Anybody struggling to preorder because of the downgraded form factor?

Don't do it your gonna regret it, lol , but if that's your decision I'll respect that.

Lol!!!! Yeah, I'm holding. 24U is a beast and I still use my buds live.

Can't deny the good deals though....

Some of you are really exaggerating the similarities between the S25U and the iPhone 16 Pro Max.

If anything, the S25U is much closer in appearance to its predecessor.

It's not a Ultra Note look, should be squared and squared in my opinion looks way better, lots will agree with that.

I love the looks of my S24U, but unfortunately Samsung has us by the balls (or ovaries). I don't like the issues with the oleophobic coating having worn off and now I'm stuck using a screen protector which restored the slick feel for swyping but now I've got massive glare.

I also think Samsung did a piss poor job with an underperforming camera setup. Admittedly, the 25U is marginally better in terms of hardware, but nonetheless, there are improvements as shown in reviews.

Lastly, I'm a Samsung Galaxy addict and not quite ready to go to rehab.

Exactly this. I really hate the "oh they're just like Apple". It does not even match design wise. I understand you don't like the design but let us enjoy it. There are most post about I'm not upgrading I'm not upgrading. Well good go back to the S24 forum and leave us waiting on the S25U in peace

Too many people living in the past....pretty sure the almighty Note was killed and will never return. Might be time for many to switch to Apple

Haha the Note20 which was the last one with sd card.

 

[Trail Boss]

SD card? That is something from the past for phones. Dash cams still use them.

However, that does bring up a question; why does the S25U appear to have a SIM card slot? I thought SIM cards were going the way or the SD card and Ear Phone Jack.

Good hands on. He answered all the things I could already tell. Thinner bezels than previous models. Feels better in the hand (thanks to the rounded edges). Also lighter while feeling premium. Love that most reviewers are praising the new speakers. I just can't wait to get mines so I can run it through my own paces

I love the look and actually ordered mine. Can't wait. Done with the square outdated look. Hopefully next year the innovate a bit and refine the look.

 

[jeetu4444]

I had a hands on with the S25 ultra
But in front of the S24 ultra it looks just like any other phone in the market
S24 ultra design stood out from the crowd
And with Bluetooth removed ?
Gonna stick with S24 ultra for one more year
Newaz we have 7 years of Os update
Let's see what S26 ultra holds

When I was saying it looks like an iPhone, I meant iPhone. Not iPhone Max. That's the saddest part. The "flagship" samsung device, looks like a basic iPhone.

That makes no sense because the front of both of the devices you name look alike . If we're going to say what the front looks like it actually looks like their A71 phone what was released in 2024.

 

[Trail Boss]

I still fail to see how the back of a S25U looks like the back of any iPhone. Those camera lenses stick out like a flare on a dark night. iphone has two. If looking for a unique phone look, the roulette wheel on the OnPlus is the one to go to.
