Myself and my family, friends, and everyone I spoke with, all hate the Volume-Buttons moved to the right side by Samsung on its phones. It's annoying, difficult to use, pushed the power button further down, difficult to put the phone in the car mounted-holder (side bracket keeps pushing the buttons), accidentally pushing the power button while trying to push the volume down button. I don't know what they think when making this type of change without research and analysis.
We are all using the Samsung flagship phones (NOTE Series, and now S Series Ultras). We didn't miss any new NOTE phones till NOTE 5. After that, Samsung design engineers made some stupid modifications:
1. Made the CURVE Screens. Samsung thought it was a genius move, but the whole world hated it. It was useless and waste of screen space, making the actual functional screen smaller in normal use. Accidentally touching it while typing, results in opening the unwanted anonymous screens.
2. Made the Notes & S-Ultras BRICK types, skinny, unnecessarily extra long with no benefits when watching videos (blank sides without any screen aspect ratio, like 16:9.
3. Replaced the soft corners with sharp edges. They are annoying, look ugly, pocking, and damage the phone more when it drops accidentally on their edges.
Thank God Samsung got-rid off curve screen on its S24 Ultras. We (family and friends) liked it and bought it after NOTE 5 (waited that long..). We hope Samsung will make other changes/improvements in it's future flagship phones.
