- The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, S23 Ultra, and S22 Ultra may look very similar at first glance but there's a lot of differences between these three phones once you take a closer look.

I haven't heard anything that tells me it'd be worth it to upgrade from my S22 ultra, which I've had zero issues with. Some of us like curves ;)
Same here man
Honestly, the flat screen is the only reason I am switching, I have broke 2 screens the same way with 22U, its always on the curve its weakest point so easy to crack.
@@mr.reeftank1456 Same here, the curved screen is what I hate the most about the phone. I don't need an upgrade but I'm willing to do so so I can finally get rid of the annoyance of having a curved screen.
I love the curves, dropped my s22U plenty of times and still going strong My s10plus was a different story, People that break screens are just Clumsy as can be.
The flat display and the increase in battery performance it's a good enough reason for me to upgrade from s22 ultra to s24 ultra
As a big fan of curve display, I won't upgrade from S22 ultra to S24 ultra. The S22 ultra is still providing me with awesome service. Not a single issue for nearly about 2 years.
Same here
@@marvelgeorge8181 I am only having issues with the battery going low quickly
Exact opposite here s22U is a piece of shit. Worst speakers ever. Curved screen is annoying with a case trying to pull a side menu you gotta like start on the side of the fuckin phone.. 5th s22U I've had in less than 2 years... all replaced under warranty due to faulty speakers. Which is common on them. S24U for the win.
@@Chugg.Norris maybe your region only support the exynos version, have been using my S22u with the Snapdragon Gen 1, for 2 years now with zero issue, regardless of performance or physical condition.
@@Chugg.Norrisif I were on my 5th phone replacement of a company, I wouldn't be buying their new one, much less calling it "FTW" lol
Dont get obsessed with phones, they are all the same, as long as they provide u with a camera which takes photos , a good processor for games and sufficient battery life, spend ur money on other things
We have to be obsessed with these things lol. You can't lie and not tell me you are not on your every chance you get...
Truly said 👍
Some people consider smartphone as hobby, they are generally same but uniquely different, it’s cheaper than watch, expensive watch tell the same time on a dollar toy watch, but they’re not the same. So don’t preach people about their hobby.
Those who don’t care about smartphones aren’t watching these videos, they go out and buy whatever the promoter tells them, we watch these videos because we’re interested.
If i tell you to stop obsessing your hobby, you will have my words coming out of your mouth, and then you’d slap ‘em hard.
My interest on phones combines what I need with a kind of a hobby😊
Yea no I need the extra ram and processor
This is actually a great strategy, so people bought the flagship 1-2 years ago won’t feel that they are using a much older phone
But it might mean they got lazy and stopped innovating
Still may hold onto my S23 Ultra. I’ll upgrade later.
Haha 😂😂😂
Think I'll keep my s21 ultra
I'll wait till at least s25 ultra. I got s23 ultra
Upgrade only if you want the name.
@@sanjai3521 waste of time. More money for the same phone with some software upgrade. Absolutely senseless.
I'll keep my S22U for another couple years. It is still a beast, have no issues with it.
The 22U will get most of the new AI features later this year
Same here
As a s22 ultra owner, this was helpful. Thank you.
So basically don't upgrade?
*Galaxy S22 ultra user*
Yep. I like the flat screen and I know it would be nice as a heavy SPen user, but it's not worth forking over the dough for it. AI stuff looks like fun little tricks, but nothing would be personally used by me. Add in the fact that it's only free for 2 years anyway, and probably a good idea not to get hooked on the AI fluff and then have to pay for some sort of subscription later.
I just got 950ish trade in value from my s22u. 🤷♂️
Pre Order Trade in Value for S22 Ultra is $750
I still have s22 ultra I'm seeing what's s25 ultra going to have
Funny how they got mr.beast to sponsor the s24 ultra. Samsung is getting desperate.
I think we may have reached peak smartphones
We had a while ago. Now just playing a bit extra with gimmicks.
Sooo basically there is nothing new compared to S22 Ultra? Incremental and suttle upgrades are not worth upgrading for me. I'll hold on my S22 Ultra and let's see later when Samsung actually gives something new.
Same, plus a first gen AI phone sounds like a nightmare. It's probably a gimmick like when they found out Pixel was using the internet, not on-board AI.
@@ColonelFusionI have the iPhone 13 Pro Max and my screen has issues. I was thinking about switching to the s24 ultra or saving up for the s22 ultra
Same here! Keeping my S22 Ultra one more year because it's a joy and it will receive updates until 2027...
Get the s22 ultra mine has been flawless and im not upgrading@@suprxmefire9497
As a s22 ultra owner... they fixed the shitty curved screen , the shittiest speakers ever in a galaxy that's in the 22, they fixed that on the 23. And better battery life. The 24 is absolutely an upgrade in at least 3 key areas, for me anyway. This is the 5th s22 ultra I've had in less than 2 years all under warranty, defective speakers. Pieces of shits... Definitely glad to upgrade to a 24.
Let's be honest. I think at this point. The major tech companies are basically spitting in our faces with incremental changes, so small they are unnoticeable 0:47 . It is basically not worth switching phones now for 4+ years.
However, my battery performance has died off on my s22U.
Battery is only issue - else I love my S22 Ultra! But with $1000 trade in from verizon my monthly amount due goes down $14 a month
@gayleostic9738 yeah, I'm saving money if I upgrade.
Ive also noticed a similar difference in battery lingetivity. I wish Id paid more attn to S24Plus vs Ultra for financial reasons. Square or rounded, the S24Ultra screen vibrancy is muted, Im straining even on "Vivid". Its returnable and Im wondering if I shd get the S24 Plus.
I traded in at Samsung bc I need Unlocked. Final cost w/Tax is/was $730 and I received a few Free items -2 packs of 2 screen protectors, and an awful plastc bumper case . Im thinking about starting over, buying S24Plus before I actially send in my S22Ultra. I'm not a Gamer, & don't need Translater. Or stop drving myself nuts & keep S22Ultra.
I’m pretty positive that even before the s24 launch, they already have s25, s26 and s27 blueprints ready for mass production, same goes to Apple or any other company keeps on milking the most profit out of a same cow. Same as a magician business, always keep a few new tricks in your sleeves.
Less camera time on the presenter's face and more time on the phones being PHYSICALLY compared please!
Still keeping my S22 Ultra
Still rocking with s22 ultra I hate curved displays I probably wait for s25 ultra
Still rocking my s21 ultra
This is the first flagship gen Ive been completely uninterested. I have an S22 Ultra. The AI isn't enough of a drawcard given it's using Google's iteration, which is still playing catch-up to ChatGPT4. I think it will get people because of the big AI marketing hype they can push to people who still dont use ChatGPT4 because of various limitations (ability, price, availability, etc).
Given the Galaxy AI is only free for approximately a year and then you'll be paying for it, and said AI helps with photos, if you don't want to keep paying later then you'll be sacrificing some of the camera tech if that is why you switch.
Feels like if you want a phone, that's simply a one-off buy for a longer term than yearly, you'd be better staying with an S23 Ultra.
galaxy ai costing money is only a rumor. no way they will charge for using it. People would just stop buying these phones, they are trying to attract customers and not trying to lose them. There are so many competitors to take its place. They are not that stupid.
I will say, I was hesitant even to upgrade to s23 over s22, but the battery life improvement from the processor alone were very noticable
All on device AI features will be free forever. Only third party services may be charged that too not confirmed.
I feel like you should know more about AI in mobiles and its integration to daily use. Its not like chat gpt 4, chat gpt s just a text generator brother
@@MuiKaHo I disagree. They're waiting to see how the market matures and if Apple starts charging for it. They will for sure charge if they think they can get away with it. They had zero issues with dropping the charging brick to save money as soon as Apple did it.
As somebody who has had every version since note 10, I am going to upgrade from 23 to 24. Because:
-The new glass screen is supposed to be 2x brighter, and have 75% less glare
-I cracked a screen on the very edge of the curved screen on my 23, not everyone does, but this is always where the sceeen cracks
-Curved screen makes a good screen protector hard to come by (always peel or dont cover edges)
-I like the new tech, and dont really want to wait half a year for the software updates, totally personal preference though
-I go caseless or dbrand skin when i can, so the matte edges will be a lot nicer than the current fingerprint magnets on the s23
I have a second gen iphone SE and im thinking of switching to the s24 ultra but that price hurts to look at.
So I guess I am one of the "frugal" users, as I just bought an s22 ultra 512 for less than half the price of the S24. I wouldn't mind losing the curves, and AI would be cool, but just so expensive considering minor differences.
it's ×2 expensive but not ×2 better
im tryna decide between s22u and s23fe. can get both for basically same price. leaning s22u
@@mp40submachinegun81s22 ultra feels like pure luxury versus the FE that's just a phone that's cool & new ish.
Has anyone tried the S24 Plus?
Bro, the S23 Ultra started at 256GB of storage
Finally someone that made a video like this! Thank you so much!!!!
The S22U has no camera rings
S23U has rings around the UW, Wide en 10x lens
S24U has rings around all cameras and the laser
Wish they would've made a gold one. I need to see the yellow in person
I still have my S22 Ultra, and I really see no reason to upgrade. S22 is still a beast, and there is basically no reason to upgrade, maybe only because of battery life.
How long does it last??
@@Mychannelmybusiness Depends on the usage. I charge it every night, but I'm on 5G for half of the day, and that really brings it down. I usually have like 30-40% left at the end of a day. Note that I don't really game on my phone, I usually use it for web browsing, CZcams and similar things. And my S22 Ultra is Exynos version one.
Got all the answers I was seeking. Thank you for all of your valuable input.
We are going backwardss...obviouslyy curved display looks stunning and more expensive.
We haven't yet seen the launch yet but thanks for the video
As a s22 ultra..all what i care about is (gaming performance)
I would to see the performance of s24 ultra in brawl stars..i really want
Im using s22Ultra, but i skip s23ultra since they use 12Mp selfie camera , but im tempting to switch to s24ultra since flat display and they offer 512gb ,and the exclusive color are available.
Same. I'm trading in my S22 Ultra for the Metallic Violet 😍
same with my s22u
boy you guys are quick
Thanks for the information. I'll still use my S22 Ultra 2 more years. I'm disappointed that the S24 Ultra is still heavy and has only 5x optical. Planning to go for a Foldable phone instead.
I really wanted to keep my S22 ultra as I don't see much of a difference between the two but it was laggy and got really hot all the time so I bought the S24 Ultra and I don't have that problem anymore.
1:08 the curve is EXACTLY why I prefer this over a flat display for edge gestures..funny your perspective is the exact opposite 😂
Nobody talks in review how stupid it is to pre-order a new samsung phone.
Samsung can't even run their website properly.
I upgraded because this was the highest trade in value for my s22 ultra ill get with the preorder and it brings my monthly down as well
I thought my S21U had the best form factor ever, however I bought the S22U and it really grew on me.
Sadly here in the Netherlands we only have Exynos processor. Am thinking about buying a used S23U for Snapdragon and better battery life, but in my heart I know I shouldn't waste my money.
The only reason I would upgrade to the s24 ultra is because my s22 ultra only has 128gbs
I almost got an S22 Ultra last year but heard that the power efficiency wasn't great. I want my phone to last me years so i got the S23 Ultra for it's amazing battery life. I'm very happy to have it for a long time yet
Good choice, I upgrade every year (usually) and there is a very obvious difference between battery performance between 22u vs 23u. If the s24u has even better battery life, then it must be a battery beast.
@@twidgit2S24 ultra has better battery life. If you use it with saving mode then you'll be able to use it for 3 days with no charging if u not using it 24/7
Should I upgrade from an S21 Ultra? Is the circle search feature really any different than using Google Lens search?
I have the same question
Does the s22 ultra phone case fit on the s24 ultra
Don't even need to watch the presentation 😊😊
I don't really see the point of upgrading but in Canada they're offering $1160 trade in value for s23 ultra and 0% financing... trying to resist the FOMO lol
not a good offer in the USA so far
They offered 705 euro for my s22 ultra in Ireland. Couldn't resist
Im convinced. I will upgrade to S22 Ultra. Thanks hahahaha
same lol. trying to decide between s22u and s23fe. can get both for same price.
Just upgraded my S22 Ultra to a S23 Ultra. Having spent some considerable time weighing up the differences and even the discounts Samsung offered on a new S24 Ultra, I still feel this is around the best time (as I've always done) at or near the new launch date, to buy the previous model. I managed to get a brand new sealed S23 Ultra for a smidgen above £700, which to me is a cracking deal. Plus, I can now sell the S22 Ultra to recoup some of that cost. Its a no-brainer.
Side note: I feel once you put on a phone case (I personally use Samsung's own) the curved edges and for sure the pen tip, both of these issues you noted are no longer issues.
If you shop around this time of year, you really can grab yourself a great deal. Just my opinion.
Paying £1k+ around launch is insane when you look at the depreciation over 1yr.
Where did you buy the S23 ultra?
I have not been able to find it at that price
I'd someday get a used S22 Ultra perhaps just for collecting. I love the curved edges. Thankfully, other companies have adopted them so they aren't gonna get extinct anytime soon.
Im still rocking with the note 9 iv decided to get the new s24 ultra in light blue and sent the s 23 ultra back for extra 300 pound though it was worth it. Cant wait
I love the s22 ultra, my only issue is that the curved screen causes lots of issues with glass screen protectors.
Gonna keep my s22 ultra for now, it's been 2 years and I still find it hard to put it down. Still a fun phone I really enjoy my s22 ultra..
Nice 🎉
2:35 : S22 curve sides, S23 lesser curve, S24 most squared,
S25, curved in!!!
the presenter is wrong with the 5x to 10x zoom lens issue on the S24U. going from 5x to 10x doesn't involve AI or any software "trickery" it is simply cropping down the image by half to go from 5x to 10x. Given you start off with a 50mp image the end result is actually better when compared to the 12MP image from the native 10x and still entirely optical.
I have watched reviews like this since last year. Since the price for S22 ultra has dropped from $ 1,467.00 to $ 460.00 only for the 12/256 SD variant, I bought it. Ain't no way I am paying full price for these phones.
3:57 S23 Ultra didn't have 128GB
Basically no upgrade?
S23 user
Getting rid of THAT DAMN CURVED SCREEN is worth every penny of the S24 Ultra's price.
Sliding from edge of a flat display is better than a curved display is the most absurd statement in this video and after which point i closed the video
I have the s23 ultra and never had a problem with the curved screen. It looks nicer then a flat screen too. Samsung is basically giving you an old version of their phones and calling it the s24 ultra.
I think edge gestures with curved screens struggle most significantly with a case that has a lip. It's weird to have to dig in there a bit to actually get to the edge.
The only reason i'm moving to the S24u is because i can trade my S22u and basically pay £20 less than what i'm paying right now. Else i wouldn't have changed my S22u, very solid phone.
I like my S22U just fine the curve never bothered me because I keep mine in a case.
I currently have the Note 20 Ultra and my back camera broke so I need to put in my insurance, there offering me the S22 Ultra for $250 deductible so Im trying to decide if I should do that or just upgrade to the S24 Ultra (dont know if there is an ultra just assuming lol) anyone go from this to S24 that can chime in? Is the S24 worth the extra money? Want to add that I typically keep my phone for yrs hence having the note still lol
I still have my s20 ultra...so its time for a Upgrade.
I'm still rocking with the Galaxy S9 and its on its last leg 😆. I want the S23 and last year I was debating between the S22 and S23 but kept waiting and now since were in 2024, I need to decide if I want the Galaxy S23 or the S24. Whichever I get, I will keep it at least 4 years. Ive had this one going on 6 years this May. My other previous Galaxy phones I had kept for 2 years (Galaxy S3) and 4 years. (Galaxy S5). Decisions, Decisions!
Get the 512 s 24. 7 years of os amd security upgrades will keep the phone feeling fresh for all those years since you seem to keep your phone for a long time. The 512 gb is important since 7 Years is a long time with a better camera and no SD card. Put that baby in a good case and never look back
My dad's s24 ultra titanium Grey is a great thing for my s10 5g
l love flat screen.
Im currently on the s22u but the 128gb which is horrible, ran out of space pretty fast so im trading in the s22u for the s24u 512gb for the price of $600 not a bad deal
Ehhhhh my s22 ultra is flawless ...... no thanx
I'll keep my S22 Ultra
Why even upgrade my s23 ultra? I love my s23 and wont be upgrading anytime soon. S24 has only 5x optical and s23 ultra has 10x.
We've reached a diminishing returns point in phones. Only small software related incremental improvements. This is a good time to hold on to your phone for a good couple years before anything drastically new will be introduced. OR maybe nothing will be new for a good 4-5 years who knows. Only part that's the bummer is the battery life dying after a few years. I didn't upgrade to the 23 and will skip the 24 as well. Zero desire or need. Also this push for AI doesn't interest me as it's a hit or miss. Plus seems totally unnecessary.
I've been with Samsung since the Galaxy S2, learnt to wait at least 3 generations if you want a palpable difference.
My iPhone XR completely died about 4 months ago, so I decided to buy an S23 to replace it but being a student in the UK I got 15% off the s24ultra plus a trade in of £410 on my s23 which is almost what I payed for it im getting a new S24 ultra 512gb with a free galaxy watch 6 for a total of £650 which is cheaper than any s23 ultra can be bought secondhand or refurbished in the UK and only about £50 more than an s22 ultra can be bought refurbished
The only problem I have with this video is we see more of the presenter than the devices. Like when he's talking about the curves, we should be seeing the differences and not the presenter.
I hav s23 ultra. I liked the curved display... missing in s24 ultra. 😔 thinking of switching to someother phones due to this
Still no headphone jack or micro sd slot
There are differences but they arent "better" they are just different like for example colours
You forgot to talk about the battery. It last longer than S22 by like 3 hours which's a lot to me
Ive had practically every Note since the Note 3 lol
Guess I stick with my excellent 23 Ultra.
Starting price is higher because you have 12 gb all around, no more 8 gb option.
😂 They charging for AI
I have the s23 ultra and the 24 ultra seems to have little differnces.
In my opinion is not worth the upgrade. Galaxy AI is cool but realistically, in my case I might use this once and forget about it. Battery life since to be the real gain but I still get through a day with my S22 ultra.
S23 ultra or S24?
S23 Ultra for sure
I was surprised using the 5x zoom , I own samsung a big apology, 5x zoom is excellent
I like to spend money on tech but I think I'll keep my S22. Upgrading to S24 is just throwing money away
3:53 wrong about the s23 ultra. The s23 ultra didn't even come with a 128 gb version. It starts at 256 gb
The s22 ultra dose the same thing with the One UI new version. Try it for yourself
Sold my s22u and got a new s23u for less than 250$ . One of the best decisions I've made . Vastly superior battery , less heating and better performance.
Im so bloody confused bc no mention of S24Plus. i just want to scream bc I bought the S24Ultra from S22 Ultra. The screen on S24U is not bright, its dim. Aurggg, apparently I wasted $730 on a new phone.
Watching on my S22 Ultra 🔥💯
I have to say that this is one unbelievable comparison between the Ultra flagship devices of Samsung from 2022 to the present! Nice to know in this comparison vid what has changed!
My most important question: will the 24 ultra scratches as easily as my s22 ultra 😔?
Yes, it does..
Will we get galaxy AI on S23 Ultra?
I think not the ai will be available from the s23 series forward like some of the AI in the pixel 8 isn't available for the pixel 7 series
Doubt it when it's arguably the biggest addition for people to get it. Less consumers will be interested in the change in chip vs. using AI, which is obviously pretty game-changing in many ways.
Umm actually your wrong with the storage for the s23 ultra it too base storage of 256gb
not worth it to upgrade
They’re too similar. I would still be very happy with the 22 ultra, I have an iPhone and I still wish I had it to this day.
@@suprxmefire9497, I have the S22 ultra and am extremely please with it to this day. No issues at all. The epic camera is everything and I've had zero issues with handling, design or any function. I seriously don't care about AI at this point. Maybe after they debug everything it'll be worth it.
@@royweldon2436 the s22 ultra is the most exciting phone I ever experienced. I remember using it a year ago, going to be 2 years in march, at my local AT&T store and it was quite an experience. I was blown away by the camera quality. I had an iPhone 8 Plus at the time and I already wanted to upgrade from that, even though at the time i only had it for a year. I was so happy and already counting my days until graduation so I could get it. I almost chose the s22 ultra until I heard about the battery life of the iPhone, then I got disappointed with it and hated it.
Finally no curved display. 🙌
Should I change my pixel 6 pro with s22 ultra
no stay in the pixel lane and get the 8 pro
I prefer curved phone. Flat looks like design and engineering left the room😢
Might be useful to discuss sneaky Samsung AI features only being free until 2025 then moved to a paywall absolutely disgusting by Samsung hidden in the small print
ahhh not much different still same shit only for 3-4 years,just waiting S28ultra or S29ultra i can see a lot of different things ,like i did before from S7edge to S22ultra that's a big change
S 23 ultra starts from 256 GB of storage
If the biggest difference is "Samsung AI", there aren't no differences at all..
