Nearly Perfect
on May 1, 2023
Posted by: Love2review
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first premium Samsung phone, and I'm loving it hard. Still mastering all the different features, but I've already taken some immortal photos of my husband and my surroundings. That S-pen will be coming in handy in many ways, including as a remote control.
Would have liked to give it 4.5 or 4.75 stars, but only 4 or 5 are options. Giving it a 4 feels more dishonest than giving a 5, but there are a couple of flaws to note:
The screen is glorious, but late nights in bed with screen dimmed low, i DO notice that infamous flicker of Samsung OLED. What i have not (yet?) noticed is the color-banding that can occur watching movies on a screen with only 8-bit color, compared to the 10-bit color on other flagships, but i havent watched movies much on this phone yet. Also, i wish there was an intermediate mode between "natural" (sometimes washed out) and "vivid" (often cartoonish).
The 10x zoom becomes useless around dusk, but a forthcoming software update may change that.
The s23 Ultra phone speakers are good for a Samsung. However, they are shrill for a device of this tier. The built-in EQ can fix that, just at the cost of far lower volume.
That speaker issue touches on another flaw: design. Samsung often diminishes Function for Fashion, like the tiny slit for top speaker. Other makers can vent their speaker both forward and sideways at once.
Lastly, those corners are needlessly sharp and will destroy any pocket. A decent chamfer on would relieve that while keeping The Look.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this device mainly to stream it has great quality. I also use it to keep in touch with friend and family.
One thing I am never disappointed in is the quality of the pictures when I go to a concert. The quality of this phone overall is AMAZING!!

Surprisingly Faster than S22 Ultra
on May 1, 2023
Posted by: Woodsbuggy3
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Didn't expect much difference from my S22 Ultra that I lost. Significantly faster loading apps browsing web ect..
Battery life seems better too but my S22u was a year old and used pretty heavy.
Otherwise I don't have much else to comment on, it's pretty similar. Camera only seems slightly better.
It may be my imagination but cell and wifi signal strength seem improved as well

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my 23 Ultra for gaming, family trip pictures and as home computer. The battery lasts all day on one charge. The phone has great graphics & connection speeds. Everyone comments on how good the photos and videos are: when I show them. They even like the low light photos. It is also a nice size for someone who has large hands.

Best Galaxy Phone yet
on May 1, 2023
Posted by: S3toS23u
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a galaxy user since s3, notes and previous s21u, this is hands down best version yet. The biggest issue was battery life that finally gets addressed with the latest snapdragon. Love this phone, camera and screen. Won't regret! Only minor issue is the placement of the speaker that easily cover it with right hand but not huge issue.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my S23 Ultra for internet, social media and taking pictures and videos.
I upgraded from a Note20 Ultra and both the camer and screen are much improved. The fingerprint recognition works much better.

Love Galaxy Phone(s)!

Posted by: FamOfFour05
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Samsung phone is my life line. I use it to keep in touch with family and friends, keep track of my schedule, play games, keep notes. I have been a Samsung Galaxy user for more years then I can remember! I honestly don't think I would ever want a different brand of phone! When it's time to upgrade.. I go with the current new Galaxy option!
