    Starbee, 28 Feb 2024 I put side by side my s23u and s24u ,adaptive brightness ... moreI absolutely agree with you. I never needed extra brightness on s23u but this s24u' major problem is that for me.

      Ehsan6000, 28 Feb 2024Which bes s23 ultra or S24 ultra?Still 23 only anti glear is gret on it.that all


        I put side by side my s23u and s24u ,adaptive brightness off,extra brightness on and my s23u is much brighter, also the white looks "whiter".
        With adaptive brightness on amd the s24u is way dimmer than s23u. I hate the new displays

          I switched to S24U from S21U, and display is visually much worse.
          - Grainy screen. It is no so pronounced in well-lit environment, but at the evening with Dark mode on in the phone or using GMaps navigation, it is terrible
          - Very low viewing angles. Tilt a phone a bit, you brightness will drop simnifically, and green ting will appear.
          - The whole screen has thin horizontal lines. Like a space between pixel rows on IPS screen. Especially visible on white background and smaller elements with a lot of details.

          I compared S24U with my old Note9. And damn, Note9 has better viewing angles, it's white is pure, and brightness degrades slowly when tilting the device in hands.

          What is very bad, this this seems as an intended screen behaviour: Samsung is silent, there are a lot of reports on Reddit and Samsung forums. Other users replaced their units, but the issue persists on each device.

            vjx012, 26 Feb 2024When you brick your phone or lose internet connection or so... moreThat has happened to 3 of my phones during last 14 years. One had its top portion destroyed in an accident, miraculously the battery and memory card were unharmed, so I was able to save essential things. Next was Windows Phone, bricked during repair of faulty USB connector. Again, data saved due to memory card. Third was a Nokia 8.1, never booted after an update. Service Center informs that repairs will factory reset the phone. This was a blow as I had very important things on this phone. Only the photos and documents survived due to being on the memory card.

            I understand that many here consider a memory card as an obsolete concept, but after going through the above experiences, it would be hard for me to get a device without a removable storage.

            I know regular backups are another option, however it’s not always possible as I have to travel a lot, sometimes for days, and have to use by phones for photos/videos and documents. Those always are saved on both Internal memory and on the memory cards. Essentially, my phones have become my workstations [in addition to being entertainment system :-) ].

            Still rocking my 4 years old S-Series with 512 GB internal, 1 TB Memory card and Audio jack, although I have more recent phone with recent features [or lack of thereof ;-P ].

            P.S. One issue is that the memory card required in next phone has to be bigger than previous one to move all data. Not an issue though, as the card prices remain same but capacity gets doubled every few years.

              Mr. Anonymous, 28 Feb 2024What if you lose the phone? SD card won't help. The same as if you get banned or don't have a reliable internet connection - hope you used all methods I guess 😏

              PC, cloud, MicroSD... If the data's important to you you use all methods.

              Also, what if you can't pay for storage for whatever reason? It may be cheap but MicroSD is free after a front-up payment. Music? You got all that on PC you copied it from.

              Only thing you must regularly sync, IMO, are the pictures.

              I must say though, while a valid point, personally I've never lost a phone. As said, I use cloud, PC and MicroSD. And MicroSD is the fastest and easiest way to sync data if something goes wrong.

              You can also sync another MicroSD. Depending on how far you're willing to go. Heck, why not fill a warehouse full of MicroSDs connected to a PC which syncs cloud to all of them if you lose a phone?

                  The microSD is important for offline backup..

                  What happens if the phone fails? (Yes, I know about online backup.)

                  All flagship phones should have it.

                  It is 2024 and still ...... no SD slot.

                    Worth it? Of course, the old one won. It pays the time you have been waiting for a year LOL

                                    What on the earth, the current flagship of all brands has microSD slot.
                                    You said what you have said (e.g you need a complete flagahip phone with microSD slot) and you used Ferrari as your example of your writing. This is an indicator that you do not need flagship one and are dreaming.

                                        To ask for so much, yet to omit that easy to implement feature: MicroSD.

                                        I am NOT saying I do not need flagships. I am saying I am disappointed that cheaper phones include it, yet the most expensive ones, with performance I want, omit this.

                                        You assume too much.

                                        Why omit cloud and MicroSD? I use both.
