S25 series - Thoughts and feelings about them over a week since the the official release?

[Brooklin]

It's been over a week now since the official release of the S25 series. 

Tell me how you all feel about them. I'm enjoying them and feel it's a slight improvement to the S24 Series in some ways. 

Disclaimer: I never used the Bluetooth Spen so I don't miss it.

Can't wait to give it a go.😊

Really enjoying my S25 Ultra. It seems to run faster and definitely cooler with great battery life. The sound seems improved too and really like the new design. Enjoying Gemini, that seems very useful. Looks like they"ve done a good job with that. Haven't done too much with the cameras yet but pleased with what I have seen so far. I was disappointed with the removal of the S pen bluetooth functionality but have worked around it.

Like the lockscreen by the way!

I'm liking it a fair bit over the S24 Ultra. I don't know if I'm alone in this, but I do feel the screen is better to use than the S24 Ultra was, fingerprints, smudges and just plain touch is better. I always felt a small level of friction (very slight mind you) compared to the S25 Ultra. It's tiny, but still something I notice. I use both phones without screen protectors for reference.

Love the warning on your home screen to keep hands off 😆

Just to be fair here are mine @Brooklin 

Home Screen. 

Lock screen. 

This is a live lockscreen where the two colours meet and collide.

Ohh that's cool. Gotta love the watermark at the bottom right ngl

Gotta be careful of what we share. 😎

[Brooklin]

True that 😎

So clean! Will be doing something similar when I got my s25 ultra. For now my homescreen is like this (s7 edge)
