Anonymous, 18 Mar 20247 years of usage? Of course it can be. S8/S8+ is now 7 year... moreI still use S8 as my daily phone and yeah its fine, I do notice things are a bit slower than my S21 Ultra but its not enough to make me want to copy my information over. For example, opening the gallery takes about a second on the S8 where on the S21 Ultra its imstant, though after its open they both feel pretty similar. After 7 years though you'd probably want to have the battery replaced, as I did with my S8, batteries don't last 7 years.. Luckily they are pretty cheap and easy to replace. You may also consider debloating the phone after a few years of the things you don't need or use, which can be done with ADB on a computer. Careful not to mess with any knox stuff though. I don't feel like upgrading any time soon, especially with the lack of headphone jack and SD card slot on most newer phones, and after making the bixby button open the flashlight

dimoten, 20 Mar 2024I don't understand people looking for nice pictures wi... moreWhilst better pictures can be achieved by DSLR or mirrorless cameras, those cameras are a lot heavier and more work to carry around all the time, not to mention a lot more expensive than a phone. For someone who is just doing photography as a hobby and doesn't want to deal with the extra hassle of carrying around a large camera with large lenses and have to deal with poor battery life on the camera, etc. It really is a great option. I actually have a Canon EOS camera but bought an S21 Ultra as a much more portable alternative. You also can edit photos on a phone and upload them to websites, which is not possible on most cameras.

[deleted post]You can disable the animations in developer options if they bother you, though in my testing of this phone I didn't experience this. My testing is limited to an hour or two though. When you refer to graininess are you talking about dithering in above 8 bit colour spaces? In 8 bit colour which most things use it looks fine, but smudging vaseline all over the display should help with any obscure dithering artifacts that may or may not be visible.
As far as playing games, it seems to have the performance to play every Android game, even older computer games through WINE, but if you don't like these games you also could use GeForce NOW or Steam RemotePlay to play any computer game. You also could get a controller app to connect withyour computer then open the camera and point it at your computer screen whilst pressing the controller buttons on the phone, though gaming quality will be based on your computer specs
Camera is pretty good but the quality of the 3x telephoto is a bit lacking, and zooming in to 10x and above is inferior to previous Samsung Ultra models. The 200mp one is good though. I'd say Oppo Find X7 Ultra or Xiaomi 14 Ultra would probably be better if you really need good camera quality above all else.

Fantastic phone but unfortunately and surprisingly misses out on Dolby Vision support as well as support for 68 billion colors. It should be a must on the Galaxy S25 Ultra

I am getting 1 to 1.5Hrs of less battery back up now.
No further improvements in image Quality in camera.

Not meant to be rude, with price tag over USD1300, most subtle differences are to be scrutinized. I did have a really bad experience with galaxy S20 Ultra after 2 years of purchase, where bright pink lines subsisted in monitor.
Yet I don't think it's Samsung's fault (as it's last batch of their flagship phone assembled in China) No similar complaints surfaced at all for subsequent flagships S22 & onwards that are assembled in Vietnam. So I return to Samsung S24U please don't fail me this time.

Geometry dash 2.2, 28 Mar 2024My s21 ultra really is better broIn what way exactly? I had an S21U - and it's a great phone. But I can tell you for a fact that the S24U is better: better display, better speakers, better cameras, better battery life, better (faster) charging, better (faster) all-'round performance...
