      Ottonis, 13 Mar 2025Thank you. Do you mean hardware durability or "softwar... moreI think both of them. Gave my three years old A52 to my aunt. She still uses it. Works fine. My current phone is S24 Plus. Amazing phone for me. Everything works fine. Don't plan to upgrade unless battery dies. Samsung is super easy to use and very customizable. You won't regret. But try it yourself before buying. I would buy S25 Plus if I had to buy a phone today. But after S24 Plus its a minor upgrade.

            Camera Comparsion is a Joke.Its like Compairing a Ferrari with a KIA.The Samsung Foto Team must be a bunch of amateurs.
            Cant believe you even made a Compasion.You need a Gcam mod to have a good Camera with the Samsung.when they dont drasticly Upgrade thr S23U with AGC and LMC Gcam was my last Samsung.

                    Ottonis, 13 Mar 2025Could you elaborate on that? What would be your, let's... moreNumber one is simpler interface. Number two is miles superior update support. Number three is much better apps. Number four is better resale value. Number five is durability. As for software features you can find them in google. Never seen any person you kept his/her xiaomi for many years because their phones aren't durable. They will lag soon. But you can keep samsung five years at least.

                      jiyen235, 13 Mar 2025you either haven't used a samsung flagship or don'... moreAnd when they stop sandbagging with how they run sensors it would be hard for samsung to win anything, even in video.

                        MTJ, 13 Mar 2025How are haptics? I had heard they are downgraded And how&... moreI've never used a Xiaomi phone so I don't know what a downgrade would be, but the haptics seem strong and responsive to me.

                        HyperOS 2 is fine, I'm using Nova Launcher and after getting everything setup it's not much different from OneUI. I've only had it for 24 hours so we'll see how I feel about the OS in a year but I can live with it

                                Ottonis, 13 Mar 2025Could you elaborate on that? What would be your, let's... moreI can give you mine:
                                1/ calendar, alarm and events. No other app I have tried (and I have tried even paid apps) offer the usefulness and way of working which I want. My wife is on the same opinion after trying few other apps/phones.
                                2/ Notes. Nothing out there come even close to it. And that is no exaggeration. One note included.
                                3/ System Cleaner /aka Device Care - that app and watchdog service is amazing and I reboot my devices once per two months perhaps.. basically when there is an update/required restart only. I have several Samsung devices here- rock stable and solid, no leaks, no crashes, no issues.
                                4/ Camera , gallery, bixby and routines...all those are working fast and intuitive. no issues with any of them - you take a picture, edit it, store it, revert changes/keep backups/recognize text/etc.. set a routine (I use one - when my device connects to my car via BT , I start few apps, change few settings, etc. When device disconnects -revert all changes and stop apps).

                                Maybe those sound to you as if an apple user would describe their ecosystem - I tried it. No, for me it doesn't work, I find it awful and unsuitable for even basic daily stuff I do. Chinese phones -same story, although here and there I could see nice ideas. Stock android - same story, google apps aren't really an option for me.

                                I COULD use and find my way with something else in android world, if I have to, but that won't be without sacrificing convenience and doing things in a worse way, than I do them now. Considering I won't be saving money from such change - > there you go. Those are my key points, others might have diff opinon.

                                    I got a 15 Ultra global version yesterday. First impressions are very positive. The camera is incredible - big upgrade over my S23 Ultra.

                                    Ergonomically it's kind of strange to have the camera island obstructing half of the phone. I think it would be hard to deal with if you have big hands. Luckily I have little baby hands so I can live with it
