        Funny how the 3x telephoto does not require "protection".

                    For me rounded corners was the reason to buy s24+ instead of s24 ultra. I didn't like square corners and didn't need s pen. But didn't want small phone like s24 after using a52. So the middle variant was the best for me.

                            Also there's a gap between those rings, why?
                            To collect dust?


                              Maybe they should have talked about in this unboxing is how similar this phone is to the previous generation and what parts they recycled. 🤭

                              Also, water is wet.

                                It's normal for Samsung to release such a video. After all, the best thing about this phone is the box.
                                Instead of focusing on releasing A15 and OneUI7 for all their old phones, for which they promised...

                                  Never understand the point of these unboxing videos anymore where the only things inside are just the phone, cable, and SIM ejector.

                                  Also, the S25 Ultra is really uncomfortable to hold. The edges imo are still too sharp for my liking.

                                    Just got the S25U honestly... (sadly all stores don't sell the S24U anymore. or it's extremely scarce.) and honestly? the rounded sizes DOES feel kind of premium.
                                    I AM STILL $^%!ED off about Samsung being an 4$$ and removing the bluetooth feature. but as an artist. It's not SO MUCH of a must have for me.

                                      It's a beautiful amazing device and I really love it.

                                      It feels so much lighter than the previous ones.

                                      Also the straight edges are really nice to grip onto.
