Siv, 19 Jan 2025Cloud storage offers an alternative to internal storage if your phone malfunctions.Or MicroSD. But sadly the S25 doesn't have it.
Cloud storage also is affected by censorship. If you upload something Google doesn't like, they will delete it without warning.

Heck, just like with my previous Samsung phones, I didn't even need to pair it again after using Smart Switch. It worked using the pairing from the previous phone. With my car and other devices.

I've had this device for a month now after trading in my S24 Ultra. Initially, I had some battery issues, but it turned out to be the device learning my usage patterns. The missing Bluetooth in the S Pen isn't a big deal for me since I rarely use the air gestures; it really depends on how you use your device. The now brief isn't very useful as it only shows the weather and photos I've taken during the day. I'm hoping it becomes more useful soon! The camera is on par with the S24 Ultra, and I'm looking forward to the upcoming updates. Overall, if you own an S24 Ultra, should you upgrade? I'd say yes, if you have some extra cash lying around.

This phone is crap it's samsung's top phone but can't even do the simple task of staying paired to my car. I have to re pair it to my car everyday. Yet a $30 Walmart flip phone can. It's highly overrated and way overrated on cost. It's only worth breaking in 2 i hate it and it's the first and last samsung I will ever buy!

The S25 ultra has no SIC battery. The competition has more durable and larger batteries that are already pushing for 6000+ mAh
The S25 ultra reuses the S23 ultra's main sensor. All while everyone else is pushing for 1 inch sensors to be mainstream. A side by side comparison easily identifies the S25 ultra as substandard in photography.
The S25 ultra's also drops Bluetooth spen. This is an objective fact.
Also the charging is slow as hell. We have been getting 45W since the S22 ultra. This is just laziness.

Anyone else having issues with the battery, I upgraded from 24 Ultra and I think 24 ultra had a better battery. Samsung really needs to work on bigger batteries, they are still scared about Note 7 batteries catching fires. 5000mah is not enough battery for a phone this size.

The upgrade was easily worth it to me. Especially since it only cost me around $150 after trade in, e-Gift card, reward dollars, and cash back.
But everything I use with my S25 Ultra has either been faster and/or better than my S24 Ultra.

Someone bought to me S22 Ultra which is not original.
Now am usin... moreDont upgrade to 25 Ultra if you already own 24 ultra. Hardly anything has been changed except for 1) Rounded corners 2) SOC 3) New 50 mp ultra wide camera. Rest everything remains the same. I have upgraded from Note 9 released back in 2018 so for me it was a huge upgrade. Also the Spen does not have bluetooth which the S24 ultra has.
So wait till next year if Samsung Opts for the New SI- Carbon battery which is a lot power efficent and new SOC will also help improve battery life of the phone.
Thats all. Hope you understand my point. 😁😁

Now am usin... moreI would say check the camera its often a potatoe, but for that you need to purchase the fake device wich you should never do.
There is a whole range of checkpoints so google or youtube is your friend.
But seriously buy at 1) Samsung or 2) provider or 3) very good and famous webshop. If that's too expensive for Ultra forget about it and get an A55 or A56 from said above options. Simple.

Lackluster camera system that gets stomped by chinese counterparts like oppo,vivo and xiaomi.

Still costs wayy more than the competiton.
Dissapointing release from samsung yet again. No amount of software will fix the lackluster hardware.

If you cant afford a $1300 flagship then stop whinning about it. I am enjoying this phone even though it has some flaws. Learn to appreciate what these companies are providing you. Not a single flagship these days are having SD slot or 3.5 mm jack. The reason they have removed is because SD slot makes the phone more laggy and slow and 3.5 mm jack is is outdated just like you and your thoughts. If you still want these features in a flagship go build your own company.

Samsung note screens are double screens and has one extra matrix layer for spen touch fonctionality, aple can only dream about it!
For some other components you mention old or new, well samsung is choosing components for best compatibility with the rest of hardware they won't release best phone with newest hardware and beta driver software having issues like iphone does release them and takes ages fixing updates!

Both Apple and Samsung, now both seem to be running out of ideas for flagship phone designs, just look at the last 4 or 5 years, every year the design always changes. Unlike now where it's been 3 or 4 generations and it's still the same, both in terms of design and the addition of features, even then it's a little
