    This is the best thing that ever happened to me! I already had Samsungs, but this one is simply amazing: the camera is cool - bright photos and videos, it works quickly, I thought that I didn’t need a Span, but I do need it and with it I can make changes even on photos from the gallery. Well, the fact that the phone runs on Android is also a plus for me. Clear interface, familiar desktop. Very satisfied!

    Beautiful large screen with fun features including the stylus and camera. I upgrated from my Samsung S10 so it is a great improvement! Takes great night time photos as well. The battery life isn't as long as I hoped for but putting battery saver mode on really helped.

    The best phone EVER!! The Camera: Amazing it has a 200mp, I have been useing it for at least a 3 weeks now. Experience of the phone: I love it has basicaly no lag at all in everything'd the pen is a great addition with somewhat useful features like screenshots and more involved. I would buy for sure as it is better than the 14 pro max iphone from the review I have seen yet to see about the 15pro max.

    Best 1-Hand Tech Ever!

    LOVE this phone. Love the camera. I had decided to go all in on a Pixel 7 Pro, and though it's a good phone and a great camera, the OS was bleak and I had connectivity issues with simple USB. Horrible tech support experience. So, I backed out. Had the luxury of running a clone of "my phone" on the Pixel 7 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra in tandem for about a week. In the end, there was no doubt that the S23 Ultra beat the Pixel 7 Pro by nearly every metric important to me. I'm a photographer, and the S23 camera setup works better for me as well. Hands down, this is the finest technology I've ever owned that I can hold and use with one hand. 2 months later, still in love, and the features continue to reveal themselves. Best Buy, ya. The pics show the power of the camera at various focal lengths. The green circled areas in the control shot are the zoom areas in the other photos. Wow!

    I have tried to hold on to my old phone for a while and have no idea how bad it has gotten. I like that the samsung s23 ultra is bigger, and has an excellent picture quality. The camera is simply amazing! The quality of the pictures is unbelievable and zoom is better than my Canon camera! The phone is super fast and has great sound too.

    I can confidently say that it is an incredible smartphone with some truly amazing features. One of the standout features of the S23 is its camera. With a 108MP primary sensor and 10x optical zoom, it allows for great photos and videos. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 895 processor provides lightning-fast performance, and I've never experienced any lag or delays while multitasking between apps. The 12GB of RAM ensures that even when I have several apps open at once, the phone still runs smoothly.

    LOVE my new Samsung galaxy s23. This phone has everything and then some. The camera quality is amazing. Lightyears better than my previous phone. The stylo pen is easy to use and i love how securely it stays in the phone when not in use. I am learning to paint /color with it ( See attached photo).

    I have owned this smartphone for 2 months now. I used it to make YouTube video’s I love my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra So Much. It does 8K video. I would definitely recommend this to a buyer who needs a smartphone for daily uses to go to work or at home. This is an excellent smartphone with an S Pen in it. I have bought my case too. I have got the 256GB one. This is my daily smartphone for YouTube video’s. Make sure to subscribe to TalHalJa again that is Tal-Hal-Ja on Youtube. Overall a very good Smartphone with 8K video, Battery life, and Fast loading times on the Smartphone.

    I did a lot of reviews on this phone before making my purchase. Show you don't have to do any reviews. That is one of the best phones out if you like androids. And one of the only few that comes with a pen.

    Still holds up well against the latest phones in the market. Only downside is you cant expand memory and I regret buying 256gb instead of the higher trims. Battery is not the best but fast charging helps.
