Samsung Galaxy S24 Family Thread

Samsung frustrate me, They now have the S24 ultra with the 44mm Galaxy Watch 6 lte again. After i was told yesterday they dont have any stock so i went with the Watch 5 Pro lte and the pro buds 2.

Dont know if i should kick off and try and get them to change the free items (i have 1st gen buds already)
 
Samsung Pay v Google Pay, is there a preference or does it not really matter? I've come from iPhone so I've never used either of those.

The 5 pro is said to have better battery life than the GW6

Yeah I saw. Still set on the fence trying to deside to sell it or not. Received the Ultra and Buds 2 pro today and got everything set up and done my cashback

EDIT: Really nice touch on my trade in they send you the bag and label and seems you can get royal mail to collect it for free.

I used to use Samsung pay, but my Tesco card never worked on it, so needed a 'curve' card as well.
Once Google wallet took my Tesco card, I use that now and ditched the Curve account.
Can't swipe up to open it, like you can with Samsung pay, but I just set Google pay on the bottom left thing on the lock screen, or power button double press on the home screen.

But overall, I don't think theres much difference

Ok thanks. I've just realised my bank doesn't support Samsung Pay, but does support Google Pay. Shame really as I liked the idea of Samsung wallet being all in one with everything else.

I did prompt me that I can use Curve which is a work around so I can still use Samsung wallet, but I've read it isn't regarded as safe, could be a security risk? Or is that bs?

Don't know, I used it with no issues, I was using it at work and the occasional shop.
But I guess it's another way in!
 
When I upload photos that I've taken with my phone, the colour of the image becomes dull and loses vibrancy compared to what it actually looks like in my gallery. I've tried Imgur and others and still the same.

Am I doing something wrong? Not had this issue before on my previous phone.

HDR compatability.

The gallary app supports it. Most other platforms don't.

The beauty of google pay is you don't need to open anything! No apps or anything! This is why I moved from Samsung pay.

As long as your phone is unlocked, it will work. On any screen.

So all you need to do, is take out of your pocket. Unlock, then hold to the terminal to pay. You dont need to open the app, while paying...or ever really!
