Samsung Galaxy S23 1 Year Later! In this video, I share with you my in-depth review of the Galaxy S23 after 1 Year and now that the price is discounted, let's discuss if you should go with this or S24! Share your thoughts, questions, and comments below!
Sir, does this phone drop its quality while uploading story or pic/profile pic on social media like Facebook or Instagram?! Please reply sir.. I am waiting for your reply😊😊
Bought it in April,2023. Brilliant, brilliant phone. Glad to have bought the last Samsung compact flagship on Snapdragon😅. Dodged a bullet there. Phone is smooth as ever. Trying the Niagara launcher for the past month, still runs smooth.
@@muhammadrazikani7951 I am going for the s24 I finally decide about 2 days, there are more videos rn about the s24 battery life drain, so I think I'm going for the s24 exynos, also because that one gives 7 years of software and s23 rn 3 years, and I want to do longer dan 4 years with t he phone
@@muhammadrazikani7951 Qualcomm Snapdragon all the way. Samsung has yet to redeem themselves with an Exynos chip that provides equal or better (but that's pretty much unachievable for them) performance to the current generation's flagship from Qualcomm.
@@rajukn9546 I think it's got a great battery life. Last longer than my s21 FE did. It lasts All day with normal use. I spend a lot of time checking Facebook, watch a couple TH-cam videos, pay my bills, etc... Unless you're heavy gaming I don't think it's going to be a problem at all.
@@stopcam.iso_1 Battery is excellent! I charge it only once a day when I'm sleeping. Not sure the exact on screen time but it's way better than my old s21fe which has a bigger battery
The S23U is the first phone I've ever preordered + got on day one and it's honestly been the best phone I've used. It's so incredibly consistent and the battery is still insane. I might keep it for the full 4 years because I don't wanna risk a newer phone being worse lol
You are the reason I bought my S23 and it is the best phone I have used. So thank you for the recommendations, your reviews are really helpfull. For almost a year of usage it only got better and I expect it to improve even further. Just keep making those videos because they are an instant click and like for me.
@@MikeyPops does the phone having heating issue for medium usage (watching TH-cam/TikTok) or gaming for 20+ minutes? a lot of reddit topics on the s23 series were on that problem, I'm contemplating on buying the s23+ 🙇🏻♀️
Having picked up my S23 almost a week ago, I thought I did a mistake not waiting for the S24 unveiling event. But since this year what Samsung did is a "copy/paste" job, I can say I was right. I saved a lot of money too. Thank you for the effort, Nick.❤️
I like the S24's slightly boxier design a little more than the S23's...But I don't think that's worth 200 more lol. Even tho, I could get the 256GB version of the S24 with some personal discounts from Samsung for only 100 euros more. Then the S24 becomes more interesting.
What you should have done , is to pick up that phone after the release of the new model, that way you could have gotten the phone with a reduced price.... So you have made a mistake in that regard
Been using S23 from March 2023 and it still fleels like as new as it was on the first day. Snappy, appropriate size dan weight. Will be riding this phone untill new more advanced tech comes out
I have just ordered the s23 because of the chip the s24 comes with a exynos chip and all s23 comes with the snapdragon so I have gone with something that has been tried and tested
just got an S23 this week to replace my - drum roll - S8+. previous phone much bigger so I was a little disappointed at first, but I am liking the S23 more and more, especially after watching this video. thanks for the great review.
@@deepakpanchaal I've been using it since April, the battery is still perfect. I just came back from a 24h shift with 20% left, not using any Wi-Fi, only 4/5G, listened to a lot of music on breaks and scrolled on social media a lot. (I left home with 90% battery).
same as me bro i decide not to buy S23Fe or S24 for only 1 Reason is "Exynos" cuz i got bad experience from my old Galaxy A51 i know Exynos is now have improved but i prefer Snapdragon than Exynos
Watching on my tab s8+, I got the s23 as well after using the a52 since it's release date, I got my tablet mainly for school and for watching movies and videos at home but it's what got me into the flagship hype and I will never switch back to midrange devices if I'm honest
I bought the Galaxy S23+ on march 2023 because the Ultra is too big for me and the S23 is too small. It doesn't even feel like almost a year has passed, it's still buttery smooth running on Android 14 OneUI 6.0. I wanted to Upgrade to the S24+, but Samsung has put Exynos chip instead of the Snapdragon 8gen3 on the S24 and the S24+ models outside of USA and Canada. I couldn't be more happier as I no longer want to upgrade anymore, instead, I wanna keep using my S23+ for another 3~4 Years (as long as Samsung supports it) Highly disappointed by Samsung's cheap Exynos move this year and I believe this will keep many consumers from getting the S24 and the S24+ this year. Excellent Video Nick. 💓
Yeah, they really downgraded the processor and seemed to just add the ai stuff. I don't see myself using all those features, and samsung has always been hit or miss with me.
I got the S23 around september and no regrets. The phone is awesome and supersmooth and customizablity with theme park is amazing. The phone is almost perfect for my needs.
@@suhritareddy I do, since one ui 6.1 you've gotten almost all AI features from the S24s and the lock screen widgets. So is basically a cheaper S24 with no lack of quality
as a person who currently using s23 for 6 months its a great phone. dont buy s24 buy s23 plus better batery and big screen . need a small phone buy s24 or s23 (have money then go for s24 snapdragon dont buy xynos s24)
Bueno, la verdad no entendí nada ya que nose inglés pero al ver los comentarios en inglés y traducir a español la experiencia del Samsung s23 después de un año sigue funcionando muy bien gracias por el video nuevo suscriptor.
i have s 23 and it's awesome... You never think that screen isn't enough, battery doesn't last long, or camera isn't flagship. the phone's a beast. Samsung has rolled AI in this model in India too. so there's literally no difference b/w this and s24 now...
@@stopcam.iso_1 for a compact phone it's really great.. I mean I charge my phone daily upto only 80 percent (It preserves battery's life) every morning.. I watch reels on insta, watch anime, do some chatting and other normal stuff, I played some medium weight games on it some time before and the phone would easily last me all day and I would reach home at around 33 percent of battery. i.e 80 - 33 = 47 % and almost 3 hrs screen on time... which is great.... if you charge your phone to 100 % and do medium tasks, the phone easily gives 5 - 5.5 hrs of SOT... the screen is awesome and the phone's smooth....
@@Jkc_ It's is awesome... Same as an Iphone... may be better.. The battery easily lasts a day... you will need to charge only once if you are a medium user... Also the phone supports fast charging so 60% charges in around 35 - 40 mins..
There's ppl talking on Reddit that the quality of pics on the s23 has been degraded by software by Samsung bc the s24 was coming out. There are people showing pics before and after the latest oneUI update recently. Have you noticed any changes in camera quality when you first got the phone and now?
Currently on S23 since August.. considered going to S24+ just for the Qhd bigger screen.. but here in India it runs on Exynos.. so finally decided to let the S24 series pass. The S23 runs like a breeze with 1.5 days battery backup with my usage. Personally I feel the S24 series is a namesake upgrade..even the s24 ultra is a minor upgrade compared to the 23ultra... please dont fall for the ads and publicity from Samsung. Save your money for the S25!🤔
@@nitish.7042 with that kind of usage.. which is my actual usage pattern, I easily get more than a day... I charge at 6am everyday.. left with 30-40% at 6am next day..
I just ordered the S24, after spending 5 years or so with the S9+. I was ready for the upgrade and the AI features are extremely dope! No regrets on my order.
This is by far one of the best phones that i've had. In hand feel, the screen to body ratio, everything. If not for the guaranteed 50% discount promotion when you trade in an s23 to an S24 series, I wouldve stayed. But getting the s24u on the 12/512 variant with a massive massive discount is such a no brainer for me. I only paid about 18% of the original price of the s24u 12/512 with a free watch that I'll sell to close out the 18% payment of the total.
I primarily want to use my Samsung S23 to record talking-head videos in Pro Video mode, but I’ve encountered a persistent issue across all modes and focus settings I’ve tried. I've tested every option I can think of, including external apps like BlackMagic Camera and MotionCam, but the problem remains. Here’s what happens: even with a slight movement-like shifting my position or gesturing with my hands-the background and objects in it start to shake and distort, as though the tripod shook or there was an earthquake. You’ll see in the video below that while a person in the frame stays perfectly in focus, everything else (walls, floor, curtains, and objects) shifts and shakes in different directions. I’ve tried updating the software, factory resetting, using safe mode, cleaning the lenses, and adjusting my professional lighting setup, but nothing has helped. Additional details: I tested with both stabilization on and off, auto-tracking on and off. I adjusted the FPS and bitrate settings. I tried every lens (front and rear), and the issue occurs on all of them. I experimented with different focus settings (center, multi, and manual), but no improvement. Has anyone else faced this issue? Any insights on possible fixes or explanations for why this might be happening would be greatly appreciated!
Upgraded to s24+ from s22 regular but returned it and gona go with s23. Dont want to go through exynos horror again where i cant use my phone outside in sumer. Snapdragon everyday. Although i admit the s24+ was beautiful and felt perfect in my hand.
I bought my S23 half a year ago. No plans to upgrade... unless Samsung releases a smaller phone (I love small phones). Everything that I want is packed in here. No need to upgrade to S24, especially that it has the disgusting Exynos chip here in the UK. Great video!
Great video. Funny, I've waiting several monthsher to get the s24 but doing a strong comparison for the last couple days I really think I prefer the s23 especially since I don't really care about the AI features. I think the s23 is nicer overall. Better look and design. The black color is nicer on the s23 than the black color on the s24. Also I like the round corners and the round edges on the frame better. I know the width is the same but for some reason this phone just seems thinner which I prefer. I know these vessels are a little larger but I don't think it's a bad thing because I can't reach the edge of the screen anyways especially once you have a case on.
@detroitMC313 I have the S23 too as well, and I love the phantom black over the onyx black. I remember them having the presentation of introducing the phantom black and wish they kept the colors.
For Europeans S23 is a golden gem just because it got Snapdragon. S24 is back to Exynos. Imagine that S23 runs about 15% longer than S24 while costing less, so previous gen phone is significantly better than current gen... this is ridiculous! Samsung really loves f*ing us here in EU 🥲
People complain about not having more than 256gb storage, but I can't imagine needing more than that. It's probably more than enough for the vast majority of people.
The real deal about this now is that it got the 6.1 update including all AI features of the S24. Having that with the Snapdragon makes it even more worth the price compared to the S24
S23 from yesterday. Such a powerfull device. Android iPhone. No bad word at all. Lots of configuration, lots of functions (i used iphone for 2 years and my latest android was 9). Huge progress in Android.
Just picked up a new sealed box S23 to replace my older S21 at half of the original retail price when launched. Pretty happy with it. I normally purchase a new phone a year after so that I can get better price with a stable and optimized software. I'll probably look for S25 or S26 for the next upgrade.
What you didn't mention is that you can trade-in your s23 for a s24 with big discount. Also with the s24 you can get a code for free samsung galaxy watch 6. Not to mention discounts for students and all the other extra's. I'm getting a s24+ very cheap. S24+ this years gets Quad HD+ display like ultra and 12GB RAM. Not many people know this. Last thing I'll say is that a S23 entry level with 128GB is actually pretty bad. Since the OneUI takes up alot of space. High quality pics, vids and games these days also take up many gigs. So please don't pick up that one.....
Yesterday Im choosing between s23 or s24 and ended up in s23...why? imo this is the best for the bucks to buy now even this is a 1year old now..in my country (Philippines) Exynos version is to be used so this gives me the go signal to push to s23 lol.. much cheaper now and not so far enough with the specs LITERALLY! only the AI features and Design is for me is the changes (but AI features will coming to s23 series so its a win-win situation for me). Well in my use cases im not much on the social media posting and/or camera and video usage much..I just want a phone that function well with freedom of customization. PS: Im an IOS user for the past 7-8yrs. I gave up my iphone 13pro for this... Honestly this is the best time to buy this phone now given that this phone will still have 3-4yrs max of OS support and by the time it is outdated then it is time to go for S24 LOL since s24 will still have remaining 3yrs of OS update LOL!
All those people are stuck in exynos 990, this exynos 2400 is very great, there are several battery drain videos on yt rn, it did really great, I have an old Samsung a70 and I'm gonna buy the s24, also because it has 7 years of software updates and s23 3 years rn and I want to do longer then 4 years with a phone
Bro I'm so confused between buying s23 and used iphone 13 pro, I really need a reliable camera and battery backup, i just don't care if it's android or ios cause mostly I've used stock androids and don't wanna customize a lot..which one do you suggest ? And also heard that social media like insta and fb often work better and can upload more high quality photos on 13 pro than s23 ,,how much of that is true?
Was in a BB other day and compared s23 to S24 and 24 plus. Immediately noticed that s24 display was washed out on both. Even the wallpaper seemed to highlight that. Spoke to the in-house Sammy rep and he said that was true. Although he later walked it back. So basically walked out liking the S23 as its display was much more vibrant. Isn’t that display a main reason to buy a Galaxy. Just wondering your thoughts about the display vibrancy as compared between the s23 and s24.
I've just ordered this one after my Fold 3's flex cable started to act up and showed me why Folds only make sense if you are planning to trade it in when the new one comes out. Hoping to have this phone for many, many years without issues. The CPU seems to be solid in terms of both power & heat management, OS updates are good, Samsung offers solid cameras and features.
Cracked my s22u and bought the s23 for $300 on BackMarket. So far worth it. More pocketable, feels fast, battery is okay for a small phone. Speakers are ehh
Great vid Nick. I have a 15 pro max and an S23+ and I love the s23+ but imo it’s been a little bit laggy at times. Not really that bad but it isn’t the smoothest. I’m excited that the s24+ has 12GB and hopefully should help with the smoothness
I noticed this too. However I decided to go back to button navigation after many years of swipe gestures, and the UI feels s,other with button navigation. It's not a ram issue, it's optimization.
I have had my S23+ for a year, I am very happy with it so far. My only complaint would be the zoom quality seems really bad. Maybe it's me. Am I missing something?
Upgrading to an S23 after my A52s has become sad over time - broken screen, sluggish performance... Well deserved upgrade. Hoping the new one lasts 4-5 years!
Gotta say I agree with all the points mentioned, just a decent solid phone and battery life especially if upgrading from the S21 like I had, the battery life is much better.
Watching on my year old s23. Runs absolutely perfectly like new rapid. Im disappointed that samsung are pushing exynos on the s24 this year. 8m very happy with my s23 and ip 13 mini. The mini is still my favourite.
Thank you for your video gonna take it in the next month. The 8 gen 2 is really worth than the exynos things on s24. And the most important things is the price point, just so sweet deal in 2024.
8 gen 2 really improved android devices. I switched to 13 pro max as I got tired of poor battery life and degradation. S23 plus has redeemed android for me though and my favorite android device and much better battery over my s20fe
@@wheelyflac I’m sorry, how is the 8 Gen 2 and the new 8 Gen 3 better than the A17 Pro, asking this in curiosity I have no intention to be rude im will go get an S24 Ultra 1 TB and will move to it from my 15 Pro Max 1 TB if you tell me
Just got my s23, my first flagship phone. I used it for just a while and i felt that it was a bit warm going to 41°C and the battery was draining a bit fast. Does it need time to optimize the battery?
@667nikhil Dark mode will always help a little bit too. Using mobile data always makes the phone get hotter compared to wi-fi. I've been having the same problem on my S10e. I don't have Wi-Fi anymore so I've been using mobile and it's always hot. Have to get Wi-Fi asap. Trying to upgrade this week. I think I prefer the s23 over the s24.
Needed a second line for when I travel and didn't want to pay for another iphone pro so I got this new for $325. I honestly like it a lot and there's so much I can do with it that I'm thinking of keeping it for a while.

Currently on S23 since August.. considered going to S24+ just for the Qhd bigger screen.. but here in India it runs on Exynos.. so finally decided to let the S24 series pass. The S23 runs like a breeze with 1.5 days battery backup with my usage. Personally I feel the S24 series is a namesake upgrade..even the s24 ultra is a minor upgrade compared to the 23ultra...
please dont fall for the ads and publicity from Samsung. Save your money for the S25!🤔
Hows the real battery backup i.e. normal usage in home and in office, like normal calls, whatsapp, youtube and some other stuff. Not heavy usage.
Theres is rumor all s25 variant will be using exynos 😂
1.5 days is too much
@@nitish.7042 with that kind of usage.. which is my actual usage pattern, I easily get more than a day... I charge at 6am everyday.. left with 30-40% at 6am next day..
I just ordered the S24, after spending 5 years or so with the S9+. I was ready for the upgrade and the AI features are extremely dope! No regrets on my order.
Ai is coming to the 23 soon the only flagship can handle it
@@paliewallie what are the AI features
Still using my S21 5G with the 888 still fast and superb. Although android 15 might be it's last update.
Same here, will go with 25 series next year
I just got one of these so far I'm loving!
Which colour is the best?. I'm thinking of black or cream maybe..
I'm about to get one this week upgrade from s10e phone lol.
This is by far one of the best phones that i've had. In hand feel, the screen to body ratio, everything. If not for the guaranteed 50% discount promotion when you trade in an s23 to an S24 series, I wouldve stayed. But getting the s24u on the 12/512 variant with a massive massive discount is such a no brainer for me. I only paid about 18% of the original price of the s24u 12/512 with a free watch that I'll sell to close out the 18% payment of the total.
It looks sooooooooo small in your hands!
Looks like it would be a 5.8 inch in mine.
Great review.
Awesome content watching with my 23 plus bro
There is any heat issue on s23+ & it's battery life Bro?
Just bought one for 579€ (Spain)! What a bargan, next to the new 1300€ phones, which are slightly better! 🎉❤
Habibi i bought it for 368 dollars 😂😂... it's arriving today
I primarily want to use my Samsung S23 to record talking-head videos in Pro Video mode, but I’ve encountered a persistent issue across all modes and focus settings I’ve tried. I've tested every option I can think of, including external apps like BlackMagic Camera and MotionCam, but the problem remains.
Here’s what happens: even with a slight movement-like shifting my position or gesturing with my hands-the background and objects in it start to shake and distort, as though the tripod shook or there was an earthquake. You’ll see in the video below that while a person in the frame stays perfectly in focus, everything else (walls, floor, curtains, and objects) shifts and shakes in different directions.
I’ve tried updating the software, factory resetting, using safe mode, cleaning the lenses, and adjusting my professional lighting setup, but nothing has helped.
Additional details:
I tested with both stabilization on and off, auto-tracking on and off.
I adjusted the FPS and bitrate settings.
I tried every lens (front and rear), and the issue occurs on all of them.
I experimented with different focus settings (center, multi, and manual), but no improvement.
Has anyone else faced this issue? Any insights on possible fixes or explanations for why this might be happening would be greatly appreciated!
Upgraded to s24+ from s22 regular but returned it and gona go with s23.
Dont want to go through exynos horror again where i cant use my phone outside in sumer.
Snapdragon everyday.
Although i admit the s24+ was beautiful and felt perfect in my hand.
Still waiting s23's price drops a bit more. So i will buy one before summer
What's the price
13500 czk or 540 euro for the new S23 in Czech Rep.
Did you buy it?
@@mikael9431 i've already bought xiaomi 14 haha
Thank you so much form your thorough and honest opinion. I just ordered one, thanks to your video. Truly appreciate your hard work!
Glad this video helped you in your research, and hope it works out for you!
Just got the S23, really enjoying it so far 😊
I waited for the s24 come out but I think I'm going to get the s23 as well. Lol.
I bought my S23 half a year ago. No plans to upgrade... unless Samsung releases a smaller phone (I love small phones). Everything that I want is packed in here. No need to upgrade to S24, especially that it has the disgusting Exynos chip here in the UK.
Great video!
Brought it last week ❤
@@Vicky-sl4tc so how it is, what u think of the phone?
What's about the battery and heating control??? please tell
Battery lasts all day, the phone doesn't have heating issues.
👍 Agreed, I got the s23 128GB 2 weeks back for 510$ here in India with credit card discount and my vivo iqoo 7 trade in option 😁
How's battery backup?
@@serialchillaxer 7 hrs SOT on an average on medium usage
@@debojit.chowdhury🙌👍
Great video. Funny, I've waiting several monthsher to get the s24 but doing a strong comparison for the last couple days I really think I prefer the s23 especially since I don't really care about the AI features. I think the s23 is nicer overall. Better look and design. The black color is nicer on the s23 than the black color on the s24. Also I like the round corners and the round edges on the frame better. I know the width is the same but for some reason this phone just seems thinner which I prefer. I know these vessels are a little larger but I don't think it's a bad thing because I can't reach the edge of the screen anyways especially once you have a case on.
@detroitMC313 I have the S23 too as well, and I love the phantom black over the onyx black. I remember them having the presentation of introducing the phantom black and wish they kept the colors.
My base s23 is still going like I got it yesterday, using since launch 💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥
Glad to hear it's still going strong!
For Europeans S23 is a golden gem just because it got Snapdragon. S24 is back to Exynos. Imagine that S23 runs about 15% longer than S24 while costing less, so previous gen phone is significantly better than current gen... this is ridiculous! Samsung really loves f*ing us here in EU 🥲
Not only EU bud, the snapdragon versión is only avaliable in china and usa.
Also in india bruh
@@Harzexe Ew is EU it's definitely a better option for EU markets. Exynos processors run hot and are problematic.
Can't agree more brother 😂
That was the main reason for me to buy a s23 over s24...
Snapdragon over Exynos anyday
Just bought s23 !! 🎉
I love my S23 my favorite 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
People complain about not having more than 256gb storage, but I can't imagine needing more than that. It's probably more than enough for the vast majority of people.
For real! I have over 7,000 pictures and videos saved on my phone and have only used up half of that memory.
Is 128gb enough?? Plz suggest
The main selling point for me is that s23 is the only one with snapdragon and not exynos
Both s22 and s24 is using exynos
if u are in the us then all of the models are using snapdragon.
@@lyhthegreati live in Asia so my S22 & S24 Still pair Exynos how sadly 🥲
@@maarerabagodbra2515 i think the ultra is using snapdragon?
The real deal about this now is that it got the 6.1 update including all AI features of the S24. Having that with the Snapdragon makes it even more worth the price compared to the S24
Watching from a s23 now on day 1 for me. Just WOW. what a device
How's it worth buying
Still worth buying now?
S23 from yesterday. Such a powerfull device. Android iPhone. No bad word at all. Lots of configuration, lots of functions (i used iphone for 2 years and my latest android was 9). Huge progress in Android.
Great video Nick 👍🏻
Still don't regret pre-ordering this phone a year ago and getting the galaxy buds 2 pro as a preorder bonus
Great video, What font are you using on this device?
Default font from Samsung
What are your thoughts about the ram plus are you using it?
I bought the S23 a year ago because of snapdragon chip here in europe. We usually get Exynos :(
How's the battery life?
I currently have the s23 ultra, hands down best phone I've ever owned!!
I'm gonna wait for a very sweet deal and buy the cream color one! How much does the OS take in terms of system storage?
Same i loved the cream one will get anytime soon
Just picked up a new sealed box S23 to replace my older S21 at half of the original retail price when launched. Pretty happy with it. I normally purchase a new phone a year after so that I can get better price with a stable and optimized software. I'll probably look for S25 or S26 for the next upgrade.
How's 23 would u recommend
@@suhritareddy worth every penny. Absolutely recommended if one doesn't wanna spend more on the newer S24.
Legit video, thank you!
Glad it helped!
@@nickackermanchannel How did you wear S23 so that it has no scratches and looks like new?
@@nickackermanchannelSometime i experience when im typing the space button did not work?someone experience like that?
Do you still recommend S23 rather than S24 today ?
@@帥終帥 if snapdragon, yes. Otherwise no
Yes.
Just bought my s23 2 days ago and I thought it's a wrong move since I want to get iphone 14. Thanks for this review!
Nice video bro ❤
Thank you for reivew.
What you didn't mention is that you can trade-in your s23 for a s24 with big discount. Also with the s24 you can get a code for free samsung galaxy watch 6. Not to mention discounts for students and all the other extra's. I'm getting a s24+ very cheap. S24+ this years gets Quad HD+ display like ultra and 12GB RAM. Not many people know this.
Last thing I'll say is that a S23 entry level with 128GB is actually pretty bad. Since the OneUI takes up alot of space. High quality pics, vids and games these days also take up many gigs. So please don't pick up that one.....
Yes I did mention that towards the end of the video.
I recently bought a case from UAG and I can tell you they're the same exact size and that the case can fit on my S23.
which one is better, Snapdragon on S23 or Exynos on S24?
Yesterday Im choosing between s23 or s24 and ended up in s23...why? imo this is the best for the bucks to buy now even this is a 1year old now..in my country (Philippines) Exynos version is to be used so this gives me the go signal to push to s23 lol.. much cheaper now and not so far enough with the specs LITERALLY! only the AI features and Design is for me is the changes (but AI features will coming to s23 series so its a win-win situation for me). Well in my use cases im not much on the social media posting and/or camera and video usage much..I just want a phone that function well with freedom of customization. PS: Im an IOS user for the past 7-8yrs. I gave up my iphone 13pro for this... Honestly this is the best time to buy this phone now given that this phone will still have 3-4yrs max of OS support and by the time it is outdated then it is time to go for S24 LOL since s24 will still have remaining 3yrs of OS update LOL!
All those people are stuck in exynos 990, this exynos 2400 is very great, there are several battery drain videos on yt rn, it did really great, I have an old Samsung a70 and I'm gonna buy the s24, also because it has 7 years of software updates and s23 3 years rn and I want to do longer then 4 years with a phone

@@R.AlicszI'm "going to" buy s24 256gb
Bro I'm so confused between buying s23 and used iphone 13 pro,
I really need a reliable camera and battery backup, i just don't care if it's android or ios cause mostly I've used stock androids and don't wanna customize a lot..which one do you suggest ? And also heard that social media like insta and fb often work better and can upload more high quality photos on 13 pro than s23 ,,how much of that is true?
@@R.Alicsz HK version 256gb dualsim...36k Bnew Sealed.
Should I wait to pick up an S23 after the S25 releases in a month? Currently rocking S21
Was in a BB other day and compared s23 to S24 and 24 plus. Immediately noticed that s24 display was washed out on both. Even the wallpaper seemed to highlight that. Spoke to the in-house Sammy rep and he said that was true. Although he later walked it back. So basically walked out liking the S23 as its display was much more vibrant. Isn’t that display a main reason to buy a Galaxy. Just wondering your thoughts about the display vibrancy as compared between the s23 and s24.
Exactly, bro I also compared hand to hand S23 and S24 the display on S23 was looking way sharp and better and that's really TRUE,
How is the video quality?
I want to buy this one for videograohy.
Very detailed and noiseless video with fast autofocus.
In my experience, the quality is great. You can record in 8k my dude, this is incredible for such a small phone lol.
I've just ordered this one after my Fold 3's flex cable started to act up and showed me why Folds only make sense if you are planning to trade it in when the new one comes out. Hoping to have this phone for many, many years without issues. The CPU seems to be solid in terms of both power & heat management, OS updates are good, Samsung offers solid cameras and features.
What is the font you are using in this S23?
I have a samsung galaxy s23 and I love it
Copped mine about 2 weeks ago in that awesome deep green colour, all I can say is that this phone is a gem. Upgraded from my A51
Cracked my s22u and bought the s23 for $300 on BackMarket. So far worth it. More pocketable, feels fast, battery is okay for a small phone. Speakers are ehh
How's the SOT ?
@@stopcam.iso_1 It's great, lasts a full day without issues.
I pick s 23 still because it has a better display than s24 and better performance because s24 is exynos version in our country😢
Hi nice videos there!! iPhone 15 or s23 ? Which one to choose? I am using iPhone 11 as of currently
Great vid Nick. I have a 15 pro max and an S23+ and I love the s23+ but imo it’s been a little bit laggy at times. Not really that bad but it isn’t the smoothest. I’m excited that the s24+ has 12GB and hopefully should help with the smoothness
I noticed this too. However I decided to go back to button navigation after many years of swipe gestures, and the UI feels s,other with button navigation. It's not a ram issue, it's optimization.
Did you try by disabling RAM Plus? That feature causes stutters in the UI and apps sometimes
Sometime i experience when im typing the space button did not work?someone experience like that?
@@GElectr0n I turned it down to 4GB, and it's smoother now but yeah I guess try turning it all the way off
Just bought my s23 😊
Glad I bought s23 2days back I was really happy for Selection of this beast❤
Would u recommend buyung
@@suhritareddy yes i also bought it 2 days back
I have had my S23+ for a year, I am very happy with it so far. My only complaint would be the zoom quality seems really bad. Maybe it's me. Am I missing something?
S23+ is out of my budget i wanted the pls version but I'll have to get the base s23
IM SO EXCITEDDD IM GETTING IT TOMORROW!!!
Upgrading to an S23 after my A52s has become sad over time - broken screen, sluggish performance... Well deserved upgrade. Hoping the new one lasts 4-5 years!
Gotta say I agree with all the points mentioned, just a decent solid phone and battery life especially if upgrading from the S21 like I had, the battery life is much better.
Can you share the link of the tempered glass used?
Watching on my year old s23. Runs absolutely perfectly like new rapid. Im disappointed that samsung are pushing exynos on the s24 this year.
8m very happy with my s23 and ip 13 mini. The mini is still my favourite.
How do you find the battery life on them?(ip 13 mini vs s23). I want a small phone. Thanks in advance
@burari123 it's very close. It's about the same. Maybe 6 to 7 hours SOT.
The mini charges faster. Way faster.
Do u reccomended ip13 mini more?
@@abrarlmao for me. Yes. It's my favourite
Thank you for your video gonna take it in the next month. The 8 gen 2 is really worth than the exynos things on s24. And the most important things is the price point, just so sweet deal in 2024.
Exactly, the Galaxy S23 is a beast!!💪
8 gen 2 really improved android devices. I switched to 13 pro max as I got tired of poor battery life and degradation. S23 plus has redeemed android for me though and my favorite android device and much better battery over my s20fe
Improved? Your iPhone has way more GHZ of clock speed bro how can you be so desperate to your iPhone
@@wheelyflac I’m sorry, how is the 8 Gen 2 and the new 8 Gen 3 better than the A17 Pro, asking this in curiosity I have no intention to be rude im will go get an S24 Ultra 1 TB and will move to it from my 15 Pro Max 1 TB if you tell me
Please do a S23 vs S24 Camera Comparison. Overall comparison would be great.
Watching on my Samsung Galaxy S23. No regrets at all. And with One UI6. 1 the AI features are here.
Battery life has been great
@@Uty-yo9np what's your screen on time ?
That’s my next phone even I like straight edges better on s24 but snapdragon wins me over this and a better screen.
Agreed!
Just got my s23, my first flagship phone. I used it for just a while and i felt that it was a bit warm going to 41°C and the battery was draining a bit fast. Does it need time to optimize the battery?
Yes for sure, it needs to adapt to your style and that takes like 2 weeks i believe.
it always gets warm (especially when using mobile data at high internet trafficking times or when the room temp is high)
Go to device care- performance profile then switch to light. It fixed the battery drain without sacrificing performance one bit for me.
@667nikhil Dark mode will always help a little bit too. Using mobile data always makes the phone get hotter compared to wi-fi. I've been having the same problem on my S10e. I don't have Wi-Fi anymore so I've been using mobile and it's always hot. Have to get Wi-Fi asap.
Trying to upgrade this week. I think I prefer the s23 over the s24.
