Samsung s25 ultra: Unbeatable experience

[KSILENT467]

Hello, I have been experiencing samsung almost after 15 years from getting my first hands-on samsung galaxy s2 (2010) to today's s25 ultra. During the mid time I was using OnePlus 3 and IQOO 7.

I don't like to spend much on smartphones. But this time I really pushed myself beyond the limit and genuinely, I'm not regretting my decision.

The s25 ultra is truely a complete package of everything. From camera to processor to UI to AI features and specially the S pen. It's look and feel gives you the premium experience one can't possibly get from any other device. 

Any new hands on this device will not be disappointed from any of its part.

Camera is absolutely amazing, it gives so much true images and more colors enhancing the real time experiences. Ultra wide is very much better when i compare it with other devices. Its so real.

Screen is having anti-reflecting coating ✅️which is working great in daylights and also the display gives great experience while watching movies.

Battery was a bit concerning for me as it drains faster when you just pick up the phone, press power button, see the time. Everytime I do this i see some battery reducing. But while using continuously, battery backup was fine. Even charging speed is better when you compare a 25W adapter⚡️ with today's 65-120W adapter. I charge my phone till 85% and I achieve it within 45 min. Thats not bad. This can be reduced to 30min if you are using a 45W adapter. But when you compare today's technology, still there's a lot of development required for Samsung in battery department. One is investing so much in this, they should get the best of best segment at this price point.

The device sometimes get heated 🌡little bit on minimal use but not too much and also it doesn't throttle. It works smoothly even when it heats. So I don't think its a problem right now.

S pen, this is only thing which makes samsung ahead of everything. S pen's capabilities and features are really a beauty. Unlucky me 🙁 couldn't get bluetooth functionality this time on stylus, if it was there that would make it perfect.

Rest are AI features some are helpful in real time, some are just for fun and some are useless (for me). 

Samsung promises 7 years 😲 of security upgrades so that should really be considered as one investing this much can run it for longer time period.

Overall the device is fully loaded with amazing features. I dont think any other device is currently present in market with so much capabilites in a single set. One should definitely give it a try, I'm sure you won't be disappointed 😉. 

Your Wellwisher,

Silent K.

I have purchased the device only a week ago. I am willing to write my own review of this product. Still I need some more days to write an honest review.
