No going to lie, with Samsungs latest offer I'm tempted to trade in my S24 Ultra. They are currently offering £540 for my S24 Ultra and giving a free Galaxy Tab A9 LTE.

And the wallpaper is from this artist. I normally don't buy them but I've been following this one on the Galaxy Store for a couple years.

The best thing about this pack is that even if one of your icons isn't in the pack, it's still follows their formatting. That's usually my biggest complaint with icon packs because we all have those apps that aren't compatible.
Exactly added bonus

What do you mean by, "it still follows their formatting," when they don't have an icon in their icon pack?

If you look at this screenshot, you can see that the icon that isn't supported still follows a similar shape instead of just not theming at all. Bellin and CFCU are good examples.

For the most part, all icon packs follow the same formatting. It’s just whether or not devs/designer are still maintaining the icon packs… because some go unintended and no longer update. Some of my favorite icon packs I decided to remove due to devs/designer abandoning it.

If I had one complaint about one UI, it is that when you try to theme icons with your color pattern, only about half of them change. That's why I'm primarily using Nova icon packs at this point.

Ok, so I apply my icon packs through Samsung's Theme Park. I think it's the best method. For the few apps that aren't covered by the icon pack, I change those apps to a similar or generic icon within that pack. All done through Theme Park. That way every icon is covered. Then save each icon pack, so it's one tap to change between icon packs. What do you use to apply your icon packs?

That's exactly what I do! It can be a little time consuming but once you find a few icon packs that you really love, it's worth the extra couple of minutes.

I always use this icon below, because my bank is never supported when I apply an icon pack.

Well, I've been away, for a while. Now, I have the S25 Ultra and am very happy. As a heavy s pen user (everyone use your s pens often), I'm disappointed in the bluetooth removal but it still rocks. With my two dogs, the pictures are good. Also, compared to the S24 Ultra, the flat sides are great. As for AI, I'm still working on it... Lots to explore.

Glad to see you back!

I'm heavily considering getting the Galaxy Watch Ultra (Since I had the Ultra on the Apple side). I did get the Watch Classic 6 and I really like the looks but I notice that it does stutter sometimes and supposedly the Ultra has a bit better battery life. Also, I only paid $170 for the Classic 6 and Samsung would take $400 on a trade in, lol.

Just not sure if it's reeeeeaaaaallly an upgrade.

I have the Watch Ultra....and love the 3 day battery life. It is beast as far as performance and all that. But it is also a BIG watch. I picked up a Galaxy Watch 5 Pro from local Facebook Marketplace for $85 and love the smaller size. So decided to trade it in on the GW 7. Samsung is giving me $200 trade in for the GW 5 Pro! So the GW 7 LTE is only costing me $180 out the door! Gotta love Samsungs trade in prices!

Their trade in prices really are the best. It's great to know that most likely, next January it'll cost me $400 for the S26 Ultra and I'll probably get another $200 on top of that.

Yeah, I'm guessing it won't be much bigger than my Watch 6 Classic. I probably like the look of the 6 Classic a tiny bit more, but man it's hard to pass up getting $400 for a watch I paid $170 for and then get a better processor and battery life.

You should do it! Did you think any of us would talk you out of it? Not here.... we are all a bad influence! :D

It’s the processor. You get better performance out of the Watch Ultra.
