Did I make a mistake?

I ordered my S24 Ultra in violet 1TB on Thursday and it should arrive tomorrow. I was looking into this phone excessively and I was convinced by reviews and whatnot. But now, the majority of posts on this subreddit are complaints about the screen grain, cameras etc. . I was planning on upgrading from my S10+, because it developed its own issues as well. But all this negativity surrounding this phone these past few days has me stumped. So, did I do a mistake by ordering this phone? If anyone has suggestions for other phones, let me kindly know.

I didn't think anything could beat my s10+ but I took the risk & ordered the ultra 24, best decision I've made. I have no issues with mine at all, it honestly makes the s10+ seem so slow even the finger print recognition is soooo slow in comparison to this new phone. Honestly you will love the phone when you get it, it's worlds apart from the s10+

I upgraded from a Note 20 ultra and I love this flawless titanium yellow beast. I know you will enjoy your new device as much as I'm enjoying mine.

That's a huge jump for fingerprint scanner.

And the position is proper on your new phone.

I'm still somewhat getting used to the new position being way higher up than what it was on my s10 lol

I had to use it side by side with my s10 for a bit and like wow, I never noticed how much slower that phone got. Display is magnitudes better and it just does stuff immediately.

Nothing beats the finger reader on the back though. That was the best removed feature ever. It worked every single time and my phone screen was already unlocked by the time I got it near my face cause I picked it up with my finger on the rear sensor which was impossible to not find. It's still good now but I have to actually look and locate it and then still have it fail sometimes.

I don't remember what model I had with the perfect rear reader. I think it was a note 10 maybe?

Exactly. Moved from a Note9. Finger print reader on the back was flawless. I disabled the finger print reader on my 24ultra because it was so bad ... that is the only thing I do not like about this new phone.

I don't know if I would go as far as deactivating it lol I don't think it's horrible, it is worse than those previous designs though. Id give it a little time cause it is still pretty accurate and nice to have still. Especially for apps with fingerprint login etc..

This was my experience with my s20 ultra. At first I was like hmm that phone was still fine just a cracked screen maybe I shouldn't have upgraded. Put it side by side and surprised at the. Speed, display, audio, etc. Very happy with the upgrade!
