The video highlights several features of the S24 Ultra that make it a better choice, including display quality, design simplicity, camera hardware and software, the S Pen, Samsung Dex, Galaxy AI, and ecosystem integration.
Why does the speaker consider the display of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra superior to that of the iPhone 16 Pro Max?
-The speaker considers the display of the S24 Ultra superior due to its anti-reflective coating and Gorilla Glass armor coating. These features provide a clearer view with reduced reflections, especially in outdoor or bright environments. The S24 Ultra also boasts high brightness levels (2600 nits) and adaptive controls, further enhancing the display experience.
What design advantages does the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra have over the iPhone 16 Pro Max, according to the speaker?
-The S24 Ultra's design is described as more minimal and clean, with fewer buttons on the side (only volume and power buttons) compared to the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which includes multiple buttons (action, capture, volume, and power buttons). The S24 Ultra also has a small punch-hole camera instead of Apple's Dynamic Island, providing a more immersive display.
How does the camera hardware of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra compare to that of the iPhone 16 Pro Max?
-The S24 Ultra's camera hardware is considered more flexible, offering four cameras with various zoom ranges (0.6x, 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x) and a laser autofocus module. This provides more versatility and control over photography compared to the iPhone 16 Pro Max's camera system, which lacks such range and flexibility.

Transcripts
Apple just announced the iPhone 15s Pro
Max sorry 16 Pro Max but the s24 ultra
despite launching in January is still
the smartphone to be let's
go so hopefully I can wake you all up
after that Apple event it wasn't a lot
to it first reason why the s44 ultra is
still better than the iPhone 16 Pro Max
is the display yes Apple have Shrunk The
bezels to near impossible thinness and I
get it that looks appealing but there's
something that that display is missing
it's the anti-reflective coating the
gorilla glass armor coating on top of
the display on the s24 ultra compromised
nothing about the display everything
about the colors the brightness it's all
still there and you get the added
advantage of seeing everything a lot
clearer because there's no Reflections
getting in the way this whole time I've
used the s24 ultra this an reflective
coding has been a Savor of my experience
of the display because whe whe you're
Outdoors whether you're indoors you do
not get Reflections showing on this
thing and even when you compare to
something like the fold six you can see
the reflections are just so much less
harsh on the s24 ultra than what they
are on the Zen fold 6 so the display
number one and that's not even
accounting for the 2600 P nits
brightness or things like the Adaptive
brightness and adaptive controls it's
just about this coding that's what sets
it apart number two is the design yes
Apple have introduced this new capture
button but what Samsung have got here is
minimess design the floating cameras
aren't sort of intrusive the design on
the side is clean you've only got really
two buttons the volume control and the
power button Apple have got the the
action button the power button the
volume button and now this capture
button there's a lot going on but you
can also program Samsung's buttons the
volume controls in the camera can
actually be used as a capture button so
yes I understand Apple's capture button
has some more granular stuff that isn't
available at launch by the way and the
volume controls can just do a lot more
right now you can actually capture it
zoom in and out there's a lot of things
you can program here so that whole
design facet of it being sort of clean
and minimal I prefer that over Apple
just adding things and making the design
a little bit more convoluted especially
on the on the sides and on the frame
also as well you have no Dynamic Island
intruding on any of your content it's
just a tiny punch hole camera that just
makes the front display look like near
immersive third one is camera Hardware
now I know Apple have just upgraded
their ultrawide camera and I get it
Ultra wide camera does look very good
but it still doesn't provide the
flexibility of cameras in terms of
Hardware than what Samsung has got the
four cameras on the back plus the laser
autofocus module do give you the
ultimate ability to go from that Ultra
wide through to 10 times and Beyond and
anywhere in between and capture a really
good photo you've got high resolution
you've got that Zoom range it's all kind
of packed in there thanks to the
hardware and the little unsung hero
mixed in the lot is this three times
camera whilst it doesn't get I think the
respect it deserves probably because
it's couple years old now the fact it's
there is what truly sets it apart
because you do have 0.6 1 2 3 5 and then
10 and anywhere in between that range is
going to be good thanks to the Hardware
on board and number four when you add in
camera software that's where it truly
elevates the Samsung camera experience
Samsung don't just give you good camera
hardware and let it go they add in the
plethora of software modes that you
could take advantage of this year in
particular with the s24 ultra they
stacked it things like dual recording
which allows you to record from two rear
cameras at the same time in 4k so you
can capture footage at two different
angles from the Native camera app modes
like Auto framing which turn your s24
Ultra into like a tracking camera just
from sitting still it can track and and
monitor people around in the frame and
sort of keep them in the view single
take my most used favorite camera mode
for taking photos of my kids because I
just let them be kids and single take
does the rest pro video mode where you
can have granular controls over things
it's all in there the camera modes are
extensive and Samsung will let you have
them as long for accounting for the fact
that Apple just announced things like 4K
120 FPS which Samsung have now had this
year in pro video mode and in slow
motion so Samsung have had these and
don't really make a big deal out of them
but to Apple they're huge because
they've never had them before number
five it is the ESP pen This truly sets
this apart not just from Apple and
iPhone but from any phone because this S
Pen tucked away neatly in the phone sort
of compromises nothing in terms of
performance but expands your capability
of what the phone can do not only do you
have all of the productivity features
that the Spen gives you things like
Samsung Notes where you can use it to
take down all your notes and all the
tools that Samsung give you surrounding
it but now the new Galaxy AI features
that have just been updated to one UI
6.1.1 means you can sketch to draw
things on top of photos and make them
come to life but also the fact that you
can use this as a remote so you don't
need some camera shutter button you can
actually use your Spen as a remote
shutter but this remote S Pen also works
in other things like PowerPoint
presentations which just expands again
that capability of what this pen can do
and what the phone can do and part of
that I guess productivity sort of piece
is Samsung Dex at number six for me it
is still the most undervalued Samsung
feature of all time because you can take
your phone and turn it into your PC
using peripherals using really anything
that's around you whether it be the
monitor that I've got behind me whether
it be this TV here or whether it be
things like laptops which you can find a
link for in the description you can turn
your phone into your portable laptop
that you take around with you anyway and
I get it you can oh just just get a
tablet but the fact is that Samsung de
transforms and uses the power of your
phone and everything that's in your
pocket to then turn it into something
more there's a reason why Apple won't do
this they're worried about cannibalizing
sales of their other product lines
that's not Samsung's Vibe their Vibe is
to give you the technology and you
decide what you want to do with it and I
appreciate that number seven is Galaxy
Ai and I get it Apple now got Apple
intelligence but it's one still in beta
and two not launching in a lot of
markets till much much later Samsung's
Galaxy AI is here all of the features
they've given it to you and with the new
update that's just hit the s24 ultra you
have all the stuff from the fold six on
board as well so you've got so much AI
features you can take advantage of
whether it be composing messages in the
keyboard whether it be sketching to draw
things and turning them into real life
pictures or paintings you've got that
option there and they're truly useful
productivity features to marry alongside
that inside things like Samsung Notes
and Samsung internet Galaxy AI is a huge
part of the Galaxy ecosystem now and I
think for me Samsung put meaningful
stuff in here to make it better and it's
available of course available is better
than not available number eight is one
UI animation's aside and really it's not
the biggest of deal the animations serve
a good purpose and Samsung's animations
are fluid that's all you need to know
one UI just offers so much more it's so
feature dense all the customization
options that you get natively and then
extend it in through goodlock as well
all the multitasking and productivity
features with split screen popup Windows
Edge panels that's all part of the oneui
experience and it's very much in Focus
here on the s24 ultra lots of people
talk about Samsung being difficult to
master in terms of can't really get
around the software that easily but
Apple's becoming like that too the
difference is Apple have sort of limits
on their iOS capability where Samsung
don't really have them what you can do
in oneui is bigger than what you can do
in iOS one UI can be made more
comprehensive and to be honest users
should want that they should want to
have the software become their own not
have controls and limits by Apple number
nine is ecosystem you might think I'm a
bit crazy to say that the s24 ultra and
the ecosystem surrounding Samsung is
better than what Apple can offer you but
when you consider that Samsung's
ecosystem isn't just the Smartwatch the
phone the tablet the buds the laptops
it's the home it's smart things and the
appliances and TVs and air conditioners
that are part of the whole smart things
framework that Apple just can't have
Samsung isn't just a mobile phone
company they have everything you can can
possibly imagine under their name and
they all connect and work seamlessly and
it's all housed inside smart things that
is an ecosystem that is a brand
ecosystem and no other brand will ever
be able to match it and the last one is
performance you might think I'm crazy
especially is because Apple announced
this new chip every year it's 30% faster
it's two times neural engine all of the
marketing words that they love you to to
know about but what it doesn't account
for is what you can actually do with
that performance Apple's IOS software as
stated before is limiting they don't
allow you to take advantage of what's
available Samsung with its performance
of the hn3 for Galaxy whilst its raw
performance probably doesn't match that
of the a18 its capabilities of what they
allow you to do with it is much greater
features like Samsung Dex which I spoke
about the S Pen which sits in here 8K
video recording at 30 FPS at 1X and at
5x that's all available because Samsung
push it to its limits and put the
software in instead of slowly drip
feeding it to you over a 10-year life
cycle Samsung's got better RAM
management The Thermals have notoriously
always been better because they put in
the cooling solutions to bring the heat
of the phone down batter's kind of
become a thing recently too whilst a few
years ago the iPhone 13 was a huge
battery Advantage it hasn't really sort
of kept up that lead and I think whilst
the s24 ultra has had its issues with
battery I still think its overall
battery package is a better solution
things like even though it's a slight
Advantage 45 W fast charging or the fact
that you can Power share off the back of
your s24 Ultra for your ecosystem like
your buds and well not not this anymore
but you get my point so look I kind of
wanted to do this because I think people
forget s for Ultra coming out in January
people forget the the stuff that it
brings the camera modes and the hardware
changes that it's brought into Market
because Apple's got this shiny new thing
and this new button everyone's going to
forget and you'll see a lot of videos
where they won't even mention the s24
ultra and some of the things that it's
got ahead of what Apple have done argue
in the comments let me know what you
think if there's any other things I've
missed out or if there's stuff from
Apple that you think is better feel free
to drop it in the comments hit subscribe
and I'll see you guys in the next one
you
