Mine's already on that so I guess it updated sometime

The S21U was very spotty with connecting to 6E. It would only see it on a router reboot. I thought it was more the router than the S21U, however my laptop would solidly connect to the 6E network, so it must have been the S21U. Since I'm on WiFi7 with the S24U, I haven't kept track of it. I will flip over and check it out later.

It is amazing though how this phone being just a smidge shorter and a smidge wider can feel so different in the hand.

Yes, it's been a fine performer to the edges of my network that I've tested so far. Decent speeds about 50 yards away on my dog walks. S21U would hang and not send messages,etc. Haven't been scientific about it. My mesh is all wired but my ISP is limiting to 1-1.5 gbps (Spectrum).

The S24U is a consistent 1+ gbps down (Everytime I've tested) whereas the S21U sometimes hit that when it would find the 6G network (which was rare). WiFi7 allows simultaneous 2.4/5/6 GHz connection unlike WiFi6 where you had to choose. 2.4/5 or 6. I have serious WiFi issues in my house (100+ devices connected). I did it to myself, I know, but the TPLink BE85/95 have been awesome performers. Specific IoT, main, and guest networks. Nice to park the phone off the chatter.

Anyone else have the Motorola wireless Android Auto dongle? The S24U is really aggressive about connecting to it after the car is long off, eg. car in garage and AA is still trying to connect to the S24U and won't connect to home WiFi. Wasn't the way with the S21U. Perhaps the WiFi is just a better performer? Maybe I have a setting wrong somewhere? Nice to finally have a WiFi7 device to test out my home WiFi and enable the MLO network. Incredibly fast phone all around. Very impressed.

Oh how exciting, I just got my shipping notification 2 weeks earlier than predicted delivery. First new phone in 3 years (S21 Ultra) after being an annual upgrader for a long time, lol. I'm dreading the re-set of all my authenticator codes and other dual auth apps. I did order the car charger linked by @dkyeager . I have a couple, but this one is lower profile. Thanks for the link! My wife also ordered an S24 Ultra (up from the S21+) so I need more powaaaa. Looking forward to the camera upgrades.

I hope that upgrading watches goes more smoothly. I am waiting for a Galaxy Watch 6 Classic (LTE) to replace my 4 Classic (LTE). However, recently (on my 4 classic) I have not been getting SMS to my watch when on LTE and it won't let me use my phone number to text out. I have to use my watch number. This worked well on Sprint (text from phone number while on LTE). I get data and other messages, just not SMS. Hassle. Hopefully the 6 cures all LTE evils.

The CSR indicated that "most" of the Sprint folks were pushed over on 4/28. I guess you guys remain special. Heads up when they do push you over on what lines actually have access to the account administration.

So we were finally kicked over to T-mobile billing as I think everyone has by now? There was no invitation. The Sprint site just doesn't work anymore. Anyone else have account issues with primary lines?? They assigned the account to one of my child's watches, lol. Thankfully the T-mobile CSR were very good and got everything rectified. We're on the Sprint Max plan and the CSR was touting the Go5Gplus plan to us as having "actual premium data" instead of the "premium data" promised with the Sprint Max. Sprint Max tops out at 100 GB of shared data for all lines, then throttles after that. Go5G apparently doesn't throttle ever. She also quoted that Sprint Max has 5 GB hotspot but Go5G would have 60 GB? The Sprint Max clearly says 40 GB hotspot. Color me a little confused, but I think we're fine on the Sprint Max (which is $25 less a month for our 5 lines). (obviously different things like Hulu or Netflix, etc.) Should I reconsider? am I missing anything?

The one UI 5.1 update is available this morning. Says there's some camera updates and other garbage, but so far I can tell that the aggressive face unlock is finally fixed while charging at least for me. I know others may not have had this issue. It was incredibly frustrating

Ditto

oh yeah, I did already
