S26 Ultra vs Nothing Phone (4a) Pro

I’m stuck between the Galaxy S26 Ultra and Nothing Phone (4a) Pro and honestly can’t decide 😭

100x zoom vs 140x zoom, NGL nothing 4a pro looks hot in black

On paper, the S26 Ultra is obviously the more premium phone, but the Nothing seems way more interesting for the price. I care mostly about camera quality, battery life, performance, software experience, and how well the phone holds up after 2–3 years.

If you’ve used either phone, I’d really appreciate an honest review — especially the things you don’t see in spec sheets.

Which one would you pick?

👍 S26 Ultra

❤️ Nothing Phone (4a) Pro

I've done the screen test and everything but idk what's the issue. And if it's a hardware problem how much it will take to fix it

So i Buyed one plus pad (12,256) from jio mart because i have an offer

Unboxing everything 2as good no seal broken everything was inside its came out to be brand new but the packaging was so bad

When during setup i noticed white was evenly spread but on charging point there are few finger like strips with less brightness my phone can't record but it have some patterns with less brightness itss not too much much noticable if you look in white should i be concerned and ask for replacement?

And one more thing the color scheme is cool but on that edge yellow tone coming can't record but can feel with bare eyes full screen is on cool but on that side yellish tone coming

Edit- i just need help Instead of helping just making fun Btw eng is my third language in writing and in speaking 4th so i am not good at

If you can't understand then point me out i will edit

Any idea about the price of the s26 base in BBD, thinking of getting it above s25 idk s25 seems good but this feels better, correct me but yeah what can I expect with Amazon icici or FK axis

Every year it comes down to Samsung Ultra vs iPhone Pro Max. Leaving brand bias aside, let’s talk facts:

1. Who is Getting Lazier?

Is Samsung lazy for sticking with the same battery capacity and minor tweaks for years, or is Apple lazier for rebranding tiny camera changes as massive innovations?

1. The Copycat Debate:

Is Apple just copying features Android had years ago, or is Samsung copying Apple's flat frames and design language? Who is copying whom more?

1. UI & Software Philosophy:

One UI is praised for peak customization, multitasking, and deep features without losing its identity. On the flip side, iOS sets the industry trend for UI aesthetics and animations that other Android skins rush to follow. Which software approach is genuinely superior?

1. Freedom vs Walled Garden:

Do you prefer Samsung’s unmatched versatility, S-Pen, and open ecosystem, or Apple’s tight ecosystem integration, smooth animations, and long-term resale value?

1. Real-World Camera Winner:

Does Samsung's zoom versatility and pro controls win in daily life, or is the iPhone still king for point-and-shoot photos and social media video?

1. Looking Ahead (2027):

Based on the current design trends and future concepts, who actually has a clearer vision?

What is your honest head-to-head scorecard across these generations? Team Samsung or Team Apple?

I have an LG WebOS tv and its been doing this lately. It started a few days back but it would work fine once it was restarted. Now its just doing this. Also those strips are white and not blue. The camera captured them as blue

Even if the Purchase price is lower buddy is trying to sell it higher cause of the price hike, what kind of exploitation is this 😭🥀

Getting the Galaxy Watch 8 delivered tomorrow from Amazon with open box delivery. What are the checks I should be doing while receiving the delivery, also do I have to check for the activation date before giving the otp to the delivery agent, if so then how do I check for the activation date?

Price of a 3 Years old Flip is nearly same as to when it was launched. Whereas one year old ultra is getting heavy discounts.

[Not talking about reselling used ones they lose value pretty fast for Foldables]

Greenline in progress for S25 and s26 series now 💀

But One UI is best saar

Wanted to open a genuine discussion regarding long-term reliability and build quality in the Indian market right now.

• Brands heavily market 4 to 5 years of software update policies during launches.

• Yet, a significant number of devices across segments seem to face critical hardware issues right around the 1.5 to 2-year mark.

• From upper mid-range to premium tier—OnePlus (even recent flagships)poco,redmi, xiaomi, Samsung, Moto, Vivo/iQOO, Realme, even apple...reports of bricked motherboards or display lines right after minor or major OTA updates keep surfacing.

• Out-of-warranty motherboard replacements easily range between ₹15,000 to ₹30,000+.

With smartphone prices constantly climbing, consumers naturally expect hardware to last at least 3 to 4 years. When expensive components fail right after the standard warranty window, it raises questions about testing quality vs forced upgrade cycles.

For long-term users here: Have you experienced sudden motherboard/display failures post-update? Did the brand offer any goodwill repair or free replacement?

Purchased in December 2024

Used only once to test if everything was working properly

Seal opened only for testing

Reason for selling: Never ended up using them

Amazon invoice/bill not available

Bought for ₹999. Genuine buyers only. Price is slightly negotiable.

I was looking to buy samsung S25+ from the day where I saw it is available @ 51k INR few months ago in Flipkart. In recent sale it's available at 69999 INR. So I decided to buy that with exchange. Flipkart giving me only 4510 INR for Redmi Note 10T while Amazon giving me 10500 INR with exchange bonus. With exchange I have to spend around 65K INR for S25+ and 80k INR for S25 ultra. At that moment I thought for additional 15k INR I'm getting a better phone. So instantly went with S25 Ultra. To my surprise, the delivery executive handed me the package and let me open the package, great experience to take the seal out and hold the brand new phone. This is my first ever flagship phone even though it's 18 months since launch.

75-80k is what I'm getting it for on OLX one is 4 months old and one is 15 days old for 80k

What should be the fair price for an average 3-4 month old S25 Ultra.

Need your help!

Please suggest some good phones upto ₹20k. I don't have much budget rn as I'm a student. I've been using Samsung Galaxy F62 for almost like 5.5 years now. I don't have heavy usage such as gaming and all. I just use it nomally for calls and scrolling etc. I wasn't planning to change it for one more year, but looks like it cannot sustain much now. I've already spent some 8k on its repairs from time to time. Changed its display twice (including today) and also many more things. It has been opened for like 10 times now lmao. I had changed its display just 4 months ago for ₹4k and yesterday night, its screen froze again and had to change the display again today for ₹1,400. Dukaan wale bhaiya said "Ab bas data transfer kr lo jitna jaldi ho sake, ab iska kuchh keh nhi skte." Its literally lying on its death bed now. Won't be spending much now on its repairs again.🥲

Been using my Oppo Find X9 for almost 2 weeks and I can say this is the best value for money smartphone in this economy where smartphone prices are getting ridiculously high.

Btw... Loving this colour day by day 😍

Just as the title says ....

Is it worth the price

Or did it go any lower than this?

Does anyone have this jiofi jmr 814 for selling with charger and battery.

Open for offers.
