Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories.

There is no denying that the Galaxy S24 is one of the best series in the market at the time of writing. Samsung really hit it out of the park with how good these phones are. Despite the phones looking nearly identical to their predecessors, Samsung has made a lot of changes and added a lot of improvements. Now, a new report shows how Samsung's latest and greatest has managed to outperform the Galaxy S23 series as well as the Galaxy S22 series in terms of units shipped. The Galaxy S24 Ultra managed to make up 52% of the total […]
The Galaxy S24 Ultra uses a more improved 200-megapixel camera than the Galaxy S23 Ultra, and it is easily one of the most capable cameras that we have recently found in any smartphone. Now, a new report suggests that the same camera sensor could find its way into the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 6, and if that is the case--Samsung will be fixing one of the main concerns with its foldable phone lineup. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 with a powerful camera system is exactly what Samsung users are looking for in the upcoming foldable The tip is coming from […]
Samsung adopted titanium for its top-end Galaxy S24 Ultra, showing that it too, can switch to a newer material to appease customers and stay competitive with Apple. However, there are various quality tiers of titanium, and according to the latest teardown that also involved the use of advanced machinery, it was found that Samsung’s flagship uses inferior titanium compared to what Apple incorporated last year. Galaxy S24 Ultra uses Grade 2 titanium, which is ‘almost’ pure but inferior compared to what the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max have After taking the Galaxy S24 Ultra through a gauntlet […]
The Galaxy S24 Ultra might have been able to last longer than the iPhone 15 Pro Max in a previous battery drain test, but Apple’s top-end flagship retains its title of being the speed test king by beating Samsung’s latest and greatest flagship. However, both handsets were ‘neck and neck’ against one another and it could have been anyone’s day. Galaxy S24 Ultra narrowly misses victory against the iPhone 15 Pro Max by barely three seconds The iPhone 15 Pro Max and Galaxy S24 Ultra represent the very best in flagship smartphone technology, with PhoneBuff returning with a speed test […]
The Galaxy S24 Ultra has so far impressed us with its durability, despite transitioning to a titanium chassis this year, as Samsung’s flagship has survived a series of drop and scratch tests. Although it has received an IP68 dust and water-resistance rating, one YouTuber decided to take things up a notch by freezing the 6.8-inch handset for six hours to see if it survives. Fortunately, the Galaxy S24 Ultra was not alone in this trial because the iPhone 15 Pro Max and Pixel 8 Pro faced the same challenge. All three flagships endured the 6-hour freeze test, including the Galaxy […]
The Galaxy S24 Ultra debuted with Gorilla Glass Armor protecting the device, and the company did not make a big deal out of it as it should have. Ever since the official announcement, we have been seeing tests done to test just how good this new technology is. At first, we saw that the new Gorilla Glass Armor actually prevents a lot of reflections on the screen, improving the visibility to an excellent degree. Then, we saw the phone go through a pretty painful test where the screen was rubbed against a lot of sand, and it still managed to […]
Samsung’s switch to titanium did not make the Galaxy S24 Ultra drastically lighter than the Galaxy S23 Ultra, but what it did do was make it more durable. Pair the new chassis with the latest Gorilla Glass Armor, and you have one of the strongest flagships made this year, as showcased by one YouTuber, who performed a series of drop and scratch tests on Samsung’s premiere handset. Though cracks appear after a single drop, it is not a complete disaster with the Galaxy S24 Ultra The drop tests were recorded by the YouTube channel PBKreviews, which quickly gained notoriety by […]
If I am to crown the smartphone of the year, it will most definitely be the Galaxy S24 Ultra. My love for Samsung aside, I think this is one of the most complete, if not the most complete, smartphones available on the market. It shows that Samsung has finally perfected the design that it had been trying to go for since the launch of the Galaxy S20 series. The Galaxy S24 Ultra emerges victorious from a drop and scratch test The Galaxy S24 Ultra brings a lot of goodness to the table, including stuff like a titanium frame, a completely […]
At $1,299, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is already one of the more expensive smartphones in the market. Although the price could be justified in several ways, it is safe to say that smartphones are only getting more and more expensive. However, Caviar believes that what is already expensive can be made even more expensive. Have enough money to buy 10 Galaxy S24 Ultra phones? Why not buy this limited edition by Caviar for $15,070 Caviar is a luxury smartphone customizer that has decided to take the Galaxy S24 Ultra and give it a makeover into something called Year of the […]
When announcing the Galaxy S24 Ultra, Samsung talked about the new Gorilla Glass Armor, which is the new material found on the latest flagship, and Samsung talked about how it worked closely with Corning to ensure the best possible clarity on a screen. The Gorilla Glass Armor used on the Galaxy S24 Ultra is revolutionary when it comes to reducing screen reflections One of the highlight features of the Gorilla Glass Armor on the Galaxy S24 Ultra is the fact that it can reduce up to 75% of reflections on the screen, aside from being more durable than normal glass.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra and iPhone 15 Pro Max use varying internal memory standards, with Samsung’s flagship relying on UFS technology, whereas Apple employs NVMe storage in all of its devices. Irrespective of which variant is used, both deliver fast read and write speeds, but it is the Galaxy S24 Ultra that takes the ‘win’ in this column because, in a new benchmark, its storage is shown to be up to 75 percent faster, not to mention the device touts lower latency. Galaxy S24 Ultra can reach 2.5GB/s read speeds with its next-generation UFS storage, with the iPhone 15 Pro […]
Among the various features of the Galaxy S24 Ultra that the company heavily marketed, including that titanium finish, surprisingly, its anti-reflective coating did not make the cut for some reason. In the latest comparison, Samsung’s flagship has basically no competition in this space. Even the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which competes with the latest model in terms of an overall package and sports the same titanium chassis, fails miserably. With the Always On Display mode active, the anti-reflective coating of the Galaxy S24 Ultra stands out even more In a side-by-side comparison, various current-generation smartphones are placed right next to […]
