Crisper images, but I miss the S23 Ultra’s vibrant
on December 29, 2025
Posted by: trpnfly
I recently upgraded from the S23 Ultra to the S25 Ultra, and I find myself feeling a bit disappointed by the camera's color science. While I knew I was trading away some zoom power, I didn't realize I would also be losing the signature "pop" of the S23.
Even when viewing photos on my laptop to rule out screen differences, the S23 images remain much more vibrant. The S25 Ultra certainly produces crisper, more detailed shots, but the colors feel muted and flat by comparison. I’ve tried adjusting every filter and setting available, but I just can’t replicate that bright, lively look I loved. If you prefer natural tones, you'll love this camera, but if you enjoy Samsung’s traditional vivid style, it's a bit of a letdown.

Forced to upgrade from my Note 9 bc of apps, but I'm not happy with losing a headphone jack, a bluetooth s pen, a fingerprint reader that works on the first try, etc. I was a Samsung fan with the Note series, but I won't be raving about the Galaxy S Ultra.

I actually wasn't expecting a major upgrade from my 23 Ultra, but the 25 Ultra runs like a dream. The display looks so nice. The camera is even better. I'm very pleased with this phone.
Also, avoid the Galaxy 22 like the plague.
I would recommend this to a friend!
