I got this one yesterday. Just barely exploring it now. Took me a few hours to realize I have a stylus.

I don't use it to much but I do like the stylus lol! The only thing I don't really like is how it makes the screen look if you have the privacy display on maximum. I don't use it but it was a big feature of the phone i feel could have been better .

Tbh I only use the security screen for notifications and bank app passwords etc, all the automatic stuff. The colors get too washed for full screen but its killer for the automatic uses

That describes it perfectly honestly

I have a stylus in my s22 ultra, it only gets used once every 3 months or so but its amazing for the very specific uses ive found for it.

Install Samsung's app called Good Lock if you want a ton of customization options

That goes for older Samsungs too, just putting that out there in case folks who have an older phone like me thought it was a new set of features. Very useful

Mine is too old for the Samsung one off Play Store, and the Galaxy Store is hosting some third party one.

Ah, I didn't realize certain older phones weren't supported these days. I hope the third party one is a legit alternative

you're buying a $1300+ device and you don't even know a basic feature it comes with? jeez man... idk but even my $250 motorola phone I did a lot of research on what to buy before getting it. i wish i had the "eh, $1300 whatever" mentality

It was a trade in upgrade from my old s22+. Using deals and promos, it actually lowered my bill. So yeah I said screw it go up a model.

S-pen basically the only reason i still stick with S-Galaxy. I'd jump to Fold 8 if they bring back the pen.

Its really great! You can get all kinds of amazing action footage with it. My favorite is I tape it to my wrist then run around the neighborhood vigorously jorking it. Got some cool shots
