I am in the UK and have just ordered a S24 ultra, unfortunately it will be going back without even opening it. I don't want a lesser phone than the USA! My S23 Ultra is Snapdragon, why oh why have you started changing the chip depending on location. 
It should be cheaper and stated that it is a lesser phone. 
Why should I pay a premium for a lower spec phone?
Get your act together Samsung nobody wants your chipset!

Yes correct, but it does not make that clear on the listings that only the ultra is Snapdragon.

No aggression just don't see why me buying a new phone has anything to do with what I already own. Maybe it was broken or stolen, or maybe it is non of your business.

You can see why I freaked when I thought I had just bought a Exynos not a Snapdragon chipset.

Because when I asked my original question I thought u might of recommended the upgrade was worth it over keepin the older phone I've seen mixed reviews about the s24 ultra compared 2 the s23 ultra and it usually helps 2 ask someone who has had both phones rather than watch YouTube videos of people who get paid 2 promote the latest phones

I will be honest I just have more money than sense, I normally upgrade as soon as the new version comes out, this was my first time not doing so because they are so closely matched. If it was not for my daughters phone battery starting to fail and she dropped it yesterday cracking the screen, I would have probably waited till next year, which is what I would still recommend. Sorry if I came across harsh, I thought I had just wasted a load of money on a Exynos chip. If you are able to look after a phone or have good insurance I would get the the Fold instead, I have had them for a few years and loved them, I am just unable to look after them which is why I went to a S23U instead.
