Title: Made a switch
Post by: Firoz on Apr 10, 2026, 06:25 PM
Just swapped my 1‑year‑old S24 Ultra for a Find X9. The battery and camera on the S24 have really gone downhill, and I'm still sad to part with it! It was the last truly sharp‑edged Ultra.

Samsung really needs to sort out their battery problems.

Anyone up for swapping my S24 for a bag of chips? Not much, but it's all I've got.

Now I get why Samsung is promising 7‑year updates. They're basically letting the flagships age faster so we end up buying the next model instead of hanging on to a perfectly good phone. Otherwise, why push the upgrade?

Wow, that plain silver colour they keep using on laptops looks stunning on phones.

Could've just gotten the battery swapped.

Never knew Samsung had such battery woes; I'd even recommend the S25 Ultra to a friend now.

I didn't realise Oppo's cameras are that much better. What's the real difference you notice?

Totally get it, bro. I moved from the S23 Ultra to the Find X9.

What the! That Purple S24 Ultra is exactly my phone and the Titanium Grey Find X9 is the one my wife just got! We love the Find X9 – the camera blows people's minds everywhere. (Though it heats up crazy within a few minutes of opening the camera app, does anyone else see that?) The battery life is unbelievably good too.

I also switched from the Purple S24 Ultra to OnePlus 15. After the OneUI 7 update the battery turned terrible, so I couldn't rely on it during site visits – pretty embarrassing for a phone that's otherwise awesome.
