I agree, people think because it looks similar that it’s not an upgrade but in fact the hardware is vastly changed way better efficiency and performance that is on par with the a15 and slightly less in cpu than the mighty a16 which is substantial for android. The much faster ram and storage, camera low light performance video, slight more flat design language etc…this is an impressive upgrade esp for those on exynos. The current s22ultra snapdragon is still amazing so you don’t have to upgrade but if you do the upgrades are welcomed.

@@kaiichinose9590 stop it, its a minor incremental update over the S22 Ultra.

@@ssaini5028 no I don’t think I will. The exynos variant is not very good. You ain’t saying stop it on the iPhone 12-14. For some battery life has been all over the place which might be enough reason. For you it might not be worth it. For others who don’t upgrade there phone every five minutes don’t need to upgrade but for new customers it’s def welcomed. I don’t hear you saying stop it for the face lift refreshes on cars or every other product in industries. It’s just how things are 1-4 years before the biiiiiiiiig changes.

Um noo SKY BLUE ORDERED

@@kaiichinose9590 agreed for someone with an older device the S23 Ultra with the Snap Dragon is a huge upgrade. Unfortunately the Samsung is not worth $100 more than the iPhone 14 Pro max and definitely not $300 more than the Pixel 7 Pro. Pricing aloine puts it in a difficult spot. Also its said that the OS on the Samsung takes up 60GB which is massive. The Pixel only takes up 15GB of internal storage.

It really is. This phone is like motor swapping a car.

I agree. RAM = improved Storage Speed = improved All sensors = new and improved Curved screen = improved Glass strength = improved CPU = improved GPU = Improved ISP = improved Base storage = doubled WiFi = improved Speakers = improved Battery = improved Cooling system = improved Bluetooth = improved OIS housing and motors = doubled in size and improved It's not like they just touched up one or two things. This is a complete overhaul with the exception of the screen which was already the best screen in the industry so.... (The iPhone has a brighter Panel, but you also have that hideous giant hole in the top of the screen so that makes it worse for me).

I think he means in day to day use it doesn't feel that dif

Very small changes are for iPhone 14,15,16 etc.....

for my s22 ultra exynos im pretty sure will see differences....cant wait for tommorows delivery

How's the video? The N20U takes mediocre 4K60 video.

How did you get it early? I have to wait until the 17th. I think.

I'm thinking on buying Note 20 for nostalgia. Already ordered S.23 Ultra

is it fast? phones shouldnt be just about camera, its not like we professional photographers...

@@NoCampDad I've seen some carriers from outside of the us be giving em out

Thanks man!

Hey dude i agree with you! I have s9 plus and i wanted my next phone without edges! I went in storw and play with s23 ultra and plus! The display on ultra is more vivid and less pixelized... on s23 plis i saw pixels on screen and both of them were in 1080! I was going for plus bit when i see them i will buy ultra! Thankfully the edges i hate are smaller now! Hiw do yoy protecr you screen?

S23 or Ultra?

@@nawmsayin8017 I ordered the ultra.

@@Rickseavey84 I ordered the ultra - said it was going to be delivered 13th (UK) but was delivered yesterday. Did you order it from Samsung? Here in the UK they had double the storage for the same price.

@Lee Ovenden I ordered it though at&t when I switched providers.

from an s22 ultra, i would say not really. from another ecosystem or a much older samsung phone, I'd say hell yes

I can't wait to replace my six year old Note 20 Ultra with the Samsung S23 Ultra.

@@SetterAquariums the note 20 ultra came out 3 years ago...

@@insanity3840 I got mine six years ago.

@@SetterAquariums It’s not a note 20 ultra then. the note 20 ultra was released 3 years ago in 2020

I like the sky blue 💙 😍

Just order a black s23 ultra 🔥

I feel like colors are a waste this year, just get yourself a colored case lol.

How do you protect the screen? Is so curved like s22u?

@nikos bn I used spegin neo flex for my s23 ultra screen protector and spigen tough armor for the case. I also got the spigen camera protectors, my phone looks and feels amazing.

Is it really green or more grey? What colour is the side bits I'm coming from a s22 ultra

I have graphite too. Its been a really great phone

Do whatever you think looks best! Don't ever compromise to save a few percent of battery though… We pay alot for the phones, they have great screens so use them lol!

Exactly man he had it for a week and is an expert I got an iPhone 14 pro that has bugs and you never hear people talk about them .

I can tell you now flossy carter is the Best reviewer these others are full of shit. And I have the 13 pro max and it’s in 16.3 and man so many issues can’t wait for the s23U lime green.

@@solomonkane408 Exactly! They make ios appear flawless. iOS is becoming more and more Android by the day and these people act like that's apple's innovations. Extremely frustrating.

@@gotblessed1037 The only reviewer I trust is MKBHD. I feel he's the only non sponsored non biased reviewer out there. If his review is positive, that's good enough for me.

one of the best phones ever made. The only thing I dont like is the 12MP selfie camera but meh doesnt bother me too much...

@Hewhoremains I kept my s10 but I appreciate the wisdom

Not really if you are right handed it's kinda good there cuz then you switch your hands to grab and start writing right away

Exactly. I have a Note10+ and the trade ins just not worth it cuz it works really good still but they want to give pennies. Phone nowdays cost too much and don't even have basic features like sdcard support. Kind of rediculous.

I find it interesting how the trade in deals are better after the pre order stuff is over.

@@KBlade1 they know who the suckers are lol Pre orders are for people who want it no matter what to be 'first' when in reality it doesn't even matter.

Ha ha how do u know that this have aproorvment?!

The Ultra is the best, albeit pricey. I tried to hold all 3 in my hand. The Ultra is even better to hold.

Really depends on your needs & uses. I love the canera6in the Ultra but not enough to have a huge phone I gotta carry around lol. I also hate curved screens! The base model is a bit to small for me so I went plus. If u do get a base model, please don't get the 128gb, u lose half your storage & the UFS 3.1 Chip sucks compared to the UFS 4.0 on the 256gb base model.

The N20U also takes mediocre 4K60 video. I really hope the S23U takes good quality 4K60 videos.

Lohnt sich!

@Karl_Conrad01 😆😆

I did the same lol that green color will only look great for now in few months time it will become boring. Black is sick

Yes definitely. But only if you really use the cameras and do gpu intensive work on the phone.

My wife just did that upgrade. She says "Hell yes."

I’m switching from my iPhone 12pro max. To the ultra but if I had the 14pro max I would just stick with that.

Stick with the iPhone trust me. Leagues better experience overall. Everytime I switch to a Samsung flagship phone I always go back to my iPhone. I’m using 14 pro max right now. And all of the Samsung phones end up getting sold or filed to the sock drawer. Lol.

It would be a good upgrade. the screen would really make a bigger impression and the telephoto camera would be much more fun to use. And life would be easier when you can unlock the phone not only with your face, but also faster charging, better 5g and I'm tired of continuing to write.

You will get an Different experience with the s23 ultra it might be good or bad it's all how about personal preference 😃 I have the 13 Pro max and now 23 ultra, both phones are fantastic in their own way. If you wanna test android then goo for it ! But if you are happy with your iPhone then I don't se the reason to change, best of luck.

I have the iPhone 13 pro max and I want to go back to Android,so the s23 ultra with the new procesor will be a nice transition!!

Yes, part of the cost-cutting this year means Samsung will not be using the best display. That was the same as last year. The iPhone costs more so you will have to pay extra for the best.

Can I work around iMessage and facetime?

I’m also considering switching from my 13 pro max 😳 I kinda just wanna try something new now (been using apple all my life). Only thing holding me back is of course iMessage/Facetime.

It may be a scratch, but as you said, more likely a material deposit from whatever rubbed against the phone.

Yes. This is a well documented issue with Matt surface glasses. There are lots of video on this.

200mp should be easy for an SD8G2. It either needs better optimisation, a bug, or Samsung not using all the power. VIVO and others are now using their own co-processor for the camera to speed up processing and save battery. I Hope Samsung goes that way with a one-inch sensor instead of 200mp.

Weird, I've had my Samsung for years & no scratches on my screen..

I do want to change my S22 Ultra because the battery life is terrible. To each their own

@@rkymtnchi503 different users different needs.

@@angeldeschain0 they look identical yes, it's what's under the screen is where the improvements are!

How's the battery life?

26 or 27 for me holding onto this 1tb s22u
