Please revise these tests. I previously mentioned that these results, particularly those in comparison to the iPhone 15 Pro Max, appear incorrect. The battery life grade should be 95 points due to its faster charging, similar battery protections, and superior battery life compared to the Pro Max. I've personally tested this, as have numerous YouTubers. When set to max resolution, the performance is identical on a day-to-day basis. When reduced to FullHD+, like 90% of other flagship phones, its performance arguably improves. The camera score of 84 is, in my opinion, an unfounded low rating. I suspect that DXOMark is biased in their tests, particularly against Samsung phones, simply because they do not favor the software and UI. This dislike for the UI, however, should not influence the camera's score. Take pictures under the same lighting conditions for an unbiased analysis. I strongly believe that the camera grade should be 89 points. This phone does not take inferior photos compared to the Xiaomi 14 Pro, despite what the results suggest. Both phones use Samsung camera sensors and, as your own side-by-side comparison suggests, the Samsung camera possesses greater clarity and less blur. Despite this clearly superior camera performance, the Xiaomi 14 Pro somehow has a score of 91 points, and the Samsung, with arguably better camera and sensor quality, is given only 84 points. Clearly, these scores need reconsideration. I encourage others to upvote this post to challenge this apparent favoritism against genuinely impressive phones. The brand shouldn't matter—it's highly unlikely Apple or Samsung are funding these reviews. I urge you to maintain professionalism and eliminate this bias. Once these issues are addressed, I will only have even greater confidence in this site.

The S24 Ultra is practically a 100% copy of the iPhone 15 Pro Max. I'm weary of Android phone companies habitually following in Apple's footsteps. 1. Titanium body just like iPhone. 2. Flat screen/display similar to iPhone. 3. Android adopts Apple's iOS-like full wallpaper, always-on display. 4. Unjust $100 price increase, from $1200 to $1300, mimicking Apple's pricing pattern. 5. They changed to a 5x telephoto lens (downgrading from 10x just to mirror the iPhone 15 Pro Max.) 6. The new OneUI 6.1 is an 80% replica of iOS 17. 7. Android also removed the charger from the box, a concept originated by Apple. 8. Like Apple devices, Android phones too lack a headphone jack. 9. I also noticed that the S24 Ultra maintains the same design as last year's S23 Ultra. People are hesitant to buy an Android phone priced at $1300 when the Pixel 8 is $700 cheaper. I bought the S23 Ultra for $1200, and quite often, my friends question why I opted for what they perceive as a cheap Android model, instead of an iPhone. Although the S23 Ultra is pricier than the iPhone 15 Pro Max, many still believe Android phones to be less valued. Android companies appear to be ceaselessly following Apple's lead. Could it be because even they recognize that Apple is superior? I have resolved never to purchase another Android phone. Advice: Please refrain from purchasing $1300 Android devices. People just don't get it and this might inadvertently make you feel inferior. If you have $1300 to spend, consider purchasing the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which only costs about $1200.

iPhones are for simpletons. Their limitations are glaring: limited features, a dated design, and a hefty price tag. It's crystal clear that Apple has been copying numerous features and concepts throughout its existence. It's time to stop pretending and refrain from blind hero-worship of Apple. Even you are aware that as an Apple product, the once incredibly optimized iPhone now lacks significantly in comparison to some Android counterparts. Their strongest competitor is undoubtedly the Samsung Galaxy. To me, using an iPhone now seems akin to carrying a useless logo that lacks an array of features. Wake up, simpletons. Is it too hard for you to adapt to a more comprehensive, feature-packed and modern OS? Well, if that's the case, then by all means, retreat to your half-eaten Apple emblem. We don't even care.

What about the S Pen, ultrasonic fingerprint, and Dex support? The iPhone cannot match these features. In addition to these, Samsung phones provide seamless connectivity to Windows. There's also a wide range of devices priced from cheap to expensive, targeting maximum users and catering to their diverse preferences. Unlike Apple, Samsung doesn't limit you to only expensive models. Even after purchasing, you have the choice of opting for various series like M, F, S, and FE. On the other hand, iPhone models just keep getting more expensive.

The most amazing thing is that Apple would never do such a thing as stealing from Android.

1. Samsung was working on a titanium body before Apple implemented it. 2. The flat screen is primarily used because the S-pen becomes difficult to use on edges, and the screen protectors often fall off. 3. Apple copied Android's always-on display feature, that's a fact. 4. To some users, the S24 is a significant upgrade from the S23, mainly due to seven years and seven generations of OS and security updates, as well as their everyday convenience thanks to "AI". 5. There was a substantial gap from 3x to 10x zoom, so a 50mp periscope camera has been used for the 5x zoom, providing a better resolution. Some might argue that the 10x is better on the S24U. 6. Are you upset because they're trying to improve their phones? Many people want the best phone. Why dismiss the improvements Samsung has made simply because they're similar to IOS 17? Isn't competition important? 7. This strategy aims to address the growing problem of electronic waste and unnecessary duplication of these items. 8. They're striving to make their phones smaller and thinner all around. Plus, USB-C earphones are becoming more common. 9. Just like the last five generations of iPhone, Samsung phones have also evolved.

What you're saying makes almost no sense. If someone goes out biking and then someone else went out biking too, does that mean the second person is definetly and intentionally copying the first person or did they go biking bc they just feel like it? Yes, I am 100% sure companies copy each other every once in a while but you're exagerating a lot. 1. I agree 2. This doesn't mean that they did it just to copy Apple. 3. mabye 4. I can't say anything about prices cuz that annoys me too. 5.The camera didn't change because of apple, did you ever think they wanted to do it, just Apple did it faster? 6. The new One UI 6.1 is not EVEN CLOSE to IOS 17.5. Do you even hear yourself? 7. Just as I said before, if someone did it first, that doesn't mean the other person didn't want to do it before too. 8. Exactly like 7 9. "A company changing it's design every year means they don't have confidence in their builds. Sticking to one and upgrading it over the time is the company having confidence in their own making" -Someone idk
