Just wanna post to share my joy. The 3 have the Snapdragon 8 elite globally. Maybe Samsung couldn’t make an Exynos that was on par with the 8 elite. Props to Snapdragon. Fast and efficient. Chip improvements like this don’t oft come.
If the other brands can’t make a better phone, the S25 ultra will probably be the best big phone of 2025.
I’m done with Samsung, with every software update they have been removing features we already have, the last nail for me was removing Bluetooth LE audio and the LC3 codec from my S22.
I quite like their hardware. Only wish that their custom ROM support was better. I bought a Google Pixel 9 recently just for GrapheneOS support.
Can you tell me more about the btle change, or point me to a post about this please.
They were working mostly fine (some bugs) for a few weeks in late 2023 and the Samsung decided that fuck you: https://r1.community.samsung.com/t5/support/bluetooth-le-audio/td-p/24170625 But hey, is now an exclusive feature on the new S25: https://www.reddit.com/r/HearingAids/comments/1i7jteu/new_samsung_feature_for_hearing_aids_with_le/
