That was a disappointment.  Satellite connectivity was supposed to be in S23 and promised in S24.  I couldn't wait any longer having a S21.

In the Samsung Unpacked event they didn't touch on that the new Gorilla Armor on only the S24 U, it has anti-glare properties, almost like a matt finish. For some they might not like it!

For me it was amazing to look at, almost no reflection. I didn't get to test it outside, just under brigjt indoor lights.

If you watched any of the CES coverage of Samsung products and you saw the Oled 95 series, it also had an anti-glare panel. 

Just thought I would throw it out there!

Exactly what I thought when I saw it in the store. The screen is much 'less glossy' than the S22/23 Ultra. It almost felt like a Matt screen. I have tried to see if anyone to shed some light on it but there is no mention of that.

Hey everyone, I have an s23 ultra and I have been asking for reduce animations to come back for years as the iPhone has this animation option and selecting remove animations that samsung offers in One UI 6.0 is choppy and removes animations within apps. 

Can anyone confirm if oneui 6.1 has this feature in settings? Also please give it a try if you want to see the difference!

Thank you in advance!

[Av3rag3Jo3]

Found the answer at Best Buy. PSA: "Remove animations" in oneui 6 is the SAME as "reduce animations" in oneui 6.1. Very misleading as I was expecting them to bring back crossfade animations (the one thing I envy from iphone) and give the customer two options for animations. I will deal with the iPhone style zoom in zoom out animations or find a good launcher. Pretty disappointed.

Why Samsung has not included the ability to record log video footage that would allow the user to edit the log video in Premiere Pro, or DaVinci Resolve.. I'm just shaking my head..

Straight up, really thought after the iPhone 15 they might've stepped up their game. If you're interested though, depending on your device, you can create an almost custom LOG profile in Pro Video. If you shoot 24 fps and 9:21, you can edit all the contrast, highlights, and saturatin settings. Turn them to a flat level you're happy with and it's definitely an improvement I think. Hopefully we get an official software update with the ability

The_agill, thank you for the reply

I have the S23 Ultra, I'm so willing to upgrade to the s24Ultra, but shelling out 1300 for a workaround, I just can't do it..

As I was watching Samsung unpack, I was really hoping Samsung would have added a log profile setting for video recording..

I will wait before upgrading!

I'm a Note 20 Ultra user myself!

[MoeNYC]

I had that device myself. In fact, I have owned each Samsung Note model. I have been a very loyal samsung customer. Samsung should give its content creators the full gambit of tools for creating.. clearly, they can do it,
