Welcome. And follow me is a brand new Samsung Galaxy S24, and today I'll show you a couple
0:06
tweaks and tricks you can do on this device. So to get started, this will be fairly simple
0:13
ones that I technically, or tends to use quite often myself. So let's just get straight into it
0:19
by going into these settings, and here we can start off with the sound and vibration. This will be
0:25
an amazing feature for anyone who's using any kind of earbuds. or headphones. Wired or wireless, it doesn't really matter, though
0:33
probably most of you are using wireless as wired would require the Type C dongle
0:39
It�. It's just a pain. So anything like the typical Samsung Buds or stuff like that
0:44
will work. And just to explain what this is that I'm going to show you, it's the separate
0:49
app, not separate up sound, what am I saying, the sound quality and effects, and here we
0:53
have the adapt sound. And you can enable this, we're going to select allow because it will
0:59
will need to play sound through the headphones or earbuds, whatever you're going to be using for this
1:04
Keep in mind that this works only with headphones or earbuds. It will not work with the actual
1:09
phone speaker if that is something that you want to try. Now I don't have any connected
1:14
earbuds or headphones to this device right now, so I won't be able to set it up, but you can just
1:21
enable it. And you have a couple of presets. We have that 30, 30 to 60 and 60 and over. Obviously
1:26
the age ranges. And you can choose either one of those. whatever category you fall under but what I recommend doing is actually selecting the last
1:35
option just add personalized sound profile and what this will do is once you have your
1:40
sound periphery and inserted let's call it that way you can go through this and it will
1:48
start playing a series of different sounds either through left or right ear and all you need to
1:53
do is just honestly selected if you can hear it or not and this therefore once you go
1:59
through it will create a custom tailored equalizer specifically to your hearing
2:05
This is supposedly designed for hearing, but a kind of effect that it also will have is
2:11
if you have some kind of cheap earbuds that don't really give you a super wide range of sounds
2:18
so they might sound very flat as an example, not much base
2:23
You could go through this, set it up, and it could increase the base of those earbuds
2:29
assuming this kind of tones that this earbud supposed to produce you didn't hear
2:34
the phone will then crank it up hopefully making up some of the like lower performance of the
2:41
earbud itself by just cranking up that specific sound and furthermore if you want to once you
2:48
set that up you can also go into EQilizer and create a custom etuilizer past the actual like
2:54
adopting sound so pretty good option right here and this as far as I know is just a Samsung exclusive option Now anyway moving on we going to go to the display section and here we have a bunch of different things as you will spend
3:09
most of your time staring at the display you might as well make the display experience as good as you
3:14
can now i'll be honest most of these things right here are subjective so you might not like
3:21
some of the things that i will be showing but like i said it's completely up to you so number one we
3:26
have the light and dark mode now I believe this is actually shown as an option
3:30
throughout the setup process but what isn't shown is the dark mode settings below
3:34
that which allows you to set it up on a schedule basis so it will turn on and off
3:38
at either sunset to sunrise or on a custom schedule utilizing basically both
3:44
light and dark modes at the same net at the same time but throughout the day
3:48
alternatively you can just enable it permanently but I think the latter
3:56
is better, I mean the one that allows you to make it on the schedule. Now
4:02
moving a little bit further down, we have motion smoothness. This is set
4:06
to adaptive, which is pretty good already. This display does drop down
4:10
to I believe like 1 hertz to preserve battery life, so it is pretty good
4:14
But you do have the standard option, which just reduces the refresh rate to 60
4:18
Makes things look a little bit more choppy, but for instance, if you're using
4:22
this device to read books, you might find that you get a better battery life with the standard option compared to the adaptive
4:32
Now when it comes down to battery life and the refresh rate it has no effect when the screen
4:37
is off. Just want to point that out. Moving a little bit further down we have the adaptive color
4:44
tone and this is as far as I could basically explain this a true tone ripped from Apple
4:51
It just makes the display look a little bit more yellowish or bluish depending on the
4:56
environment that you are in it will try to match the color temperature of
5:00
whatever it's around you so this example I have two lights and if I were to
5:05
turn off the main one which is colder one it will only give me warm and this
5:09
device should in theory get a little bit warmer so you can see the change
5:18
when I enable it and disable it it stopped doing any kind of change okay
5:26
So I think I just kind of messed it up a little bit. But whatever. You get the point
5:30
It basically tries to mimic the environment. And the effect of this, apart from initially like enabling it and making it seem like the display just get really yellow
5:43
It will have this effect sometimes where you will look at something and it will look just like a literal page
5:51
Obviously vibrant and colorful or whatever. But it might look like just little, for instance, comic
5:56
page if it adopts very well to the environment and obviously in certain cases like during night time I believe it does tend to cater more towards the warmer tones which are less hoarse to the eye and obviously make you hopefully fall easier to sleep
6:18
Now, continuing a little bit further down, we have the screen mode
6:22
This is color mode, I think they should add it. And by default, Samsung always picks vivid
6:27
Now, Samsung, in my opinion, has the colors. way overtuned. So when it comes onto pictures like this, they just look egregious to me
6:37
I cannot stand the vivid mode on Samsung, so I do tend to switch to natural, which makes it
6:43
a little bit less saturated, which is what I prefer myself. Now, it would be told, some images
6:49
will look worse. For instance, the last example right here obviously looks significantly better
6:55
when their saturation is cranked up to unreasonable levels. But when it comes onto like this one
7:01
right here specifically, natural just hands down better. And I obviously understand why Samsung enables Vivid
7:10
It's because, for people that might not be aware, if you go to the store and look at the entire shelf full of phones
7:17
the one that you will probably be interested the most, the one that will catch your eye, is the one that produces the most vibrant colors
7:25
Now, moving further on, we have the... sidebar it is enabled by default and I believe it actually is also under the display section
7:40
yep so there it is it's the edge panel so you can pull that out and it will give you a bunch of
7:47
applications which you can enable disable open I can click on the pencil to add more or remove them
7:55
now contrary to the actual size of this you can add stupid amount of applications basically all of
8:00
them if you really wanted to and just to demonstrate this I'm really going to do
8:04
just that now this is a good thing to have more reasonable amount of
8:10
applications that you want to maybe split screen with quickly open or anything
8:15
along those lines so now you can see it becomes scrollable now the way it
8:19
works is at the top above that line you'll have four applications that will
8:25
cycle through to to pick the four most recent applications and below that are the static apps that you have added that won't change now there's a couple
8:35
neat use cases and here so as an example if i have something open like an application i can also
8:42
bring out the panel and then for instance bring up an application by holding it dragging it over
8:47
to the top and before i drop it you can see that it separates the screen so if i drop it right here
8:52
it will split it and give me i think contacts that i'm holding on the top can also drag it to the bottom
8:59
this will also split it then to the bottom or i can put it in the middle and open it up in a pop-up view
9:04
which i can then just drag around hide and all that stuff now going into split screen another interesting option that I can do is
9:15
as you can see, there's nothing visible just yet, but we have a split screen. Now, if I close it, go back
9:22
You can see it shows up right here as a split screen application. So contact and photos, and then I can grab it from here
9:29
drag it a little bit lower. Hello, come on. Why don't you want to get out it
9:35
Let's try to maybe remove something. Get rid of photos and contacts
9:42
Maybe that's what's affecting it. There we go. So it looks like that was the problem
9:49
So once you add the application, you can then quickly launch it from here
9:53
and it will automatically open that split screen combination of applications. On the bigger devices like the folder, for instance, you can have, I believe, up to four applications in a split screen
10:03
So that is even better. Here I believe we're only limited to..
10:09
Yeah, we're only limited to two applications along with the pop-up, but that won't count
10:15
And anyway, last thing that I wanted to show you is the gesture navigation
10:20
which removes the buttons from the bottom. So let's go into the settings
10:26
And then I think it's still under the display. Yep, navigation bar
10:32
And here we can select swipe gesture. it removes the buttons and substitutes it for this little tiny little bar right here
10:40
that you swipe up to go home swipe up and hold to go to recent applications and swipe
10:45
from either side to go back now one more thing that I can find in here is the
10:50
I guess it's under more options did they remove it yep it looks like they removed it so never mind I can't find it
11:04
Samsung for you. So what I was going to show you, just for people that might be curious
11:09
typically you can hide this little bar from the bottom on other devices
11:13
to give even cleaner look, but Samsung's approach to this was so absolutely abhorrent
11:18
dog shit garbage execution of this that instead of fixing it, like probably a trillion-dollar company
11:25
that they are should have done as they just decided to remove it, as they always do with anything else
11:30
because it would actually make the experience of using third-party lunches, it's better. But now, removing it is a better option. I just can't with this company
11:41
Anyway, so I guess I'm going to just keep it out the gesture navigation and you no longer have the
11:46
option to... Yeah, you no longer have the option to actually hide the bar, unfortunately. So
11:56
in any case, this will conclude the tweaks and tricks around to show you. So if you found this
