#s24-ultra — Public Fediverse posts

I tried Android phones for more than a year, now I’m moving back to iOS!

Background

Last year I decided to move to Android side for various purposes, to experience how Android side of things have developed while I was on the Apple ecosystem for more than 5 years. Initially I went with One Plus 13 and used it for about 9 months. Then I exchanged it for Samsung S24 Ultra and used it for around 6 months more before I finally decided to settle back to iOS.

The Android experience

What I Liked

• Hardware
  • Both OnePlus 13 and Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra had excellent hardware.
  • OnePlus felt lighter and more comfortable with the leather back and curves.
  • Samsung’s flat, squared display just looked and felt premium.
• Performance
  • Absolute performance beasts.
  • Multitasking, split-screen, PiP all worked flawlessly without hiccups.
• Charging & Battery
  • Charging speeds are great on both.
  • OnePlus SuperVOOC was insanely fast and actually useful in daily life.
• Useful Extras
  • IR blaster on OnePlus was surprisingly handy for controlling TVs and ACs.
  • S-Pen on S24 Ultra was genuinely useful for quick notes, calculations, and even as a camera shutter.
• Launcher Flexibility
  • Niagara Launcher felt weird on OnePlus but worked really well on Samsung.

What Didn’t Work for Me

• Accessories Ecosystem
  • OnePlus had poor third-party accessory(cases and screenguards) support.
  • Samsung was better, but still not great in terms of quality and consistency.
  • No native Magsafe! S-pen won’t work with magsafe if you got the case for it.
• Fingerprint Scanner + Screen Guards
  • This was honestly a mess.
  • Many screen guards don’t work properly with the in-display fingerprint scanner.
  • You end up doing hacks like registering the same finger multiple times.
  • Even then, reliability is hit or miss.
  • Face unlock sometimes interferes when you are scanning your finger and it leads you to lockscreen edit screen instead of going to the Homescreen.
  • Older rear fingerprint scanners were simply more reliable, like from the early Pixel phones.
• Software Updates
  • Samsung promises long-term support, but updates often felt delayed.
  • OneUI 8.5 is still in beta since maybe forever. And will be available to the latest gen flagship first, then you have to wait for the older flagships to get it.
  • Even monthly security patches were often a month late.
  • No excitement around updates compared to iOS.
• App Experience
  • iOS still gets better treatment from developers.
  • Apps arrive earlier and feel more polished.
• Automation & Customization
  • iOS Shortcuts is still miles ahead.
  • Samsung Routines is decent, but not at that level.
  • OnePlus doesn’t offer much here.
  • Android customization relies heavily on third-party tools, which I personally don’t enjoy using.
• Lockscreen Experience
  • iOS offers cleaner, more useful lockscreen customization out of the box.
  • Android needs effort (or third-party apps) to get close.
• Camera Gimmicks
  • The 100x zoom sounds cool but is mostly useless.
  • I never really used those shots for anything meaningful.

How did my week with iOS go?

I went with the popular iPhone 17. It finally has the 120Hz refresh rate screen with AOD, most of the ‘pro’ features. I think the LiDAR, ProRAW and extra zoom are the only thing that I feel could be useful to me going forward, but I’m sure I won’t mind missing those. The standard phone actually feels complete now. 

• I am loving the magsafe wallet and stand.
• Camera apps, native and 3rd party, capture amazing photos.
• The Shortcuts app! How I use my shortcuts and automations deserves another post. But I love exploring these.
• I have customised the control center as per my preference.
• I haven’t finalised my homescreen setup yet as I am not sure what I should put there. Everything is just a quick search away(the way I like).
• I love the built-in background noises feature. No need of additional app.
• The cases and screenguard – I don’t even have to overthink about this anymore. FaceID works flawlessly most of the time.
• I don’t mind the Liquid Glass much. Still getting used to the new phone app. 
• What I don’t like is that if I tap on an item from a list, there’s a halo-ish effect? instead of showing I selected a row. I don’t know if I tapped the correct row item.

What I miss coming from Andriod?

3 things – 

• Split screen or PiP mode for better multitasking. Useful in calculations etc.
• App cloning. Using same app with different accounts.
• Secure folder is actually secure. It is hidden quite well, both in OxygenOS and OneUI, locked with a different password than your phone’s passcode. On iOS, that’s not the case. Hidden folder is well visible to everyone with your phone’s password and that doesn’t inspire much confidence.

Going forward

While it felt like an adventure giving Android phones a go, I think I’ll stick with iOS as wife also has one, a few of my close friends have it as well and I like the excitement of getting the software update when everyone gets it, and that it has a much wider accessory support. This post is not about Android vs iOS or which one is objectively better. We are way past that debate. Both are amazing. It’s up to the individual which OS fulfils their purpose. Which one are you sticking with? And are you planning to switch anytime soon?

Galaxy S24 and Z Fold/Flip6 One UI 8.5 beta builds spotted!

Last week, the Galaxy Z Fold/Flip7 series entered the One UI 8.5 Beta Program as an effort to expand the beta program to more flagship devices. This came 3 months after the Galaxy S25 series joined the program.

Today, a new development emerged, because the Galaxy Z Fold/Flip6 series and the Galaxy S24 series have started internally testing the One UI 8.5 beta builds, as spotted by Tarun Vats.

This suggests that the One UI 8.5 beta program for these devices will be opened soon, for a subset of countries like Korea, USA, and India. The forums will be opened for these devices once the program officially starts, with the expected duration being in a week or two.

However, Samsung has also started testing the One UI 8.5 beta builds for both the Galaxy S25 FE and the Galaxy S24 FE, which is unusual for Samsung’s beta programs, as the FE variants are usually excluded from the program.

Once the beta program opens for all these devices, we’ll inform you.

Samsung releases the January 2026 security patch for the Galaxy S24 series

January 2026 is here, and Samsung have focused on releasing the January 2026 security patch for the majority of Galaxy users worldwide.

An update might take 5 to 10 minutes to apply, depending on the device and the type of the update being applied.

If you’re seeing “Your software is up to date,” this means that the update hasn’t reached your device yet. Keep checking for updates, as Samsung rolls it out gradually to all devices from country to country, usually starting from Korea.

Canadian users can now download One UI 8.0. However, some USA users are still currently stuck in One UI 7, but they should get One UI 8.0 soon. Your Galaxy has now become more powerful as One UI 8 brings more powerful features. This update includes the Galaxy S25 Edge.

The firmware information states:

• Galaxy S25 Edge: S937WVLU2BYI3, S937USQU5BYI3 [CA: XAC and other Canadian CSCs | USA: ATT]

If you are in the USA, you’ll have to wait a little more, depending on the carrier. To obtain the update, perform the following steps:

1. Open the Settings app
2. Navigate to Software Updates
3. Tap on Download and Install
4. Wait until you see One UI 8 at the top of the page, then tap on Download
5. Wait for the download to complete, then tap on Install

After you perform the above steps, your phone will be running One UI 8 based on Android 16, and you can enjoy its new features and with many improvements on place. This makes sure that your experience gets improved.

If you still didn’t get the update for your device, wait for a few days or a few weeks, then check for updates again. If you still see “Your software is up to date,” this means that the update didn’t reach your region yet.

Note that the update process may take 15 to 20 minutes, and this can vary from device to device. The download process may incur extra charges if you’re using the cellular network as the update size is around 5 GB, depending on the device, so we recommend downloading it through Wi-Fi. Never interrupt the update process in any way, or problems may occur. Make sure that your phone gets charged before you initiate the installation process.
