      Outside of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, there is no point updating every year.
      I was not going to update my s21 to the s22. But an issue with the speaker came up and getting it fixed for a 2nd time was pointless.
      And it's not much of an upgrade.

      Way out of my budget unfortunately. I can afford it if I want to (just dig into my savings), but the price to value ratio seems unbalanced, so it's not worth it. That's throwing away 2-3 months of rent on a laptop for me... It just doesn't seem smart. 2.2k is too much for a laptop, even a good one.
      In a couple of years it'll drop in price hopefully, and then I'll consider getting it. I would probably pay 1.2k for the lower end specs, or around 1.5k at most for the higher end specs of the Book 3 Ultra.
      That's all just theory though, and wishful thinking. If the price doesn't drop, it is what it is, and I'll just move on to the next thing.

    I have the Note 20 Ultra, love the phone, great camera, but I want the newest camera! Not sure if I'll ever upgrade again because of how solid this phone is, and.... a expandable storage option is a make or break for me. I'm hoping they'll bring it back, like they did after the 6 series.

  • @Zactivist

    Interesting, love the look and boxier shape of the S23 Ultra. But I just don't know. The loss of an SD slot on Samsung phones now that 1TB SD cards are super affordable makes it hard for me to consider sticking with Samsung. I like to keep tons of videos, music and work files on my phone, and SD has always been perfect for file storage while letting the phone itself remain fairly empty and running its best. I know its just a ploy to sell the 512 and 1TB models rather than allow me even more storage for much cheaper but I hate the tactic. Samsung over the years has just removed all the android advantages that kept me owning nearly every model up until recently. Now I look around more at other more cost-effective options.

    cant wait to get mine ; preordered it from T-Mobile ; samsung indicates that shipping of their new 512 gb 23s ultra's will be around feb 17 , 2023 ; i had no trade-in but still got a great deal ; got the 55+ magenta plan for 1 line , the wallet case ,
    the insurance for the phone , the protective piece for the face and the wireless phone charger and with the unlimited
    everything for two year service for around $190/mo using auto pay
    the phone and the 5g service ain't cheep folks but if it lives up to all the hype ( wouldn't that be nice for a change )
    will it be worth it ????? only time will tell
    my one concern is that the pen is accessed from the bottom ; what if the locking mechanism fails to function and then
    during the course of the day the pen just drops out without me noticing ; would much prefer the pen to be accessed
    from the top , that way i would have a better chance of seeing the pen being loose in the phone before losing it.

    I'd like to see a review on the Ultra model laptop 👀

    The thunderbolt ports are a big thing on the computers.

    I have preordered my phone, the lavender S23 plus.
    Super stoked as I haven't owned a Samsung in 4 years. Thanks Thao you are always my go to gal. ✌🏼

    I find it funny that the s10+ has a better screen resolution than an s23+. As well as expandable storage and the 3.5mm jack.

    I'm very interested in the 360, but I want a ultra 360 fusion

    I honestly wish the ultra would allow for S Pen, need something to paint own, and render on that's as powerful as that.
