I had the Samsung version shit itself. 20 cent ribbon connector blew, Samsung refused to replace it, and instead wanted to replace BOTH screens and the hinge for $600. I threw it in the landfill and bought a $250 Motorola. Idiotic, anti-R2R companies.

Honestly, not much of a difference. Default android is a bit more annoying, and the secure folder is inferior. The cameras are decent. It’s a solid phone, and the stylus is pretty decent for notetaking. I use my stylus for grocery lists. The headphone jack and SD card is awesome. The screen and processor are great, and the battery is way larger AND charges faster than my s9 or my z fold 4. The stylus is about the same as the z fold stylus.

The phone is pretty solid as an all-arounder. For $250-450, it’s hard to have any complaints.

The Stylus 2024 is an excellent phone, coming from Samsung. It was on sale for $250 last year, which was great. I doubt I’ll go back to flagships, tbh. This phone feels nearly as fast as flagships in everyday usage. The only slow part is editing screen recordings or videos, which I seldom do anyways. The headphone jack and microSD card is really nice and surprisingly useful.

They actually are really nice, but they still need some time in terms of reliability. They are awesome for reading books or the news on the go, though. Or if you need a maps application open while biking. I miss mine, but Samsung still has dogshit repairability, so when a 10¢ ribbon cable broke (understandable), their solution was to replace all three screens, or pull a repair shop’s license. A $600 replacement.
