And if you watch any YouTube test, it's on a par with the iPhone 15 Pro Max... even beating it in some tests.

      Battery life is worse, 24MP/50MP images are like garbage. Not interested in 12MP cameras. Only good thing is the display. Mate 60 Pro and OnePlus 12,Even the iPhone 15 Plus is much better.

        Anonymous, 15 Feb 2024No? S3 + S4 combined for more than 150 million units so... moreyes ..your number was correct so can you imagine S23U sold barely ~ 9 mil and how was this can be consider successful line up in the the name of Samsung brand ? That is total disaster ...right .. im not comparing to i phones sale volume .
        Samsung shipped almost 226 mil smartphone last year and total whole global shipment for whole brand was 1.14 Bils [ 1140 mil ] . so 9 out of 1140 = how low is that .... so we all here better talk the real fact on what world perception and people interest of buying this S brand flagship.

                You are right in this statement only, but you are wromg to mention why it happens. This is happening because:
                1. Galaxy S series is expensive from the beginning. In the beginning, S may be sold well because no so many direct competitors. Now, people ve got many choices.
                2. Galaxy S series is expensive so that not so many people can buy it. How many people can buy the cheapest Ferrari when they know all cars will have the same road?
                3. Galaxy S is expensive always. The new S will come with the price.

                  David 040882, 14 Feb 2024And now turning back to your comment: "The 4.6 star ra... morethe sale going to failed miserably as same fate as s21u, 22u and also s23u. Just wait , only time will tell. Canalyst or other tech web will publish the sale number .🤭😂 Not because the phone is not good but this brand has tonnes people dislike the gimmick of their marketing and create hype and wrong purpose to consumer .
                  Just admit the S series never sold well in the world of mobile phone history. The rating number mean nothing to help and convince global consumer go out immediately buying it because flagship market is full of competition come from many brand including the iphones.

                  World perception of this S brand still negative and so many issues raise by people that owned it.

                    I some cases, the 10x images just look as if they used pixel binning + upscaling.

                      Revelation1, 14 Feb 2024Thank you for your post. It helps to confirm my belief. I... moreOneplus 12 has split batteries. Smaller batteries can handke higher charging currents without heating. 50W on 2000 mAh battery produces less heat than Samsung's 45W charging on a 5000mAH battery. Using oneplus 5T charger will heat up your battery longer than using 100W charger. At 100W charging. your battery spends less time at higher temps.

                      USB PD will also heat up your oneplus as voltage conversion will now happen inside your phone instead of the charger like oneplus intended causing heat build up.

                        This is a great device, although my friend who owns it reported the Spen feeling really cheap and plasticky. Which is inexcusable for the price. Also the back design is bland!

I got the new Oneplus 12 with the ultra fast charger, but on something I read awhile back I choose to charge my "12" using the older Oneplus 5T charger. While the 12 is charging it lets me know that it is not using the ultra fast charging, thus it does take about 30 minutes longer to get to 100%, but it saves the battery from using that ultra fast charger.

                            I'm in no way an engineer or expert on this stuff, but I just follow "best practice" based on things I have read about the trade-off of using super fast charging. I would prefer my battery last many more years.

                              S24 Snapdragon vs S24 Crappynos
                              https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-eTSRngwAK0

                              Video shows the variant with snapdragon wipes the floor without mercy with the variant powered by crappynos 2400.

                              - photos have higher quality
                              - phone runs at lower temperature (crappynos show high temperature message while doing 4K@60) , difference of 9 celsius while gaming.
                              - longer battery endurance , crappynos variant turned off while snapdragon one still had 17% battery left.

                                Those apps do not work properly.

                                    I like the return to a flat screen, and despite the complaints I prefer the more toned down display. I'm surprised that the battery life falls short of the 15 Pro Max though, I was expecting it to be more power efficient.
                                    Maybe some under the menu settings need tweaking? Samsung still make the best all rounder Android phones in the world.

                                      The GSM low light studio shots from the main camera of both the S23U and S24U are markedly sharper, more detailed and less noisy on the former! What's up with that?

                                        NOK6600, 14 Feb 2024The 4.6 star rating score is totally pointless when the ph... moreOneUI is not TouchWiz. What do you mean by laggy?
                                        Maybe if you use low end entry phones like the A05 then that would be laggy.
