I haved used 15 Pro max (for 8 months) and S24Ultra for 2 months..
My opinion
1) S24ultra is snappiest android in Market right now. Its dependable android
2) camera both photos and videos are still better on 15 Pro Max
3) Battery of both Iphone 15 pro max and s24 ultra similar but iphone has slightly more lasting battery
4) S24 ultra (above $1k) has almost same software like $200 Samsung.. which is kind of annoying because if u wanna enjoy samsung software get that 200$ phone (of course camera and speed wont be same) but features are almost identical
5) iphone updates come on same time for every region... but samsung updates some regions first and then other regions..which is again annoying like watching those new features on YT and not being able to enjoy and by the time old new update comes to your region its already old...
6) Iphone apps are well optimised.. for example, snapchat... when u select contacts for snap to share, the selection interface is so smooth but in android its kinda screen feel glitchy but infact its android app not well optimised...
7) for s24 ultra and other androids the covers arent that decent.. but every year and new model tou find hell of attractive cases for iphone
8) better resale value is a big plus in iphones

That strong almost 9 months after launch and sales. Shows the demand interest and strength of this phone truly being premium and a total package hardware and software that can fully be used by all users.
Total package. This is what happens when you focus on everything the product delivers. Not just camera specs.

If Samsung were to make a compact version of the S24 Ultra but without S Pen support for $1100, would you guys buy that instead?

Everyone has the freedom to do whatever they want to do with their own money, and it's not your right to tell people what they should and shouldn't be spending on.
I mean sure, a $2000 designer sweater is not more useful than a $20 homemade sweater in terms of protecting you from the cold. A $500 wagyu steak is not more filling than a $5 fried chicken meal set. But hey, if you're filthy rich, you'd most likely not want to spend your money on the cheap stuff, because most rich people need to show others that they have class.

The best smartphone. Finally, I concede it is better than even the noisy iPhone 15 Pro Max or the latest Pixel phones in terms of low light photography. Forget Pixel phones' Night Sight. The S24 ultra's night mode is much better. In terms of specifications and software features and customizability, it's also the best (iPhones are the worst). Hardware too and even software support is better than even Google's Pixel phones. The only thing the S24 ultra doesn't beat on Pixels are some of the still Pixel AI exclusive photoediting stuff (add me, reimagine, best take, zoom enhance, auto frame, etc.) which the S24 ultra doesn't have a similar implementation yet. But I'm sure, Samsung will offer it in future One UI updates so there's absolutely no more reason to buy a Pixel with so-so Tensor processors or an overpriced iPhone with noisy night photos and mediocre, half-baked A.I.

- S-Pen
- 1440p LTPO panel
- Corning Gorilla Armor protection with anti-reflective coating
- Flagship Snapdragon processor
- 512GB and 1TB memory options

- Samsung DeX

Those are all the things you can't get on a Galaxy A55, which is 1/3 of the S24 Ultra's price tag.

Using s24u from last 4 months,
Guys when to expect updates (not security fixes monthly) but OS update.
Camera is still biggest weakness (I found it took pictures like 30k phones-currently in market)

MihaiRo, 21 Jun 2024S24U:The year is 2024 ,5000mAh battery capacity and 45 Watt... moreI guess it is due to battery they use. even other brand like apple cant maximize wattage to 45w cause they use LI-ion Battery unlike Chinese company they Use Li-polymer.
Li-ion has better life span that can take up to 10 years but has limit in wattage cause it is easy to catch fire thats why it is also much expensive cause manufacture add some safety measure in their battery.
Li-polymer has shorter lifespan but they can take higher wattage and they are much cheaper cause they are easy to made cause its much safer than Li-ion.

The S24 ultra has one of the best screens on the market, but that doesn't come without a price. Anti-reflection really helps a lot, but at the cost of noticeable greasing of the screen, as if the oleophobic layer doesn't exist at all. You can literally see even the smallest particle of dust and dirt and the screen has to be cleaned non-stop.

Mr. Anonymous, 19 Aug 2024The screen of s24u is currently one of the best on the mark... moreYeah, I don't really see how the S24U's screen is a downgrade over previous Ultras. I'm not a fan of curved displays because of glare, image distortion, accidental touches, and durability concerns. Applying tempered glass protectors are also a lot more complicated on curved screens because you need to shine UV light on the phone.
The only design aspect that Samsung could've improved is ergonomics. I'm a fan of boxier phones but the S24U is just way too boxy for its own good, those sharp corners really hurt your palms after prolonged usage. In my opinion, the Galaxy Note 9 was the perfect balance between rounded and boxy.
