So recently my little sister came to visit (she's 19 btw) and the first thing she does after saying hello is immediately show me the S26 Ultra.
Now being the tech savvy person I am, she ofc wanted me to set it up which I did happily. I told her everything about the phone etc etc then she said the line "I have a better phone then you now" now I'm pretty competitive in games NOT tech. So when she said that I wanted to drop a book on her explaining the differences cause theys isn't many but for info.
She has the Black S26 Ultra with 256GB Storage and 12GB Ram.
When she wanted info I told her about APV Video Codec, Privacy display and so on.
Either way we got an S26 Ultra now in the family. That now means we have the S25 Ultra, Zfold7, A56, S21 (base) and S26 Ultra. All of them were set up to run they best by me. 😁

An interesting collection and obviously your expertise comes in handy, the S25 Ultra though is still a great Device even if it is surpassed in some areas but some features have flowed down.
I would always go now for at least 512 GB storage but I suppose needs differ.

I did try warning her that APV is gunna drink her storage she just didn't mind. I did look into the devices ofc myself and her "lead" isn't by much and given I've had over a year to fully optimise my S25 Ultra. The lead is likely smaller.

APV format is giant. You can get external drives to offload the files if you need to.

Yh I assumed they would be a thing. I'll be sure to let my sister know when I get the chance. Thank You!
