I've always had an Pixel and iPhone but my iPhone was my primary. December 2022 was a turning point for me when I bought my Galaxy 360 Laptop for work (The Software I use doesn't work on a Mac). I realized how good the Samsung/Andriod Ecosystem is, it's almost comparable to the Apple Ecosystem. The flexibility is a perk and I use Dex on my Z Fold 5. It's connected to an external monitor and I use it like another laptop. I also have the S24 Ultra for work. For personal use, I use the OnePlus 11 and the OnePlus Watch 2. My Pixel Fold is literally sitting in the corner, it's a useless brick, waste of money 😂😂😂. My MacBook Pro is still used for personal use and my iPhone 14 Pro works like a charm. Both ecosystems are awesome and I would urge everyone to use both.
You can license music. There is a whole marketplace to buy A license to use the song in your video with no copyright violation. It's a sign that this fella is upping his video production.
I also went from iPhone promax 14, to S24U and gotta say aside from the greenbubble and side eye from iphone users, I absolutely love it. theres almost no draw back. Everything is snappy, everything works, everything just feels right! I didnt realize how far snapdragons have come honestly and the vapor chamber helps im sure @snapdragon get his man a free ticket he really made me realize what made my s24u work just work.
@@Master.Jedi.Kenobi You dont live in the US and neither do I. But they primarily use imessage, and group chat dont work well with SMS from android, so its acutally problematic. at least it was until apple finally adopted RCS, which was against their own interests.

I even appreciate it when I don't know where I put my phone and simply calling Bixby I'll hear it answer.
So excited to try another Android phone after being on iPhone for the past 2-3 years. Switched to iPhone because I was left out of group chats a lot but with RCS coming to Apple, I think I'm finally gonna get another Android once this phone dies. The disparity between iPhone and Android flagships are so small now. I definitely want to try out one of the foldables if possible
16:18 this part made me want to throw all my apple echo system and go buy s24u sooo bad! , the video is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU AND YEAH U MADE ME GOOSEBUMP.
That's me, I'm the Bixby user. I only use it for quick conversions, quick searches, or just really basic tasks. I don't need to have a "conversation" with it, and for complex tasks, it's better that I just do it myself instead of telling an assistant what to do. For what I use it for, it works pretty well.
Yeah. I decided 8 months ago NOT to wait and buy the S24 Ultra. I choose to buy a sure bet which was the S23 Ultra. 512 GB ROM will be enough for the next 4 years.
Love the intro. Selection of music just PERFECT ❤😮😊by the way the @snapdragon even sounds exciting. By the way I just spotted myself on one of the Pictures. ❤ Great content as always Pete
Im so glad I found this channel. Quality is top tier, interesting content and you look so comfortable in front of the camera. Keep up the amazing work brother.
Thank you! I really appreciate this! I'm really trying to move to more cinematic, story-infused content, rather than just your standard clinical tech review!
@@PeteMatheson also turn off Bluetooth and wifi scanning in location services. I also got rid of any location based routines I had set up. And turn off 5G,
@@PeteMatheson Thats why I hate android and samsung especially. Why do i have to do so many things so my phone can work properly and not buggin out and destroying battery life
Bixby user here. Actually, when I started using assistant I started using Bixby and Google Assistant simultaneously first to compare them. And I still do. Althoug I use Google more, as is better for some things, Bixby still surpasses on requests I have including the phones settings and apps as it is a Samsung product.
If she switched then sharing family photos between you is easy again with quick share and quick share now also works with windows laptops too (no airdrop for windows with Apple)
I completely agree and have been complaining to Samsung via the Members App about poor battery life which, like you, have been experiencing for the past couple of months. I also changed my performance settings and it didn't improve battery life all too much and introduced lagging running apps.
People trash talk Bixby a lot so let me clear it up again here cause nobody listens - Bixby was designed with Korea voice recognition first. Korean. Getting a robot to understand Korean was a monumental task at the time, and Sammy pulled it off and it was something to behold. Why does nobody use it in English? (kinda sounds like a you problem) Because, when Samsung finished that voice model it ironically couldnt understand spoken English. That software bug, patch, and delayed release ultimately contributed to its slow start, and eventual downfall ; something that Sammy really wanted to avoid cause it was supposed to be their version of Siri. It hasnt recovered since. So now you know.
@@stomplunacy interesting, I ditched Apple Watch for Garmin about a year ago and now I’m looking to upgrade from my IP13 Pro to this S24… decision lol.
Brilliant review mate, I agree with everything you said. I also like you switched from iPhone to Ultra s24. A few things I miss is, the Note app from Apple, and the Apple keyboard works great even if it's a smaller screen. The few most popular apps work much better on IOS than Android. but still, I think the S24 has a great battery, screen, camera and powerful phone indeed.
I’m actually considering moving from iPhone to android(Samsung) but haven’t really found a way to go about the rest of the ecosystem. I have the MacBook, Apple Watch, iPad, iPhone, Apple TV and HomePods. The MacBook is fine on its own, but the rest I guess works a lot better within the ecosystem. I’m a bit fed up with Apple prices and to be honest, a bit bored with them. The devices work really well together but Android has a lot more features. Any advice? Has anyone done this kind of change?
@snapdragon, I use Bixby daily, and the DeX in mine little S24 is perfect. I have the ergonomics, cameras are great to me and when I wanna go big, DeX. That's the beauty of Android, options. Your device is for you to adjust to your particular life freely.
@@PeteMatheson in majority yes, the integration with Modes and Routines is very good. And the easy and quick access to hardware related functions (flashlight, camera etc). The music identification works seamless too. Still not tried the integration with SmartThings, but appears to be great also. Is rumored that it'll receive a major update with AI still this year. Google Assistant got worse with time, and Gemini is a bad Assistant so far in its development.
It is always nice to refresh with something new to you. Thats why I might try the Apples ecosystem 😁. I have iPhone as workphone and few things that I value in daily that is, display color calibration and picture colors straight from phone are more pleasing to me. Not that I know anything about color science etc. This is just opinion and how I see.
One of the best reviews. Awesome intro and brilliant ending with memories captured on S24 Ultra. Been using it for 4 months. No complaints. Absolutely ❤️ it
I hope you didn't get copyright strike. Great video even though I never used any apple devices or any flagship android devices I can somehow relate to it. Keep smiling with your family that's the most important part of out life.
the animations on samsung and oneplus are generally slower because they focus on fluidity, whereas xiaomi tried to make the animations fast. so when i switched from my xiaomi phone to OP 7 first thing i did was scale down the animator durations.
Great video!! I definitely stay on apple 🍏 for me 😂 just cause I switch back in for to much and apple is way more convenient for me leave which is not a bad thing in my opinion
Bixby user here! Because it can control every aspect of the phone. Love my S24 Ultra because of the DeX feature, I'm living in a post-PC era because of that, love the S-pen because editing photos and videos and quick notes at work, love the AI because I'm not a native speaker of English language.
Great video, I am an s24 ultra user. Love the battery life and camera abilities. Never used an IPhone but the comparison was great their both great phones.
New subscriber here, very well done. I seem to bounce back and forth from iPhone to Galaxy phones. I do it quite often and I after making a switch I find myself just weeks and sometimes days wanting to swap back. I think I have a problem :)
i loved this video, it makes me wanna try the samsung s24 ultra too (if only i have money to burn)... and jeez, the last part of the memories was a nice touch, a tear dropped and now i'll keep wondering what to do
Always been a Samsung user, decided to get the iphone14 when it came out as a little switch up! It’s been okay but I’ve just order the S24 Ultra and I can’t wait to be back to trusty old Samsung!
I am going to buy a new phone and earbuds but i am not sure what to do i have an iphone xr and apple watch 9 rn should i buy iphone 15 + airpods pro 2 or should i buy samsung s24 + buds3 pro . If i choose second option i will sell apple watch
Time to switch, but my Apple Notes… transferred to Obsidian, available on both OS. 16GB & local Gemini for amazing assistant & enhanced photos. Either Google pixel 9 pro XL available Aug. 2024, or Samsung Galaxy ultra S25, in Jan. 2025…
ahh thanks man! Yeah we're really trying to level up these videos - using the right tracks is one of our big focuses recently. Glad it's being noticed! ❤️
Honestly more I use this phone cause I am trying it out. The more I want to keep it. I love drawing silly things with spen and music change while not having to look at my phone using S-Pen is quite good.
I started off Android then switch to iPhone. Been with Apple for along time and I’m heavily invested but it comes at a cost. I’ve been eyeing Samsung for a while now. I may just try the switch because I’m bored with apple and tired of paying all these subscriptions.lol
For battery life, I am limiting the upper limit of charge to 80%, and I have no issues. You have a lot of customizations to control that will prolong battery life
The best of the best chipset is not the Snapdragon Gen 8. It’s the Apple A-17 Bionic chipset. Apple silicon is still by far and ahead of the competition.
Definitely a bixby user 😅. It's not a google replacement. It's to control the phone without internet. Like turn on the data, location, calculations, opening app when driving or can't use it with hand ( for some reason ) which google wouldn't do without internet.
Well I got this a month after launch in March... This has been one of the easiest phones to keep, coz I barely notice any flaws to switch... ! And by now I've bought 12 cases for this one...!! Coz its so beautiful, you want to keep decorating it..!!
Found your channel cause I’m looking for a new Monitor. Fully for productivity, no gaming or movies. Is the 57” Samsung G9 your daily driver or has the 40” Dell ultra sharp taken that spot? Follow up if the 57” Samsung was OLED and had thunderbolt 4 it would be an easy buy. What’s the closest monitor to that in your opinion?
haha! You summed up my daily thoughts! I'm using the 57" Daily right now (still) Dell 40" Ultrasharp is also great. I have a dock setup so I can use 1 cable to charge my mac, plus connect it to a bunch of peripherals. But then I also have HDMI directly from the Macbook Pro to the monitor. Vs the Dell which is one cable. Dell review coming soon on the channel also - I know I've been quite slow on that one!
I used Bixby to set routines which was very helpful. For Eg. when I leave my house, the phone automatically turns on mobile data, switches off wifi, charges from vibrate to ringing etc. and vice versa. It's kinda neet and unparalleled compared to any other voice assistant in this regard.
I only got the phone a few days ago, I'm the only one who thinks that it discharge too quickly and heats up too easily, I honestly😢😪 didn't expect this from such a powerful and expensive phone😢
Once the RCS update on iOS 18 comes out it’ll change a lot for iPhone users cause you won’t need what’s app at all or anything in between it’s gonna be awesome
I wish I had the same experiences, but so far I've really disliked the switch. My biggest issue isn't really the phone itself, it's the performance of apps. In general, it seems like iPhone apps are so much more polished. I've also been really disappointed with how difficult it it to do simple privacy actions I could easily do on iPhone (, it seems to be impossible to not get a drop down notification when you have any other type of notification present
About the NFC, try paying by placing the phone vertically from the charging slot or simply horizontally from the bottom, not from the top near the camera like an iPhone.
Oh yeah no worries - I've nailed the position now! But you're right, I've been so used to just tapping the top of the iPhone for so long, it's taken me a while to figure that out ;)
I use bixby voice to set alarms. For some reason it's much more reliable than gemini or Google assistant. Using it for voice settings on the phone is amazing
Nope, I think the ending should have been more balanced as I wanted it to leave an open ended question with no answer of which one I stuck with, because ultimate - it doesn’t matter what phone you use 😁
I've had Android phones my entire life, and then this past Christmas, I got an iPhone 14. I loved it up until the past couple of weeks (my battery capacity was draining quickly, most likely due to me being on beta updates). Then, this past Sunday, I went to AT&T and got the S24 Plus. However, part of me wants to go back to the iPhone. I did really enjoy it. I think part of me just wanted a better model (don't get me wrong, the 14 is an amazing model). I didn't like my camera zoom and wanted a better battery. Also, websites have better case offers for iPhones. If I had upgraded mine but stayed with the iPhone, I would have gotten either the 15 Plus or the 15 Pro. I feel like in school, especially, it's weird not to have an iPhone. It's almost like a social status, which pains me because I know there will be people who make fun of me. I think after my contract is done on this phone, I might switch back. The crazy thing is that I'm getting close to the same screen time as my iPhone 14, which had a 3279 mAh battery capacity, and this one has a 4900 mAh battery. That doesn't make sense at all, but I guess it comes down to the hardware of the phone. But im not sure at the end of the day.
I use bixby, and it understands me better than siri, who didnt understand my norwegian and was incredibly inaccurate in english. It also had a lot less features when interacting with 3rd party hardware. Have non of these issues with bixby or google
Thanks. I am also long time iPhone user from 3s. I am now considering switching iPhone to S24 ultra or Fold 6. Do you have a plan to compare S24 ultra to Fold 6? :)
Folds are really interesting to me - I actually bought the Flip 6 this year - interested on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold (whatever it's called..lol). The Fold 6 didn't seem like much of a big upgrade over the 5. It felt the same in my hand and I'm not a fan of the thinner outer screen

i loved this video, it makes me wanna try the samsung s24 ultra too (if only i have money to burn)... and jeez, the last part of the memories was a nice touch, a tear dropped and now i'll keep wondering what to do
🙌🏼 so glad you enjoyed it. Trying to make these videos better every time!
Which phone has better battery life?
Always been a Samsung user, decided to get the iphone14 when it came out as a little switch up! It’s been okay but I’ve just order the S24 Ultra and I can’t wait to be back to trusty old Samsung!
Nice! How have you found the iPhone when coming from Samsung before?
I am going to buy a new phone and earbuds but i am not sure what to do i have an iphone xr and apple watch 9 rn should i buy iphone 15 + airpods pro 2 or should i buy samsung s24 + buds3 pro . If i choose second option i will sell apple watch
Bro looks like Sean Gunn.
Maybe he is the third Gunn
Ngl, I have a 15 PM and a S24 Ultra and I like both but I give apple the edge 😅
Been using S24 Ultra for about 2 weeks, idk but I feel like the camera could have better colours :( any tip?
@@Primitivumsounds like you need a pixel? 👀
@@NarrowWay__7 I guess... I actually sold it and went back to my iPhone 15, base model, photos/videos are great again.
You don't even need an S24 ultra to love and stay in Android. That's what most people don't even know.
Those memories looked amazing, thank you for trying the S24 Ultra and give and informed opinion 🤝
Time to switch, but my Apple Notes… transferred to Obsidian, available on both OS.
16GB & local Gemini for amazing assistant & enhanced photos.
Either Google pixel 9 pro XL available Aug. 2024, or Samsung Galaxy ultra S25, in Jan. 2025…
I have a iPhone 15 pro max should i get the s24 ultra or wait till the new iphone
1st. Dang what a video. Kodus to your effort on this video. 👏
Thank you so much!
@@PeteMatheson I also loved the other video that started with Bruno mars - Just the way you are. It was PEAK !
ahh thanks man! Yeah we're really trying to level up these videos - using the right tracks is one of our big focuses recently. Glad it's being noticed! ❤️
You can definitely change the behaviour of the side button - I have done so on my S23 plus, S22 and S9.
Honestly more I use this phone cause I am trying it out. The more I want to keep it. I love drawing silly things with spen and music change while not having to look at my phone using S-Pen is quite good.
🙌🏼
I started off Android then switch to iPhone. Been with Apple for along time and I’m heavily invested but it comes at a cost. I’ve been eyeing Samsung for a while now. I may just try the switch because I’m bored with apple and tired of paying all these subscriptions.lol
haha! Yep, right there with you there
Loving my Galaxy S24 Ultra 1TB 💛
For battery life, I am limiting the upper limit of charge to 80%, and I have no issues. You have a lot of customizations to control that will prolong battery life
The best of the best chipset is not the Snapdragon Gen 8.
It’s the Apple A-17 Bionic chipset. Apple silicon is still by far and ahead of the competition.
@@americannationalist1110 far is a stretch
Definitely a bixby user 😅. It's not a google replacement. It's to control the phone without internet. Like turn on the data, location, calculations, opening app when driving or can't use it with hand ( for some reason ) which google wouldn't do without internet.
Well I got this a month after launch in March... This has been one of the easiest phones to keep, coz I barely notice any flaws to switch... ! And by now I've bought 12 cases for this one...!! Coz its so beautiful, you want to keep decorating it..!!
Found your channel cause I’m looking for a new Monitor. Fully for productivity, no gaming or movies.
Is the 57” Samsung G9 your daily driver or has the 40” Dell ultra sharp taken that spot? Follow up if the 57” Samsung was OLED and had thunderbolt 4 it would be an easy buy. What’s the closest monitor to that in your opinion?
haha! You summed up my daily thoughts!
I'm using the 57" Daily right now (still)
Dell 40" Ultrasharp is also great.
I have a dock setup so I can use 1 cable to charge my mac, plus connect it to a bunch of peripherals. But then I also have HDMI directly from the Macbook Pro to the monitor.
Vs the Dell which is one cable.
Dell review coming soon on the channel also - I know I've been quite slow on that one!
What a great video this was.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, and very comfy case you having there :D
Thank you for conveying your experience with utmost credibility, and this is something that deserves thanks
Appreciated! Thank you
I used Bixby to set routines which was very helpful. For Eg. when I leave my house, the phone automatically turns on mobile data, switches off wifi, charges from vibrate to ringing etc. and vice versa. It's kinda neet and unparalleled compared to any other voice assistant in this regard.
I only got the phone a few days ago, I'm the only one who thinks that it discharge too quickly and heats up too easily, I honestly😢😪 didn't expect this from such a powerful and expensive phone😢
Said it yourself powerful phone, charges quickly ? How's that bad jaja
Once the RCS update on iOS 18 comes out it’ll change a lot for iPhone users cause you won’t need what’s app at all or anything in between it’s gonna be awesome
I want to sell my iPhone 15 pro max and go to Samsung z flip 6, I am tired from Apple and battery health now 88% 💀 much better in samsung
I did that with my 13 pro now I got the 6fold I'm excited
I find Quick Share with link realy useful.
For me the s24 ultra is too heavy and not comfortable to hold
I wish I had the same experiences, but so far I've really disliked the switch. My biggest issue isn't really the phone itself, it's the performance of apps. In general, it seems like iPhone apps are so much more polished.
I've also been really disappointed with how difficult it it to do simple privacy actions I could easily do on iPhone (, it seems to be impossible to not get a drop down notification when you have any other type of notification present
I love my samsung s24 ultra and the watch, always been a samsung person .😊
About the NFC, try paying by placing the phone vertically from the charging slot or simply horizontally from the bottom, not from the top near the camera like an iPhone.
Oh yeah no worries - I've nailed the position now! But you're right, I've been so used to just tapping the top of the iPhone for so long, it's taken me a while to figure that out ;)
I like the iPhone a lot but I went to s23 ultra last year and I just traded it in for the z fold 6 and I don't regret it, yet
I just ordered an S24 Ultra, will be coming from an iPhone 15 Pro Max....I'm getting cold feet lol
@@eleNun3z update of your opinion ?, was it worth the switch ? Haha
@@mariahyusaf8315 I sent it back ten days later. The battery would drain with no use. Was very disappointed with the battery life 😕
I use bixby voice to set alarms. For some reason it's much more reliable than gemini or Google assistant. Using it for voice settings on the phone is amazing
Watching from s24ultra and i love it💯👌✌️
That’s the only sad thing about Galaxies… the battery goes bad literally in months.
First I saw of this snapdragon event in Maui. GF and I have never been to Hawaii. Maybe this is the excuse we need!
What are you recommending between google or samsung wallet
I use Google since not all my cards work on Samsung wallet.
I didn't understand. Did he return to iPhone ?
Nope, I think the ending should have been more balanced as I wanted it to leave an open ended question with no answer of which one I stuck with, because ultimate - it doesn’t matter what phone you use 😁
I've had Android phones my entire life, and then this past Christmas, I got an iPhone 14. I loved it up until the past couple of weeks (my battery capacity was draining quickly, most likely due to me being on beta updates). Then, this past Sunday, I went to AT&T and got the S24 Plus. However, part of me wants to go back to the iPhone. I did really enjoy it. I think part of me just wanted a better model (don't get me wrong, the 14 is an amazing model). I didn't like my camera zoom and wanted a better battery. Also, websites have better case offers for iPhones. If I had upgraded mine but stayed with the iPhone, I would have gotten either the 15 Plus or the 15 Pro. I feel like in school, especially, it's weird not to have an iPhone. It's almost like a social status, which pains me because I know there will be people who make fun of me. I think after my contract is done on this phone, I might switch back. The crazy thing is that I'm getting close to the same screen time as my iPhone 14, which had a 3279 mAh battery capacity, and this one has a 4900 mAh battery. That doesn't make sense at all, but I guess it comes down to the hardware of the phone. But im not sure at the end of the day.
@snapdragon You know what to do Invite Your boy to your event
🤜🏼🤛🏼
Love the inclusion of music in this video!
I use bixby, and it understands me better than siri, who didnt understand my norwegian and was incredibly inaccurate in english. It also had a lot less features when interacting with 3rd party hardware. Have non of these issues with bixby or google
Thanks. I am also long time iPhone user from 3s. I am now considering switching iPhone to S24 ultra or Fold 6. Do you have a plan to compare S24 ultra to Fold 6? :)
Folds are really interesting to me - I actually bought the Flip 6 this year - interested on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold (whatever it's called..lol). The Fold 6 didn't seem like much of a big upgrade over the 5. It felt the same in my hand and I'm not a fan of the thinner outer screen
