    It'd be nice if the S23+ was the S23 Ultra without the pen and just a tad bid smaller rather than an inferior device. I have no interest in the Ultra because of the size and my lack of need for the S-Pen, but I can't downgrade the RAM, the screen resolution and the micro-SD expansion from my S20+.

    Picked up my new s23 plus today for only like $300 trading in a zfold 4. (coming from s22 ultra). I guess I was wrong about the plus model having much less quality of a display. It feels much more comfortable than the Ultra model, and significantly lighter. For some reason, it even feels a little better than the s22 plus. The edges are almost completely flat, and it has a more premium feel.
    Not to mention, it feels much much faster and smoother! I definitely think the plus model is worth it.

    Feeling really underwhelmed with this year's trade in value and pre-order "gifts". Seems like I'm keeping my S10 for a little longer. And yes, we will always ask for expandable storage because they clearly have the technology to do it but they are choosing not to include it. Why have it in the middle range phones but not your "flagship"?

    • @sambrowski1
      @sambrowski1 Рік тому +2

      Because they are greedy and they want people to have to spend the extra money to pay $100 or more for internal storage when it probably costs them pennies.

    The S23+ is perfectly fine. Main thing I've noticed is zoomed pics are rather blurry after 6x zoom on the + compared to the ultra but both take really nice pictures at 1x. Been using both for 2 weeks now and the + is the more useable option to me as the size is perfect and never use the S pen. If you have the option then get the s23+ and a decent tablet for gaming/video.

The + is still large in your pocket but the ultra stuck out and I always thought I would lose it.

      I considered the Plus, but I ended up getting the Ultra and I am glad I did because I use the Periscope lens and S-pen quite often, more than I thought I would. The 10x optical zoom comes in handy when taking pictures of the moon, and 30x zoom still looks pretty clear on the Ultra. The only downside to the Ultra is the cumbersome size, but luckily for me most of my shorts and pants have deep pockets since I am a dude. The extra size is nice for watching videos, shows, and movies though.

    I’m really satisfied with Samsung‘s One U8 operating system because it has more convenient and more free custom settings than Apple.
    There are people who raise their hands on iPhone photos because they love artificially contrasting images, but experts all know that Samsung, which has superior dynamic range expression, is better.
    In particular, there is no ghost phenomenon, and the stability and color expression of 8K video is so great that it can’t be compared to the iPhone.
    Now that the AP doesn‘t lag behind, I don’t feel the need to use Apple, which makes you feel like you‘re stuck in a well-appointed prison, with a zero-value-price component.
    I commend Samsung for not giving up and working diligently even though the profit rate is low.
    Apple, which takes profiteering without development for consumer rights, needs to work harder.

    Well the Ultra has much more new features and here in Holland the S23+ is just way too expensive for what you get. For me, I would normally go for the compact S23 but I couldn't resist a crazy carrier deal for S23 Ultra 1tb (just 60,- more than 512gb after cashback). With carrier discount, a 240,- cashback and a Watch5 lte I'm paying only 850,- for the 1tb S23 Ultra, while the S23 256gb (with only 60,- cashback) is still 800,-.
    So sure I went for the big boy and I'm loving it

    Looking forward to the 8K video recording which should have no cropping compared to 4K, the same as on all Samsung phones with 50MP sensors, such as Fold4. The 9-to-1 binning of the 108MP sensor was the main reason for cropping. The 200MP sensor allows 4-to-1 binning, resulting in 50MP, i.e. the same cropping as in case of 4K. actually, 2x more area of the sensor will now be used compared to the 108MP sensor before.

    Hey Great Honest Review 👍😀👍. I chose the S23+ Over The S23 Ultra for Two Main Reasons: 1. Design Asthetics; The Flat 'RECTANGULAR!' Slab of Gorilla Glass and Metal Sandwich with its sharp Squared Corners That is The S22 Ultra ('Ultra' is Samsungs Rebranded label for the 'Note' after the Horrible Samsung Galaxy Note 7 'EXPLODING BATTERY PROBLEM!!!'). I prefer slightly Curved Edges on My Daily Driver Device. 2. Practicality and Usability; I've tried all three S23's and the reality is that there isn't really any 'Super' Significant Differences between the three S23's that the average person would really Understand or even Care About. The Pricing Didn't matter to me. I just wanted the very best Topend Smartphone that Actually Works Best for 'ME' 😸👍. (SERIOUSLY! Who Cares about the back color of your Smartphone. Any Intelligent Person who pays big bucks for a Topend Smartphone is Going to Use a "Wallet Case". Why?; Because Leather Smartphone Wallet cases have a Durable folding Cover that protects your Smartphones Screen when you put it in your pocket. The Best part is that they have a Built-in Leather Wrist strap that keeps your Expensive Valuable Smartphone from ever hitting the concrete if it Slipps out of your hand.)

I had AndroidS in the past but never a Samsung. I just wish that Samsung could make the ultra a bit smaller for people who have small hands because we love quality too.

    To start with I have S20+5G and had it for already over 2 years.
    I would love to upgrade to the S23+ which would be the equivalent to what I have now but looking at the specs it seems like the screen isn't going to be as good. The reason I say this is because I have 525 Ppi on my screen and on the S23+ is about 100 ppi less than that. So my concern is that the screen performance isn't gonna be as good
    Any thoughts on this 🤔

    • @gamende6969
      @gamende6969 Рік тому +12

      I wouldn't be concerned about your PPI being lower. The difference between QHD and FHD is going to be neglible when talking about phone screens. If you're talking about such high pixel density the difference becomes barely noticeable. Though something that is really important these days in displays is colors, contrast and brightness. Coming from your galaxy S20+ all of those aspects should be improved when switching to the S23+
      Also, there are actually benefits from "downgrading" from QHD to FHD on a phone. One being battery life. 1440p eats through your battery compared to 1080p, while there is very little visual difference. I'd argue 1080p is the way to go for phone screens, as very few people will see the difference and it just takes away battery life.

And I surely don't regret the lack of SD card slots on these top-end phones. I mean c'mon they are slow as heck. It's like asking a flagship notebook to have a built in zip drive. I couldn't justify getting the S23 Ultra even though it was a measly $8 more per month than the S23+. Why? Because I can't confidently carry a $1,200 phone with a curved glass display around without insurance. And I am not buying anymore insurance than my Otterbox Defender Pro provides.
