Samsung Galaxy S25 Family Thread

Thanks, its an aramid case, have you ever compared them with Pitaka?
Yes and have used a number of Pitaka ones in recent years. Have found the Pitaka ones to be extremely thin and brittle, and can easily mark/break/crack when taking the case on/off a phone. Have been using the Latercase ones since around the time of the Pixel 6, on various Android and Apple phones. Never had issues with drops so far, but I do use a screen protector alongside the Aramid cases.

My cashback has not tracked, so I need to apply for Missing Cashback Claim, I assume it will take a lot longer but it better than nothing.

What should I put in the purchase amount ? I had a 15% and discount vouchers. applied.

Should I put the discount 15% off, with the voucher discount or with trade in ?
?

Its done after all discounts and trade ins. In essence what you physically paid Samsung.

The price you paid on the day you bought it, not including trade-in, since you may never send those you paid the full amount, so cashback is calculated against what went out of your bank etc.
 
It really is highly amusing that Samsung can't take a blur free shot of a moving object on its flagship phone. What a farce.

Just seen a video where it works absolutely spot on in pro mode and selecting a faster shutter speed. Just annoying that the standard mode is still a bit pap. Bit useless for those moments where an opportunity arises to take that snap

It's exactly that. All that AI and they can't suss when they need to whack up that shutter speed in auto. It's utter incompetence.
 
I've also noticed the option for pinning live scores for football option from Google is no longer there. Still works on my tablet which is still one UI 6. Hope they add it back in an update to the Google app.
 
S25

  • Subjectively it feels lighter, even though it just a few grams lighter. Conclusion, its the thinner body
  • Build quality identical to previous versions
  • Reduction in app grid spacing options bad, just wait until it comes to millions of v6 users
  • Much more battery information
  • Can you swipe to the app draw when swiping up? It now goes to general search, edit, you can stop this in home screen settings "search from home" but it simple disables the swipe up action
  • No autofocus on wide lens feeling very old now
  • Is the default font smaller?
  • Battery percentage harder to see
  • No day one patching for a change, but I'm sure one will appear shortly

Yeah, that’s horrendous. How are they not fixing this
Sadly it's the same every year since they started using the horrendous 200mp sensor, promised to fix it on the s22U, s23U and s24U, never did so refused to buy the s25u

Sadly looks like exactly the same issue , great for still but when you have young children and pets it's pure luck unless you really mess around with all the camera settings
 
The camera rings are just glued on. :rolleyes:

Why is this a problem? They're decorative aren't they?

What does 'the camera rings are fake!' even mean? Were people expecting them to do something clever?

He's near enough pulling the back of the phone out trying to pry them off, so it's not like they're going to be prone to just falling off.

People on YouTube will moan about anything for views I guess
