The S23 for me is heavily underrated.. It's very good for its price..
I've actually heard about a lot of people buying the base S23 this year.. I've also noticed more people have been going for the Plus model and not ignoring it. The Ultra hands down sells the most but I would like to see the 2023 data when it comes out so I can determine for myself how good the sales for the S23 Series overall has been
I'm coming from a pixel 6 pro and got tired of the 6.7 inch I got the S23 for the small screen size and brighter display. No regrets
Doesn't even have expandable storage XD
@@MATomasois that a problem with 256 GB storage?😊
@@switastar it depends if the 256 GB model costs much more than the 128 GB one in your region
Biggest reason to get the S23 over last year's S22 is the battery. The improved chipset and battery life are a huge plus. I've just upgraded from an S8 and couldn't be happier.
The s8 was a great phone back in the day. The s23 is a big update for you!
@@MatthewLetendreyeah man I remember being so jealous when my cousin got one when we were younger and it had just dropped
I'm going from Note 8 to S23.
Thought I was bad. I upgraded today to the S23 from an S9. I'm going to miss that phone after 5 long years 😅
@@rigbone120 Ya I'm coming from a s20 and I will be upgrading to the s23 soon.
I have been using the S23 just over a week now. This is my first flagship phone, before this i only used budgets and midrangers, my previous phone was Oppo A92. So far the S23 doesn't disappoint me. Eventhough it has smaller battery than Oppo A92 (3900mAh vs 5000mAh) it's able to last a whole day. Plus, i always wanted a capable compact phone
Yeah he didn't really talk about the best "features" of the phone which is a faster processor, more capable processor AND it uses less power and that's a pretty big deal for people on a phone for a few hours a day.
Does it have a good camera?
S23 + is far better
@@divyanshukushwaha3897 no shit
You must have 128gb cos the ultra has 5000 battery.
i adore my s23. i've been looking for a good, well-rounded "small" phone for a while now, and it's just perfect for me
Hello how is the battery life please
It really is awesome. Compact without compromise 👍
do you have camera issues with documents photos?
@@RK1FX you have?
Should’ve bought an iPhone 14 pro then
p.s. to everyone who asks why Samsung doesn't send me phones early or even answer my emails, this is why lol. I'd rather just buy the phones & be honest about them.
Hi Tech Daily, I actually both get sent phones from Samsung and buy a lot of Samsungs for myself. And even though I've made 2 super critical videos about their watches, they just keep on sending products. Great openess from Samsung ! 🤝
Hi, can you make a comparison video on a54 vs a73? Im looking too buy one and i want to hear your opinion. All the best
I support you
@@indritmata7636 A73 advantages:
• Bigger screen (6.7")
• Slightly better chip (sd778G)
• More durable (plastic back)
A54 is better in every other way.
I have the S23 graphite color with 256GB, and I upgraded it from my old LG V60 and I can tell the big difference from the size of the S23 and my old LG V60, but the Samsung is been the best phone I had so far!
Nice! I’m glad you like it - I’m sure it was a huge upgrade, but I also sort of wish LG still made phones 😞 we need more competition, especially on the US
@TechDaily It was so hard for me to switch my old LG because I bought it new when it just came out, and it was such a superb device that offered amazing specs, and that seemed to be such an underrated beast that no one talked about. I definitely miss that headphone jack with the Quad DAC and the 2TB expandable storage, but it was fun while it lasted... Samsung definitely didn't disappoint me even though it is missing some of things from the LG V60, but it has been a far more superior device than I thought! I'm definitely keeping this phone until the S24 comes out to the market with new and promising design changes along with specs 🔥
Hey I'm using the V60 now! I'm debating on upgrading to the S23 this year maybe first price drop. Glad your liking it I'm sad I have to leave LG
I'm going to keep using my V60. It is getting the Android 13 update, now.
@TechnologyMan9575 My LG V60 from T-Mobile already got the Android 13 Update like 6 days ago! And that makes me really want to use the LG V60 again 😅
I had the option to buy the s23+ and the ultra but I went for S23,
The compact size, I loved it..I was waiting since the S10e as I bought the s10 plus.
S23 is a huge upgrade, powerful cpu, amazing battery optimisation, 1750 peak brightness + 50mp expert raw mode puts many flagship smartphone cameras to shame.
It's a phone for people who know what's up with new android features.
You ain't to smart I see
Same
@@stayingfocused1bro stfu your the one not smart look at the reasons he gave

It's too small I got the Samsung galaxy s23 ultra
Coming from Samsung Note 10 Lite with Exynos SOC, and Samsung ditched it on the current line of flagship phones, this is a huge upgrade for me. I bought this phone at a discounted price like roughly 25% off from its original price because of their trade-in program which is still available as of this writing. This phone is my very first flagship phone, and it is lovely to use one hand and it lasts me the whole day or more than 8 hours of mixed usage despite the 3900 mAh battery. One point about the SOC is that it is an overclocked SD 8 Gen 2. I got the 256/8 variant by the way. Overall worth the money spent.
Really love the battery life/usage on this thing, it's such a huge improvement from S21, really been happy with the chipset switch from Exynos to Snapdragon.
I have the phone for about a month now.apart from the price(should be around 650 to 700)it's great so far,build quality,the simple and clean design,the compactness,no issues.performance is outstanding,cameras are great, battery awesome.received 3 updates till now made it even better.if someone is an average user and loves to have a very high end ,compact and beautiful device,this is the one right now.I'm really enjoying using this device.
Hubby and I just upgraded to the S23 from the S10, specifically because we're going on a trip and wanted the better camera. In our case, the 23 is a huge upgrade. :)
Congrats! I have an s10 as well. Are there any features of the new phone that you live and or hate? I'm thinking about getting an s23 as well and would like to know your opinion. Thanks and have a fun trip!
S10 best overall phone ever still a beast of a phone
I'm from South Korea and people in Korea usually buy flagship smartphones. We still have large volume of sales on S series. And iphone pro series.. We also have some demand in A series, but our main selling area is always on smartphones which cost over $700~800. I think people from other countries are not that sensitive to some features that non-flagship smartphones do not offer.,
My S23 (base version) just arrived a couple of days ago. This is my first flagship phone, so I had some wild expectations. For context, I'm coming from a Realme 8. In short, the S23 blew me away and exceeded all my expectations (I'd done a fair amount of research beforehand, so I wasn't completely a noob). First few things I noticed:
- The snappiness of...everything. Anything you do on this phone feels instant, moving through settings, taking pictures, opening and closing apps. I'd never used 120hz displays before (max I used was 90hz), so it should be from that. But damn, to me, the 90hz - 120hz difference was MASSIVE, let alone a 60hz - 120hz leap
- So many extra customization settings that I use on the daily. Display screen mode, 85% battery cap, the absolutely instant fingerprint sensor that's still fascinating to use a couple of days layer, more advanced edge panel, the modes and routines, and so many more
- Optimized features that exist on other non-flagship phones that work so much better and are more crisp. The instant NFC recognition of my Yubikey, the perfect adaptive brightness option that actually works perfectly and I don't have to keep it on manual
- The Samsung companion apps (camera assistant, one hand operation+) that add more usability and helpful elements for me. I messed with a setting in Developer Mode to shorten the opening/closing animations for apps and now everything is even faster
The camera quality is also much better than on my Realme 8, but that was to be expected. The portrait mode astounds me, as I'd never had it on a phone before. To me, the S23 was well worth its money (around $660)
This "review" is a bit skewed since this is my first flagship phone but damn. A flagship really is a flagship, I guess.
It's an extremely underrated phone. Typically everyone focuses on the Ultra models. I bought an S23 and checkmarks everything I want in a phone. Very snappy and does everything you mentioned to it's full expectations. I've gotten many compliments on the camera quality.
I am a big S series fan! I just upgraded from s7 to s23. What people don't realize is you can save battery by what you download to your phone and what you turn off when not in use. For instant: Turn off bluetooth and location when not in use. when I install a program I go into the setting and turn off the background data usage and battery usage. It runs smooth and I love it!
s23 is my second s series. I had s10e for a couple of month, but it must've been a faulty phone. It had constant lagging issue, camera malfunction and heating issue. a3 2017 which I still use is amazing though, apart from the fact it hasn't enough space for number of apps I use, and some apps don't even work on the phone anymore. Battery is still impressive, internet works fine, Google pay is slow but works - it's still great as a spare. And that's the main reason I've decided to give samsung another shot. I hope this phone is as good as people say.
That also means a lot that the S7 lasted you until 2023...
I've hesitated to replace my Pixel 5 because new phones these days are too big. But when I learned the s23 was basically the same size as the Pixel 5 and has better hardware than the Pixel 7, I knew it would be the perfect phone for me. Thankfully with my phone provider's monthly payment plan options I won't have to pay full price for the phone.
I still have my Pixel 2 and love the size and back fingerprint scanner. I tried getting the Pixel 5, but could not find it in stock anywhere during the chip shortage. I heard rumors that the Pixel 8 was going to be small, but leaked specs show it not to be as small as expected. I decided to try the Galaxy 23 due to this, and hope the apps aren't a mess like they used to be 10 years ago.
im on same boat i have Pixel 5 and thinking to switch to S23 due superior display colours. Could you tell me please if the signal reception is better on S23 and is there something that you miss from Pixel 5 on the new phone thank you
@@46rrodriguez I'm definitely happy with my choice to switch.
@@Destiny87 thats good. Is the signal reception better. Do you not miss any feature from Pixel 5
@46rrodriguez if there's a difference I haven't noticed it. And there's equivalent features for all things I can think of.
I just bought this phone today. I am moving to this phone from my beloved LG that I have had for the last 6 years. It has been a great one!! The S23 is compact and comfortable for a small hand. I also like how straight forward design is and seems like the OS is easy to understand and learn. I don't mind the "lack of color" since I put a protective cover with a fun design anyway. Otterbox covers are awesome! I am looking forward to using this new phone that is not too complex to operate.
As much as I would have preferred to have held onto my 4 or 5 year old LG V30, I was down to a smidge of memory and needed to upgrade. My LG was a dependable workhorse that never let me down. I'm hoping the V23 I upgraded to this week performs as well for as many years. I still have a bit of a learning curve to tackle, but I'm overall pleased with my new phone.
Upgraded from a 20 and have been impressed. Camera software is much improved.
I picked up the ultra as it fixed the one issue I had with thiers and most android phones. Battery. A device with a battery life about equal too the 14 pro max but can do so much more and still have great cameras is what I'm looking for. The s pen is a bonus
Im currently rocking the s21 thinking about an s23. The S series is just better sized then the pixel 6-7 which are too big. I had a pixel 3 before my 21 that was fantastic ergonomically but now the main S and the basic iPhone are the only reasonable sized phones that also pack performance and features.
Watching this on my computer monitor while holding my S23. Best phone I've owned in decades.
Bought a used s10e in 2019. Best phone I ever had. Traded it in for s22 in 2022. I got 150 for my s10e, free upgrade to 256 GB and a pair of Galaxy buds for $30. I love the s22 and will use it for another year or two
I just purchased an S23 today (on a deep sale, cheaper than Pixel 7!) because I've had my eye on the S22 / S23 for a while.
I was previously using the A52 4G as an Android companion to my iPhone so I preferred to stay with Samsung for a modest upgrade.
It's nice to have double flagships again.
New?
@@tiagov.mendes4422 Yes. But non-US region.
You said cheap at what price you have buy it
Sorry dude the moon is point seller. But the zoom is really the truth. It's nuts.
What is new is the Snapdragon for European user. The S23 will be in a few months around 700€ and it will be as always a killer proposition for someone liking "small" phones
Europeans get Snapdragon in the S23.
S10e is the perfect size. Wish they would make S23e/S24e models. Hopefully one day.
In my country, South Africa, most people who can afford S23 will usually buy the apple alternative. Ask them why they think Apple is better, they won't answer. They buy apple because there is status attached to it. Every house has a Samsung device, but apple is expensive and therefore rare, so people feel special owning an apple phone.
when I see someone with an apple device, I just think oh great what a doofus they bought an apple product
When I see an apple user, I see a wageslave throwing his month salary while he don't have any savings just to be cool, pretty pathetic tbh
I have changed my phone from iPhone SE to S23 and I love it so much. Its firmware is very stable and no lag now running under Snapdragon Gen2. Battery life also improved and really can last for whole day usage. The only shortcoming is the fingerprint sensor might not be sensitive if you put a screen protector on it.
Wise move
I too am coming from an SE. Have never had an Android but thinking of getting the S23. I think that compared to an SE, the S23 will blow me out of the water lol! Thanks for your comment about the fingerprint being affected by screen protector. Good to know.
I bought the S23 today to replace my S10. Its a great phone that I know how to use, I know the menus and how to get out of the phone the parts that I want, so the upgrade is a natural progression and more of the same in a new device is what I am after. After all, if I wanted something different I would go for that. When it comes to phones I think they are much of a muchness, so I am sticking to something that I know will work for me.
You talk like youre 90 years old, learning a new phone is like a day, maybe two if you switch from android to ios and vice versa. They are all similar as hell anyway.
Dumb question but I might be getting the s23 today, if I'm going from a s9 plus to a s23. Is that a big upgrade or not so much? My battery doesn't drain fast and I have no issues with it besides. "Its old" but I fully intended on running it until I destroyed it or until it slowed down. Only upgrading because my wife and I still had our s7 plus' hanging around and att is supposedly doing a free upgrade with an old s series.
I bought the S23 ultra on launch from bestbuy with a trade in. Really like it besides the screen being curved a little bit. Missing the flat panel
Base Galaxy S always become the best selling in the S series lineup in the second half of the year though
It doesn't make into the nest selling phones list but it definitely sells more than the ultra per month starting from around July to the end of the year which is why they released bora purple for the regular s22 exclusively last year
Yes when the price drops down
@@dortmundwizard4232Price has already dropped by roughly $200. I'm not sure if the price drops as much as s22 has. S22 had many negative user reviews and often things like that reflect in price change.
Received my S23 today ... needed support to config the SIM card but they were great to work with. Samsung is offering deals with trade in, so my cost is minimal. Will post further notes as necessary.
i bought the s23 with 128gb in pblack at the last week of april for 770€ which is around 840$. the small form factor is very nice and the build quality is outstanding. it's far better that every Fan Edition or Galaxy A class with all it's plastics. yes, it's mby more than double the price of an Exynos driven a54 but the s23 is worth every single penny!! it's not just the snap 8 gen 2 processing power, it's far more the bluethooth and 5g/LTE performance which is not only faster but incredible energy efficient. if I'm coming home after a 12 hours working day mostly I've still 50 sometimes 60% battery left while i listened to online radio most of the day, using maps a couple times, shoot some pictures and watched a couple YT vids in 1080p at work. my other phones i had to charge twice every day but not the s23.
Got my self the phantom black S23 after using the A50 for the past four years. I gotta say I do not regret switching to a smaller device and I enjoy using the S23 🙌
I paid $600 3 years ago for my s20 Fe 5g and I sold it for $150 to a friend that really wanted it. I bought my s23 256 GB for 859 dollars I'm Happy with this phone.🙂
I bought the Samsung S-23 because my Google Pixel 5A started locking up. I like the phone so far and it has a lot of useful features, very nice pictures, and is just the right size, not to big to put in a pocket. Whish the battery was bigger. The phone got a bit warm after an afternoon of driving in a rental car using Android Auto running Google Maps, and EM radio. The charging rate was great with my new MAOI charger. Disappointed a charge did not come with the phone.
Welcome to flagship phones accesories of 2023
I changed my S8 today for an s23. Is it an upgrade? It really doesn't seem much different. Would appreciate any opinions/input? thank you
I had the fold 3 but it looked like it was going to split up the middle so I traded it in for an S22 and I really like it. But, to your point, if I was buying the phone, I'd wait for a sale on the A53 and pick that up. I've seen the A53 at Best Buy for $300. At that price, it's an easy choice.
Snag that A54 that just came out this week. That’s even better 👀
Don't huy A53.
The processor is trash.
Get A54.
If you can't afford to spend more, then get the A34 instead. A34 > A53
Yes. I bought the A54 yesterday. I got free galaxy buds 2 and traded in my old A52 5g . It cost 307 euro with the clear case. The S23 would have cost me 650 without the galaxy buds.
You got a great deal!
How is the phone?
What about hidden specs that people don't really talk about? Things like speaker quality, colour reproduction of the screen as opposed to just the resolution or refresh rate, longevity of the internals and the cooling system? I remember the days of the nexus 4 and 5 which had all these flagship specs but they skimmed on these "hidden specs" and the quality of the internals. Most nexus phones broke down within 2 years. That's my concern with the mid range phones. I'm worried that they cut corners on things that aren't listed on the spec sheet. It would be good to have more reviews online that look into these things.
I used to have a Sony Xperia z3 compact and my last phone was Realme XT. Decided to change to the S23 and so far it doesn't disappoint.
Hey, I had that phone! What color? I had the yellow. Replaced it with the new Z flip.
Yeah I had z3 compact and loved it. But once the screen was cracked the phone was completely dead and there was no local repair joint for Sony phones.
I'm currently watching this on the s23 itself. I just bought it yesterday. 🎉It's great! I've not had any hiccups in any game, it's smooth, it's fast, and it takes 6 hours to drain it down to 20% with heavy gaming. I downgraded from 6.6 inch display to this and I'm already used to it. 😊
I've always had the S series. I came from the S6 to the S20 5G. And it was indeed a massive upgrade. 120Hz (but not adaptive) and 5G (but not over all radio bands). But it had eSim, dualsim, memory card (I bought a 1TB one).
Now I have had to replace the S20 because the display gave up and have decided on the A54. Why? Because in everyday life it no longer makes any difference whether I have an A54 or an S23. But I just needed the memory card expansion.
So: apart from Samsung Dex and the lack of 4K 60fps support, the A54 can do everything about as well as an S23 - even if the performance is more on the S20 level. But that's totally fine: Games run smoothly in the highest resolution & the camera takes at least as good pictures as the S23 during the day. And otherwise the A54 has everything premium: 120Hz adaptive, full 5lG, memory card, eSim, OneUI, over 1000 nits in sunshine, screen recorder, NFC, full 5 years of support, Gorilla Glass on the front and back, etc. So why should I buy me an S23? I would only have to do without the memory card. In everyday life, the A54 is fast enough - there are enough comparisons here on CZcams where you can see that. Whether I sometimes need 1/2 second more for loading is completely irrelevant. The only important thing is that it can do everything without jerking. Screw the benchmarks that don't reflect everyday life. Gone are the days of big leaps in every next generation and there has never been more premium from Samsung than the A54. I'm sure many see it the way I do. And that's the reason for Samsung's success with the A series.
I'm thinking the same: A54 does everything most users NEEDS. Reflecting on my daily use, I barely play any games. Pretty much just basic communication and occassional social media content. A54 is the most logical at the moment.
And furthermore s23 design looks similar with a54 or a14 anyway.. unlike s22 vs a53 design thats quite different.
Who wanna keep playin heavy games like genshin impact often? Anyway phone games arent too good.
S23 is just better for premium build, compact size with wireless charging and better cameras and processor. Thats it
@@jokast8861 The A54 in a lot of ways is similar to the S23 but obviously, the S23 will be better in almost every situation because it's a flagship and comes with a complete set that will allow the user to feel that kind of experience. I'm also considering the A54 since I'm planning on upgrading in the summer but I mostly want an S23 model so I can finally feel complete and have my very first flagship level phone.
@@Moyaiville_Productions i see, same with my case! I still own A70 and consider the S23 over A54. What phone youre having now?
I was in best buy and compared the A54 and S23 side by side the A54 looked like a fisher price toy phone. I really wanted to get the A54 to save some money but just couldn't do it. Thankfully, Tmo gave me $400 for my S10 so I got the S23. Only thing I miss is the gorgeous blue color and 1440p display. I wish Samsung would make better-looking phones. The S20-S23 have been just plain, bland colors with no flair to them.
I previously used S20+ but decided to go for A54 since A23+ is so absurdly expansive, and they took out the feature I care most - expandable microSD card slot. Why am I paying more for fewer features?
My note 8 started to show its age with some apps telling me they werent being supported. I originally was really interested in the Asus Zenfone 10 for many reasons but main one being size. But ultimately got the s23 for its updates commitment, as i enjoy long term use of a phone
The updates was the deciding factor for me over the Pixel 7.
They will “update” the battery to last only 2hrs 😂
I got one recently and realized it's almost impossible to use the fingerprint unlock feature if you have a screen protector on. This phone is so sleek I would not recommend using one without a case or protective screen. I miss the feature on the s9+ (below the camera)
Have you increased the screen sensitivity? You normally need to do that with a protector.
I heard that after you put the screen protector on, you need to redo the fingerprint settings and it’ll make it work again.
Redo fingerprint after putting on screen printer and also increase screen sensitivity
Just wait about 6 months - samsung phones depreciate horribly in price. Im still using a galaxy s20+ unlocked w/12gb ram and wont give it up! My wife had the same s20+ and got a s22+ and doesnt like it compared to the s20+. Shame on samsung for making a bulky "iphone-like" design with the flat edges. The s20 series was the peak of samsung.
I got the S21 mostly because of its size as it's great for one handed phone use. I do like the Plus and Ultra Models. But the S21 is already about the same size as the S23+ and going to the smaller S23 is a no-brainer for me.
I upgraded from the S20 FE to the S23, and the difference in performance is huge because I have the Exynos variant
I have an s20 fe, is the battery much worse or better? Im interested in 23 due to compact but unsure
@@Neon_toaster Definitely, DEFINITELY better. It’s a newer phone, hence newer battery, and not to mention the highly efficient 8gen2 Snapdragon processor means at least full day battery with light usage.
I upgraded from the S20FE to the S23. So far so good. I didn't have any problems with the S20FE
I’m planning on picking up an S23 later this year when the prices go down quite a bit. Last year I got the S22 plus, but was very disappointed with the battery life and overheating issues that I had to sell it and go back to my iPhone. The fact that many CZcamsrs including you claim the battery life has significantly improved is very reassuring and giving me confidence in my decision to switch back again.
I'm waiting for prices to go down too 😭 do you know when it's gonna happen ? I heard they will go down maybe in December. Idk if I can wait that long tho
@@sofi1561 They may have some Christmas sales since they release the new ones in February. So either black Friday or Christmas or both. They may also choose not to lower prices until after release in February or March 2024 to get rid of inventory.
@@Sulfen it's so sad , I'm tired of waiting
I recently bought the s23, this thing is amazing comparing to all the phones i had before (xiaomi 11). The battery is just amazing as well as the camera AND performance, overall recommend
Bought one 7 months ago, easily the best phone I've bought in quite a while. While this is not a phone for everyone, I may have a soft spot for compact flagships. Fits just right in my hand and pockets, while having all the bells and whistles I need.
I recently got an Samsung A33 and its does what I need it do and can even do the occasional gaming session. Theres alot to love about these Samsung phones for only $350 CAD ($260 USD) .
I bought S20FE 5G in September 2022 for 300$ . Hoping that samsung provide regular updates for this, it's best for that price.
I love this phone but I hate it didn't come with a brick for to charge. That's stupid on the manufacture behalf.
Are you serious. If you had a phone before than you should have a charging brick and for some reason you don't you could easily get a one for cheap. I don't know why this argument keeps being brought up.
@Shadowzz. When I buy a product, I would like to have all my pieces there in the box. I spent good money on this phone, therefore i shouldn't have to go and buy a brick. Thar should be common sense from the manufacturer side. YES, all the pieces should be there. Periodt.
In the event the manufacturer doesn't supply something, it should be highlighted in big bold words on the outside of the box.
I picked up the plus variant as I wanted higher storage and higher capacity battery. It costed me a lot but I'll be using it for atleast 4 or 5 years so the price will be justified
That's if your battery doesn't blow up, look it up
I have a galaxy s10 and before that, I had a galaxy s7 which was my best phone, till I left Sprint and went with T-Mobile. Sprint blew up my phone after I left. I've only been with the Galaxy line since the first sprint epic 4g. Now that phone was great. Very different from the other carrier's version. sliding mech and keyboard with that bright screen that phone lasted me a long time before upgrading to galaxy s4 and s5. So now I'm looking to get a new phone, saving up like I would a laptop, and using it for 5 to 6 years or until Samsung decides not to support it with any updates. That is when I upgrade now. I considered upgrading to an iPhone but I've only dealt with Samsung after leaving Nokia and LG phones. I don't think I'm ready for that transition.
literally any big company on their way to chose the worst fucking colors in existence for their phones:
Coming from a pixel 5a, this s23 is a huge upgrade
As a mobile gamer, I find this phone to be incredibly enticing, with its quite low price, sweet deals with carriers like T-Mobile, and exquisite performance, I might just pick it up!
Isn't 6.1 inch too small to enjoy games?
@@kevinjaitejmontbose5377 I had an ancient a13 when I wrote this, and ever since I bought the phone a few months ago, the difference is night and day. The a13 had a 6'6 inch screen, yet the performance was lack luster. the s23 is more expensive, but the performance upgrade is well worth the loss in screen real estate, even when playing games.
@@kevinjaitejmontbose5377how?
Upgraded from my Pixel 6 Pro to the S23 Ultra. I love the Ultra so far. I did have a Note 10+ prior to getting the Pixel 6 so going back to a Note style Samsung has been awesome.
I'm thinking about upgrading to this phone from S20, does this phone have a slot to use a SD memory card?
IMO if you have a 2019 or older flagship Android phone, upgrading to one of the S23 phones is worth it. If it's newer, unless you got a good trade in deal, not really.
I'll add that the S23 series all have amazing battery life and they don't throttle down performance as much due to overheating like the S21s and S22s. That might be a factor in buying a S23.
@@e.l.4409hello, I have a s9+ is it worth it to upgrade in your opinion to s23 or s22ultra they are the same price in my place
The phone I want to buy, but I'm so tempted to wait for the Google pixel 8, since the rumors of 5.8 size... but it's such a struggle. But this phone itself is amazing, and it's honestly slept on dramatically, but I understand the price is the reason why people are leaning away.
Been rocking pixels since the P1. Finally gaveSamsunganother chance. Last Samsung phonewas the s3. This phone is much better than pixel phones on every level. And you can actually use it with no problem. Upgraded from the P5 and this is the jont. If you download Good lock and look at a lot of tips and tricks videos, you can literally set this s23 up to look and work just like a pixel. Everything from the settings menu layout and color customization on every single part of the phone. Bixby is not a feature that is used for me on this phone a lot. But you can set up things like answering a call with Bixby text which is very similar to call screening. You can also talk back and forth with the person before answering. And the phone is the exact same size as the P5 for a size reference. Also get the 256 gb because it has faster storage speeds. Swiftkey keyboard is also the best option and you canvl really customize it to whatever you need it to do. Just takes a lil getting use to. Pixel has probably lost me as a user. Their phones look almost childish (as far a the screen quality and brightness) and compared to these s23s. And you can fully customize it with good lock. This phone made me realize that Pixel has been slacking and giving us the bare minimum all these years. Eye hope this helps coming from an all pixel user. (House is filled with about 8 nest minis, google wifi and extender, pixelbook go 4k, google TV with chrome chromecast on all tvs) and switching over to the Samsung ecosystem might be my next option. They've been putting out quality for some time now!
@@mackmccord3743 I wish I saw this before getting the 7a. Very underwhelming. I'll give it a month before deciding if I should keep it.
@@HolidayInGuantanamo well here we are a month later. And the pixel experience is missed badly. The only thing the s23 has over the 7a is screen brightness... This s23 will be traded for the pixel 8 as soon as it's released. Sometimes the s23 randomly reboots while switching between apps. And it will reboot and then it needs to be restarted a few times before it starts working correctly. There really is no comparison. Pixel experience me over the Galaxy experience any day lol. Being a DJ/producer/Singer and not having now playing on my phone has been a horrible experience. Bixby call answer is nothing compared to Pixel call screening.. the pixel just does everything you need it to do without you even realizing it. You won't notice it until you don't have your pixel anymore.
@@mackmccord3743 I been looking at the s23 and pixel as well what would you recommend as a next phone based on your time with the s23
@@HolidayInGuantanamoI ordered s23 about a week ago because the price dropped.
I ditched pixel 7a few weeks ago after only using it for a month. seriously it was a nightmare phone beyond description.
5g connectivity felt more like 3g, internet got disconnected too often, and at very moments when I need it. And it was only one of the many issues it had.
If your pixel 7a was like mine, cut the losses, there's no point in getting stressed over a shitty phone. Trade-in that damn phone and get s23 before it devalues in price.
Hy. I just bought 3 Samsung devices last month: A53, S22 and S23.
I like all of them. Great software, solid buid, good cameras and easy to find accessories.
Also, easy to sell when we'll want an upgrade.
i have a s21 and will be getting the s23+ in the mail tomorrow. my charging port wasn't working properly and i didnt want to rely solely on wireless charging. i enjoyed my s21 so much and didn't have plans on parting so soon.
Good day and ty for ur video! I just wanted to exchange that i was the owner of a Samsung S10 E for 6 years and haooelt so! Not a scratch i was about going to change the batterry thow starting to lose energy fast! But being a new retire pokice officer i decided , after making an extensif research everywhere, Google, CZcams etc... i finaly decided to stay in the S Serie but the brand new 1 Samsung S23 Ultra!! Omg what not only a incredible diffrence but what a machine! Plus i hv an hobby being a professional photographer for 25 years and fully equiped camera and all lenses, i decided to chalenge both! It was mind blowing before having to transport all my gear now i hv a great camera in the palm of my hand! Plus video so precise and so many qualities, even if S serie is not always at the top i think they made it right ! I give my S10E to an handicap person with still a flipp phone and bought my self a expensive gift that i am sure with the 4 years update waranty and 5 years security was worth the price! So i could go on and on and still learning the multitude of things to learn and play with i give a 4.8 on my phone! Thanks and hope you will do a nice test soon on the S23 Ultra! Frank
I bought the Samsung Galaxy A53. I wish I had waited for the A54 though. But for the S series, they are just to damn expensive. That is the issue. If they could lower the price, probably but till then, I will stick with the A series till I land myself in some filthy money. 😅
Samsung needs another FE. They peaked with the S20 FE for real. Their A series is so good now though. Enjoy that A53, it’s a great phone 👍
A serie is a tremendous value as well
@@TechDaily it seems there is a S23 FE on the horizon
Same I also want a S series but it’s too damn expensive 😂 I just got a54 tho!
@TechDaily I'm hoping they continue going up with the S23 FE
Love my s23..coming from a pixel 6 pro. I'm glad I went back to a smaller screen
How you finding the battery on heavy usage camera etc?
I’ve been using 23 Ultra 512gb for 3 weeks, battery have been good, I got about 9hours out of it with heavy use, performance is as expected, quite hot with weather here though(35c). The only problem I got is the phone sometimes froze with discord and i can do nothing about it unless I force restart the phone.
It getting frozen on discord is very concerning. I'd return it to samsung and get a replacement lmao
I purchased an S10e and S10 Plus about 4 or 5 years ago. I recently got an S23 Plus and Ultra
Ive just upgraded my samsung a71 to an s23 just yesterday. Def not too happy about the screen size since i actually enjoy larger phones. Im already going to miss my a71s size😢😢
However i am IN LOVE with the refresh rate on the s23, so fast and smooth. Maybe im not used to it yet cause for me sometimes its a bit too responsive but ill get used to it over time. For now thats all i can really say! Ive only had it a day lol
I'm late but I kinda now wish she bought the s23+ instead😢
Will be switching my A71 to a S23 as well after my LCD just suddenly pop up white lines until half of my screen are white lines, exactly after 3 years from purchase.
Looking forward to go back to small phones. Big ones are killing my wrist 😅.
I just bought an s21 fe (my first flagship) a couple of weeks ago, absolutely love the thing. It's fast and the screen is amazing. I don't understand why people don't buy the normal s phones.
The S21 FE is a heck of a phone for the $$$
@@TechDaily yeah your right
But S21 FE battery life is weak....🤔🤔🤔
@@Xevos701 I did notice that
@@ItsBuuild and it gets hot like the s22 but the s23 fixed that.
Just picked up a 23+ the flat screen and the edges make it easily the best phone to hold. Got a great deal on the 512
I have had large phones for the past 4 years and i went with the s23 to try a smaller phone and i love it. Im a plastic injection machine tech and alway put a heavy duty case on my phones that make the phones even bigger. So crawling around with a huge phone in my pocket was getting old. The camera is great and the screen is awesome and its fast.
Love my S23! It's been an amazing phone for me. Everything has worked great! Had a Pixel 5 didn't like the pixel 7 for how much larger it was and wanted that compact phone still. Didn't like Samsung because they burned me in the past. But decided to give them a chance again. I don't regret it at all. My only complaint is I wish the charging speed was faster. But other than that. It's been a great phone!
Nice! I also have a pixel 5 and hesitant about another pixel as they are just too large. My pixel has just died though so need to get a new phone and looking at the s23. How's the camera vs the Pixel? That's my big consideration. Also I found in the past Samsungs just were slightly laggy after time, any of that? Thanks!
Too small
I've been using the s20fe and was planning on getting another 2 years out of it at the very least, but it's developed the green line of death so I'm looking to upgrade. I'm strongly considering the s23 as the ultra is waaaay too expensive and the s23 still has the top end chipset. For me it's between that and the pixel 7
I think the s23 and pixel 7 are completely different leagues of each other at least in price, power and battery efficiency. I heard the pixels tensor isn't quite on par with what qualcomm offer but the price is attractive so might be worth comparing specs of both before splashing. I personally went with the s23 256gb and am happy with it. my mate had the pixel 6 pro and just complained about it all the time but he does abuse his phones so.
@zytoses9223 Well I wanted to stay away from pixel because my buddy got the 6 pro and had nothing but software issues with it. It seems they fixed those problems since and the 7 doesn't have the same issues.
But yes, the 7 and s23 are two very different phones. The processor on the s23 is definitely better than the 7, tho the 7 will still work fine for anyone that isn't running super demanding applications. Also the s23s screen is better all around as well as the camera system (imo) if it wasn't for the price difference, it would be a no-brainer which one to get
I have a pixel 7 and honestly, it's a nightmare... It's still super glitchy, freezes, camera lacks- big time. I'm watching this video bc I'm about to buy the 23.
@@erinschoenfeld2193 yeah I ended up getting the s23 after. Its actually really good. I can get a day and a half out of the battery if I really want to and it runs everything really well. Cameras on it are good too
I got Pixel 7a and I'm still on the fence. The fingerprint sensor is really flakey. Never had issues with S20 FE fingerprint. The fact that it only has 2x zoom is also a worry.
So I have the Samsung s10e. Do you feel it's worth upgrading to the s23?
Had the s9 to s20 now s23 they all served me well even did school work on them. Work Horse 👍
I've had the s10+ for 5+ years. It's still just as fast as it was out of the box and the battery lasts 2 days (for me). I recently got the s23 with the intention to keep the s10+ as a back up phone. I'm about to activate it and I'm going to be honest. Samsung seems to stay the same. I'm not expecting any huge upgrades. I actually picked the s23 because it's small. I have small hands and the s10+ is hard for me to hold and operate. No one handed use and my texts are filled with typos. Let's see.
I agree. I love the S10+, and now have a S20 FE. The older phones for me seem to be better.
The s10 series is 4 years old. How did you have it for 5+ years?
I’ve been waiting patiently for Samsung or Google to release a phone with great battery life to switch to android. I’m going to trade in my iPhone 13 for this phone and probably won’t switch to Apple for a very long time.
I might get the S23+ then if battery life is your main concern. Bigger phone, bigger size battery by a bit
@@TechDaily Yeah, the S23 + overall has stellar battery life. All S23 models have stellar battery life and can compete.
Where did u get the wallpaper?
I recently got the s21 and the battery life hasn't been good. I was expecting all day battery life coming from my s9. The a series are way too big for me, and the battery life improvements don't seem very consistent based on consumer reviews...so I'm going to sell the s21 and going back to the s9, but I'll get an s9+ this time with a new battery. I'll eventually get the s23 or s24 when I have more money
I went from the 14 pro to the s23 loved it . A lot of the features I use are better on android and also they’re about the same size as the standard pro which is what I like .
hi ! did u see a lot of difference with the quality of pictures and video ?
i’m on an 13promax and i really want to go back on an « small » phone and de S23 looks amazing but i’m scared to regretting because of the camera ! 🥹

This Apple Fan boy (content maker) is technically zero.
Because of the LACK of SD card support I ended up buying a new S20FE unlocked on Amazon for $450 for use with T-Mobile about 5mths ago. It's now running the latest Android 13 minus a few features the S23 has but am quite happy with the S20FE. In spite of the chipset difference the S20FE is very peppy and handles everything I can throw at it and is really not that much slower than the S23 when run side-by-side with a friends phone. I do not take many pictures so camera quality is a mute point for me and battery life is actually better on the S20FE as well. When you stack the two together $450 (even less today) vs. $1200+ the S20FE is PLENTY for almost everyone at a significant savings of CASH!
The SD storage is MOST important for me as streaming music over cellular just KILLS a battery in no time with a weak cellular signal and streaming off an SD card consumes FAR LESS power and generates FAR less heat and can listen to music ALL day at work and still last almost 2days before charging! The S23 stands NO CHANCE here as WELL at over double the price! Unless your making PROFESSIONAL video do you really need cameras with such high specs?? With the lack of SD storage a 1TB S23 cost is absolutely RIDICULOUS! I love Samsung but NO longer have a desire for their "FLAGSHIP" models anymore at these prices! For video and music storage 512GB is NOT enough and this is where SD storage really shines!
I used to spend 1k on the new notes ever since the note 2. Then I went budget so I didn't have to make massive payments. I had the a13 5g last year, and now the a54 5g. No sense in going back since these budget phones have everything I want and need. I think the a5x and a3x series are the ones to go for and pay cash. No more 400$ phone bills for this family.
i bought this phone a month back and i am blown away!!! upgraded from s22 but still feels like a significant upgrade
I'm gonna get this phone coming from a s20. I will be upgrading this summer. I think the biggest upgrades from the s22 is battery life and the prossessor inside.

I owned Samsung phones for many years...S4, S9, and now the S23. Have always been happy with them.
I am a Samsung phone user since I got my very 1st phone back in the day(Galaxy Mini) very very long time ago. I still remember the 1st curved screen phone the S7 Edge(I had it for 4 years) it was an inmpressive phone. Then i did a swap to the S10e from S7 Edge. It was good but the battery life on that phone was annoying. Then I took a brake from the Samsung phones and switched to Iphone 12... My first Apple phone ever. It was allright, but after 2 years of use, i switched back to Samsung, and ordered the S23. Such an amazing phone. 15/10 for me.
It's not going to be a best seller, but Samsung made the conscious decision to make the Ultra their real flagship. Now for the regular S23, it's for those upgrading from 3+ year old phones, want a compact phone with a high end camera system. Let's be serious, the A5x series cameras can't compete with the S23. Going from old S-series flagships to an A series is a camera downgrade.
You are correct, but the question remains, is the S23 worth the extra £500+ for those benefits? The primary camera on the A54 is good enough for the average user, IMHO.
@@andyH_England your probably right about that. Most people aren't too picky with their cell phone photos.
@@andyH_England Here in the US, the S23 costs $350 more than an A54 right now. Actually, no, it costs $250 more since Samsung did a price discount on it that will not last for very long. The A54's starting price was $450 which is $50 less than the A53's starting price last year, and the S23 starts at $800. The cheapest you can get full price for it as I mentioned before without extra discounts is $700 since Samsung dropped the price slightly for it. The S23 + got dropped to $850, and the Ultra got dropped to $1,000. I think the Ultra should've initially had a price of $1,000 but that's just my opinion.
@@BlackhawkSC About the S23, a lot of people have been getting it but of course, the Ultra will be the best seller phone when talking about Samsung. I've also noticed a lot more people going for the Plus model this year too compared to last year. Another thing, I'm glad Samsung doesn't charge the prices they had in 2020 for the S20 models. I couldn't believe the starting price was $1,000 for a base S20 model.. Thank god Samsung started to charge $200 less when the S21's came for all of their S Series flagships.
@@Moyaiville_Productions Yep, the US gets better prices mainly as they do not have our 20% VAT.
I want to buy the S23 but it's too expensive. 😫
I want the ultra but I don’t even have a job
I've always chosed vanilla s series (s8, s10, s20, s21, s22). The last one made me switch to bigger model (s22+). I was pretty happy with it, but few days ago I got s23 and, damn, I just like it. 😌
I actually got the s23 Ultra about a month or two ago. This Ultra is the first phone I've gotten since 9th grade (2016 or so) that wasn't an iPhone. The last Samsung phone I had was a $20 promotional one for Cricket Wireless around that timeframe, and after that, I got the iPhone 5s, then 6s, then XR, then finally the 12 Pro Max. I would have gotten an iPhone 16 Pro Max next year if my husband hadn't convinced me to switch to Samsung. We went over to BestBuy to look at the display phones and I got to mess around with the s23, s23+, and the s23 Ultra. I loved the Ultra the most for its size, shape, and the fact that it has the curved vertical edges that Samsung is famous for, which I have never gotten to experience. The S-Pen is also something that sold me, since I loved my iPad and the Apple Pencil where I could write things down instead of typing (I love writing), and I also love to doodle and draw.
I also already have a high-speed charging wall brick, and my s23 Ultra goes from 5% to 100% in about an hour and 40 minutes or so, and one single charge will last me about a day and a half. I play 7DS: Grand Cross and I run the highest performance so that does knock my battery down a little bit but not nearly as bad as my 12 Pro Max. If I'm using my phone minimally (such as the average workday) the phone will easily last over two days on a full charge.
I love it. The only downside is that iMessage isn't updated and uses outdated messaging (MMS) when communicating with Android phones. That's largely a USA issue, though, since WhatsApp is popular in other areas of the world which eliminates that issue.
last most sold s series regular device was the s10 as I remember.

Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!!
I have had mines for a week now
I own the S23 with 512GB storage. And man oh man this thing is incredible! It is my first flagship since the S4. I had an A52s prior to this one and that phone was amazing for the price range. Capable of high performance and great camera capability.
The reason why I got this one was because I wanted the 8 GEN 2 experience and the portability.
@Sam. I don't use my phone all that much so I can't say for sure. On regular use it lasts me a day.
@@KoalaBeer. I got a s23 for a week now and with Twitter, CZcams, Facebook and Instagram it easily lasts 7-8 hours sot!
Im also coming from a52s and planning to upgrade. Can you give more of your input on the performance difference?
@@ayetadios6469 There is a massive performance difference between the 8 Gen 2 and 778G chips. All modern day flagship features are available on the S23. 4k video at 60fps, Full HD at 120fps. Gaming at max settings with no lag and my device doesn't heat up. The A52s was amazing, it is still as performant as a lot of mid rangers this year. Hell it is even faster than an IPhone 11 / 12 based on my personal tests as I have used all devices.
Overall, the S23 is a great investment if you want the flagship experience. In my opinion, go for it.
mine is on its way right now.. been with rogers here in Canada since 1999...my 2 year contract ran out in 2019 and to get me onto a new one my s23 was entirely free.
Because the samsung midrange is great for the price also interms of features while iphone don't have entry and midrange devices if it does then people maybe buy their midrange rather than their flagships but the performance maybe will drop.
