I think im the only person that prefers OneUI over the Pixel. I even use Samsung default keyboard over Gboard, Samsung Internet over Chrome, and Samsung email client.
Haha, I always say the best phone for You is the one that does what you want and need it to do! I'm glad you love it! That's what's awesome about so many options
S23U has definitely stepped it up compared to its predecessors. My wish tho is that it can be as smooth as the Pixel and as good as the iPhone in the point and shoot department.
I think 'one handed operation plus' in goodlock could help with your one handed issues, its literally my favourite part of good lock. Its one of the main things that keeps me on samsung. There is a quick tools section, its a game changer.
Hey, Christopher! This is an awesome suggestion! I did see that also. I think, for me, the weight balance of the IPhone and Pixel 7 Pro is also a bit better in the hand. But Samsung definitely did an awesome job on the software end to give solutions!
It is like being born again bro believe me. I ain't never going back to Exynos. Video quality on my Exynos 21 Ultra was awful for a flagship. Video on my Snapdragon 23 Ultra is HEAVEN SENT..😂😂😂👍
@Young StunnaI I don't take compliments well. HOWEVER, I will say I appreciate your sentiment and I give the credit to my parents for the collection of Deoxyribonucleic data they gave to me.
The S23 Ultra can not switch between lenses at 4k 60 FPS. So if you start a UHD video at 60 FPS at 1x and then zoom to 10x, it will not be recorded with the telephoto lens. At 4k 30 FPS, the S23 Ultra can switch between lenses. If someone didn't know...
Great review, I'm currently using S21 Ultra, and it's amazing, but the battery is the only weak thing, and Exynos sometimes lags, but I'm definitely getting the S24 Ultra because I feel it's the right time to upgrade! + I love rounded corners
Thanks for the kind words! And niiiccceee, 21 to the 24 is going to be an awesome upgrade for you! Will this variant have Snapdragon for you? Exynos has had throttling issues for a few years now
I like my s21u more than my s23u. Better design, better ergonomics. The software experience is essentially the same so there's no honeymoon period. Wait it out.
yup supposed to have new AMD chips....well rumoured to anyway...exciting times..... but im personally lookin forward to the new huawei in the european market again :P
I'm using the s22U (sd version) and I believe it's the same with s23u. Shooting vids at 4k60 and above doesn't allow switching lenses, try shooting 4k30 and below, then you can switch from .6x to 20x smoothly. 9:40
Its better than the Fold 4. I had the Fold 4 and I absolutely love it and was planning to upgrade to the Fold 5. Unfortunately, the Fold 4 kept freezing each time I use it. I though with the update it would get better but it didn't. I just got tired turning it off and back on. I am now using the 23 Ultra but I do miss the Fold.
Hey, Dr. Acevado! Good to see you here again! You did mention freezing on a previous video, I'm really sorry you had that experience. Knock on wood but my Fold 4 is still going strong! Hopefully that continues. But the S23 Ultra is exceptional and I'm glad you have a great device in hand!
@DAVTech Thanks. I enjoyed your videos. I held on to the Fold 4 as long as I could. It might have been a defective unit but the S23 Ultra is a power house. I'm intrigued with the Pixel Fold. I'll be looking towards that review. 🙂
@@dr.emilyacevedo812 That's completely understandable! As long as you have something that's awesome for you, that's all that matters. And ME TOO! That comparison video will absolutely be coming! 😁
Hey, Honda! That's awesome to hear! I recently picked up the S22 Ultra for a month to do the 1 Year Review and man has that phone aged well! I'm really happy to hear you love it!
@@DavidAVelez1 I was going to try to save a little cash and get the s22u, but I guess if I’m spending that much money in the first place, I may as well go all the way.
8:22 I think you've used different lens and then switched to 10x and in 4k 60fps it cant switch lenses optically, it just uses whatever lens and digital zoom instead. Should try to stop the video, and use x10 straight away and start the video recording
Great reviews 🍆 , however must disagree with a statement of battery always being good on Samsung Phones, unfortunately not true at all. My s9+ needs to be charged 4-6 times a day depending on the usage, kind of annoying. I really want to get s23U but it feels and looks so big + feels bit heavy on hand.
Hello, MoonFlower! Sorry, maybe I conveyed my thought wrong. I was saying that usually Samsung has the raw power, but not necessarily the refinement or battery life. But this time the S23 Ultra is the exception! It runs great AND has awesome battery life. Where, say, even the S22 Ultra runs great but does not have great battery life Also, S9+ whoa! The lithium battery in that is probably warn down, hence the extra charging needed. I 23U is HUUUUGE haha! The one handed features help a lot
Hey, Lee! It's great! I wear it every single day. Huge downside for me though is the battery only lasts one day, and sometimes just barely. Everything else is awesome, though!
Hahahah, right! It's not huge on my list of complaints, but I want to be objective where I can. I know a lot of people care about the vibrational feedback
@kpehe100 I have never seen it either 😂 I appreciate the extra endeavor to assist a shortcoming. But definitely would like it to be on par initially you know?
You had me at giving you 🍆 😅 But yup, Goodlock is amazing and the best part is that it is built by Samsung. It's basically a test bed for features. When everyone said Samsung copied Apple's lock screen design, Goodlock had the same design a year prior. They only made it a part of the official software. So you can comtinue to expect them to roll out features gradually. I have most of the modules installed and have them turned off. If I get a little bored, I change things up.
Hey, Craig! 😂😂😂😂 Thank you for your kind eggplant 😂😂 GoodLock really is amazing! Hopefully those things get added to the phone innately but it adds so much to an already stellar device
🌽 Went from Huawei( Mate 10, Mate 20), to OPPO (Find X3 Pro). I loooooved the camera on those phones. But since Huawei isnt working with Google no more, I switched to OPPO. Loved that phone! But I had to switch because an rumor is going on that OPPO is leaving Europe. (I'm from the Netherlands 🌷🇳🇱) And I do not like the curved screens on the flagship phones from OPPO. Now I use the Samsung S23 Ultra; I have to get used to it. To be fair.. I love the camera's on the OPPO and Huawei a bit better. (for now) I seriously have to get used to this camera..😅 Otherwise I love it!😊😊
That's quite a phone history, Simone! Thank you fir sharing your experience! I have heard EXCELLENT things about the Huawei and OPPO phones, though I haven't been able to try them myself. It is a shame Huawei isn't using Google because their hardware is stellar. Congrats on the S23 Ultra!
@@DavidAVelez1 I have had multiple phone's before those phone's. (I love phone's 🤣) Thanks! I have an question; You downloaded an app for the camera app on the Samsung S23 Ultra. May I know what app you downloaded?? 😊😁😃
@@DavidAVelez1 idk man always talking about in a vaccum, figured u was in on or something 😂 Just joking man love your videos. Looking to upgrade my iPhone 11 Pro Max, debating on switching over to an s23 ultra or or the zfold 4 or if I should just wait for new phones. Still not too sure but I’m definitely switching to Android after watching a couple of your videos
@lilalvi10 That's hilarious, thank you for the laugh 😂 I appreciate the love! And IPhone 11 to any of those phones will honestly be a pretty beefy upgrade for you which is nice. The Pixel 7 Pro is also a great phone if you're looking to not spend too much but want a great all arounder
@@DavidAVelez1 cool cool, yeah I had the 11pro max since it came out and haven’t really seen a real reason to upgrade, but this thing is finally starting to slow down a bit and the battery life ain’t holdin up as well as it use too. Not too worried about the price tag, just looking for something nice and new that will last me the next 5 years. My only concern about getting an s23 rather then an iPhone, is how it will work with the apple ecosystem, considering everyone I know pretty much has an iPhone
I think im the only person that prefers OneUI over the Pixel. I even use Samsung default keyboard over Gboard, Samsung Internet over Chrome, and Samsung email client.

Yes! Point and shoot on those phones is awesome 📷

The European market must be really feeling the performance boost now that they finally get the Snapdragon.
My thoughts also, Mark! I respect trying to get the Exynos going but Snapdragon has just been superior

Never cared to use 60fps no prob here
Hey, Mania! I really appreciate the clarification! I'm big on 60FPS recording on phones, so this has been a great haul of info haha!
If you're team S23 Ultra, drop a 🌽 so I know where you allegiance lies (I'll comment back with a variety of food emojis)
I hope you enjoy the video! 😁

How’s the battery life on the s22 ultra? I’ve heard mix answers on it from videos and forum posts.
