Hi, welcome back. I'm a donkey. This year's Galaxy S24 Ultra actually has many surprises in actual measurements besides the specifications. I think the mobile phones of the past two years have this characteristic, that is, it is increasingly difficult for the book specifications to reflect the actual experience of the mobile phone , especially One UI 6.1 has a lot of small details on the system , so I will also help you sort out the 10 must-see highlights, including the highlights of specifications, the advantages and disadvantages of experience, and what everyone is most concerned about, the actual performance of the 5X telephoto, we will also directly Prepare the S20 Ultra, S21 Ultra , S22 Ultra, S23 Ultra, and S24 Ultra, and then pair them with the latest Pixel 8 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro for a comprehensive comparison. After all, friends who have used telephotos know that it is not easy to focus and stabilize dynamic images. Whether the speed is good or not, whether the stability function is good or not, these are the key differences. In this episode, we will talk about whether Samsung can continue to dominate the telephoto king? Finally, the performance, battery life, fast charging, color gamut and color accuracy of the screen , and the super strong screen brightness this time are not exaggerated. It’s really awesome. In this episode, we will take you all to see how the Galaxy S24 Ultra, Samsung’s first 2024 flagship phone equipped with Galaxy AI, actually performs . Sit tight and let’s start with the appearance. We only focus on the key points and want to see more details. You can watch our last hands-on video of the Galaxy S24 Ultra. It has three main points in appearance. First, the Galaxy S24 Ultra once again debuts Corning’s latest generation of Gorilla Glass called Corning Gorilla Armor. According to official data, this screen has a higher screen performance than competing products. Four times the scratch resistance , and this glass was developed through in-depth cooperation between Samsung and Corning. There is no news yet whether it will be released later or whether it will be exclusive to Samsung. The second important point is that Gorilla Armor has enhanced the anti-reflective effect this time , which is really great. And it’s very practical. I’ve been using it bare metal these days, so here’s a direct comparison. When facing an LED light like the ceiling, the reflection can be greatly reduced. When I read the web page and reply to messages, it has already been reduced to a range that does not affect it. To put it in vernacular , even if the light is reflected, you can reply to messages without deliberately avoiding the angle. It is also super practical outdoors. However, everyone should pay attention to the habit of Taiwanese users, which is to wear a protective sticker when they get it. Yes, you guessed this anti-reflection The effect will also disappear instantly , so you can measure it yourself. The last important point is that this time Samsung uses a titanium alloy middle frame, the overall body strength is higher , and the front becomes a flat screen. In the actual drop test, this generation is very resistant to drops , and the flat screen is One of the great advantages is that the protector is very easy to apply because the flat surface protectors that can support ultrasonic fingerprint recognition are very mature. As long as you choose a thin protector that supports fingerprint recognition, it is completely OK. In terms of peripheral selection, as usual, we are still the first to get it this year. When it comes to CASETiFY's S24 series of peripherals, what I care about most is the protective film. CASETiFY has produced a powerful HD screen protector for the S24 Ultra this time with an exclusive mold. Installation is very simple . Just wipe the phone clean and remove any dust, then put the mold cover on the phone and pull it down. Finally, touch the glass firmly from the middle of the dust removal film and it will automatically adhere to it, and the installation is complete! The most important thing is to test whether the fingerprint can be used! The speed is OK, no problem at all! For friends who are afraid that fingerprints cannot be used, CASETiFY’s actual test is OK . As for the protective cases, there are three main series: transparent, mirror and strong anti-fall stand phone cases. These three types have thousands of prints to choose from on the official website and can also be customized. The material is made of transparent materials. It is a transparent hard shell with an anti-yellow design. Finally, the mobile phone case has a strong anti-fall stand that provides 3 times military-standard fall resistance . Simply put, the lens ring has been integrated with the stand. You can stand it directly by opening the stand. Watch the video , but be aware that under ultra-wide angle, the stand will be slightly in the frame and you need to open it before shooting. But for other lenses or videos, it is fine without opening it to shoot. Finally, you can see the video. The latest Galaxy is now available on the CASETiFY official website. The protective cases and electronic accessories of the S24 series are linked to new products through the information bar. In addition, the Galaxy S24 Ultra also uses a linear motor to provide crisp and clear vibration feedback. However, the default vibration is still relatively small and can be slightly increased in the system. 24 Ultra this year It also has a built-in S Pen and the smell is very special. Well, the smell of this year’s S Pen seems to be different. I compared it with the Galaxy S23 Ultra. I like the smell of the S24 Ultra better. I was thinking that a while ago, V Agency came out to tell everyone not to use it. Let’s hear the Steam Deck outlet again. Wait a minute, Samsung will also come out and say it. Then we will go directly to the topic that everyone is most interested in, Galaxy AI . We have spent a lot of time helping everyone sort out which functions are more practical and whether they need to be connected. The Internet even published some test questions for AI to answer and other details. Although Samsung's AI is still relatively conservative , we can see that Galaxy AI is completely serious this time. It has directly brought more than a dozen actual AI applications as soon as it was unveiled. I believe this number It should continue to rise at a high speed . Especially I am very looking forward to whether Samsung , a product like Foldable that takes advantage of software, will also have corresponding AI. The gameplay is really fun. But in terms of privacy, according to Samsung's explanation, even if it has a network computing function, Samsung does not have it. The AI will be trained through the data you provide to the AI. We also found that there is an offline computing option in the system. After it is turned on, only the offline AI computing function will be left. In addition, it is mentioned on the official website that the Galaxy AI function will be available before the end of 2025. When foreign media asked Samsung about providing it for free, the answer they got was that Samsung currently has no plans after 2025, so many foreign media also interpreted it as more like Samsung guaranteeing that it will be free until at least the end of 2025 instead of only until 2025. I think this is actually still good. It's quite reasonable. If you look at ChatGPT, Bard will know that any AI service will experience rapid growth and even be used for some commercial purposes. If there is no limit set to make it permanently free, it is actually quite scary. I personally think it is more like keeping the article. After chatting and observing , Let’s talk about the first AI function called Search Circle. This service is provided in cooperation with Google, so of course it must be connected to the Internet . I believe it will be extended to more Android phones in the future . Simply put , just press and hold the bottom The navigation system will activate this magical interface Then you just need to circle what you want to know on the screen and the AI will help you find it. For example, you must be a regular user of IG or watch videos and suddenly something you are interested in but you don’t know what it is doesn’t matter and just start the search. The circle system will freeze all the pictures and circle them. AI will automatically search and not only pictures. If there is a proper noun on the video that you don't know, you can also circle it. AI will automatically recognize it as text and then search for basic information. The above is the more convenient and powerful AI version of Google Smart Lens. This is really easy to use. I feel that after using it these days, I have a lot less problems in my life . Because when I see something that interests me, I can just circle it and use one sentence. To sum up, the meaning of search circle is to make search easier and lower the threshold. Then everyone can circle it when there is nothing wrong. Small doubts can be answered more quickly. Everyone can get used to it and it will become easier to use. The second thing I want to show you is a Samsung keyboard. Heap AI also needs to be connected to the Internet. Samsung has integrated a lot of AI on the keyboard. This IDEA is quite good because as long as you press the button of Galaxy AI where you can type, AI can assist at any time. But whether it is easy to use, we will directly test it here. The first level of the AI test is called spelling and grammar correction. I wrote a short paragraph for Santa Claus. You can see that there are two punctuation marks deliberately wrong. This is super bad. I hid a lot of typos in it , and it seems that I wrote two on purpose. Instead, I finished eating the vegetables in the lunch box and then helped the old lady cross the road. The land was deliberately written incorrectly. Then, following this super detail, what I wanted to talk about was "I have done a lot of good deeds." But I deliberately wrote "I have not done many good deeds. " It's really super detailed . Then let's see if Galaxy AI can be successful. Let's see the result . Hi Santa Claus . I immediately found that the semicolon was not successful. Then look at Hi, hello. I'm a little donkey. I'm a well-behaved child. I 'm strong this year. I have done a lot of good deeds, but I have changed them into a lot. For example , I changed the lunch box from two to one vegetable after eating it , and I helped the old lady cross the road. He also made the correction successfully, so let’s take a look at it all. Only the punctuation marks have been lost. There is also a function called Smart Writer. Simply put , it helps you polish the article. There are options such as standard professional spoken emoticons and so on. For example, the standard is Santa Claus , the professional one becomes Santa Claus , and the spoken Santa Claus becomes Hello. The Santa Claus emoticon became more lively and turned into Hi Santa Claus , and then several related symbols appeared. However, the professional AI actually turned children into well-behaved employees. It seems that the AI also knows to give children a beautiful childhood and then professionally follow us. Let’s take a look at the AI of Samsung Notes. This AI has more functions. The generated part still needs to be connected to the Internet. But since the translation can be downloaded, there is no need to connect to the Internet. Let’s talk about the first one called automatic format , which means there is now a large string of text AI on the screen. It will automatically help you divide it into paragraphs and add small chapters, etc. The other one is the meeting notes. For example, in this wish list, the first paragraph is about self-introduction. The second paragraph is about houses and the third paragraph is about food. It is like the minutes of everyone's meeting. For example, this paragraph is about buying a new camera, and the second paragraph is about financial reports, etc. It is more suitable for chaotic records and let AI automatically help you judge. The next one is called a summary, which is to sort out the key points of the article that has been written. For example, it is also written like this The wish list for Santa Claus is super long, but it actually only has a few key points. In the first paragraph, I write about what good things I have done. In the second paragraph, I start to make wishes , such as asking for a house in Xinyi District, McDonald’s French fries , and then I don’t know how to make them. I lost my Bluetooth headset. Please note that the word "Bluetooth" does not have the prefix "Chu" , but the AI here has the wrong word "Bluetooth" in the original abstract , so AI will not correct it. But if you look at the originally long article, AI really remembered all the requirements correctly. After all, I think Santa Claus really needs this function. This way, it is much faster to view wishes. Then there are two functions: correction and translation, which are relatively simple. Everyone can play by themselves. Then there is also a practical AI function , which is to convert recording to text. It can be calculated locally and does not need to be connected to the Internet. Simply put, you can give the recorded audio file to AI for recognition, and then it will automatically turn it into text according to who is speaking and what is said, such as meeting minutes or class recordings that are very long . The function is quite easy to use. You can just look at the text and you can drag it to the paragraph you want at any time. This is very convenient. Currently, the accuracy of Chinese is normal when measured, but I found that the accuracy of Galaxy AI in English is really a bit weird. Ah, the next AI is exclusive to Samsung Browser. As soon as you open Samsung Browser, you can see this obvious Galaxy AI button. One of the buttons that I think is more practical is the summary function. For example, when you are reading Wikipedia, just press the summary function AI. It will sort out all the key points on the webpage . Or if you go to a film review website and want to see the introduction of the latest Oscar-nominated movies, you can also use AI to generate a summary . AI will read the entire webpage and generate a title and listed key points for you. You can even adjust the items on the upper right according to your needs and select "Details". Each text will have a more detailed description . Then you can directly click Translate AI here and it will translate the compiled summary into Chinese , as if your supervisor wants you. This function is super convenient to help sort out the key points , and it is really powerful. It can be said to be a must-have for journalists. You can just click on a PTT article and click on the summary. The super AI will automatically help you write the title. Super Iron Fist shocked all netizens: 40 I 'm 20 years old and still waiting. I want to state it first (I'm afraid of Super Iron Fist). It's none of my business what AI said. But look at this title . Is this a title that AI can come up with ? Is it really a real person and AI ? I can’t tell the difference at all, and then the AI below will understand the ins and outs and write out some key points. This is really amazing . Don’t forget, everyone, this is an AI function integrated in the mobile phone, so the standard for greatness is that it is built in by Samsung and is provided directly without any need. Then look at it through the third party standard Finally, let’s talk about the photo album AI , which has a lot of functions. The first one is smart photo editing. It is recommended that this be calculated locally. For example, if you have a reflective photo, a shadow photo, a wrong skin tone, an underexposed scene, etc. Anyway, AI will see this photo of yours. Flaws will come out on their own and you can point them out. You should give some suggestions and then you can ask AI to help you correct them according to your own needs. The second one I think is more fun is generative photo editing . This one needs to be connected to the Internet. For example, this There is a photo of a person standing in front of a building. You can move any object by just pressing the Galaxy AI button and then pressing and holding it. For example, I can make the person bigger or smaller, left or right, etc. Then I divided it into three scenarios : one is Go to the left and cover the original image slightly , then go to the right and cover the original image , and finally go all the way to the left. I empty the original image and look at the result. I think it's OK , especially this one that's completely to the left. Although the plant at the back is a bit blurry, the leaves below are a bit unnatural. But at first glance, I think it would be difficult to find out if I don’t explain it. Here we also provide a set of photos of Galaxy S24 Ultra comparing Adobe AI and Pixel 8 Pro’s AI for your reference. Samsung’s side is still vague, but it should be AI judgment. The relationship between the person in front and behind needs to be blurred , because the grass next to it is actually starting to be out of focus. However, it is not a small mistake in the front , but the shadow of the feet is very different . Although it is not normal if you look closely , Adobe The picture looks a bit like a person floating in mid-air. He didn’t take away the shadow of his feet. Pixel 8 Pro’s feet are completely miscalculated and have grown out of manhole covers. I don’t know what kind of manhole cover they are. Galaxy S24 Ultra is the most natural among them. It is also the only AI that can pull out the shadows of shoe soles. This is also a detail that humans will definitely pay attention to when retouching. What do you think of this group ? Leave a comment below . But I want to talk about one more thing , which is the experience. I will use Photoshop as an example . Photoshop is actually not the same as Samsung. To complete the operation of separating the subject and filling the background with one click, you need to first select the object, copy the object, then select the object outline to fill the background , and then select the object outline to fill the background. The operation is divided into two times , but after generating multiple sets of results, you can choose to generate three results. The most natural among them , but Samsung only needs to press and hold to select objects. In terms of experience , Samsung is still the most intuitive to hold down and let the AI judge for itself. So I will give Samsung points for experience , but I still hope to add it like the other two. The function of selecting one of two or three pictures does not need to be regenerated every time. Another interesting thing is that there will be a Galaxy AI logo in the lower left corner of the photo calculated by Galaxy AI. If you don't like it, I found that this logo can actually be used with a magic eraser. You can erase it by wiping. Next, this is super fun and really practical . Sometimes, if a photo is taken crookedly and you want to straighten it, you could only straighten it by cropping it. Now, you don’t need Galaxy AI to automatically fill it in for you. Press the AI button and directly rotate the photo. AI will automatically help you fill in the empty areas. And I found that you can superimpose infinitely. For example, if you turn a little to the left to complete the generation, then turn a little to the right to generate it . Repeat the whole picture. The photo can be expanded infinitely, and the scene will get bigger and bigger. Another small detail is that if your hand is just at the edge of the picture, Galaxy AI will be more inclined to hide the hand. For example, the hands of the model we just created are just at the edge of the photo. After the AI automatically generates Hiding the hands with clothes is really detailed. Because the way of hiding is very natural, he will not challenge the AI. It is difficult to generate hands. If you look at the same set of photos, the hands in Photoshop are obviously very unnatural. The same is true for the other set. Hand Galaxy AI turns the hand into a fist. I will also show here what will happen if the AI insists on counting the fingers. Let’s see what obviously feels weird about Photoshop, right? The last one in the album is called generative slow motion, which is also possible. For offline use, as long as you press and hold any picture in the album , the system will automatically slow down and use AI to automatically fill in the slowed down picture, so there will be no lag or unnatural situations. In the end, we Let’s play AI phone-related functions. Both of these do not require an Internet connection. They all rely on Local AI to operate. Currently, only 13 major languages are supported. Chinese is also included , but currently only Simplified Chinese. Taiwanese Samsung also said that Traditional Chinese will be available in the future. At the current stage of the project, there are two called text calls . For example, if you are in a meeting or someone suddenly calls you, you can use this function if you don’t want to talk on the phone. It is especially useful for dealing with sales calls. When you turn on the Galaxy AI call After the function, you can see the option of call assistant, and then you can choose text call or real-time translation. Speak text call first , which means that everything the other party says will be automatically converted into text , and when you reply, you only need to type and it will be OK . At the beginning, AI will automatically tell the other party that this is a warning for AI text calls. But I think this also needs to give the whole society a little time to adapt to it. After getting used to it, more and more people should use it. Another one is instant call translation AI, which will also change. As an exclusive translator, when you are talking to a foreign friend, the foreign friend will automatically translate into Chinese after the foreign friend speaks , and the Chinese you speak will also be automatically translated into foreign languages. The text will be directly displayed on the screen. This is also a trending function. I think it is You must have thought before that translation is so powerful , why can't you chat directly with foreigners using voice translation? This is a forward-looking function. When more and more people start to use AI translation to make calls in the future, they can use AI translation to chat with foreign friends. The era will come slowly , okay, AI, let’s go here first. This AI is really fun, but it has been tested for a long time. I hope everyone can see the questions that you want to know about. Then we see the screen performance that relatively few people have tested this time. The screen on the Galaxy S24 Ultra is still Samsung’s own top-notch muscle screen series Galaxy S24 Ultra uses a 2K QHD+ 120Hz O extreme full screen technology. It uses Dynamic AMOLED 2X and is also an LTPO screen. It can support a dynamic update rate from a minimum of 1Hz to a maximum of 120Hz . The system still only displays a minimum of 24Hz , but after our actual testing, the The body will indeed adjust to 1Hz in some still images to achieve power saving , and this generation of screens has two small highlights. The first is that this time among the brightness adjustment options, not only automatic brightness, Samsung has also added optimized color tone. The function is that the system will automatically adjust the white balance of the display according to the ambient color temperature through the camera . This can be turned on according to demand. Because I think most users’ feedback on automatic color temperature is still used to not letting the system adjust. Secondly, Samsung has also added interactive For Always On Display, you can see that the system can now display the full-screen wallpaper under AOD . When you light up the screen, the entire wallpaper will continue to be lit. When you unlock the screen with your fingerprint, the wallpaper on the desktop will be completely lit again. Expand so it goes directly from AOD to the desktop in one go, very comfortable. Samsung has finally caught up and this time Samsung adjusted it very smoothly. In addition, AOD has an automatic gear this time, which means you can choose to always turn it on and the system senses that the phone is placed in the bag. The AOD in your bag or pocket will automatically turn off when you take it out and it will turn into a permanent display. This is a small detail of Samsung's power saving. Let's talk about it first . Let's go directly to the actual test. First, let's measure the screen brightness. Samsung officially claims that this screen supports the highest The peak brightness of 2600 nits is the most accurate , but it was actually measured on Bonnie’s channel. We directly measured the Galaxy S24 Ultra and it can easily reach 1570 nits under all-white screen brightness. And the most powerful thing is that Samsung’s official peak brightness is not 2600. nits? But friends who are familiar with Samsung must know that Samsung is very conservative in brightness indication, which means there is definitely room for it. According to our actual measurement, the peak brightness of this screen can soar to 2942 nits, which is already close to 3000 nits. And The brightness of this screen can reach 2700 nits even with about 10% of the display area of HDR images. The brightness performance of this screen is really top-notch. However, if the brightness is not enough , we still need to look at the color gamut and color accuracy. In terms of color rendering performance, Samsung It provides two options: vivid and natural. I have tested all the display modes here. Let ’s get straight to the point
. Samsung’s natural mode corresponds to the sRGB color gamut , so the color gamut coverage at this time will be completely limited to sRGB. After our actual measurement , it can reach 99.98% of the sRGB color gamut coverage and the color accuracy is very strong. At this time, the Delta E is only 0.25. This number is less than 2, which is accurate enough. It is less than 1, which is very high. And 0.25 is the top performance among the top Samsung in vivid mode. The default does not cover any color gamut standard. It should be adjusted to deal with some people who think the screen is too bright. The actual measurement is about 85% of DCI-P3 , but if the Galaxy S24 Ultra is triggered through the P3 source, it can reach it. 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut is not covered by the CCT. It is set at around 7000K, which is the middle value between eyeball-pleasing and D65. Delta E falls at 4.99, which is obviously a more eye-catching adjustment direction , but Samsung actually gives you accurate settings. Just turn the following white balance option to Warm 1 and you can achieve 100% DCI-P3 coverage and top performance of Delta E 0.72. By the way, many people are asking how much the Galaxy S24 Ultra PWM is . It can basically be measured. The instruments that produce this kind of data are not cheap , but it just so happens that we also have this kind of inexpensive instrument, so I came to help you test the PWM. Please also subscribe to Bonnie and help you click the subscribe button . The subscription is completely free , but This is really important to us. According to our actual test results, the Galaxy S24 Ultra screen has a 480Hz PWM. It seems that Samsung still does not intend to follow the trend of high PWM , but I still want to remind friends who are sensitive to PWM that they should go. My own experience is the most accurate because even a PWM of more than 2000 Hz may be easy to fatigue in the eyes of sensitive friends and insensitive friends. In fact, in the past , people did not feel much about 2-300 Hz , and there was not much research on PWM in medicine . Most of them were just I feel tired , so my own experience is the most accurate at this stage. In addition , there are many indicators about whether it will make the eyes more likely to fatigue, such as blue light
. Samsung shared a while ago that their Vision Booster has a set of algorithms that will target high-definition eyesight. It automatically adjusts the display contrast under brightness and low brightness to make text easier to read. In addition , there is an option to enhance comfort directly in the eye protection mode. After turning it on, the system will automatically reduce saturation and contrast, making reading easier. By the way, this time there is also A small change is that for friends who use full-screen gestures , one of the AI functions this time is called the search circle. You need to press and hold this white line to activate it , so this time you cannot hide the full-screen gestures. Oh, hey, here is the donkey one day in the future. Now you can turn it off through the Good Lock NavStar App. Just turn on the extra options and you can turn it off directly in the settings . It can also be used normally if you press and hold the search circle at the bottom. In addition, regarding the indentation problem encountered by the Galaxy S23 Ultra at the time, this generation It should be better if you change it to a flat screen. I have three Galaxy S24 Ultras in my hand and all of them have passed the test. The square design of the last generation is really beautiful. Even though it is said to be a flat screen , it actually still has 2.5D on the edge, so it has a protective sticker. We have also bought molds from four different factories, all of which have a slight welt problem , that is, they will be very close to the edge of the display , but they will not block the edge and the text of the PTT on the web version will not be blocked, so OK, finally, in terms of sound effects, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is still equipped with dual speakers and also supports Dolby Atmos. At the end of the film, Bonnie will also provide a set of comparisons with various flagships for your reference. Next, let’s look at the camera that everyone is most looking forward to. The first question about the camera is straight to the ball. The question most people ask about IG is whether it has really changed? This time, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is the first generation to have the Super HDR function of the official in-depth optimized built-in camera of Instagram. It can directly allow the built-in camera of IG to use Samsung’s Super HDR algorithm. So we won’t waste any time and go straight to the devil. Use the selfie lens to take pictures of big backlights. Let’s first look at the previous Galaxy S23 Ultra. No accident the camera exploded , but it is a selfie lens after all , and the Galaxy S24 Ultra is here! It seems to be there , but the biggest difference is actually in the details. If you look at the details on the clothes, the familiar IG smearing feeling on the Galaxy S23 Ultra is blurred, while the Galaxy S24 Ultra is much clearer . Although there are sharpening marks , at least it is not the previous one. Only the smearing is real. The difference is visible to the naked eye. I think some Android users will switch to the Galaxy S24 Ultra for the Super HDR IG camera. This is not only exclusive to Samsung, it can also be said to be exclusive to the global Android circle. I also provide a set with the iPhone 15 Pro Max IG camera. The comparison sample is for everyone’s reference. This time the Galaxy S24 Ultra is really not inferior , but what about video recording? Let’s first compare the Galaxy S23 Ultra HDR. The effect is indeed better. However, when compared with the iPhone 15 Pro Max, the IG camera cannot fully HDR when recording. But when you see the details, Samsung tends to sharpen it , so it will look clearer . The iPhone 15 Pro Max prefers original images with noise and slightly hazy images in low light. There are quite a lot of differences between the two settings. Which style do you prefer? Another real world premiere is that the Galaxy S24 Ultra is the first mobile phone to support Instagram HDR photo display. You can see that some photos will be brighter when you upload them. This is the difference between light, shadow and dynamics in Super HDR photos. The scope is also more natural. It seems that the HDR era of IG is coming soon. Looking back at the serious camera test, if the camera function of the mobile phone is divided into two major items: photography and video recording, the camera skills of each flagship have been improved in the past two years. I'm really not worried about it , so in 2024, I think what Samsung should seriously do is video recording , especially the 8 Gen 3. It has such a strong ISP and NPU. If it doesn't do the calculation well and let it play its role, it will be really bad. It’s a pity , and the recording we tested this year is really interesting. There are two main highlights: one is called Super HDR, and the other is the new night recording function. Let’s talk about Super HDR first. Do you know which generation Samsung’s recording performance started to jump significantly? As you can see, we found a very harsh scene where there are people in the foreground and it is very dark . There are windows in the background and it is very bright. This means that in the worst case scenario it is very dark outside, so The details of the people are completely absent. The background is very bright, and the exposure is completely blown out. So we really didn’t test this scene politely. The most difficult thing to do is to first see the Galaxy S20 Ultra, which is the first Samsung mobile phone to use a 100 million pixel main lens. Seeing that in just over three years, the Galaxy S24 Ultra and S20 Ultra have already opened up a very big gap. The Galaxy S20 Ultra is completely in line with the prospect I just described. The difference in the sweaters is obvious when you look at the details. The window of the view is completely exposed , and the red brick smears and noise are very obvious , but this is something that cannot be seen from the specification sheet. Many people say that mobile phone specifications have not improved in the past few years , but in fact the algorithm is evolving rapidly, which is also the specification. Things that cannot be seen on the table must be measured to know. For example, the one on the left is a 1/1.3-inch main lens and the one on the right is also a 1/1.3-inch main lens . The difference is 200 million on the left and 100 million on the right . " High pixels are useless in low light.” If you just look at the specification sheet, you might think that the 200 million Galaxy S24 Ultra performs worse in night shooting. But the difference in the picture should be obvious. Who is better ? Let’s continue. Looking at the Galaxy S21 Ultra, you can see that the details on the screen have started to get better since this generation. The reason is very simple. Although Snapdragon 888 is the first generation of Fire Dragon , the ISP is not bad at all. This also allows more room for the computing efficiency of video recording. However, even so, the computing power back then was still limited. In this extreme scenario, the windows at the back could not be restored. However, with the launch of the S22 Ultra equipped with 8 Gen 1, things seemed to be turning around. Thanks to the ISP and NPU being up at the same time, the windows could be seen. The bright details that were originally exposed inside are slowly coming out. But in the end, the details on the sweater and the highlights on the back are still better from the Galaxy S24 Ultra . Some people may just look at whether the face is bright or not, but in fact When the dynamic range is sufficient, the details are still bright. Whether it is bright or not is a matter of pulling a little, and the exposed picture is completely hopeless. This is why professional cameras are always pursuing how many stops of dynamic range I have. Finally, Galaxy S23 Ultra is the first generation machine that uses Super HDR. You can see that Galaxy S24 Ultra and S23 Ultra are actually very similar. However, Galaxy S24 Ultra solves a small problem . In the past, Galaxy S23 Ultra would make people's faces white and slightly exposed when recording at night. This problem has also been corrected in the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Now it looks much more natural overall. Finally, when we pull back the Galaxy S20 Ultra, we can see that the improvement over the past three years is quite large . Especially the optical quality of the Galaxy S24 Ultra is very good. Yes, there is actually a streetlight next to it , so you can see that the Galaxy S20 Ultra is affected. There is a circle of ghosting on the screen , while the Galaxy S24 Ultra looks like nothing happened. The optical quality has also continued to improve in the past few years , but the specifications table cannot The reflection is good. After watching the night recording, the next question I am more curious about is how much worse is the telephoto recording ? Galaxy S20 Ultra is not only the first generation of 100 million pixel mobile phones, but also the first generation of mobile phones with 100x zoom. Let’s test it. How to see the performance of 10X video recording This difference is also very obvious. The Galaxy S20 Ultra is obviously white. This is not because the lens has not been wiped clean , but because of the limitations of the algorithm at that time. The OIS is also jumping around. Did you see it? If you look at the details, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is really much better. By the way, the 10X back then couldn’t shoot 4K 60FPS. Next, let’s look at the Galaxy S21 Ultra, which is also the first Samsung phone to have a true optical 10X zoom. The details feel a little better , but the OIS still can’t handle it. After a shake, the screen is still white. Comparison Don’t look at this paragraph again. In fact, the problem of whitening cannot be solved on the Galaxy S22 Ultra because you will see that the whitening is due to the optical problem of light attenuation . If you want to solve it on the mobile phone, the easiest way is to use the algorithm. Immediate correction , but it’s not that we didn’t do it at that time , but the performance of ISP and NPU was not enough. It will not be solved until Galaxy S23 Ultra and S8 Gen 2. You see, the two on the right are obviously much better. By the way, this group is also the Galaxy S23 that everyone is concerned about. Ultra 10X telephoto and Galaxy S24 Ultra 5X telephoto, which one is better? I think the details are really similar , but one thing is that the Galaxy S24 Ultra is slightly better. That is the speed of tracking moving objects. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is slightly better. Excellent , and the Galaxy S24 Ultra's anti-shake is also better. If compared with the iPhone 15 Pro Max and Pixel 8 Pro, in terms of details, the iPhone 15 Pro Max and Galaxy S24 Ultra are about the same. The Pixel 8 Pro is relatively ordinary , but the 15 Pro Max has An obvious problem is that the telephoto lens cannot handle high light. Faces taken during the day will already feel exposed from time to time. This situation will become more obvious when you wait for night scenes. However, the Galaxy S24 Ultra and Pixel 8 Pro are both pretty good. It’s normal , so when it comes to recording motion, since there is no AI algorithm support, I can only rely on the original optical performance. I also recorded a swing scene that moves faster. Currently, the overall performance of the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s motion recording is slightly better. With the Galaxy S23 Ultra , let’s take a look at the performance of this telephoto lens in night recording. As the sensor becomes larger, the Galaxy S24 Ultra will have the most advantage in night recording. Compared with the 15 Pro Max and Pixel 8 Pro, it is very obvious. Have you seen the picture just now? Galaxy S24 Ultra. The optical quality of this periscope is really good. Pixel and iPhone are obviously starting to shine. Galaxy S24 Ultra seems to have nothing going on. It should be noted that these test machines do not have lens stickers. It’s the original optical quality. You don’t have to worry about this kind of small problem. We will definitely pay attention to it. We will stop and zoom in to see the details. It is also the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Let’s raise the difficulty level to watch a video with super complicated lighting. This is the most difficult part. There is also a circle of bright LED tied next to the dark object , which is a test for the HDR algorithm . We also deliberately tested a project that I personally think is super difficult. Have you seen it ? Take another look and see if you haven’t yet? Zoom in and look at the baby dragon below. There is an LED that will light up instantly , which means that the sign will be super bright for a moment and then turn off. It is a test of whether the real-time HDR can keep up with the Galaxy S24 Ultra and Pixel 8 Pro. Both passed without being affected , but the 15 Pro Max directly exploded. I was really surprised when I dropped this . Apple's general video HDR is very strong, but the telephoto camera has the problem of light meter jump. You see, we didn't click it. As we moved the lantern, the connection would suddenly be exposed. The results below are the same. This telephoto lens does have this problem in low light. The light box exposed all the light boxes . Our metering and focus are all set to Auto. You see, I even moved it back and it still can't be suppressed. I don't know if it's because I'm afraid of synthesis errors or not. Computing power limitations or the Sensor itself does not allow it. I feel that the highlight suppression of this telephoto is a bit too inactive. By the way, I would like to add that what I am discussing here is simply the HDR algorithm for telephoto recording. Next, let’s look at the 10X I’ll leave it to everyone to comment on the results of this group of low-light recordings. Finally, I’ll come back to see who will win the concert in my mind. Then it will be divided into taking photos and recordings. Before taking photos, first look at the light source. Plenty of context iPhone 15 Pro Max, Pixel 8 Pro, Galaxy S24 Ultra. There is no surprise. Samsung wins the telephoto king or the telephoto king. Then let’s have a fun competition to see how the S20 Ultra and S22 Ultra perform . There is indeed room for improvement. Become the king of the concert , but the Galaxy S23 Ultra and S24 Ultra are interesting. Although the Galaxy S24 Ultra looks clearer , the traces of the algorithm are obvious , while the Galaxy S23 Ultra is a bit hazy but more natural. What will you choose? Here is a set of 100 I think the best situation for the Galaxy S24 Ultra, at least with the current firmware version, is that it has a back-and-forth with the Galaxy S23 Ultra, which looks like architectural samples. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is pretty good and surpasses the 15 Pro. Max and Pixel 8 Pro are not big problems , but Galaxy S23 Ultra is slightly better in some places, but if you want to surpass it, I can tell you clearly that the current version has almost none , but it is rumored that Samsung will release a new telephoto firmware recently. Just look at the difference. Let’s take a look at a set of Galaxy S23 Ultra. Why is it the king of telephoto ? It’s not fake. Look at the clarity of this set of Xiangdi Avenue Square. Can you guess how many times the zoom is ? What do you think? I put 15 Pro Max and Pixel 8 Pro to feel it again. Let’s look at the current position. You are here . It ’s really only the Galaxy S23 Ultra that can be seen. Then let’s look at the Galaxy S24 Ultra. It’s barely enough , but I still have to say it for the Galaxy S24 Ultra. In terms of 5X telephoto, this telephoto lens is really not bad at all and is a bit strong. We can clearly see this by comparing 15 Pro Max and Pixel 8 Pro. The other two are also optical 5X , but this time I will always talk about telephoto because the big brother Galaxy S23 Ultra is really too powerful. The only one that makes it difficult for Samsung to pass that threshold is actually Samsung itself , and the telephoto in low light comes first. Comparing the other two brands, let’s compare the big brother’s photos. I also zoomed in to see this group. I would vote for the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Compared with other white balance comparisons, the 10X compression of the Galaxy 23 Ultra still makes the face slightly brighter. Stretching and Galaxy 24 Ultra because it is 5X cropping will make people more natural. We zoom in to 20X face stretching and it is obvious that the proportions of the facial features are obviously different. Galaxy S24 Ultra will be more natural. Finally, it also provides 100 Double Fun provides the Galaxy S21 Ultra for your reference. Who has the advantage in telephoto recording ? First, the 10X sample. I think it is really almost the same when zoomed in. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is slightly better, and the details of the Galaxy S24 Ultra are better under the 20X. It is indeed slightly better , but not by much. The only difference is the stability. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is indeed better. At that time, we took the photo from the bridge on the second floor , so the bridge was actually shaking all the time. The place where the artist was standing was actually very dark , so this scene It’s really hard to do well. Basically, I’ll go here first for testing. To sum up , there are probably three impressive aspects of this generation. First, the video recording of this generation can be said to be better for another year . As expected, the hardware must be good for video recording and This time, even the details are taken into consideration , especially this set of high-contrast samples. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is really stable and solves the problem of white faces. The second one is the 5X telephoto recording, which is really good in comparison. The advantages of the two competing products are quite obvious. Finally, let’s talk about telephoto. My own subjective opinion is that the extreme telephoto of Galaxy S24 Ultra, at least in the current firmware version, is not as good as that of Galaxy S23 Ultra. The best situation is to shoot. Even or slightly better , but should we say overtake? In the current version, I think it is impossible to have such a result. At most, it is almost the same. So how to choose? In fact, it is very clear . If you are very clear that you want to shoot a concert, the Galaxy S23 Ultra currently still accounts for Excellent , but other than that , I think overall there is no reason to go back to buy the Galaxy S23 Ultra. Firstly, for video recording, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is almost superior in all aspects. Secondly, I still have to remind everyone that the focal length that is more commonly used in daily life should still be the main lens. And ultra-wide-angle. This year’s Galaxy S24 Ultra actually changed something that I really like . Samsung finally stopped turning the sharpening to ultra-high. The skin tone is quite pleasing. Let’s look at a group of portraits . This rosy skin tone is paired with the red behind. The lantern context is very good. Which one do you like for tuning? By the way, in this episode we directly used Pixel 8 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro and even Galaxy S20 Ultra to S23 Ultra . It is definitely not industry-standard , although there are some. We will still compete in cooperation, but after all, it is not easy to produce a program. Please support us. You are also welcome to sponsor us by becoming a channel member or using YouTube’s super thank you button to complete more reference-worthy actual test programs. By the way, there are two more programs this time. I can talk about a small detail. It is highly recommended that friends who like to play with cameras can go to the Samsung App Store to download the Camera Assistant app. Here you can finely adjust the camera's gear settings. For example, starting from the Galaxy S23 Ultra, Samsung has solved this problem. Because of the shutter delay problem, the focus accuracy has been relaxed. Through Camera Assistant, you can change the settings back to focus before taking pictures. In addition
, you can also adjust and add more zoom shortcuts. For example, it was originally only 0.6 1 3 5 10, and now you can add more. 2X 100X There is also an image quality optimization intensity at the bottom that
can be adjusted. For example, if you can adjust it to the lowest setting, the system will directly skip the optimization step. You can try it. Finally , I have more before measuring the performance, battery life, and charging speed. The sample is for your reference. As for the performance test that everyone is concerned about, the Galaxy S24 Ultra in our hands is equipped with Qualcomm's new generation Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy, which is specially customized for Samsung. It uses TSMC's 4nm process with LPDDR5X 12GB of RAM and UFS 4.0 256GB. All ROM benchmark test tables are provided below. Many items have been tested for a long time. We will also update it to isbonny.com. Interested friends can refer to it. It is worth mentioning that Samsung has put a lot of effort into the heat dissipation of Galaxy S24 Ultra this year. VC This VC is directly 1.9 times larger, which is really huge for Samsung. This is really unprecedented in the history of Samsung. Then we move on to the performance test benchmarks. I will talk about it quickly because the real focus is on the actual CPU single core. Compared with the S23 Ultra and S22 Ultra, the multi-core has increased by 7.7% and 36.9% respectively (slip), and the multi-core has increased by 26.7% and 81.6% . So if you switch to the S22 Ultra, you will definitely feel that the CPU performance is increased by 1.8 times , and not only the performance is improved The key point is that it saves more power , and the GPU is 1.3 times higher than the Galaxy S23 Ultra. It is almost doubled to 1.94 times faster than the S22 Ultra . This performance is also stronger than the Apple A17 Pro . It is a comprehensive overtake. The theoretical performance is really strong. Let’s jump right into the actual performance. This year, the Bonnie team also tried its best to control the indoor temperature at about 26 degrees in all tests to reduce the impact of ambient temperature on the test results. First, PUBG M was played at HDR extreme frame rate for about 30 minutes. The average frame rate of the Galaxy S24 Ultra maintains the consistent level of running at 59.8fps. The key point is the power consumption and temperature. The front is only 34.7 degrees , and the back is only 33.8 degrees . The heat is lower than body temperature. The key point is also the power consumption. At the same setting of 200 nits, the average power consumption of the Galaxy S22 Ultra is 3.8W. The S23 Ultra is already very powerful at only 3W. The S24 Ultra is even lower at only 2.9W. Then we tested the Genshin Impact Sumi Galaxy S24 Ultra with a heavier load. After 30 minutes of continuous play at the highest quality , the average frame rate fell to 51.9 FPS. Both front and back sides were only around 40 degrees. The temperature really leaves a lot of room for improvement. It feels similar to last year’s S23 Ultra , but the focus is still on power consumption. 22 Ultra average At only 41.9FPS, the power consumption has reached 6.6W . The Galaxy S23 Ultra has an average power consumption of 51.7FPS and 5.6W. The Galaxy S24 Ultra has a similar performance of 51.9FPS and the power consumption has dropped again by 6.5% to only 5.3W . I think I feel that if Samsung is a little more wild and runs freely, it will definitely be able to run at full capacity . In fact, the heat dissipation stack will not be too hot. It depends on Samsung. At present, it is a bit conservative. In the final test, the Galaxy S24 Ultra collapsed at the highest image quality continuously. After playing for 30 minutes, the average frame rate fell to 42.6FPS. Both sides are only about 40 degrees, so there is really room for Samsung to really relax , especially this generation’s heat dissipation. Finally, let’s take a look at 3DMark 20 The stress test stability of the wheel reached 48.3% , and the temperatures on both front and back were within 39 degrees . That’s still conservative . However, this year’s 8 Gen 3 GPU is really strong . Even a gaming phone cannot run without a fan. The stability is 100% , so don’t worry about ordinary mobile phones. In addition, Samsung’s mobile phones actually have bypass charging, so you can bypass the battery and play while charging. This is good. Overall, Snpadragon 8 Gen 3 is still very stable and we don’t need to worry. I conveniently tested this generation and it can also pass the 4K 60fps continuous video recording test for half an hour. After half an hour, the front was 32.8 degrees and the back was 34.3 degrees . It was not hot at all. In the battery life section, first of all, the Galaxy S24 Ultra scored 13 hours at 2K 120Hz . 6 One charge per day is very stable, and the battery life is about 7% higher than that of the S23 Ultra. The minimum is to turn on FHD 120Hz throughout the entire process. There is no need to continue to select. In the charging section, the Galaxy S24 Ultra also supports Qi wireless charging, wireless reverse charging , and wired charging up to 45W. Fast charging takes 30 minutes to fully charge 71%. It takes about 1 hour and 6 minutes to fully charge. It is similar to the previous one . It also uses 3D Sonic Gen 2 second-generation ultrasonic fingerprint recognition module for biometric security identification. It is recommended for everyone to quickly unlock with a tap. In addition, this generation also supports facial recognition. The Taiwan version also supports 5G and supports Samsung Pay and one of the best Samsung Pay Easy Cards. However, there is still no eSIM (knock on the bowl). I really want to knock on the bowl (knock on the bowl seriously) . Taiwan Samsung will evaluate it. (Knock the bowl again) But this generation provides 7 years of security updates and 7 years of major version updates. This is really sincere in terms of a customized system . Okay, let’s stop here first for this episode. We are also trying our best to bring as many actual tests as possible within the limited time . I hope everyone will enjoy watching it. If you still have any questions or have not been tested by the Bonnie team, please leave a message below to discuss together. In the end, the production of the program is not easy , so please support me .
