S23 Ultra reviews

[Serkle K]

I'm pretty surprised at how fast people are jumping to put reviews out. Especially making photo comparison reviews, it's just odd to me, because I'm almost 100% positive they're not reviewing final-release software. I bet there will be a few if not at least one camera app update, if not on launch day, shortly after.

Still waiting on Flossys review, lol

That's right - these are all review units sent out before the Unpacked event and they all try to get their vids out as soon as they can. This is where Flossy excels because he only does an unboxing, then he REAL review is with the unit his buys on his own so it comes later than most people's but at least it is actually production hardware and software.

Yes we have to wait for that it's major major major major major major go. We will probably get an extra major and sniff test on the red color. Oh, don't forget it's to damn high. We will get it's not worth upgrading from the S22 as all yearly upgrades are that. We will get the dislikes such as no 3.5 Jack, no sd card, no charger, and no IR blaster. We pay top dollar for a phone and should get this.

I watch his reviews, but they all pretty much say the same thing every year.

I can't ever remember getting 7 majors! That would be epic. Lol, don't forget about the White Shoes shout-out. Regardless of how repetitive his reviews can be, they are certainly entertaining.

MKB has put out a review of sorts of the important changes from the S22U to the S23U. He makes a real good point about the processor too.

I've read some comments in other reviews about how phone companies should stop making annual releases of the phones since the changes are so minor. I personally think that is a silly idea. It should be up to the consumer as to when they want to upgrade - so if Samsung wants to come up with an annual update, so be it. Everyone assumes that it's a minor update as if everyone has last year's model, which is obviously not the case. These phones are not intended to be an annual upgrade for most folks - especially the average user. But that doesn't mean you don't update the phone annually. Everyone has their own cycle on when they want to upgrade and an annual update more or less ensures that, rather than be forced to upgrade in 1 year or 3 years if on a 2 year release cycle.

I'm definitely due to update as I am on Android 9 and my last security update was January 2020. I want the latest tech not something that's 2 years old...

Just saw this video that explains Bixby Text call. Which looks exactly like the Google call screener.
Really excited to try this feature.

Haha when I saw your post, I went to my ZF4 and noticed an orange dot on Phone Settings and lo and behold, I never noticed this in there before. It sounded quite cool and then I realized I had to download the Korean pack because it's only in Korean (for now). LOL buzz kill until 2/17.

Considering I inexplicably get a ton of spam calls in Chinese from American locations, I think it would be hilarious if my phone did answer in Korean. I'm of mixed Asian and European ancestry myself.

It has bixby tied to it, that concerns me.
