Amazing battery life, durable, and fast

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I rely on phone and utilize a lot of appss, such as life 360 and family link, that are heavy on battery life. As a mom with school-aged children, it is important to me to have access to apps that can track my children in real-time. On other devices, I frequently had to pause these apps as my phone would not make it through a 12-hour shift. The Samsung Galaxy s23 ultra not only has made it through the work-day, but easily lasts for 18 hours with heavy usage. Additional features that I've found useful have been the snappy processor, which makes multitasking and switching between apps practically seamless, the s-pen for quick notes, and compatibility with medical devices such as continuous blood glucose monitors, such as the libre 2/3 and dexcom g6, as well as insulin pumps, such as the omnipod 5.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can do multi-task , it can make life more easier, i can operate fast, i can have plenty storage and more control of important things. And it easier to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the multiple windows that I can open in the same screen, the S Pen feel like a real pen and the features are insane. The camera is amazing, the super fast charging is A+.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the Galaxy S21 and I don't regret the upgrade. I typically buy the regular version of flagship phone because I have small hands, but I have never had a larger phone before. Despite the phone being larger, it isn't difficult to hold the phone in one hand.
The S21 was a great phone and the S23 Ultra is even better. I didn't think I needed to upgrade, but the S21 only has 128GB of space. Having 512GB of storage space has been GREAT. I've only used 150GB of space, but it's just nice to have. This was my main reason for upgrading other than the better overall specs of the phone.
The camera is high quality, but I think all flagship phones will have a high quality camera. Any time I take photos with the 10x zoom, I'm amazed with how clear the pictures come out. Never a bad photo taken other than I myself being a bad photographer.
The S23 Ultra is a very durable phone too. I can't tell you how many times I have dropped this phone and I still have no cracks. I don't have a screen protector and I only have a clear case. I might have a few small scratches on the screen, but they aren't noticable especially with how bright the screen is
Overall, I would highly recommend this phone and I will be sticking with this phone for a while.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the device... Very smooth operating with a great UI. my only issue is the front glass. All every phone company does is brag about how they have the newest and greatest gorilla glass and mine feel from a chair seat to the concrete and cracked.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the phone for work and personal use. The large screen is an amazing upgrade and the storage space is great. All my pictures, music and other files on my old micro SD card barely filled it up. The stunning red glass panel caught my eye since the phone released!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the 512gb version. It takes the best photos. People compliment them all the time and is way above the main competition. You can guess which one. The phone works smoothly.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After being away from Android for 8 years, I reluctantly returned to the Galaxy S23 Ultra and have been pleasantly surprised at how much fun I have had with this device.
My photos and videos have never looked better than they are now. With some of the clearest photos and stunning cinematic videos in some of the harshest conditions such as concerts, less than desired weather and so much more.
The battery life has been quite impressive, but in certain instances also frustrating as if it's even slightly above average usage, I can risk blowing through the battery within a 8hr one-time.
But again, with everything positive to say, there are still areas where I believe the device can benefit.
While update times have gotten better than in the past, I'm still waiting on OneUI6 and Android 14 like many in the US and Korea, which are without a doubt Samsungs BIGGEST markets.
I believe Samsung can also benefit from offering more options to customize OneUI with better integration into Google Services such as Photo backup within the onboard Gallery app.
Over all, this phone has been a pleasant welcome back into the Android world and I hope to see similar features like the amazing cameras bridged over to devices like the Galaxy Fold.
