So has anyone here who has the S22 Ultra, upgraded from the S21 Ultra? You can find a fairly decent price for an S22 Ultra now, which is why I ask. But I currently have the S21 Ultra, and I hear so many people say that the S21U/S22U are basically the same phone, besides the build/design and s pen. I feel like for someone who has the S21U like me, the S23U would make more sense as a logical upgrade... But I can't argue with some of the discounts that I've seen on the S22U. Also, I've heard so many people say how bad the battery life is on the S22U. Evidently, the S21U has better battery life and better speakers according to some.

It's also particularly nice to me the fact that Samsung sells the S22U under their refurbished program.

So any thoughts? Has anyone upgraded from the S21U to the S22U? Or perhaps maybe upgraded, and not seen it as worth it, so went back to the S21U?

S22 Ultra is a great device. If you're not looking for the Next Best Thing, then I would recommend the S23 Ultra. Although I think going to the S24 Ultra would be the bigger upgrade. Samsung has some good trade-in deals for S21 and S22 users. I got $650 for trading in my S22 Ultra.

Yeah, I would prefer the S23 Ultra. I guess I could give it some more time. At some point this year, it should be in Samsung's refurbished program

S24 Ultra is not an upgrade I will do. Too many issues I've heard about, namely with the washed out, dull display.

Take all that with a grain of salt. If you look through the S22 and S23 forums, you will see the same rubbish being spouted by the same people that are spouting it here. There are several trolls who don't even own a Samsung device spreading that rot.

Yeah, no, it's clearly a thing. It's all over the internet. Not just here.
Evidently, the display on the S24U looks much worse than the S23U and S22U. According to something I watched, the S21U was the last phone Samsung made that has a much more punchier, saturated display?
