using xiaomi 14 ultra
That's something very subjective. I didn't notice the difference on my S9, so I got the S21 and was just as crisp to me. Now I have the S24 Ultra and still run in on FHD+ because at the distance I use my smartphone it just doesn't make a difference, except in battery life.
@@nikhilt3755 I have s21 fe my friend has s20 ultra if I have to compare both, in gaming terms if my phone has anti aliasing set at 4x then my friends is at 6x
Yes sir You're right about that it's crispier cleaner sharper and it's easy on the eyes I don't know why he's telling people that, who's he trying to campaign for the iPhone cuz it doesn't have high quality display like Samsung One Plus and other phone wow
You Are Making Tech Better 😄
Excellent video, Mobi. I agree completely with what you're saying. I plug my phone in every night, so charging speed doesn't matter. And I don't understand wireless charging; is plugging in a cable once a day really that much of a burden? I'm no Ansel Adams, so I don't need a super fancy camera. You can buy an 8K TV here (for about $10K) but nobody makes 8K content, so you'd only be watching your own videos. I am rarely, if ever, in a situation where I can't see my screen because the sun is too bright. And if it is, I live in a city, not a desert, there's always some shade available somewhere.
If I wanted to be dazzled by BS and pay 10x what a phone is worth, I'd buy an iPhone.😁
Thanks to reviewers like you, I now look for value in things like update support, longevity, processor performance & reliability.
In the long run, that stuff matters the most and determines value for money.
@@mobiscrub Please fix the title.
Perfect!
Hi....thanks boss for your tips....
Curved displays won't be a durability concern if only every other smartphone brand use Huawei's Kunlun glass and xiaomi's dragontrial glass🙏
The dragontrial glass he is referring to is the one found on the xiaomi 14 pro that is 10x stronger and more scratch resistant than regular glass
Glass is glass and glass can break....
Agreed with all the points you mentioned above, but the charging one . I really need fast charging
Great content. As for curved displays. I have the s23 ultra, and it's in the UAG MONARCH PRO with the Whitestone dome film screen protector, and the phone dropped on a hard floor, with no damage to the screen or case or camera. Curved or not. If you protect it properly you should have no problem.
Great video mobi the facts are spot on,, I have a question can you please make a video comparing iPhone's ProRes and Samsung's 8K video it will be much appreciated.
Hey, iPhone's ProRres and Samsung's 8K video are completely different things. ProRes is about capturing more dynamic data while shooting videos while 8K is just a higher resolution recording format. ProRes footage is more flexible considering the dynamic data involved - and so it can be color corrected to look a certain way that the editor requires. 8K on the other hand is meant for higher resolution playback - that's all.
I LOVE CURVED DISPLAYS I HATE SAMSUNG REMOVED IT AFTER YEARS OF LEARNING TO USE IT
I also but flat display is more durable 😢
Wireless charging is never a minus . Today brands started offering higher speed wireless charging...that really make sense and is practical nowadays .
I can't differentiate
Screen quality.
Either flagship or either budget 😅
Thanks for this video. But wireless reverse charging is a must for me
The charging speed and batterry life is one of the most important thing according to which I decide to buy a phone..at the moment I am using op 12 😉
yes
I use s 24 ultra and i find my self using 200mp only for landscape but i usually use 50mp 5x which is the best
well, you're amongst the few who actually make use of the stuff you paid for. :)
Charging speed we do need and it really helps. The way my one plus 12 charges, it is a best experience in terms of charging I ever had with any phone including iphones and galaxys of the world.
Love it all truth bro.
Very good video, but I personally prefer 'curved screens' to 'flat ones.' 😊
Agree on wireless charging except for in car use case. Less fiddling around with cables is a good thing in the car.
We need to start a revolution to include charger in the box
Charging speed argument fell flat because yes, we do need charging speeds to be high. With batteries getting bigger, it takes hours for charging your phone. Being able to have the convenience to do it in minutes is a life saver. Yes, we do not need these speeds, but we then ask for innovation from these brands. Let them continue developing these technologies and making it better with each iteration.
Love your comment
He said its not gimmick. Listen to him on this carefully brother 😊👍
If your phone can last all day then no you don't need it. I haven't had to charge an iPhone during the day in the last three years, I can go out all night and be just fine with 50% battery. With my OnePlus Open, the battery efficiency kind of sucks, so yeah I have to use a fast charger.
@superiortoall22 Woooww I had no idea I don't need to charge my phone if it lasts the day!! I always put my phone on charge when it's at 99% isn't that craaaazy :O
@@culthaven5871 then what's the point of fast charging, mouth breather? 😂😂😂😂 Nice try
3:36 High Peak Charging Speed
😂😂😂😂😂
As someone has that is known for having burn in issues with every oled device. Having brighter displays helps because the oled displays have gotten dimmer and the white colors turn yellow like a clear cell phone case that turns yellow. I wish there was an option to have a mini led display on smartphones so the issues like burn in will be eliminated permanently. I treat all the displays the same whether they are oled or a non oled displays and it's guaranteed to have to be have burn in issues with the way I treat every oled displays and the display brightness degrading.
I really need the high charging speed, it changed the way i use a phone.
Agree with everything apart from the wireless charging
Bro pls review realme gt 6. Iam very confused in between 1+ 12r and gt 6
Hi..Hope u are doing fine. Recently i am facing battery drain issue with my S24 ultra and the main reason is Contact Storage. When i searched the internet i came to know this issue has been faced by many people since few years and is not just restricted to Samsung or a particular Device. I dont know whether this is a google issue or what. I have not come across any video on this topic from any youtuber.
I would appreciate if u can figure out the solution to this problem.
By the love your videos a lot
I hate curved displays without a reason UNTIL i got a curved display phone and got a reason... Unintentional touches & looks dark at some angles
I don't think wireless charging is harmful for the battery health as much as the high speed wired charging
The issue arises as most people use third party wireless chargers. If you notice, quite a lot of wireless chargers in cars get the phones to be quite hot.
@@mobiscrub yes that's true !
Fast charge is super important. It's very convenient to know that I needn't charge only at night. In times of emergency it's good to have it. Curved displays are cool too. Never had accidental issues to be honest.
What about new sim recharge plans😢!!
Yes, fastcharging is absolute essential, atleast 30w. Somehow my realme 8 with 30w charger used to charge in 1 hrs, while my S21 Fe with 24w charger takes over 1.5 hrs.
30W is not what I was referring to the video actually.. it was about brands trying to top up a previous brand by being in 100W+ category
Fast charging is especially beneficial when your battery starts to deteriorate. I charge my phone overnight but it often gets really low during work, so without superfast charging I have to wait 30+ mins for my phone to charge back. It would be nice if u could leave my phone for just 10 mins and be back to 70%
I charge my phone while doing work on DEX in the office , so i don't even use the 45 watt charge speed , and both fast and super fast charge are turned off
I had my phone since 2022 and i can remember only 4 incidents when i needed a fast charge
Yeah back cover with matte, glossy are useful because we all put hard cover over it
India should start producing own smartphones.
Just an opinion, yeah, the super fast battery doesn't really mean a lot for a long time, but over the duration of you using the phone, it makes more and more sense, the super fast charging compensates for the battery health degradation, so it doesn't make sense for someone who upgrades every 1-2 years, but for the people who use the same phone for 4+ years, superfast charging makes a lot of sense.
Ooh you've made such a sensible comment 👍👌👌🙏
For 4+ yrs you want a healthy battery as much is possible
Your content is the best at the moment in Indian smartphone CZcams
Please remake this video in Hindi as well so that contect teachers many of the Indian consumers.
BTW 3:39 😂😂 👍
Wireless charging manipulates people because, say, Motorola advertises 50W wireless charging, but because not many people will specifically buy the wireless charger that the company makes, they won't achieve that speed at all.
nowadays flagships won't even come with screen protectors on it, which is the most irritating move
Having pre-installed screen protector is just nice because you don't have to then rush to a store to get it installed. Sometimes, the phone is out and the screen protectors aren't even out yet. So having one pre-applied is definitely a good idea.
Start a petition to include chargers in the box?
With all due respect, Samsung providing Exynos processors in their flagship S series devices, and the Exynos with the biggest bezels in the S24 FE, are the biggest frauds of 2024
Phones with less bezels = mistouch issues....samsung has edge touch app to solve it some extent ...plus premium phones shouldn't have glass back....they should have a more durable material so that it can withstand the longer updates
Personally i think 45watts is the best for battery health and user experience
Do a review on the review on the Huawei p70 pro
don't have it :(
Why it's in Shenzhen china it's wireless charging speed is a whopping 50 watts..
You could also import you know.
Can't apply them on my samsung keyboard even after using keycafe
0:44 The Pixel 8 Pro has 2,400 nits of brightness, not 2,600.
I disagree with the curved display point because the emphasis should be on OEMs ditching glass for a better material that's more shatter and scratch resistant.
an example of great durable glass that every smartphone maker should use is Huawei's Kunlun glass and xiaomi's Dragontrail glass. These types of durable glasses will erase durability concerns of curved displays
but rather these brands prefer to use regular displays that are more vulnerable to cracking so that they won't miss out on the profit💵 that will be made by going to replace the screen or buying a new phone when the phone screen breaks. 💵
I don't get why creators hate on curved displays, using it for a while and no problem
Cracking, glare, touches
3:15 🍎 should provide upto 45Watt charging
Sadly they won't
s24 long term review?
it's a solid phone buddy... really!
You don’t get to customize your smartphone
Till then ig this video is for manufacturers more than us…
#mobisrub video is very knowledge.... but these kind of gimmick trends will continue with brands.
Main point is not a single company is actually changing anything they are just playing number games with their consumers.
QHD versus full HD there's a big difference between slow charging versus fast charge another big difference, I use that everyday, 8K video vs 4k another big difference it's much crisper clearer and easy on the eye same with the QHD versus FHD it's much easier on the eye so these companies that are put it there it's all good reason, I'm so sorry if you think that's they are gimmicks or the company is fooling you only you alone see that way I'm so sorry you think that way
also if they add one name to any feature 500rs increased...lol im happy that i choose 20k device rather buying that 1lkh rs phone with no charger...
All people in the world wasting money on smart phones😢
I've had a curved display phone (oneplus 8) I've never had any problem with it & I like it so much. Actually I can't buy a non curved display now 😅😅😅
curved screen glare, non availability of tempered glasses and collection of dust around screen protectors are facts.
Why no one is speaking about this, the faster, the phone Recharge impact the screen on Time, I have faced this many times. If I charge my phone with 5 W. It gives so much of screen on time, then compare to 20 W charger.
In other words, better for battery health.
Is wireless charging truly harmful to the battery ?
Yes, due to power loss and power fluctuation.
67 watt is more than sufficient..
2 in 1 vlog😂. Bad for nothing and good promotion for others😂
Do you think still worth s22ultra in 2024
Depends on how much you get it for

At last someone who understands why curve display on a phone is stupid.
I personally use a Nothing Phone 2 and I completely agree with what he says about the Nothing Glyph lights
Same shit with different marketing names. 😂😂
The biggest crime is to put exynos in flagship phone....
You mentioned about curved screen getting damaged when fallen or accidental touch issues..... Does oneplus 12r has the same problem bcos i think 12r's edge is minimal compared to moto edge phones.... What's ur opinion?
One minus is trash
@@DENVEROUTDOORMAN yeah but i was talking about one plus

Suggest me good phone under 70000
‘Of course’ s23 ultra
Hi bro do a camera comparasion for smartphones under 40k
Nope they are garbage
S23 fe is nice
Like OnePlus 12r , realme gt 6 etc
@@DENVEROUTDOORMAN bro like OnePlus 12r , realme gt 6
120hz and 144hz are easily recognisable
that's not what I'm saying..I'm saying the addition 24 Hz between 120 and 144 is not significant. Between 120 and 144 Hz, normally, people won't be able to tell the difference.
Stop lying
Another problem that Android manufactures create is eWaste as they stop updating the phone after a few years old making the phone obsolete or vulnerable since it no longer gets security patches
Like China phones
Samsung and Google gives you seven yrs of updates on their flagships now
Can you show us about Nice Catch please??
It's when outfielders make a great play
Just buy Sony Experia 1 VII and chill
And brother u say ios is better than android right is truh right
Smartphones have peaked.
These things are just to make the phone attractive and this is enhanced by tech reviewers
Well, smartphone innovation has gotten slow. I don't believe smartphones have peaked. We thought smartphones had peaked until foldables came out... then rollables... and things will keep getting better. It's just that the focus these days are on trivial features that don't really add as much value to actual user experience.
And you guys will take that to next level...promotion...and will do a random video in an year and will do some criticism...😂😂😂😂
Iphone 15 or 16 with AI?😊
Android phone manufacturers like to advertise what makes their phone better than others - too much hype
the megapixel part isn't a scam. actually in pixel binning technology, it helps a lot if you have more pixels to bin meaning you have a cleaner shot plus stacked hdr and secondly more pixels mean you can record 8k videos. finally, its especially great when you want landscape/architectural shots that require lots of detail.
8K Only good if you spend huge money on a medium that can display 8k...and not a bid difference unless if you don't have 8k display
@@DENVEROUTDOORMAN it's not just about displaying the video, it's about cropping in getting a tighter shot especially if that's the only shot you have making it versatile.
I am not saying that the use case does not exist. But it's just isn't something that many people will use. Millions buy a phone and not 0.1% of them will ever tap that 8K button or even know about it. But do note - the R&D cost that is part of the retail price will be borne by all customers. All I'm trying to say is that for those rare 0.1% of users who will sometimes use a single feature, it doesn't make sense to increase the cost for the bulk of the users.
@@mobiscrub I bet you if apple does this, everyone will be using it. everything is a gimmick and overrated until apple does it. honestly I love android because these things exist. and trust me if someone buys a flagship rest assured they use 8k and 200mp shots. no one buys phones that have these features if they're not going to use it, it's the main selling point.
@@BLAKEEATS1988so you believe everyone that buys a flagship Android know and use these features ? ( 200mp , 8K etc.. )
Remove what us needed and give what's not important.
I prefer a curved screen and can't stand a flat phone. I don't even know why this is still a conversation point.
You know, flat phones have accidental touches as well.
Apple paid a lot of people to degrade anything and everything that's not an iPhone. Think about it for a min.
The issues I described with curved displays are genuine. Accidental touches can happen with flat, but there are more probable with curved. It's also a fact that you don't find as many tempered screen protectors, they are more likely to crack on a fall and they do reflect glare on the sides. These issues are much less pronounced with flat displays. It doesn't mean people can't prefer curved displays for how nice they feel in hand and how good they look... But functional issues like the ones i described are real
