Samsung s23 ultra

Before reading this review, there are a few things I want to suggest. Don’t get caught up in the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra’s admittedly high price tag, but instead think about the value it represents. Don’t get overwhelmed by its astonishing ability or extensive feature list, but consider the things it can’t do. Don’t think of it as being “more of the same” either, as you’ll miss things that mean it’ll stay usable for longer. Contents • • • • • • • • • • • Show 6 more items I know that’s a lot of “don’ts,” but there’s a reason I’ve pointed them out. It’s because the Galaxy S23 Ultra can do pretty much everything you want today, next year, and almost certainly for a few years after that too. When you know this, it’s only the things it can’t do that will matter — and believe me, it’s a very short list indeed. Join us as we go into detail in our full Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra review. Our Galaxy S23 Ultra review is based on several weeks of regular use with the phone. We tested three different models throughout that time, First, one review model supplied by Samsung in the U.K. used by Joe Maring/Digital Trends I came to the Galaxy S23 Ultra from the It’s not unmanageable, but there is a period of adjustment involved unless you’re already using the You will get used to the S23 Ultra’s size and weight, but if you’ve got small hands, the width and thickness make singlehanded use very difficult, which is far harder to overcome. It’s a consideration that’s mostly unnecessary on phone...

I love portable technology—if you can put it in a pocket or a bag, I’m probably into it. I’ve covered phones and tablets of all shapes and sizes, and reviewed everything from game consoles to laptops in my decade-plus career. Prior to joining PCMag, I wrote articles for Android Authority, How-To Geek, MUO, New Atlas, Tom’s Hardware, and plenty of other tech publications. Hardware Subtleties As you might expect, the devices aren’t all the same size. The Galaxy S23 is the smallest at 5.76 by 2.79 by 0.30 inches (HWD) and 5.93 ounces. The previous-generation The S23+ measures 6.21 by 3.0 by 0.30 inches and weighs 6.91 ounces. It practically has the same dimensions as the Finally, the Ultra comes in at 6.43 by 3.07 by 0.35 inches and 8.25 ounces; it's one of the largest phones on the market.

With the S23, you get a 6.1-inch Dynamic AMOLED panel with a Galaxy S23 Ultra (Credit: Eric Zeman) The Galaxy S23 Ultra features an impressive 6.8-inch Quad HD+ Dynamic AMOLED screen that also runs at 120Hz. With a resolution of 3,088 by 1,044 pixels, it has a density of 500ppi. In terms of brightness, all three put out 1,200 nits (typical) and 1,750 nits (outdoor peak). In previous gene...

That’s all good news. The bad news is that it remains a very expensive device at $1,200, which is a bit more than a $1,099 iPhone 14 Pro Max and a big leap from the Pixel 7 Pro’s $899 starting price. There are some familiar sore spots with Samsung software, like its insistence on including its own app store in addition to Google’s. And although the camera system can produce stunningly good images, it occasionally makes weird choices and comes up with a photo that’s just downright bad. Looking at the S22 Ultra and S23 Ultra side by side, you’ll see the slightly different shape on this year’s model — a display with a little less curve at the edges and side rails that are flatter. It doesn’t sound like much, but I think it makes a big difference. It feels much more secure in my fingers every time I pick it up off a table than the curvier S22 Ultra did. I realized I was actually bracing myself for it to slip out of my grasp every time I picked it up, which happened a lot with its predecessor. The S23 Ultra feels more secure as I pick it up but also in my hand as I’m using it, too, which is especially important when you’re writing on it with the S Pen. All that said, it is still a very big and relatively heavy phone. The screen is still a 6.8-inch 1440p LTPO OLED panel with a top 120Hz refresh rate. It’s lovely to use and basically the same as last year’s. My one complaint is with the embedded fingerprint sensor, which is inconsistent and a beat slower than the one Compared to ...

I'm certainly not a professional filmmaker, nor do I consider myself to be a shutterbug. But after using the Galaxy S23 Ultra for several days, it's clear the new camera upholds the areas in which Samsung already excels -- like low-light photography -- and pushes those strengths a little further. The $1,200 (£1,249, AU$1,949) Galaxy S23 Ultra will be available on Feb. 17 alongside the rest of Samsung's new phone lineup, which includes the $800 Galaxy S23 and $1,000 Galaxy S23 Plus. Like last year's Galaxy S22 Ultra, the S23 Ultra's giant screen, high price and souped-up camera may be too much for the average person.
