Galaxy S23 Ultra

This is the worst phone on earth if you don't want to be annoyed constantly and pestered by every imaginable samsugn useless application it will force on you. Don't want to be notified? Too bad. Can't stop them. The 'hiding' of forced notifications is one of the sneakiest things I've seen to date. You can't stop a stupid sidebar that's useful for absolutely no one. If my company didn't pay for this , I would have been very very very angry to pay money for it. The buttons are in odd places. The key card is terrible, but I see that has some to do with the jumpy screen. God how I despise this phone.

As a technophobe, I was a bit apprehensive about using the phone. The most worrying for me is trying to figure out how to transfer all my files from my old, non-samsung phone into my new Samsung. I was amazed that my Samsung phone immediately took the initiative to tell me to start transferring my files from the old phone to my Samsung. Using the Samsung phone was surprisingly easy and user-friendly most especially went it upgraded. The camera was amazing and that's just an understatement. I had fun exploring the wonderful features of my phone's camera. I am now the envy of my friends. Hehehehe

Some may say, 'not much has changed!'. But when you get to use the S23 Ultra day to day (without needing a charge for 3 of those days), you know Samsung have made some impressive changes. It's the same phone you loved in 2022, 21 and before, but with so much more. And if you love your photos, say no more. The Ultra produces some of the most impressive pictures (under every condition) that rival high end digital SLRs. It's the phone for life today! In addition, the use of recycled parts means you are doing a little bit for the planet. It's pricey, but aren't they all at this level.

Coming to a s23 ultra from a z flip 3 has been such an eye opener for me. In terms of battery life, camera quality and everything in between has been like reaching the tip of a mountain. It's phenomenal. I'm a heavy user, and sometimes have over 5 hours screen on time, and to be going to bed with over 40% battery has been the best thing about this phone. The camera is the best I've ever had, and the S-pen is something I never realised I needed in my life! Unfortunately, I'll never settle for anything other than an Ultra ever again, as anything else just won't live up to my new expectations.

I have been asked to write a review of my 1 month old phone which is actually 22 months old. My phone was fantastic until the new update destroyed my battery life, make icons unreadable (battery bubble), implemented features to try and turn my Samsung into that of your biggest rival. The update was forcibly rolled out, I selected no to receiving the update after seeing hundreds of negative reviews about it and I also have automatic updates disabled. Samsung still forced the update onto my device and ruined it. I have 2 months left on my contract and I will never be a Samsung user again.

I have always had Samsung from the very 1st one to come out. My last phone was the note 10+ after having it from relase for 3 years will worked great and wondered if there much difference between the two. How wrong I was the difference is night and day. I absolutely love the s23ultra. I'm on it all day warch youtube, photos edit videos etc and I have never ran out of battery yet when I plud it in at night around 1am still have 10% never seen anything like it. It is blazingly fast, I'm a professional photographer and videographer and they both work spectacular. I have even converted an apple user who has never had Samsung before and he can't believe the difference. Can't recommend highly enough

Phone is great, great photos, great features, very reliable...but my biggest problem is charging. I had the same problem with Galaxy S23. I hoped Ultra S23 would be better with charging but I'm facing the same problem. Usb port is not good. There's no "click" sound when I put cable in. Contact is lost. Now I have to charge it with wireless charger and it's extremely slow. I'm very disappointed with that. My spuse has Galaxy A54 and she's laughing at me when sees that I'm not able to charge my phone with normal charger but struggling with wireless one. I think this is my last Samsung.

I love the Samsung 23 ultra first the pictures are brilliant I got mine just before I went on Holiday to Antigua and the picture quality is perfect the videos are great my camera became the one of choice for pictures among my friends even those with latest I phones battery life brilliant all day out and about phone calls I still had a lot of battery life left. I was complemented on pics to people. I sent them too video quality amazing went on a helicopter ride and they came out amazing I have alwsys been a note girl this is the best phone I have ever had worth the money and so many features makes life so easy to use and I am not a technical phone person and I really getting on well with this p phone.

Excellent features and well designed. Previously owned Samsung Note 20 and was unsure if I would notice any improvements. I was pleasantly suprised. Amazing processor speeds and noticeably faster. Like the design difference as this model has been less sloped and returned to slightly more hardened and squared edges...feels better to hold. Also has Superb camera improvements although doesn't feel noticeable until you really give it the time to thoroughly test. Finally much improved and definitely appreciated the speakers have been really improved and sound quality is excellent.

Amazing camera quality. Nice vibrant screen colour. Works fast. Great for gameplay. Love the curve screen. Not too heavy. Feels nice in the hand. You can one handed text, whether you're left or right handed, because you can adjust the keyboard to move it one side of the screen or the other. It has helpful accessibility features. Good range of ring and text tones. You can even use your Spotify/Amazon music playlists. Loving the stylus. It's very responsive and does as it should. The lavender colour is stunning. It's a lovely creamy lavender and in certain lights I can see a slight hint of pink. So easy to use and get used to. Plenty of storage. Holds loadsa pics/vids/ apps. I 100% highly recommend this phone.

I upgraded from the S21 Ultra, which in my opinion, had a better design. Because Samsung has made the S22 and S23 Ultra's essentially Note phones, they have uncomfortable square corners. Whereas the S21 Ultra had rounded corners and was more comfortable to hold and fit in a pocket. I also think the S Pen is such a niche item, it is wasted as I won't ever be using it. Samsung should have just kept the Note line separate. It also didn't come with a factory installed screen protector, whereas the S21 Ultra did. I would have preferred to have had one installed, like many Chinese brand phones do. However, other than the design, the phone is great. Big, bright fast screen, good camera, slick UI and good connectivity.

As you would expect for the money, it's a solid package of incremental updates that combine to give a very useable and practical experience in a phone. SAMSUNG Screens remain amazing and a nippier processor adds to the multimedia experience. S PEN interaction through out the wealth of apps remains excellent with some very useful niche features and apps making for a great experience. Overall its not a blow you away upgrade over last years, but rather a subtle and in some areas a substantial upgrade. All in all its a good solid phone, that delivers in pretty much all areas.

Upgraded from S22 Ultra (Exynos) to S23 Ultra (Snapdragon) and the difference is night and day. Finally Samsung decided to give Snapdragon globally. No more stutters and small lags here and there, absolutely butter smooth everywhere. Amazing camera. Monster battery life. I was frustrated to see Samsung do away with their ribbon/strap case from the S22 Ultra and replace it with a different strap case that uses elastic and is not placed in the center of the device. Big step backwards compared to the ribbon strap of last year. Apart from that, device is highly recommended.

This is the best Samsung I have owned and I've had them all from galaxy s4 onwards. I would add however that a memory card slot would have made the s23 ultra a little better, that said it's operational speed is excellent and the 5g connection is very fast. The screen is not only sharp clear and crisp but very customisable, some thing's that I don't like are down to the android system but the Samsung OS is very good. Batter life is very good which surprises me because of the s23's performance. The camera is exceptional great quality and a magnificent zoom although I don't like how you zoom much. I would never own a phone that wasn 't a Samsung I've used several including apple but they all fall short of my S23 Ultra.

Love the new s23 ultra. I have had a note since they were first introduced. Love them. The samsung flip case is awesome. Only issue is to get a screen protector that works with the fingerprint sensor. It is an issue. The best phone I ever had was my Note9. My wife now has it. Still in perfect condition and take perfect photos every time. I don't know what is is with the note 8 but it has never wavered. Cracking fingerprint sensor too. Also no case has ever been a match for the Samsung smart flipcase with the colour LED. Still in perfect condition. Really robust.

I had a different review written 2 days ago but now I've got updates. The NFC stops working all the time, I meed it to use googlw wallet and it constantly can't read the sensor, to the point I have to restart the phone after trying to tap 4-5 times and getting all kinds of errors like "phone moved too quickly" - when it didn't. Bluetooth earphones show connected but sound will still come out through the phone, no amount of troubleshooting fixes it unless I restart the phone again. For such a "super-performant" and expensive phone, this is a very poor experience.

Decent phone but nothing special for the price you pay. My 3 year old oppo find X has more better function, usability and ui. And it also still charges in 29 mins with the supervooc charger supplied. Phone is overrated, my wife's iPhone 14 Pro and my daughters iPhone 13 Pro takes overall better contrasty pictures. The only reason I got sucked into buying it was because of the 10x optical zoom which is fun. A bit disappointed on the shutter speed as my cats photo's always come out blurred, the iphone cameras are great for pets. I tried the shutter speed mod by downloading cam apps but they take a hit on pic quality. Like I said OK phone but nothing special compared to the competition, certainly not for the high asking price.

Didn't think this would be much of an upgrade on my S21 Ultra, I normally get a new phone every 3 years but jumped in early as I'm going on holiday and was intrigued by the night shots I had seen being taken with the new camera. But what really surprised me was the jump in speed..... Every thing is just so much faster. Opening apps is instant, no delay.... Photos are click and done, no shutter lag..... Having a pen built in like the note means I can get a sleeker case rather than the large one I had with the pen holder and now I have a magsafe case.

I am in the Samsung ecosystem. Coming from the S21 ultra it is a massive upgrade. I missed the built in s pen as ive always been a note fan. I love that theres a Snapdragon chip inside this time and it shows with blistering speeds and amazing battery life. I can go 1.5 days till next charge. Only negative is the phone is expensive and i missed out on pre order deal because i didn't understand it properly otherwise could of got the phone a little bit cheaper. It is also big and heavy too. Otherwise its a beast phone and you won't regret buying it.

Everything has been great about my phone, so far, but the most amazing thing has been how it survived being run over by cars and van! A few days ago, my S23 blew off the roof of the car, (I had forgotten about it). I saw it hit the road surface, bounce and was promptly run over by a van and several cars before I could get to it. The screen was crushed and so was I, I had not insured it! Amazingly, once the screen was replaced with a genuine S23 screen, it works perfectly! Unbelievable! I thought the adverts are just gimmicks! Over the moon!

The S23 Ultra is truly a huge device. This is purely the reason I am giving it a 4/5 star. I understand that smartphones are compact these days, however, the form factor is waaaay too big to be comfortable. The internals are amazing alongside the camera set up. Huge battery, super fast chipset, more than enough storage and RAM, plus an S-pen. The cameras are phenomenal and I've always loved Samsung's aesthetic when it comes to photography. The really crisp and colourful images beat all the other phones out there by far. (100% personal opnion)

I've Been Loving using the Samsung Galaxy ultra I had the Samsung S21 before so this has been a huge upgrade I use my camera quite a lot for social media and it has been a godsend in regards to to making my photography shots seems so much better I'm also absolutely amazed with how good the quality is when I've been taking shots of the Moon at night-time as well well it's not around great phone I'm getting used to the size as it's slightly bigger than my last one I highly recommend this for anyone who who is thinking I'm making the switch over

I've had only Galaxy phones since 2015 but I really cannot stand my S23. I've worked in the heavy equipment industry for longer than I've own Samsung products and have never had an issue until now. My S23 has a cracked screen for 6th time now just being in my pocket. My S8 and S10 never broke. My S10 even fell out of my pocket when I was riding my motorcycle and all it had was a few scuffs. The quality of these phones has seriously gone down. Five otterboxes couldn't stop this phone from breaking. I'd recommend just getting a flip phone.

Got the new S23 Ultra in the exclusive colour Graphite. Coming from the S22 Ultra I wasn't expecting much of an upgrade, however I was wrong. The flatter display on the S23 Ultra is much better and easier to use (In my opinion) plus it feels like you are getting more screen for your money. Performance wise, there is little difference between the previous model and the new. The 120hz refresh rate on the S23 Ultra does however feel smoother. If anyone is looking for a new device, the S23 Ultra definitely does not disappoint.

This device is truly something else I upgraded from the S22 ultra but this was nowhere near what I was expecting I was expecting minor upgrades in expecting minor upgrades in a lot of categories however I was shocked by the camera I was shocked by the battery life and overall this is an upgrade that I cannot recommend enough from someone who bought the news for last year this still feels like a major step up from what they released last year and I cannot recommend this enough to anyone who is looking or debating on the S23 ultra

I still take it as a nee device with very good high tech photo images; very impressive. Very good storage space, has quick charging mechanism and battery lasts longer. However, I hate the fact that in its new state the device keeps freezing for no apparent reason Keeps disabling vital apps all the time. I try to switch off and on but in vain and despite system updates I have decided to take action and pop in the nearest store to get another phone provider as I'm fed up with this frustration all the time Thanks Customer

Really impressed, the speed of the processor and os is extremely snappy, the display is gorgeous and smooth + responsive, the battery is fine/okay it could do with being 10-30% better but I am a heavy user, the cameras are great 👍, I wish the display wasn't rounded but obviously this is not the case on the 24 ultra, the spen is brilliant, the charging is pretty good, much better than what I've upgraded from, however I wish 45w charging was sustained for longer to get a real fast charge or maybe even higher ie 75w ~ charging

Ok I'm no mobile phone expert but I have worked within the IT field and also as a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer so I'm able to understand how to setup my phones to get the most out of them and I'm an android lover and also always stick with Samsung my last phone was a Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G, and no real complaints but after a year or so I had to send it back to get a replacement screen put on as visible damage appeared on the inner fold crease and whilst samsung repaired for free after that I knew in another year or so back to square one, so I purchased the S23 ULTRA and all I can say is WOW BUILD QUALITY = Check Screen = Check Sound = Check Battery = Check Camera = Check Last phone I liked this much was my Note 9, in short GET AN S23 ULTRA NOW

This phone is absolutely amazing, everything on this phone exceeded my expectations. From how bright and clear the screen is, to how good the touch reaction is, to the loud sound that comes out of the phone. The photos are always crisp and the videos I take actually make my surrounding look so much better and brighter. Only thing that I can think that is a con on this phone is its very big and weight a little bit than a normal phone does, but it just looks so much better. Overall the phones performance and features are WOW!

I'm loving the new features and camera mostly. There's one snag though, whenever I use the NFC with my google wallet on the public transport readers, it keeps erroring that the phone moved too slow, I have to tap at least 3-4 times before it eventually works. I do have a clear phone case for protection but that shouldn't block the NFC signal. I was also using the pen for various apps and typing and it was not actioning a tap on the screen. I stopped using it for a few days and when I tried it later on, it worked again.

Upgrading from s21 .. so far so good, low light photos wow yes much better, let's be honest for most of us samsung have always had a good screen.. so not noticing much difference. Having more memory physical and ram always welcome .. fist time s pen user here .. I find it quicker to use to add notes and calendar notes than typing. Only issue was the Android Auto keeps dropping ( not a phone issue more software ). Bottom line it's a good phone, if a little over priced but then what isn't in this day an age.

Having been a samsung user for about 5 years now we've finally we have the phone we've always wanted the snapdragon chip is amazing the battery life is brilliant the camera has now been updated to take on the lines of apple and Google with its 2x portrait mode videos are brilliant with a proper 8k mode although I'm sure not many people will be using it, the integration of expert raw mode built into the camera app is another very well thought out function in all this is an ultra phone worthies of the ultra title

The Samsung s23 ultra phone is a fantastic phone for me,huge improvement on my old phone.My old phone was a very nice phone too,I still have the old one as a spare,backup.Quality pictures taken by the cameras,playing games,watching movies,even talking to friend by video,wow.When I saw a work colleague with the Samsung s23 ultra I new straight away it was the phone I wanted next.Yes it's bid,yes its heavy but I love that it is and the things the phone can do,well done Samsung for a fantastic phone,product.

Works the same. Runs the same. Battery is mediocre. It's a good phone. But I wouldn't pay the price for it. Not worth it. The camera isn't that much better honestly. You can zoom a tad more. But unless you have superb lighting. The quality will be that of a Nokia brick. Stick with s22 ultra personally. Cheaper for the same phone. Also. The s23 ultra does not fit into s22 ultra phone cases. The layout of the phone is slightly different including the camera arrangements. Ensure you turn off RAM PLUS in your settings. It does nothing but drain your battery. Also. Change your resolution settings. 4k screen is awesome for when your watching avatar on your phone. Since that was made for 4k. But other than that. Turn it to the lowest resolution. It saves power and runs your phone smoother.

Samsung galaxy s23 ultra is truly excellent smartphone currently available to buy. It has one of the best camera setup, 2 days battery life, finally it's software experience is one of the best, it's fast, smooth and so fluid for me it's better experience than other android software with so much customisation options and there is special extra which is S-Pen, u you can use it for taking notes, drawings, signing documents and remote control for camera. Still photo quality is excellent across the board day or low light, improved video stabilisation and quality. Still I feel camera experience can be better as there is some shutter lags and AI can be better tuned for better camera optimization. Overall I highly recommend everyone who has not upgraded their phones for more than 2 years.

After jumping from my S9+ to the S23 ultra I was hoping for better performance on the Internet part. The phone for me is only a 7/10 because it is so tedious to connect to ny WiFi and my 4/5G connection is hit and miss. The features of the phone are great, but when I end up realising that my S9+ performed quicker on all actions related to internet, it does hurt a lot to be paying so much for such a poor performance. I hope this issue would be resolved quicker so that I can really enjoy my phone.

Loving this compared to my S10! I was concerned about its comparative size, but needn't have been. The screen resolution is far superior, early days yet but battery life appears much improved. The S Pen has already enhanced my use of my phone aka little computer. The sound quality has surprised me, especially through the sound buds I bought with it. Photo quality all the hype indicated! My only small niggle is with small hands the side buttons are tricky to navigate together, but I'm learning fast.

So i got the chance to upgrade my phone from the s21 ultra to the s23 ultra recently. At first i was holding off because i wanted to wait for the next fold phones but after careful consideration i decided that now is a good time. Using the s pen again is a welcome feature since i used to use it on the Note series of phones and is a useful tool for photos and note taking. I also love using Samsung Dex for some of my more productive tasks. This phone is a keeper for a few years i am certian of that.

In a chase after better camera's, ability to play games and a variety of other technical upgrades, samsung had started to forget about battery life. The S23 Ultra, to me, is a complete refresh on the concept of what a premium phone should be. Naturally, the camera, chipset, memory, software etc are all top quality. However, their interactions with each other are what brings this phone together. Being able to use the camera's true quality in a range of apps, the gaming ability and productivity ability really showcase the 'Ultra' title. But the refinements go down to, call quality, speaker quality, browsing ability, cross compatability etc. This truely is a phone that can do everything well. Samsung may not have changed the surface, but the insides are genuinely what count here.

The cameras are amazing on this phone, so many options to take whatever style photo you want and of anything. The battery lasts all day easily, with 30% left, even with the feature that reduces max charge to 85% to preserve the battery. The pen just makes the experience of editing and note taking way better. Not to mention how good looking the phone is and how well it sits in your hand with the sharp edges. Samsung have nailed the ultra this year, glad they used the snapdragon processor this year.

Perfect powerhouse of reliable office and play. Powerhouse for Videography Powerhouse for photography Powerhouse for play Powerhouse for device combinations and fluidity Powerhouse for vital office/work fluidity and efficiency Powerhouse with excellent battery life/the best battery out there for the power house it is. Powerhouse with 12GB ram everything is seamless and instant with no multitasking issue or lag. Pwerhouse for 1TB of memory efficient and fluid and efficient. Interface/operating system is perfect and time saving with limitless customisation to suit individual user. Style is perect and balanced with positioning of buttons and spacing and speakers are all in the right place and customisable side buttons use. A powerhouse weapon of fun, eddicency and productivity.

This year, Samsung got the recipe of a flagship phone right on the money. A Snapdragon chipset combined with the Samsung Galaxy integration has not only produced a powerful performance of the year 2023, but also so efficient that you can enjoy the phone experience with great battery life! Camera is great as usual and the S-Pen makes it unique flagship that no other can offer. I hope the software update will only makes the experience better without any compromise as this UI has gone a long way.

Gorgeous looks, style and design, full of advanced features, smooth and fast performance. Ultra high quality, bright and clear Display. I can perform all my office work through this phone easily and don't need to use my laptop. Keeps quick and easy access to documents with the help of organised file manager. Top of the line camera. This is Practical and fun phone. I have weak eye sight and this phone help me to increase font size and screen zoom. This is wise choice and perfect phone for me.

The phone is very impressive. The battery lasts me the entire day with about ~5 hours of screen on time and Bluetooth on for half the day. Performance wise there are absolutely no complaints, I've not had any issues with applications or surfing the Internet. The camera is a noticeable step up from my previous phone (Samsung Galaxy S20+). They are clear and the colours are vivid. The zoom features are surprisingly useful. Overall the phone is as good as it gets and I can definitely recommend

..at last, samsung went for something obvious (not so obvious until s23 lineup) and bet on snapdragon - ooh boy it was a good one, i can embrace of 2 day battery phone and its just a beginning, for starters the look - which having in mind the s-pen makes it timeless, although myntake on it through the number of devices I have purchased and used (testing) secondly the updates, sammy does neck in neck with the developer of android themselves - google, no more comments njust brilliant!

Absolutely love it. I've never had Samsung before, always opting to go for Apple products, however a good deal came up and I thought I would give it a try and I'll never look back. The screen quality, camera and picture quality and everything about it just feels far superior to my previous provider. I'm over the moon with how good it is. I love the fact that I can completely customise the widgets, the screen layout, and menus with different colours or themes or whatever I like.

I bought it samsung galaxy s23 ultra and not happy with it. Constant problems with a mobile network reception. In my area is excellent reception of EE, 3 etc But I am lucky if get one bar of 5g... Mostly got it 4g.So samsung got a quite a lot issues. And the funny is when remove EE sim and put it to Oppo find X5 pro got a full bar of 5g signal. At the moment I am in Poland and same situation with Samsung phone... Simply using my Oppo phone. Very disappointed with Samsung crap.

Phone' speed is OK, I was switching from Apple after about 9 years since I last used samsung phones. It's almost comparable to iPhone 14 Pro max but samsung better in night pictures by all means. I'm just too disappointed by its lack of holding battery. First 3 days battery was so bad, then for a week it kinda got better may be I was too busy at work I barely used it. The battery is so bad I have to charge twice a day 😫. You can't survive with this when on holidays abroad.

Well from moving from the flip 3 and looking to go back to a normal phone I have to say I made the right choice so far. I am def enjoying the speed and the look of the phone I do have problems trying to get a screen protector and case to be ok together as you can’t use a glass screen protector with a case as well it don’t work. The phones it’s self if def worth a buy and camera has to be the best on any phone out there. Not sure what else to say apart from impressed.

I replaced my Galaxy Note 9 which was still going strong with the limited edition grey with 1Tb memory. I take lots of pictures and videos and wanted an upgrade which would be worth it. I am not disappointed and am very happy with all the extra useful features. I am also happy that these new features are not gimmics, but are actually very useful. I have recommended it to my daughter, who also got the same 1Tb version, but in green. We are both very happy so far.

I love the whole Samsung experience, the bright clear screen, and the quick response. Also the UI is quick and never crashes. Regular updates. I don't think the upgrade from s21 ultra, to S23 Ultra was such a big move. BETTER camera and new processor. But when I look at my s23, I just see the same screen as my S21. I also feel the update to the phone does not justify the cost. Think this will be my Last S line phone unless there is a major improvement or new skills.

Was a bit worried about upgrading my phone as its always a bit later when you realise that one of the apps you had doesn't actually work anymore... but found the change over process very easy with some apps just requiring some security checks. The improved features on this phone are well worth the change as well. All in all a very good decision to go out and buy a refurbished phone as I'm getting a very sophisticated device for a fraction of the original price.

I have never encountered a phone with so many glitches along the way. Yes there is dedicated help from experts but really why do I have to reach out to experts for help. Examples warning pop ups when charging, clear caches. Calender display changing for no reason, clear cache. Lost photos, expert advice couldn't solve, thank goodness for Google photo back up I had set up yrs earlier. When it works well it is great especially photos when it doesn't it is a pain.

The phone itself is very good however, I've been having a lot of problems with GPS signal, when using map apps it loses signal a lot, my wife also has this phone who doesn't seem to have these issues so may be the handset itself. The only other aspect that really lets this handset down is the fact you cannot add cards to a wallet like you can on the Pixel - I understand that you can use Curve but this isn't anywhere near as effective or simple as the pixel wallet.

Buy an Iphone! I have a new Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, coming from an Iphone 7 and I am very disappointed! The Iphones are running much better, much smoother and much faster. The only thing that is better with the S23 is the camera zoom. Having issues from buttons not working, poor facial recognition, not adding appointments to calendar automatically and just sending a simple SMS! User faults maybe, but not a very intuitive or easy to use telephone. Plane crap!

After being a Samsung customer for a long time I was beginning to get annoyed with Samsung using inferior Exynos chipsets in the UK and using Snapdragon elsewhere but with the S23 series they finally listened and used the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset which is powerful yet power efficient also. This phone has been faultless, performance and battery life is excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending the S23 Ultra to anyone looking for a great device.

Samsung Galaxy s23 Ultra has been the best phone that something has actually made the battery life is really really good so much better than the space Samsung S22 the cameras are much better than the the Samsung S22 the experiments that have had with the something Galaxy s23 has been the best experience I've had ever Samsung so if you really want a very good phone battery life performance best camera best video I would recommend the Samsung Galaxy c23 Ultra

Hi its still early days with ultra, but so far it's been very good, I like alot of the new things you can do and how helpful the phone can be software wise, making easier to save settings and to find things. I'm finding the camera very good although I've only used the default 12mega pixel lens at the moment. The s pen is very use ful, especially if you have older bigger fingers like I do. Ask me again in 6 months time for more of a review. Regards Andy V

From the display, power, battery life, cameras, s-pen, UX, this has to be the most well rounded phone of the year once again. Something that Samsung seem to always do every year. But this time they have improved majorly on power and Battery life which is always great to see. Considering I spend on average 2 - 3 hours a day watching videos then a few more filming and taking pictures then notes because of my work and somehow still finishing the day with around 20% battery with about 7.5 -8 hours of screen on times its a huge improvement. Only down side for me is the Design because I have always thought the s23 and s23 + look and feel better to hold especially with the rounded corners but some prefer the more boxy design but not for me especially after using the S21 Ultra which I still think is the best looking Galaxy S phone of all time.

I've been a Samsung user for over 7 years, and this is my first experience with an Ultra - how has it taken me this long!? The speed of the CPU makes using the phone feel seamless. The size of the screen and resolution makes everything clear, legible, and beautiful to look at. The inbuilt memory means I can take the highest quality videos/photos without fear of running out of space. And finally, the camera - exquisite. I am in love with this phone.

I've had my Note 10 plus for a number of years and also precious Samsung phones. I did the trade in with my phone and also an Active 2 smart watch and go an amazing trade in value. The phone is just mind blowing. Besides the Dex that literally transformed the phone into a pc, the camera which is top notch and a 2 day's battery, what else to say??... it's an absolute beast of a phone. Best value for money you could get on the market right now.

Brilliant ! Amazing camera ! The phone is definitely worth the money ! I did have issues at first with the battery life but it has settled and now lasts for a few days before charging however obviously the more you use it the more the battery drains and I'm always on my phone I genuinely cannot fault it at all I've added a couple of pics of the moon I've taken with this phone so you can see for yourself also the star map is a cool feature

Love it it's a loud phone so now I can hear it wen it goes off the camera at night is absolutely incredible pixels are amazing absolutely glad I pick the ultra bigger screen is good can see it better not having to squint lol all right a great phone only issue is notifications are abit weird it gives u the same notification over and over even after u read em and sometimes didn't get messages or calls thru but tht cud be to do with network

I had s21 ultra and decided to trade in for S23 ultra and I am glad I did the camera is a big improvement , the screen is better, quick and responsive, apart from that it is a similar experience, I have found a few snags which hopefully will be sorted out with software updates, some of my apps crash regularly, fingerprint scanner still a bit hit and miss but that may be down to having a screen protector but let's face it if you pay this much for a phone you are going to use a screen protector, I had same issue with s21 ,one thing to note is it is a very smooth glass back so I needed a case to make it easy to hold without slipping but I do have small hands, overall I am happy with the upgrade.The pictures were taken using the camera settings and hand-held no tripod so the moon photo was not as sharp as it could have been if using a tripod.

So last year I upgraded from Note 8 to s22 Ultra (so my history with phones is that i dont always upgrade), but if im honest I wasn't that impressed with my s22 Ultra i felt it wasnt that much different to my old Note 8. But the s23 Ultra is 100% worth the upgrade in terms performance, speed, camera and battery life. I will likely stick to this phone i feel much happier with this upgrade and its likely I'll stick to it for a few years.

I love the pen that just Inserts into the phone, its so easy to just start drawing, scroll etc. The best thing about it is that it alerts me when I take the pen out and walk away without it, making it harder to lose as it is a small item but immaculate quality. The camera can zoom up to 100x and amazing camera quality. The screen is large with rounded edges and gives the best video quality I have ever seen on any phone I have owned.

Not very impressed. On paper it's better that last Note but everything just got moved around giving the impression of something new without the substance. Thank goodness for built in obsolescence otherwise we would have been fine with the old model. How about easily replaceable lens covers? After sales support is a complete nightmare. And highly insecure. Im receiving phishing emails and whatsapp messages from all over the world

The S23 Ultra ticks all the boxes that I would want to see as a former Note user. The phone is noticablely fast with battery life that has never ran out in a day yet, despite heavy use. What I am especially impressed with was the camera. Watching the AI quickly process images taken at night is really cool. With the final images looking so sharp and clear conpared to previous cameras on other handsets that ive had. I am impressed!
