Both materials feel cool to the touch when initially held. I'd say the titanium is a bit more grippier which might be relevant if you like to use your phone without a case.

The colours are matched more on the back and frame for the S24/+ compared to the S24U.

One UI doesn't use that much more space compared to other skins if you judge by the size of the super partition. Unfortunately, ArsTechnica jumped the gun on the topic without doing proper research.

I'll edit this comment later with a list of pre-installed apps on the US unlocked model later.

Edit: List of pre-installed apps on the (* denotes it can be uninstalled)

-In the Google folder: Google, Chrome, Gmail, Maps, YouTube, Drive*, Google TV*, Meet. And Photos*.

-In the Microsoft folder: LinkedIn*, Microsoft 365*, OneDrive, and Outlook*.

-In the Samsung folder: Find*, Health*, Members*, Messages, My Files, PENUP*, Shop Samsung*, SmartThings*, TV*, Voice Recorder*, Wearable*.

Apps outside the folder: Assistant, Calculator*, Calendar*, Camera, Clock*, Contacts, Facebook*, Gallery, Gaming Hub*, Global Goals*, Internet, Messages, Netflix*, News, Notes*, Phone, Play Store, Settings, Spotify*, Store, Tips*, Wallet*, and YouTube Music*.

In general, the bootloader of US and Canadian models can't be unlocked. You can with other regional variants, regardless of Snapdragon or Exynos.

We'll be taking a bunch of photos later today, and I have my S23U with me to compare with. I took a quick shot with 10x on both devices, and at a glance the S24U is sharper.

Going to need to check it out further, but the zoom nightography they demonstrated in the keynote looks crazy.

My intention is to direct people to his Twitter so he gains some impressions which translates to a bit of revenue.

In the context of getting an 8 Gen 3 device.

Notably mentions 5 OS updates for Google, which may end up being the policy for the Pixel 8 series (so far we only know in general 7 years of updates).

APKMirror is a great option as alluded in the post, but it doesn't have every single app, and it's limited to free apps.

Aurora Store is a good option too, but you can only get free apps with an anonymous account. Those accounts are often rate limited as well.

Noticed a few things here:

-They're still advertising UPC Plus which means there probably hasn't been any changes from the Fold4. Software processing for the camera might be different though.

-They're not advertising Eco² OLED which means it's probably still using an Eco² OLED Plus display. I was hoping for a third generation since they announced a brighter inner display. That probably means it's the same panel found in the Fold4 which was likely artificially limited, similar to what Samsung did with the S21 Ultra and S22 Ultra.

-The fold testing numbers are the same compared to the Fold4 found here. They did manage to maintain the same durability with a new waterdrop hinge at least.

Also if you were wondering, the Flip5 crease is similar to the Flip4, while the Fold5 crease feels a lot more subtle compared to the Fold4. I had hands-on with the Flip5 for a few days, and currently have a Fold5 review unit, all provided by Samsung.

It looks like it's just as durable in terms of fold testing (150k at 60°C, 200k at 25°C, and 30k at -20°C). No improvement, but passing the same tests as the Fold4 with a different hinge is notable.
