S24 plus - The Review

[GoanGeek]

Like 👍🏽 or follow me if you want to follow this post and one for the flip soon

UPDATE : First Impressions 

So got my S24 plus .

Set it up straight away for the wife.

Her first impression was 

"OH! ITS SO MUCH LIGHTER" 

Her old phone is a Pixel 6.

It looks really nice without a case. Shame have to slap one on for protection. I got a spidgen clear case for it 

The Order

Ooh kinda excited for the S24 Plus even though I have the Ultra.

Looks like I will have it before the Flip.

Three phone hopefully by next week will be a bit too much too handle.

Update: Sent off my trade in device (s9+) will post back as to how it goes as doing a trade in for the first time.

Any Plus users here?

How is Exynos and the Battery life.?

Ha ha.. Well spotted . Been watching too many Pixel videos and comparisons.

Also planning it to give to the Mrs as well.

I have a S24 Plus in the UK.  Battery life according to the Device Care app, a full charge will last 2d 17h.   Not sure how it compares with anything else because the S24 Plus is all I have. 

One thing I would say though, if I'm watching a live stream of something on my phone using the internet browser (ie: not YouTube / Netflix etc) and I view it on my TV using Smart View mirror screen, my phone gets pretty hot!

There is a possibility that the on the Internet browser the screen doesn't dial down the fps like it does for streaming apps and hence the heating.

Streaming apps like Netflix etc dial it down to 45 or 60 htz. Which also help in saving battery.
