Maybe this should be called the Note 24 along because it has the S-pen (same applies to previous S23U & S22U).
I would like to see a 1"- type main & 1/2" Ultrawide & Telephoto sensors preferably Sony's IMX or LYT (whatever's best).
IF there isn't room then maybe make the S25 Ultra thicker (curved back) or go without the S-pen for a series.

And no one complained about Samsung phones being too vibrant (not in the last 6 years anyway). After they "trained" us all, both users and other manufacturers alike, to like these oversaturated screens, they suddenly change the vibrancy to something more natural when no one asked for it?! If someone wants natural, they use Natural mode, let the Vibrant mode be how it used to be.

Samsung still hasn't fixed capture speeds, pets, kids cars all end up blurry. It seems that Samsung doesn't know how to fix this issue. So many generations in now.

Be sure this new 115mm is cheaper than the 230mm. Samsung again cost cutting.
2x crop out of 1/2.5" is like using 1/4.2" basically.
If samsung had used imx586 instead, at 230mm it would be like using 1/3" ..

- a more scratch resistant and less reflective screen
- a flat display (which is a big deal for a lot of people)
- an even more powerful chip, improving already great battery life
- useful AI features
- SEVEN years of OS updates

The 10x zoom is a disappointment. I understand it performs better in night shots, but daytime shots and all videos look worse. When I want long range zoom, I want long range zoom, and care more about 10x than 5x - I want as long as possible (you get the idea). If I am in public at a concert on a large arena, I want to zoom to the stage, probably more than 10x if I'm not in the first rows - and that's how I've been using the S22 Ultra camera. Now, this is vastly inferior.

Apple does not allow you to tune screen, nobody cares.
Phones with stock android do not even have RGB sliders to tune.
Funny same ppl that want choices did not mind samsung removing IR blast, earphone jack and micro sd slot. Where are choices for those that want these stuff?

You post what looks like one video but... it's actually a list of videos playing one after the other. Or, of course, you can use the top right button to see the entire playlist or the left-right buttons around the "Play" button to jump between videos. Magic, isn't it?

Use natural if you want the best calibrated colors and use vibrant if you want punchy colors and don't care about calibration. Samsung should not make this choice themselfs. Let the user decide.

It's surprising that Samsung didn't choose a 64 megapixel 115mm camera. A missed opportunity in my opinion.

Great review. Most other websites only mentioned how great the display is because of the new anti-glare glass, but nearly none mentioned how terrible the panel quality is compared to the samsung's own last years models and other phones. I was so disappointed when compared my s24u with my old s22u that had no grainy display issue or washed-out colors and terrible brightness management.
