  • Comparing Samsung’s Galaxy S23 Ultra vs Google’s Pixel 7 Pro to see which Android smartphone is best for camera tech, gaming, battery life & beyond! I’ve used both the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and Pixel 7 Pro as my full-time phone (check my review videos here on Tech Spurt) and here’s my real life verdict.
    For the camera tests, here’s some side-by-side photos shot on both flagship phones. The Samsung S23 Ultra pumps out brighter photos with its 200MP HP2 sensor, while the Pixel 7 Pro’s 50MP camera tends to produce more natural pics. However, they’re both great for everyday photography and impress at night.
    Gamers should check out the Galaxy S23 Ultra, as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 means beefier performance for Genshin Impact etc vs Google's smartphone. The Pixel 7 Pro is still fine for gaming, just not as dependable. Battery life is also superior on the S23 Ultra, although it's quite a bit more expensive.
    So are you more tempted by the Galaxy or the Pixel? Which is the best phone in 2023? Well, I prefer the tidier Pixel 7 Pro setup with some excellent unique features, plus those more natural camera results. However, the Samsung S23 Ultra's package of performance, longevity and S Pen action will be far too tempting for others.

    I have the pixel 7 pro right now, and as somebody who has UA-cam in the background while I'm playing games the battery doesn't last long at all. This phone has amazing features, and I truly love it. However, it isn't built to multitask. If you are doing one thing at a time it works great. It gets really warm very quickly.

    I prefer the Pixel 7 Pro as a camera due to its image post processing, how it take natural colours, lights and shadows, and for the price. CPU, screen, sound and battery life in the Pixel are more than enough for me, but cameras are the most important for me and my taste. I like both brands, but for now I choose the Pixel.

    Both phones are great but I picked up the s23u and am now selling my pixel 7 pro. I also had the s22u and at first glance it seemed there wasn't much of a difference between last year's model and this year's but i must say there are some positive changes under the hood. The s23u feels lightning fast, extremely smooth , great camera upgrades and a battery life I've never experienced on a Samsung phone before. I'm extremely pleased so far from my experience.

Moreso, the older chipset gets hot fast and throttles like crazy, so it will lag and stutter. So whatever os you use, even one UI 9, it will still run like crap because the hardware was crap on the s22 and on the s23 is excellent, an excellent chipset after so many years of crappy chipsets. The last good chipset on the Samsung phones, but only in US was the snapdragon 865. Fantastic chip, great performance, very little heat and great battery. On the s20

    There are a couple things you missed and don't worry, EVERYONE, who does these type of reviews does. I use my phone as a music source, streaming lossless audio in my hifi aftermarket car audio system, at home with an audiophile audio setup and with my higher quality, over ear headphones. The S23 phones are superior to the Pixels because the S23 series support Dolby Atmos processing while the Pixels DO NOT. Beyond the Dolby processing the S23 phones also feature UHQ Audio Upscaling used with headphones. These features makes a big difference in the streaming audio quality. I wish that more reviewers would be knowledgeable enough to include this aspect in their reviews. We use our phones for more than just the screen and camera quality. You don't have to be an audiophile wanna be like me to have a better audio experience with any of the S23s. Still, audio streaming is a big deal for me and so in that way, my S23+ (or S23 Ultra if you have it) is superior to the Pixel 7 pro.

      looks can be deceiving its a rip off its way to dumbed down for the $999 price I'd want the s23+ to become the true s23 ultra since the s23 ultra is an s23 note we should have the s23 at $699 s23+ at $799 s23 ultra $999 and s23 note $1099 because for what the s23+ is it should cost $799 or either have the s23 s23 ultra and s23 note and remove the plus line. Samsung should've taken over the plus territory instead of talking away the true s ultra, I love the boxy design and can't live without the spen but alot just want the top of the line s and not the note. The whole purpose of the plus to be an s23 in a bigger shell to save u cost like wants $200 $3-$5 extra per month and the gains are significant form the plus to the ultra. The s21+ s22+ and now s23+ not a bad phone but the price isn't acceptable the pixel for $899 QHD+ display, better camera and even one plus 11 for $699 QHD+ res and the s23+ $999, FHD+ display, not flagship camera and not just a slighlty bigger entry level flagship

    Well, I know that both are supposed to be top models, but I would love for Pixel to be actually compared to base S23, as they are the same price (actually Pixel is currently £100 cheaper in the UK). I'm saying that because I'm sure I'm not the only one interested in buying a phone in that price bracket. And looking at it this way, Pixel 7 Pro and OnePlus 11 are arguably better deals than S23.
    Also, it is pretty obvious that S23U will be slightly better, I mean, I would expect it for a device that costs at least £400 more.

      Same here. After battery optimization AI figured out what was going on. I can typically get 2 days of use out of the phone and end up at about 20% battery. I suppose it would qualify as moderate use because in that 2-day. I'll have just over 5 hours of SOT. If I'm using the camera app or browsing a gaming heavily, it'll have to be charged once a day. I use the Accu battery app and typically charge to somewhere between 80 and 92% and still get the 2-day battery life, typically always on mobile and high refresh enabled. Love it so far!

    I got my Pixel 7 Pro for half the price through my carrier for trading in my Galaxy S20 on launch week. I can't get anywhere near that good of a deal even if I wanted to switch to the S23 Ultra. The Pixel's also good enough for what I do with it for me to want to switch (basic social media/web browsing, not much gaming), so I'll stick with my Pixel.
    Also helps that the Pixel actually has features that I want to use. I don't care for DeX since I have my laptop around me whenever I need it, and I tried an S-Pen before and it doesn't really do anything for me that makes me REALLY want a S23. In comparison, Call Screening alone has been saving my ass from useless calls, and Google Assistant has been way more useful than Bixby.

    Had Galaxy phones dating back to the Epic 4g. Retired my S8 for a P2 XL, haven't looked back at a Galaxy since.. Especially the price. I am not paying over $1600 for a phone. I don't game, I just take pictures and daily use, works just fine. I have a P7 Pro now. Can't go wrong with stock android, photo processing, and software experience has always been fluid for me. Though, I will say coming from a P4 XL, the facial recognition on the 4 is superior to the 7 series. Unfortunately, Google got cheap and just went with a minimum class 3 sensor for facial recognition on the 7 series. So, the phone doesn't always unlock, especially in low lit areas, and you can't unlock if you're wearing sunglasses, but you could easily do this on the 4. Probably my only gripe so far. To each their own. Samsung has always had the big specs and hardware on their phones, but their software is something questionable and a different story altogether, imo.. :X

    Spurty, mate, a proper review of the Plus model perhaps? Can't find a decent review of the S23+ anywhere yet.
    I terribly dislike the boxy design, the weight and uneven bezels of the Ultra, that's the reason I moved from the S21 Ultra to a Pixel 7 Pro. Quite happy with the P7 Pro, except, the battery life is abysmal and I MUCH prefer the symmetrical design and flat front of the S23 and 23+. The garbage Exynos chip of the S22 series is what stopped me from getting a S22+.
