Damn this is so boring. I still have my S9 and as long as I don't break the glass or the battery breaks I don't see much need for a new phone, I just to less and less with it which is quite nice.
I had the S8+ and moved to an S23 Ultra, the difference is huge to be honest. The S9 surely is better in that regard thanks to the extra gb of RAM, but still you will see a big difference compared to an S24 Ultra (which doesn't mean that you phone isn't perfect for your needs as is)
The S9 was a significant improvement in performance etc over the S8 despite having basically the same design - my friend has an S9+ and he feels absolutely no push to get a new phone and I don't blame him.
You can justify it all you can, but S23 is miles ahead of your S9 and S24 is even further.
Your phone's screen is terrible nowadays... That is for a simple example.
I never said that a new phone istn't technically ahead. I only said that for what I'm using it for - which is getting less and less - I find those upgrades very boring.
And I'm one of those people who waited in the line when the iPhone 3G started being sold, I almost lost my job for it because I abondened it to be in the line instead ^^
Their title says "flat display", yet further down the article, they write:
... the display is almost flat. The glass panel has a very subtle curve on the side edges (possibly from 2.5D curved glass)...
So, not flat then.
Fuck curved edges on Samsung phones, they're an arse for screen protector edges wanting to lift up when that wind blows the wrong way.
There's a difference between the display being flat and the glass in front of it being flat, which is what they're pointing out, albeit badly.
Here and I was just saving up for a S23 and now they go and make an S24, at this rate I won't be able to afford one until 2025
Prices for the S23 will drop when the S24 comes out.
They've released a new phone every year for a long time, though. This isn't anything new.
My frend... He is the joking... 🤌🏼
Hilarious
I may move to a pixel 8 pro instead, was hoping it was fully flat
