Right when I saw the reveal of the S23 and S23+ I loved the new camera bumps. Super clean. I am glad to hear that the phone delivers on quality upgrades! Thank you for being one of the early reviewers of the S23+ which seems to be forgotten by a lot of people... Keep up the to-the-point reviews, Ryan!
I think Samsung didn't need an ultra version. Just swap the camera from the 23 ultra to the 23+ , and increase the screen resolution to 1440p would make it the best phone overall! People would've loved it. The Ultra is super heavy, which makes it uncomfortable to hold
I went from the s10e to the s23+. At first I thought it was too big but I adapted (still huge tho). The s23+ is the simply the best. Crazy fast and clean graphics. I get around 8hrs screen time with heavy use and 10+hrs when used moderately. Cant fault this phone.
The S23+ is a great phone in so many aspects. I'm especially drawn to the new design and the fact that every version now has the same processor. Very impressive, nice job Ryan, I appreciate your presentation.
The new 8G2 processor paired with a more efficient screen make this a battery beast. I think it's a great middle child between the ultra and the base model. Might be the best!
@@Giggle_Gang1 I’m on my regular iPhone 14 now, I’ve been using it from 9am and it’s 11.13pm in Australia, I’ve been on it all day for work and watched 3 hours of UA-cam tonight. It has 64% battery left. No Samsung in the history of earth can do that
The S23+ seems to be a solid phone with great battery performance (from recent reviews), a good camera system and a fast and efficient Snap 8Gen2. The only criticism I do have on it is really the 1080p screen and it not being LTPO (If it was, the battery performance would probably be even more spectacular). Thank you for the review! Most are just focused on the Ultra and forget about the Base S23 and the S23+
A lot of other tech tubers say it's a "incremental" or "cosmetic" update, they're not talking about UFS 4.0 or DDR5X, WiFI 7, etc. Thanks for the review and for touching on most of these updates.
The battery life alone makes one of Samsung's biggest successes in my opinion. They did a great job with this generation. I agree to your listed terms and conditions.
I presently have the S22 ultra. But with all the upgrades the S23 series has received, I am actually considering going back to the smaller S23+. Love and miss the flat screen, and it is so much easier to hold, but packs a punch. Great video, answers a few more questions.
My name is Sye. I'm the oldest of 8 siblings and I live in a small apartment with my mom and dad. I need this phone to restore their wedding photos. I think it would bring a lot of joy to my mother seeing as she's been really stressed because my dad is always overseas for work. It's hard on her and I want to brighten her day. We don't have much money, the phone I currently have is a ZTE Z820. It's pretty slow but I manage. I'm trying to get a job and raise money as well. A phone with a faster speed would help me and my family. I'm reaching out because I have no other way of getting anything. Sometimes it's okay to beg if needed. I hope this gets to you, thank you for listening, Sye.
I really liked samsungs new line-up of phones. They look sleek and feel more premium than the non-pro iPhone. I thought I would get the iPhone 14 pro this year but I might just go for the s23 instead and save a bit of money
This phone truly shines even though it is the middle child. I also love the design and I am happy to see Samsung focus more on refinement this year. The subtle upgrades, both hardware and software will make this a huge upgrade. Excited to see what the 8 Gen 2 brings to the table.
I have the phone from the end of Feb and I love it. Moved from OnePlus 8 Pro and the difference is amazing. Awesome performance, overwhelming amount of options to tweak it, great battery and cameras... I like it quite a lot :)
I'm really happy about the efficiency gains as my Galaxy S8 needs to be charged 2 or more times throughout the day and I hope the camera doesn't lack too far behind the Ultra. I'm okay with the 1080p screen but I actually prefer the curved display. Moreover, I think the isolated camera rings suit the Ultra more than the regular S23 and that the S22 looks better than the S23. Also wouldn't it be cool if the S23 and/or S23+ got the 108MP sensor from the S22 Ultra or something like that? For me the most convenient feature of the S8 is the swipe down on the fingerprint scanner to pull down the notifications panel and I actually think the heart rate sensor was a neat feature. Anyone of the same opinion? Great video!
I still think Samsung is overcharging for the plus variant for what little gain there is compared to the base. However, am curious about day to day use for myself
According to recent reviews, the S23+ appears to be a reliable phone with excellent battery life, a superb camera system, and a quick and responsive Snap 8Gen2. The only issues I have with it are the 1080p screen and the lack of LTPO (If it was, the battery performance would probably be even more spectacular). I appreciate the review. This device has a beastly battery life because to the new 8G2 chipset and a more brilliant screen. It's a fantastic middle child, in my opinion, between the ultra and the base model. possibly the greatest!
The s23+ is one of the best and most desirable galaxy device ever. Looking forward to own one someday. The improvements samsung has done have come a long way.
Im glad i find you channel! I was searching for phones to buy because im needing a new one because my huawei p smart isnt charging at all, but while i was searching for cheap phones i decided to watch some videos of very good phones just to see even if i cant afford it! Your videos are very explanatory and well produced! i will watch more of them, keep the good work ( i hope i won the giveaway hahah)
This will be my next device later this year. Currently i have a S21 Plus for 14 months, and a Galaxy Note 10 Plus since 3 years wich i let set a new fresh battery,and i will keep it as long possible. So it runs still great. But i am impressed by this S23 Plus.
Ordered the phantom green 512gig variant I'm really looking forward to using it. Will be upgrading from s10. The display being fhd plus was a bummer initially but it's not a big deal from all the videos I have seen
So most of the reviewers have gone on and on about how the plus model is useless, but it's real the one I'd prefer because of the screen size and the fact it looks more comfortable to hold than the ultra
I have recently traded my s22 ultra with s23 + the only reason it's comfortable and handy with good specs. Thank you for the review on s23+ with detailed explanation, and I hope you get more subscribers 😊
Wow you've been getting some really impressive numbers on the battery usage.. I don't really play games that much, it's mostly just browsing, watching videos and face-time.. So I'm guessing i shouldn't have any issues with the battery life on this phone?
Hi Ryan, Thanks for your review with the S23 Ultra, how does the edge curve compare between the S21U and S23U? Does S23U have the same edge curve as S21U. The only reason I haven't upgraded yet, is because of, the edge curve on the S21U is perfect :)
Just curious what kind of screen on time does the s23 plus get? I considered the s23 ultra but I prefer rounded corners and I wouldn't use the s pen. Then I love the compact size of the s23 but I'd be concerned with battery life since I'm a pretty heavy user. So it seems like the s23 plus would be the better option but I need at least 6-7 hours of sot to make it comfortably through a day without charging.
The S23+ should handle 6 hours of heavy use pretty well. In fact depending on your usage pattern it can be more power efficient than the Ultra model (watch my S23+ vs Ultra to find out why). But of course, "heavy usage", or any kind of real life usage pattern is hard to define since we use our phones in different ways.
I've been happy with my 22+ for the past year. But with the promotion they have for trading in for the 23 models, up to $800 in trade-in value even for old and damaged phones? I knew it was time to give my note 8 with the broken screen a send-off. I ordered the regular 23, but the way you talk about the 23+ gives me the impression it's basically the same as the ultra, just missing the S pen and in a neater form factor.
Love the look of the phone. The screen size is perfect because the ultra is a little too big personally. Hope the performance of the new chip proves it worth! Would be a great gift for my birthday in march.
A lot of improvements on this phone from previous version...i will switch from s21+ to 23+ and i am switching just because of battery. Hope i can get about 1.5 day or at least close to it(and 45w charging is kinfa must have today...sadly on normal s23 its jst 25W)
I have never had Samsung phone, but this one really got me. Initially I considered that the base model would be better for me, because of its size, but this one is would fit better because I really need big battery.
Bought s22 and sold it within a day due to the battery performance. face lock and Finger print also were slow.. by watching all the reviews including this one, i feel like s23 is better one to buy now.
I don't wanna get rid of my s10+ it's so good but it's time to upgrade I'm almost out of storage so it's starting to slow down hopefully the s23+ is as good
It really depends. I can easily fill up 256gb in less than a year, someone else might not in a few years. But if you don't take a lot of videos, especially 8K or long 4K videos, then 256GB is a reasonable choice for a couple years. Samsung offered 512 for the price of 256, I don't know if it's still available.
Honestly it depends on a few things like which size, do you pay monthly or yearly, but the short answer is probably yes because you're not locked in to your phone's storage anymore.
Loving the camera updates on the S23 Ultra, hopefully I can get it soon, love your videos, keep up the great work and I acknowledge and agree to the terms and conditions mentioned below :)
I got the s23+ phone but I am kinda confused as to why the chipset has ARM CORTEX-A510, A715 AND A-710. and why it doesn't say snapdragon Gen 2, did i get the wrong chip set or what?
Great vid, thanks!! I've had the S10 for 3 1/2 years, it has been a great phone but the front and back are cracked, so I'm leaning toward replacing it with the S23+ slightly bigger form factor. The $800 trade-in promo ends tomorrow btw.
Correction: I had completely forgotten that the phone has auto fps for recording videos based on lighting conditions. So that's why the fps of those videos mentioned were different every time!
Apparently, it isn't powerful enough to record 4K 60 fps in all cameras in a single footage. Big disappointment on that regard

The Ultra replaced the Note. It just has a different name.
Completely agree. S23+ is ascetically perfect in my opinion. Just add the 10x optical and charge extra if Samsung wants to then fine.
@@atkman too difficult to fit
the s23 ultra has serious camera issues with the ois and video recording. its better that the s23+ has different cameras
@@Rio_3505I agree. Hopefully in a few years on the S27 the battery will be half the size and will allow for even better cameras
Finally a proper review of Galaxy S23+ everyone has been reviewing the Ultra and not so many reviews of 23+. So glad you created this video. Thanks
I went from the s10e to the s23+.
At first I thought it was too big but I adapted (still huge tho).
The s23+ is the simply the best. Crazy fast and clean graphics. I get around 8hrs screen time with heavy use and 10+hrs when used moderately.
Cant fault this phone.
This phone is honestly such a sweet spot between in terms of size, not too small or too big.
The new Processor is a Gamechanger, even when it comes to taking Pictures & Videos because of the processing power
The s23 + is usually overlooked in reviews. Such a nice phone.
The S23+ is a great phone in so many aspects. I'm especially drawn to the new design and the fact that every version now has the same processor. Very impressive, nice job Ryan, I appreciate your presentation.
