Thoughts on S25 Ultra after 2 weeks

[Techmaster]

Honest thoughts on the S25 Ultra:

- Battery life is extremely good

- Processing speed excellent

- Too expensive price wise! (However I purchased my S25 Ultra for around £700 which I thought was decent)

- Definitely waterproof! (Dropped it in a pool)

- AI features are beyond me! Concerned that Samsung will start to charge for some AI features at the end of the year! 

- S-pen quality is poor compared to the S22 Ultra! Seems flimsy? 

- Camera quality is very good!

Hello 👋 @Techmaster 

I'm glad your experiencing good things with your phone. 

I agree the battery life is exceptional however I'm not yet out of the approximate 2 weeks learning phase just yet. 

The Qualcomm SM8750-AB Snapdragon 8 Elite (3 nm) provides a seamless user experience i agree. 

The prices of these flagship phone's can be high but in the words of a YouTube Creator I follow " you gotta pay to play "

 How on earth did you let it swim in a pool. I'd of been nope I'm not going nowhere near that pool. I'm glad it's OK though. 

I still haven't played with all the Ai features but after skimming over some I'm impressed. Will Samsung charge for Ai 🤔  we'll have to see. 

I find the sPen the same however I would have like it the same colour as my phone. 

I haven't played extensively with the camera but first thoughts are it's really good.

The S-pen is sadly disappointing , I'm upset it's not the same colour as the phone! Black how hard can that be ? Anyway I went to a spa and took my phone to take photos but it slipped out my pocket and into the pool. I rescued it straight away! However I was impressed as it appears to have it's own water safety feature! The phone powered off and then started vibrating randomly for about 5 mins before rebooting itself. A message then followed talking about water ejection successful, so I was impressed!

S pen is pants compared to the pen i had on my S23 ultra and S24 ultra but everything else is mint.

Same my thoughts @Techmaster, thank you for sharing.
I miss the heaviness of the S24U, I am not used to such lightweight phone. Yet.😄

The ergonomic improvements make up for the loss of heft imo

[Star_girl]

What are those?

[galaxySerb]

Ergonomics is basically how easy something is easy to handle/use because of design.

Ah yes, I love the round corners. More comfortable to look at.
