Do you still find your S10+ being on the same level with current flagships(performance wise)?
I think the issue of lack of an SD CARD slot alone is not enough for someone to choose S10+ over S24U 1TB or even the S23U 1TB. With current flagships we are now talking about Super fast charging(rather than a mere fast charging). We now talking about 5G connection(unlike the LTE), eSims, Periscoped cameras(with 1" sized sensors), WiFi 7 e.t.c
No matter how best you can root your S10+ it can never support as many features as the current flagships(from 2023 up to now). Even a Magic 5 Pro is a way better than any 5 year old model. Any amount of storage greater than 256GB is not so small to spend every moment of time worried about lack of SD Card slot.

I never use my phones at zero brightness in a dark room anyway.
    The vivid mode may not be very different from the natural mode, but personally, I don't consider this a flaw.

      I'm coming from the S22U too and think the display is fantastic. The glass isn't as glossy or shiny, so I think the display might depend on one's eyes and colour preference (eg. I've never been keen on Vivid mode/colours - even on my S22U, I had the screen on Natural mode).

So that means not all. All according to this here: https://www.androidcentral.com/phones/galaxy-s24-grainy-mura-problem-reported

        So that means your warranty should cover the replacement of the screen.

I feel like its a downgrade,but as time progress my eyes becoming more comfortable to the warmer colors. Im coming from s22u so my eyes are used to cooler and vivid colors. Another thing that i dont like is the s pen,i hate the color of the s pen for the purple version,it doesnt color match with the s pen. I also found the device to heat more than my s22u. I dont know why.

          I also use cloud with FolderSync to autosync it all, but why not both? Also, cloud download is slow accessing files, so while a single file is fast to download, accessing another one takes time, which is why a 14 GB download took over 2 hours even with 10 MB/s download speed.

That's more advanced than just store in physical space + you don't have to worry about damaging sd card. I have a few 256gb and 512gb somewhere in my house lol

                        Which one is better deal. S23u(799$) or s24u(1000$) both are (256GB/12Gb) variant.

                            As well as FTP, sFTP, SMB, S3 and WebDAV.

                            As well as syncing folders from local device (for example, from internal to MicroSD).

                            Try it if it works, and if you like it, buy it. It's cheap. Free version supports I think up to a few sync options (called FolderPairs).

                            You can set a scheduled time (or days of week, or multiple times a day), to only sync on charging, only on WiFi, and two-way sync in addition to only standard one-way sync.

                            You can also backup and restore settings.

                            I set it to only display an error notification in case something is wrong and that's it. If it works nothing, if there's something wrong it's an error and that's it.

                              vjx012, 07 Mar 2024FolderSync autosyncs any folder. Including SD cards.That's nice but I'm using onedrive which doesn't support it. Also pCloud where I have 2 TB lifetime and that doesn't support sync either. Support was offended when I asked. "Of course SD card sync functionality is not supported"

What would be the cons of having it?i dont think so speed and reliability. My OLD sd card from s7 edge is still alive and i have used it till my s20u,note9,s8 plus. Now its useless because of people like you who thinks they know what is useful to someone. We are all consumers,if you dont use something it doesnt mean someone is not using it. Anyhow if its not coming back im not worried also Because I dont need a 1000usd phone just to use it for YouTube,fb,tiktok,instagram and casual emails.

                                  2. I haven't lost anything with root except OTA, and KnoxPatch restores Knox features except Samsung Pass and one other
                                  3. Maybe if you put apps there, but NEVER had it slow down my S10+, and with a PC using a MicroSD reader supporting UHS-III (or UHS-II, whichever is fastest and exists today) transfer speed was 130 MB/s, it would be close to 300 MB/s with a UHS-II compatible card

                                    2. If you root a Samsung phone you lose more than gain. Maybe after the end of support, it is worth it.
                                    3. SD cards can slow down the phone. Even when you unlock it will take 1s to load your home screen, annoying.
