It’s because timezones. It’s already Saturday in Taiwan.
It’s opt-in.
Apple was waiting for a production implementation of the specification which was published in December. That means they’re the ones delaying the launch.

Assistant doesn’t log messages or summaries, and the interactions aren’t used to train the Large Language Model (LLM).
If you’re still fine using your S8 by all means, no reason to upgrade. The point I was trying to make was that the storage issue was misinformation.
What it boiled down to was two main things: the device showing the advertised storage converted from GB to GiB but displayed as GB, and users not granting the proper permission for the Device Care causing storage taken up by apps to be lumped into the system storage. Samsung later updated devices so users wouldn’t be confused.
Both materials feel cool to the touch when initially held. I’d say the titanium is a bit more grippier which might be relevant if you like to use your phone without a case.
The colours are matched more on the back and frame for the S24/+ compared to the S24U.
One UI doesn’t use that much more space compared to other skins if you judge by the size of the super partition. Unfortunately, ArsTechnica jumped the gun on the topic without doing proper research.
I’ll edit this comment later with a list of pre-installed apps on the US unlocked model later.
Edit: List of pre-installed apps on the (* denotes it can be uninstalled)
-In the Google folder: Google, Chrome, Gmail, Maps, YouTube, Drive*, Google TV*, Meet. And Photos*.
-In the Microsoft folder: LinkedIn*, Microsoft 365*, OneDrive, and Outlook*.
-In the Samsung folder: Find*, Health*, Members*, Messages, My Files, PENUP*, Shop Samsung*, SmartThings*, TV*, Voice Recorder*, Wearable*.
Apps outside the folder: Assistant, Calculator*, Calendar*, Camera, Clock*, Contacts, Facebook*, Gallery, Gaming Hub*, Global Goals*, Internet, Messages, Netflix*, News, Notes*, Phone, Play Store, Settings, Spotify*, Store, Tips*, Wallet*, and YouTube Music*.
In general, the bootloader of US and Canadian models can’t be unlocked. You can with other regional variants, regardless of Snapdragon or Exynos.
We’ll be taking a bunch of photos later today, and I have my S23U with me to compare with. I took a quick shot with 10x on both devices, and at a glance the S24U is sharper.
Going to need to check it out further, but the zoom nightography they demonstrated in the keynote looks crazy.
In the context of getting an 8 Gen 3 device.
Notably mentions 5 OS updates for Google, which may end up being the policy for the Pixel 8 series (so far we only know in general 7 years of updates).
APKMirror is a great option as alluded in the post, but it doesn’t have every single app, and it’s limited to free apps.
Aurora Store is a good option too, but you can only get free apps with an anonymous account. Those accounts are often rate limited as well.
Woops, thanks!
