Guy tested 4k60fps, yes you can switch lenses at this framerate at 4K now, exactly what I've been waiting for
Camera is looking good in this seems better than the s23u with the 50mp lens and this is before updates, the s23u improved quite a bit over the year.. https://youtu.be/PECvx3BZnOs?si=KFMx7CXwjTw6sHMY

Definitely going to be place an order this evening for one. Been looking at cases and noticed Spigen have released this: https://www.spigen.com/collections/...case-slim-armor-magfit?variant=41920504692783
Am I right in thinking they're trying to make MagSafe products work on a Samsung device or am I missing something? It's a bit clunky looking but I quite like the colour and being magnetic for dash holders etc. could be quite useful. Failing that I think I'll just go for a Caseology Parallax or a Spigen Neo Hybrid. The S22U Neo Hybrid got a slating hence the change to Caseology but always been a Spigen fan.

Put it into the area for "redeem voucher" on the Samsung website at checkout.

I think the question was if you'd already pre-ordered - at which point you can't use it. You'll need to cancel and order again.
After? You can't apply it retrospectively

Even with Camera assistant and the sharpness control it's still bad! Granted it's not as bad, but it's still not greatBut they did listen, they released Camera Assistant which is an addon that adds more features into the camera with a specific setting for the sharpness control:
Camera Assistant then continued to get updates with new features like optical quality 2x toggle in the main viewfinder, high res settings and so on.
Edit*
Samsung cat on twitter just posts whatever bit of info streamed into their inbox that day. I don't think they are an actual user of these features, at least not to any semi-professional level anyway in terms of photography.
I also refer to the S23 thread where I've been posting photos I take with it from day 1, and from day 1 I was getting pro results which only further improved as time went on.The exact same will happen with the S24 now.
Just as I thought. Waste of £50 then
I had the S7 and S10 before switching to Pixel 7 last year. Sure there are neat features on the Pixel, but the 2 things that I preferred on my Samsung phones were: Better camera and Better screens..
To me photos taken on my S10 were better than the Pixel 7.
The brightness on my Pixel7 needs to stay on full in order for me to see anything outdoor (and im not talking direct sunlight).
I am tempted to switching back to the S24, but I need to find a good deal, and unfortunately Samsung dont trade in on the Pixel 7, so I need to sell it elsewhere, which adds to the hassle.
I am also not bothered with keeping the Pixel, its not a bad phone.
If you have it going spare, i could use it as i'm looking to order the phone.

Send it into recycling, you can get £202 currently for it, maybe more on other sites: https://www.compareandrecycle.co.uk/mobile-phones/google-pixel-7

Samsung direct online.
I've just checked on phone recycling and these sites are offering basically double the price for my S23 Ultra and now I'm wondering if I should bother sending the phone in for the trade-in, let Samsung charge me the £370 and just sell the phone to the sites and get even more money back??
EDIT*
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO I made a mistake
My trade-in shows S22 Ultra, not S23, even though it accepted my S23 Ultra's IMEI.. I need to contact Samsung to get that changed as the trade-in value should be £550 as it turns out!

See post below, clarified

I saw a Samsung friend referral on this thread this morning for 10% off. I've sat twiddling my thumbs all day, came to order the S24 and it says the code has already been redeemed.
Does anyone have another one they wish to share please?
