I've had the S24 Ultra for a few days, and I've been loving so many things about it. However, I've noticed a few issues plaguing my experience.
The first has to do with wireless powersharing between phones. This feature works great on the S23, however, i've noticed that the S24 requires very precise placement of the two phones in order to transfer a charge, with some devices (like the Pixel 7) receiving no charge at all. Both phones need to be placed vertically (contrary to the instructions) in order to charge, and even the thinnest cases cause problems. Again, none of that was a problem on the S23.
The second has to do with vibration. The motor on this phone is far too weak to be felt most of the time when walking around with it in your pocket, even at the maximum setting. Additionally, I've noticed that (very rarely) some vibration patterns cause the phone to make a short rattle noise.
To reproduce, download hapticlabs from the play store, pull up the library, and press on the button simply labeled "Button" with a music note. Do this several times and, if you hear the noise, then I'm not alone.

Hello @Dnhak and may I extend a Warm Welcome to the Samsung Community Forum 👋
I totally understand and appreciate your viewpoints you have raised.
In my own experience it has been mainly the process that another device such as a phone , watch or earbuds case has had to be placed precisely, and can be the case of having the move the other device around to get a good connection for powersharing.
I have both the Samsung Galaxy s²³ Ultra and Samsung Galaxy s²⁴ Ultra ,and in my own experience cannot find much of a difference.
For me the haptic feedback feels adequate and strong enough to be able to recognise it alerting me.
However I do understand we all perceive such things differently, therefore do send feedback via your Samsung Members App too.
If i can be of any further help please don't hesitate to ask 😎
