Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra 512GB/256GB
Overall great but not perfect

I had chosen the violet colour for a change from the standard black and is looks classy in the flesh.
One continuing trend is the camera lenses stick out of the phone body so when you put it down, you have to put it face down or on the lenses. A worry is, over time, small nicks may start to appear.
Size jumps again from my previous phone and I think this is the largest I would get before having to use two hands for everything. Memory size is 512Mb, so hopefully it will be a while to fill it, probably the reason why there is no memory card slot.
Transferring over wasnt as seemless as it should be. The transfer app doesn’t give clear enough instructions moving from a different make. But with trial and error, the phone was fully up and running.
Its got the latest Samsung version of android. But they have duplicated some apps which is a bit confusing, ie messages and everything will ask you to use samsung pass. New features are circle to search which I think will be useful, you can choose more than one finger for the fingerprint screen lock and Windows link so you can use your pc/laptop to work your phone etc.
The screen and camera are excellent and are a clear improvement from my old phone. Even the maximum zoom is clear, low light photos are great.
There are now so many features now that it would be helpful if phone providers gave a comprehensive manual to help users make the best use of all the features.
Summary
An excellent phone with minor niggles in setting up and samsungs desire to control our data. Would I buy one again taking everything into account? Yes.
