Color: Phantom Black Size: 256GB Style: Galaxy S23 Ultra Pattern Name: Phone Only
I will dislose upfront that I am likely an android fanboy, whose never had an iphone. However, I did seriously consider switching right before getting this S23 Ultra. Heres why I ultimattely went with Samsung this time. I have stuck with android, and used many over the years. Droid Razr, Nexus6P, Pixel2, Xperia I 3. I am familiar with and like the useability of android. Just how it is. MAIN USE: It was important to me I get a phone that can meet my goals of retaining media. I was able to move all my music files and photos collections rather easily to the S23. About 2400 songs, and favorite pics and videos from all my phones. It would have likely been a nightmare if I switched to iphone. Something about needing itunes or whatever, on a PC. No thanks. And i use a 3rd party music app and bam, phone is my main music collection. In my research, and knowing full well, Samsung is the android leader that Pixel wants to be. I have no illwill toward them, just acknowledging Google desperately trying to catch up. Samsung has the specs, the hardware, and top camera above all. They have the brand too stand behind as well. CAMERA: I love how great the camera works. It really shines when outdoors is good lighting. Videos come out crystal clear. I know some of my iphone friends may have taken a doubletake at the quality when seeing for themseelves. Has slowmo, superslow mo, wide angle, zoom, you name it. SHots still come out great even zoomed. Not blurry like my previous phones with a zoom lens. BATTERY: S23 is fast charging when using the right cable and plugin charger, otherwise slow trickles if using a "slow" one. Battery seems to last me 2 days, but I do not use my phone 24/7 on super brightness. It would last longer if I didnt use it at all during work, but I tend to play music so of course. SCREEN: Its a nice big display alright. Not 100% sure, but i think bigger than newest big ihpone? Nice and bright and clear. Phone is fast, and works well. THE BAD: Here re my legit criticisms of this phone. NO headphone jack. I know its old tech, but having nice wired phones be relegated to pc use is meh. No SD card slot. As media focused as I am, I hate that sd card slots have been phased out. BRING THE SD CARD SLOT BACK. OVERALL: This S23 Is a great phone. Despite the industry ditching sd cards and headphone jacks. IMO, likely the best android brand today. Pixel would likely be the close 2nd place. This S23 is frequently on sale due to the next Galaxies coming out, and is ultimately still cheaper than comparable iphone equivalents. If you want top of the line, its this. ... show more

big step up from my lg23+
This phone is huge and weighs in a good bit more than my last phone. Battery life seems to be about the same as what I had. Lots to be said about this phone. Camera is pretty dang nice. There are some strange 'glitches' when it transfers between lenses. Even though this is Android and I have been using Android, there is a ton to learn to use the camera. Screen is very clean and nice. Finger print reader with a screen protector is kind of hit and miss. The detectors is behind the screen. Not sure how they work that magic but its kind of cool. Make sure you set your pin first. Reception. This seems to be pretty good on t mobile. I was able to just take my sim card from my old phone and insert it into this phone... no need to go to the store to transfer the account. Copied the data from my old phone using a usb cable in 10ish minutes. No problems there. All the critical apps seem to be working like before. Some needed to be re-setup. Had to reconnect to our WIFI networks. Very disappointed that you cannot use a micro-SD card. Especially when you see the price difference to get something like 1T of storage. Its a bit ridiculous to have a 200 M pixel camera and not allow for user supplied storage. In fact, its really really lame. The weight and size of the camera takes a bit to get used to. Its only like an inch longer and 1/3 inch wider, but wow what a difference that makes. The speaker(s) are really good. There is kind of a spatial sound on this phone. The phone is pretty fast for everything I have done, processor wise. The s-pen its really cool...i have been using it as a remote trigger for the phone. The phone surface is pretty slick (as in a little slippery) so I highly recommend a case. Magsafe is a cool feature. There is a magnetic attachment point over the wireless charging. With the right case, you can do several things with this, like attach a second battery with no wires, just by placing it behind the case. You can add a kick-stand, wallet, etc. Customization is pretty solid on the phone. Seems like you can customize pretty much anything. Blutooth pairing is pretty simple and have had no problems here. Overall, this is a good phone. Plan on taking a week or so to explore all the different features. ... show more

Beast of a phone.
I'd like to first note that the transaction was amazing, received in under 24 hrs after ordering, came in perfect condition. 5 star phone ▪︎Amazing cameras,100x zoom,8k30fps compatible, 200mp sensor! ▪︎Amazing display , 1440p 120fps(can go all the way down from 1hz to a max of 120hz, I must say the display is so beautiful especially when watching 4k UHD HDR videos! ▪︎S pen, I personally haven't used it too much but it can be very useful for artists, writing signatures, taking pictures along with many other tasks. ▪︎fast chip!! It uses the snapdragon 8 gen 2 which appears to work perfectly for demanding tasks such as hard-core gaming , multi tasking or even multi windows running simultaneously, I personally haven't experienced 0 lags or stutters. It also dramatically is better in terms of managing heat and maintaining battery life compared to the s22 ultra! ▪︎security is top tier !! It's secured by Samsung Knox, has a secured folder, fingerprint reader(in screen) and facial recognition (along with all the other standard security options) the fingerprint works perfectly no issues. ▪︎self diagnose, the phone can self diagnose and test to make sure all the services are working properly. ▪︎ it's a Samsung! With Samsung it offers so many features, including free on-demand and live TV with over 100 channels, it has loads of unique features and services, a few examples are Bixby which is both an assistant and a tool for automated tasks, you also get loads of automation with the device for various tasks to help make your device more convenient. The battery on this and heat management is top tier, it's actually on Apples battery type level and that says something, there's so much to unpack and I hope to be able to explore it all eventually. This phone is definitely not for the weak, it's specifically a high-end phone meant to be used to the fullest. Only con: it has a 10mp front facing camera. The s22 ultra camera was so good all around that I only used snapchats camera and never the actual stock camera, now that it's 10mp and not 40mp, it's noticeably different. I think this is a major down grade regardless if it's stock camera benefits from this. There's much more to mention but that's what came to mind, over all if you're looking for a premium phone and want a high-quality device , this phone definitely gets the job done by far with no issues, I'd highly advise a phone case as this phone is not cheap. Love it! ... show more

I got this as an upgrade from my S20 fe. I had my hesitations but after using it for a couple of weeks, I can say that without a doubt, this was a worthy upgrade! I got it while it was discounted and opted in for the monthly payment plan, which is going smoothly. The sound quality is far superior to that of my other phone but what I really like are how much more capable this phone is, from it's S Pen to the photo editing features, and the high capacity RAM, which allows me to use several apps at once without having them close on me after much inactivity or lag on me. It also has so many more features that can be tweaked in the settings and I love how you can change the sizing format of the homescreen to fit more apps there. There's so much that can be done and used that I guarantee you'll need to watch a couple of YouTube videos to see the full breadth of what this thing can do. And the camera is better than any phone camera I've used. The zoom is sick. You can tweak the settings in it to get the capture quality you like. The battery life is also far better and out performs the S20 fe. You can use the battery saver features to stretch its life after each charge. If there's a downside, I'd say that finding a screen protector that will work with it and allow you to use the fingerprint unlock function at the same time, will be tricky. It took me 4 purchases to find a decent screen protector that doesn't feel like thick plastic and doesn't pop right off because of the curved screen. Even once I found a functional one that felt good, it occasionally gives me issues with fingerprint unlock. In short, the pros far outweigh any cons. This phone for me is the best on the market as of this date. It doesn't have me missing my S20 fe one bit! ... show more

Decent phone, not as nice as note but works well, battery degrades a bit too fast.
I am not really a fan of them removing the note for just the s ultra series but this phone was not half bad. This phone is relatively light and pretty good in handling (minus the case). The screen is not too bad but the annoying part is that the auto brightness is reliant on the position of your eyes so it can sometimes make it SUPER dark even though I have it at max brightness which is annoying when you are outside. I am sure you are able to turn this off but still annoying if you cannot really see what you are doing. For the most part, the phone itself is made of pretty sturdy material so you do not have to worry about the phone getting bent and the back is not temper glass so it is not have to worry about it easily breaking if dropped on the back. I use a case so that is not really any issue. I am not sure how sturdy the new material is r if it is scratch proof/resistant. The screen is not too bad although it is still a bit of a curve at the edges which makes it annoying to put a screen protector on that actually works. Regardless of that, the touchscreen is pretty nice and sensitive. Again with a screen protector, I found the screen is less responsive due to the curve edges. The front camera for selfies is not bad but it being integrated into the actual screen makes it so that it can be blurred easily with finger print and such and just makes it more annoying you have to clean it to get it to give you a really clear picture without a glare. The camera does come with facial recognition and finger print reader but it is severely hinder by the screen protector if you put it on. The itself screen feels nice and you do not get any finger print residue when using the screen. The back camera is pretty nice with 200 megapixels max. You do get a good picture and video quality but it can get dirty easily and you have to wipe it down. It does extend out from the phone which leaves those edges that can attract dirty and such which is annoying to clean. Even with a case, it get stuck in those hard to reach places which is annoying. Regardless, the camera stabilizes the pictures so if you are a bit shaky you do not have to worry about blurry pictures. The one thing I hate about samsung phone camera software is that it always takes a picture upside down or sideways and I always have to re-adjust the picture. I cannot turn this feature off and it is quite agitating. The best advice is to just make sure the words are facing the right direction before you take the picture. This phone was updated fairly. The one thing is that older samsung watches are NOT able to be used with this phone anymore. I am not sure why they would just remove the ability to connect to watches that are STILL very good. It is quite a ton of e-waste they are creating so note that if you are getting this phone. Samsung does have bloatware but you can easily remove it. It does organize their apps into a single folder which can make it confusing when you are looking for it. I does have bixby which I turn off because it is a bit annoying to use. They did remove the usual bixby button they use to have and integrated it with another. Samsung may offer with their 12 gb of ram phone. You are NOT able to put a micro SD card into the phone. It utilizes a type c port to charge and does support fast charging but only provides you a USB cable and not the actual wall plug which seems pretty standard nowadays. The battery life on this product is okay at first but degrades a bit too quickly within the first few months. Even when I turn the fast charging off to preserve the battery life, it sometimes die pretty quick even when I put applications to sleep. Other times, it can last pretty much a full day on minimal usage. I would say if you game on this phone you will be need to have an external battery ready. This device is able to play some games actually which is nice. I was able to play some emulated games on this as well which it was able to handle without much issue. The phone does heat up when you are pressing the processor so just note that. The sound quality on this phone is decent for what you are getting. There is only one speakers and the sound is clear and does not crackle or anything like that many other phones. This device does not come with headphone jack nor is there an adapter provided. I have tried type c plug headphones and they work pretty well with the phone and it still works well with older samsung bluetooth headphones unlike their watches. This does have the usual security feature with pin, password and finger print reader . I would say the finger printer scanner is not bad but if you are using a screen protector, you will not be able to get a a good reading. The finger print reader has a quick response time then many other phones. Overall I think this phone is heading in the right direction in terms of quality but I do think they should have kept the note series. This still falls short of the note performance in my opinion. The stylus is nice and integrated and I do use it from time to time but it easily pops out if you happen to bang your phone which is annoying because it can fall out and you lose it. I hate that they are essentially creating more ewaste by removing the ability to connect with samsung watches that are older but still functions well. The curve screen does still make it hard to put a working screen protector on this.. The sound quality is not bad. The phone is well built to remove certain aspects but I am not a fan of the camera being shrunk down as it makes it really had to clean between the crevice. The camera is nice as well but if you are trying to take 4k videos but the picture taking and the "auto" rotation is really annoying. I cannot turn it off and it just makes it an extra step where I have to update the photo. The battery that samsung uses as well is just very erratic. It degrades way too fast within the first year. ... show more

Great upgrade for me!
Color: Lavender Size: 512GB Style: Galaxy S23 Ultra Pattern Name: Phone Only
This was an amazing purchase for me. But I do have to preface this review by saying that I am updating from an LG G4 that I got for free from Verizon in 2016, so this is a complete upgrade for me from a practically useless phone versus people moving from a more recent model. This phone is HUGE. I am somewhat regretting not paying closer attention to the dimensions and opting for one of the lesser s23 models, but I know I’ll get used to it after a month or so. New phones are always an adjustment. I was able to set up my phone through Verizon but was unable to do it with the eSIM and had to head to a store to get a physical sim. So be aware if you plan on taking advantage of the eSIM. It might not be as easy as they make it seem. I do NOT use facial recognition or fingerprint scan so I can’t speak to those. The display is beautiful and covers the entire surface of the phone vs. others that have black bands on top and bottom. I’m not a huge app user so I have minimal screen time but the last time I charged my phone was 72 hours ago and I am still at 54% so the battery life is wildly impressive to me so far. Was kind of annoyed that the phone only comes with a cord and no wall outlet, especially since both ends of the cord is USBC so your old usb to wall adapter may not be enough. I expected this though and ordered a Samsung OEM charger. It cost me 40$ but after buying a thousand dollar phone that seemed like spare change so I happily shelled out the money. Beware of screen protectors!! I spent 60$ on three different kinds of screen protectors before I found one that fit and actually stayed attached. The curved glass screen makes this a difficult fit but I’d rather not use it without one. Make sure you are careful about what you buy and really read reviews, especially the bad ones. Don’t be fooled by brands that offer incentive for good reviews to hide the negative ones. The amount of cameras seems a bit excessive but I look forward to trying them. The zoom, I can tell, is already incredible and I can’t wait for a clear night to get some good shots. Overall I’m VERY happy with this switch. I did buy the phone during a promotion and got higher memory at a lower price with an additional 100$ off so I did pay 300 less than manufacturer’s price. ... show more

Great flagship phone
One of the reasons I purchased this was for the 200mp camera. Although zooming in ultra close on a picture still has some jpeg compression artifacts, the overall image quality is great. It also has a raw mode which allows storage of picture files without compression. The other visual features are also impressive, video mode allows you to shoot in a variety of resolutions and frame rates, including up to 8k. Sound quality is impressive for a panel phone, and when watching videos with stereo audio information, the sound is actually reproduced by two speakers, one at the bottom, and the earpiece speaker, which adds more engagement when watching music or other videos. The phone sound quality is great, and is significantly better than most of the other phones I have used in the past. I have had a few minor issues with the face recognition, although if I add more variations (with sunglasses, or hats, etc.) I will probably have fewer issues. The display embedded fingerprint scanner is taking a little getting used to, but maybe re-registering the finger prints may help reduce those issues. The fact that fi get print scanning is possible on the display screen (as opposed to a dedicated scanner on the ba k or side of the phone) is another interesting feature, and is raki g me a little bit to get used to. I have only had older, reconditioned or renewed phones in the past, and have always been at least two to three years behind the latest technology when purchasing a new phone. My last phone was at least 5 to 6 years since it was released. This is my first brand new, flagship phone, and although a bit pricey (for being an early adopter) I am pleased with the overall performance and features of the device. I am still learning about it, and finding new, neat little features that are not always a big selling point, but add to the 'wow' factor. I am very pleased with this device, and have protected it with an OtterBox defender case and a gel type screen protector, and in the month I have had it, I have enjoyed every aspect of it. ... show more
