If you any of the Samsung phones(especially the flagships)I recommend you to not update your phone for as long as you can unless it's an important security thing ofc.
I own s22 ultra and ordered an s25 ultra.
Since s25 ultra has got a 5x lens and 22 has a 10x, I decided to compare the clarity.
To my surprise s25 ultra came very close and even beat my s22 ultra sometimes.
That was the case, until I clicked RAW pictures. That's when I realised, the issue was my Samsung camera app degrading my 10x images and making them worse than even the raw picture. On purpose ofc.
I actually bought a Samsung in 2022 because of the software (and the pen) but this really feels like a betrayal

I could share images if people want a proof but I really don't care if people believe me or not
If anyone reads this, please suggest me a third party camera app which lets me use all my lenses

Also, s22 ultra has 960fps slomo, and 25 doesn't 
So i wont really be surprised if they take that away in one ui 7 as well. Beware guys 🙃

Which feature did I enquire about ?
And there's absolutely nothing among all the sd8gen1 features that can't be achieved with 8 elite. Samsung just chose not to add 960fps slo mo.
I don't actually care what you do to new phones.
But degrading old phones through software "updates" is not something one can accept after paying this much for a phone.
