I'm not the only person who believes the S24 Ultra is worth the money, while the S25 Ultra is not:

Don’t waste money — the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra still gets the job done

It's not worth spending more

I might consider that as a new cell down the line...

Problem is that it's already 2 versions into its upgrade cycle, so it's going to go obsolete sooner. Like the Note 10+, I'll miss it when it's gone.

Yeah I think my current phone it is on it's last legs, barely a year old too..

Two years isn't very long! My s21 is starting to lose battery life, but it's 4 years old (I was hoping to limp it on to this time next year, but beginning to have doubts about that).

These days the update cycle for many Samsungs is long enough that it's not going to be the thing that limits the phone's life.

My S21 is still enjoying decent battery life. Most of it's life I've been retired and it has seen far less use than previous phones. I don't see the battery life forcing a new phone anytime soon. Not communicating well with my new hearing aids or the lack of support will prompt a change .

My Samsung Tablet I picked up pre covid, the battery is amazing for the win, still lasting ever long..

If you're even mildly interested, Samsung is unveiling its new XR headset October 21st. If you register, you get $100 credit off the price (IF you choose to buy it) -

The more I read about the upcoming S26 Ultra, the more inclined I feel to NOT buy it. I'll keep my S24 Ultra since its successors have been only minor updates, relying on a bunch of whiz-bang "AI" features (most of which I don't want and won't use) as selling points. Instead, I may very well switch to the Moto G Stylus 2026 and save $1000.
