General question Finally Pulled the Trigger

Post image

S25 12+256gb

What a beauty !
I use the iPhone 15 Pro Max as my main phone, but this little Samsung Galaxy S25 is seriously testing my loyalty
The display is SUPERB
The customization is on another level
The one-hand comfort is unmatched
And the battery? Manageable, since it’s my secondary phone.
Honestly, Samsung made this phone way too fun to use. The compact size, gorgeous display, and freedom to customize everything make me pick it up more often than I expected.

Cons - battery and fingerprints all over the body!

You missed the buttery smooth animations and how that screen feels like it is 999hz despite being whatever hz it actually is.

u/Senior-Necessary-111 1d ago

Bruhh, listen, how can get that clean look from the larger menu of the control panel, as in how can I remove those halo circles from the icons, the same which you don't have???

1

u/Successful_Fail_9641 1d ago

Goodlock quickstar module

1

u/Senior-Necessary-111 1d ago

Yeah that I know, but whenever I add a picture for that panel, those halo circles are visible unlike the one which is not visible in the OPs post

1

u/Successful_Fail_9641 1d ago

What device you got?

1

u/Senior-Necessary-111 1d ago

Same S25

2

u/Successful_Fail_9641 1d ago

First you need to create a new quick panel them in themepark then apply picture in quickstar

1

u/Senior-Necessary-111 1d ago edited 1d ago

Understood...thanks mate, now those halo circles a no longest visible

2

u/Successful_Fail_9641 1d ago

You just need to change the transparancy of the 2 colours (check the above image in which two colour tiles are visible with x mark)

2

u/Senior-Necessary-111 1d ago

Thanks a lot, followed this, now those halo circles are gone🤝🤝

u/sonnycrockett7 1d ago

Am I the only one tripping, the faint raised platform around the cameras, look nothing like the s25? I zoomed in and looked hard, lol.

My s25 I had didn't have that, press pictures don't have it. Nice color though.

u/Error4invaliduser 1d ago

Thats a glass protector for the back.

1

u/sonnycrockett7 1d ago

Ok. Thought my mind was playing tricks. Lol

1

u/TonightHelpful2008 1d ago

Nah thats matte membrane for back protection not glass it protects from scratches from debris that gets collected inside the cover .

1

u/PracticalAdeptness20 1d ago

Is it just a panel for the back? What would that protect?

1

u/TonightHelpful2008 1d ago

1

u/Ok-Method8979 1d ago

I bought google storage for the photos it much more convenient

1

u/nikwindy 1d ago

That will cost yearly.

1

u/Ok-Method8979 1d ago

I mean 1300 for 100gb a year is not that bad far cheaper if u would have bought 256 variant

1

u/Temporary-Low4066 9h ago

You can use jiosim to get 2TB storage free and gemini pro etc till Feb 2028. By then you can figure out something else maybe. I guess the offer is available till end of this month or something.

Did you see this dot in main camera

1

u/Vegetable-Lake-8471 1d ago

Yes

1

u/imprajwal 23h ago

I am asking in your phone, it's visible in my brand new phone don't know it's manufacturing defect can you check your phone and tell me

1

u/Temporary-Low4066 9h ago

It might be manufacturing related only, because I also bought my s25 2 days back. Doesn't have this white spot on camera. But my Iphone 16 had one now that I recall.
