Great Find!
The display is amazing, no scratches anywhere (body, camera, sides). Its practically brand new. The battery holds up amazingly. It was pretty easy to transfer my stuff over and it works wonderfully after having it for a couple weeks. Came with a phone case, cord and the needle to put in my phone chip.

It was like buying a brand new phone, i have had absolutely no issues with this and its quite the upgrade from the phone i was using. If youre an artist like me and worried if its good enough to use art programs on it definitely keeps up and the stylus makes it that much better, i love everything about it!

Good camera / solid good phone
It has some weight to it ... so if your not use to it it might take a couple weeks. It is on the bulky side but I already new that , it fills up small purses. I like the camera. I like the purple color. I haven't had a y issues. But i do find myself needing to charge it more frequently than my old phone but then again i do have a lot of apps. I think it was a great purchase.

Questions & Answers

Can the phone hold a mini sdcard
Hi Sledge, thanks for asking us your question about the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. No, the S23 Series does not offer expandable storage in the form of a microSD slot. Cloud storage if available, if needed. Check out "Manage storage on your Samsung Galaxy phone" if you would like to learn more. Feel free to contact Support if you think of additional questions. Thanks for being a staunch Samsung customer. - Debra

Do the refurbished phones come with a warranty?
It comes with a limited warranty if it stops working, but for anything longer, you have to buy it separately. For about a $500 phone, that typically runs around $150 from Asurion.
