This is just my opinion, but if you were thinking about upgrading from the S24 Ultra, you should probably save your money. First of all, the pre order deals were pretty good. I changed my mind but then they did a "Spring Sale" and I went ahead and took the bait because I was wondering if I should have done the pre order. So I still got a good deal with trade in if $900 plus an extra $100 in credit, so I got the 1TB Phone and Buds 3 Pro for less than $600. Here's the funny thing...I didn't notice any difference whatsoever in speed or battery life. Add in the removal of the Bluetooth S Pen capabilities and little annoying things like the Now Bar and some things being removed from Goodlock and I started to realize I was having a change of heart. The rounded corners looked ok but the square corners on the S24 Ultra make it look more premium. So there you have it. I sent it back and plan on sticking with the S24 Ultra for at least another year and we'll see what Samsung decides to do with the S Pen and AI. Granted, if you're coming from an S21 or S22 Ultra, you might like and notice some differences between the two, but I hope this was somewhat helpful if you're trying to decide.

I returned it twice due to heating issues. I dealt with overheating on my s21 ultra for four years. I'm just irritated that the s25 series is also overheating.

Let me ask...Is it heating during use, or it it heating during wireless charging? My S24 Ultra will get hot when wireless charging if I leave my Magsafe Case on, but not if I take it off. Irritating but it's what I have to do every night.
