After reading some negative statements and some valid points to why there's not much difference in upgrading from a S23U to a S25U , I'm hesitant now... Need second opinions now... I paid £606 plus trading in my S23U 1TB for £440

I'm keeping my S24 Ultra and can't wait for the update; personally, I think it looks way better than the S25 Ultra, but hey, different strokes for different folks.

I just love the s pen features and the 10x zoom on the s23 to much to warrant trading up. Plus you notice they give you more for a 256gb version £475 over a 512gb at only £414? How is that fair? So no from me

Meanwhile, in some EU countries, the S25 Ultra 1TB is not available for pre-order, and costs €1,819. If it cost like yours and with such discounts, I would take it immediately. There is no way I would even switch to the S25 ultra, 512 MB memory costs €1,499 like last year's S24 ultra and that is the only promotion (double the gigabytes of memory). Trade-in is also not worth it, I will not give the S24 ultra for €400. No freebies like yours. Here, people are now buying the S24 ultra because it costs €600 new, but that is too expensive considering that is the price for 256 MB of memory. But the price is not the only reason I gave up on the S25 ultra. The bigger reason is the problems that Samsung has in the production of the S25 series, because of which it lost the contract with Qualcomm for the Snapdragon Elipse chip. Good luck with your S25 ultra's

Fair enough. 😎


Daily Driver > Samsung Galaxy s²⁵ Ultra 512Gb ~ Titanium Black.

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.
I'm here to help. " This is the way. "

How about going to a store and playing with the phone on release? Although you can send it back, if you open it and play with it, they may take a percentage off, so maybe see if you like the aesthetic and "upgrades" first? I will say that I traded in my s23 Ultra for the 24 ultra past year and despite really loving the shape of the s24 ultra, I regretted losing that camera and feel of the s23ultra, I wish I could have kept it tbh

No, there is no Bluetooth version coming, just lots of fake ads and misinformed people.

I was gutted about the lack of Bluetooth, but them realised I naturally used tyre functionality. Remote camera trigger, and air actions are not something I was a big on.

There is no plans for a Bluetooth pen. They removed the pen charger from internals to slim the phone down. It's likely they won't bring it back in the S26 so what would your next phone be?

I love my S24U and after much thought, I have decided to keep it another year or maybe more, it takes surprisingly good pictures even with 5x optical zoom, but I do reckon that the 10x zoom is superior.

I tried to trade it in but everywhere I tried with all the discounts I got maximum £550 and it's just last year's top range phone, plus, no Bluetooth functionality on the S25U, nope I don't think so... plus S24U it's an absolutely lovely phone and I love it so much, I am not ready for new phone.❤
