I’d like to know if you’ve got issues with Samsung galaxy 24 ultra
I just switched from an S20 to an S24.
The screen comes with rather dull colors in the factory vivid setting, but you can fix that by bumping up the vividness in the advanced settings. Then it will look like an S20 screen.
Grainy screen? They did remove the resolution setting for the standard S24, so you can’t pick anymore. But I always used FHD+ on my S20 anyway due to battery life. So I can’t see the difference. Screen looks perfectly fine for me.
The exynos chip is a bit of bummer in terms of battery life compared to SD. You could try to get an imported device from HK or Taiwan, but then probably no warranty. It might save you money, though (I paid 550 USD for a refurbished 256GB HK version a week ago).
I went from s22 to s24 and it tells me it’s charging over and over when it’s plugged in.
Instagram videos lag when I watch for too long
And so far it’s the same camera quality as the s22 even though they said it was better
I don’t know phone specs worth a damn, but I picked the base S24 for an upcoming trip. I previously had a Pixel 3a that didn’t have anything “wrong” with it, but the battery was crapping out and I didn’t want to risk being stuck with a dead phone in an unfamiliar place.
I picked the S24 for the battery life and storage space, and it has given me just that. I like that the base model is comparable in size to my 3a, I don’t like big phones. The S24 is actually a smidge smaller than my Pixel. I personally dont mind this, but I feel it’s noteworthy to mention that other people have told me that they would hate having a phone this small.
My main complaints: video playback seems lagged during action-packed scenes. It hasn’t bothered me enough to try to figure out what’s causing it, but it’s definitely noticeable. My husband even points it out in passing. It’s close to impossible to see dark videos in well lit areas, even with brightness at 100%. I was expecting a huge camera upgrade, especially considering I had a Pixel 3a not even a 3, but I feel like the camera is a downgrade from what I had…so I’m not sure what those two extra lenses are doing. Motion pictures nearly always turn out blurry.
I don’t regret the phone, the battery life has been great and that was my main goal, but I do feel like there’s probably more affordable phones on the market that will give you the same features.
I’ve had my s24 4 days now and have nothing but issues with it I cannot interact with people on iPhones, cannot cut and paste texts, the fingerprint sign in does not work correctly, Notebook is garbage and I could go on and on. Other than a great price this thing is a POS as far as I’m concerned. Samsung online support is totally useless and a waste of time. I have two weeks from my purchase date to return this thing for credit or exchange and that’s probably what I’m going to do, stay away from this garbage
I’m terribly sorry to hear about your issues with S24. I have had the S24 for about a month now and can happily say that I have had no issues whatsoever. Your unit is definitely defective. Ars you going to exchange it for another s24, or some different device?
The battery life is shorter when you use data because the Exynos modems aren’t as efficient. If you’re playing games and using Wi-Fi all the time, you can expect to get around 7-8 hours of screen-on time per 100% charge. The Exynos 2400 is not as good as the 3rd generation, but it’s still much faster than the 2nd generation and can handle even the most demanding games. All of the S24 series phones have a grainy screen issue, no matter which model you buy or which processor it has. I only really notice it when I’m in low light conditions, with the brightness turned down, and with eye comfort shield turned on, so it’s only a problem for a few minutes each day. The AI translations and transcripts could be better, but they can still be really helpful if you don’t speak the other person’s language. The circle to search feature is really cool, and the photo editing is fun.
The S23FE is not as good as the S24 in any way. It has a weaker processor, worse cameras, and bigger bezels.

The lesser battery mostly applies when data connection is enavled since the exynos modems are less efficient. On continues wifi usage with heavy games I’m looking at 7-8h SOT per 100%. Exynos 2400 is inferior to gen 3 but still significantly faster than gen 2 and handles even the games like a champ. Every single S24 series device has rhe grainy screen issue, doesn’t matter if you’re buying base plus or ultra or snapdragon or exynos. I personally only notice it in low light conditions at a low brightness and with eye comfort shield enabled, so only for a couple minutes a day. AI translations and transcripts can be significantly improved, but it could definitely save you when you don’t speak the other persons language. Circle to search is amazing and photo editing fun.
S23FE is inferior to the S24 in all aspects, it has a mich weaker process and worse cameras, larger screen bezzles
Hi… sorry about my English. I need an expert to help me get the answer. My Galaxy S24 Ultra has a problem. When I woke up this morning, I didn’t look up my mobile and I went out, I took 1 photo. Then in the afternoon I tried to looking for a photo so I have found out that there is only 1 last photo that I just have taken left in the camera folder, screenshot folder and another 10 folders are disappeared. Altogether around 20k photos are gone and the space in the mobile has raised up so it means they are not hiding somewhere in this mobile. I call the Samsung call centre and went to the store, no one could answer me anything about the cause. Have anyone heard something like this? Or what would be possible to make 20k photos are disappeared. No child and my mobile always next to me and no way that I could accidentally delete it, otherwise they should be in the bin. I post these and the system deleted my post
I have had the s24 plus for just under a month. Amazing in every way but for it freezing up at least twice a day with the “close app?” Prompt appearing. Don’t know what to do about that. Any ideas? Updates are current.
My wife’s s24 is crap. When she calls someone the line drops randomly. Not a signal issue as I am on same network and never have that issue. She uses WhatsApp for calls now. Also she has a weird issue with Google maps. It’s never pin pointing her exact location. It’s like it’s lagging behind when she’s using on her drive. Also the map doesn’t show as she is driving up a road. For example when you’re driving on a road, the map would show an arrow and as driving it will but going up the road but hers is showing as a dot and is moving across like left to right. She has to zoom out and then click the recenter button to get it back to the correct way.
Think we gonna send it back. She said she prefers her s20 fe 5g and will be going back to that…
That’s very odd. Mine hasn’t had that issue at all.
What apps are you running in the background/trying to close? Does it happen just when you tap the button, or when you swipenit up too?
