    The thing I will always respect about Flossy reviews is that you always give us the real world application alongside the tech nerd application. I find a lot of reviewers struggle finding that balance coz they always focus on some of the bells and whistles that the average user won't care for. But to be able to have both that aspect as well as the real world day to day use aspects shows the full picture 🙏🏿

  • @kokonatryrygoo
    @kokonatryrygoo ปีที่แล้ว +63

    Agreed! I don't understand how the prices on these phones keep going up but we continue to get less. For what they charge, these phones should come as a complete package (i.e. case, screen protector, dongle, charger, cable, extended memory capable, removable battery).

    For me the S23 Ultra was a big upgrade just for the battery alone because I went from having 0% to 10% battery life left when leaving work.....To having 30% to 50% battery life left when leaving work..... And the standby time alone has improved tremendously

    • @Ravp90
      @Ravp90 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Same. I'm in the UK and assume everyone outside north america sees this as a huge upgrade for that snapdragon chip and its efficiency.
      Using the same apps on my s22u, the phone used to get noticably warm, on android auto or when charging it would get very warm and games would stutter or drop fps quite clearly, the battery lasted 4-5hrs max screen on time, honestly I regretted preordering. Oh and emulation of ps2 games was basically a non-starter.
      On the s23u, none of the above is a concern. One day I took my phone off charge at 5pm and forgot to charge it overnight, with my normal use it was down to 20% when I charged it the following night at 11pm. It lasted well over 24hrs. And no games stutter at all, phone doesnt even get hot, I can leave it in my pocket when I drive and use android auto and youtube music for long drives too.
      This phone is an upgrade for us. Its a gamechanger. I just dont know if I love samsung for doing it or hate them for leaving us with an inferior product for so long.

    WOW what else can I say that hasn’t been said about Flossy’s videos? From start to finish this review was packed with humour, wit and clarity. Also he speaks the language that ‘ordinary’ people understand. Other top reviewers seriously need to watch Floss’s reviews and take notes. But, then again, no one else can pull it off the way he does. Anyone could regurgitate specs and benchmarks which, tbh, I find repetitive and boring. I wouldn’t worry about the video being long as he can pretty much talk all day and his audience will still be captivated. I’m more of an Apple/iOS person due to being so steeped in the Apple ecosystem but I think most people will agree the S23 Ultra has completely raised the bar when it comes to phone design/functionality/ergonomics etc. Thanks for keeping your reviews original and your audience informed and entertained.

    I just got this phone on Friday, and I love it. I had the 22 Ultra with t-mobile, but they've been screwing up since the Sprint merge. I switched to AT&T and got the 23 Ultra. I was an iPhone user for years and wasn't impressed with the 14 Pro Max. I only had the 22 Ultra for a couple of months, but I LOVED it. I definitely feel like the 23 Ultra is a great upgrade. The biometrics work much better than the previous model for sure.

That's why so many people have been waiting for it. Cheers Floss.

    1:55 - like I mentioned in an earlier vid, mine was definitely an upgrade (Note 5 to the S23 Ultra). Definitely worth the price and freebies.
    8:44 - I have both the iPhone 13 Pro Max (upgraded from the 6S Plus) and, now, the S23 Ultra.
    11:13 - #1 on my list is the S-Pen being on the "wrong side".
    13:35 - you are ABSOLUTELY right. The packaging sucks a$$.
    14:42 - did you see the European unboxing vids? Theirs was nicer and were like Apple's.
    14:50 - the way I hollered!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
    15:43 - I ended up buying the 45W Power Adapter with Cable separately the other day on sale for $30 😑
    Now, in all fairness and UNLIKE Apple, they did offer $150 in freebies as a part of the launch. Technically, they didn't have to do that. I seized that opportunity to get the accessories I needed, with the exception of the 45W adaptor.
    22:47 - I agree with the expandable memory - on ALL models allow an additional 128GB.
    37:11 - ummm...I'm able to use my [Apple] wireless MagSafe charger to charge my S23 Ultra - with AND without its leather case.

Surprisingly there is not much difference in size between the phones with their cases on. I like the Samsung eco system. For storage I have a couple Samsung T7 1TB, and one is touch. I also have the SanDisk Ultra USB Type-C memory sticks. I remember buying my old S8 and that came with earphones a couple of dongles the power adapter and USB-C cable. The only thing I added separately was the case and microSD memory card. The S20FE at least had the charger in the box and pre installed screen protector. Still the Ultra covers my needs.

    I miss the ir blaster on Samsung phones too! Glad to hear I'm not the only one! Expandable storage also never should have been taken away. We understand it may not be as fast as the internal storage but give the customer the option to use if needed!

      Same, just upgraded from Note 9 to S23U. There were quite a few things that I was impressed with such as the battery life and processing speed. I no longer need to have battery anxiety and can play games on my phone smoothly without the phone overheating. Though, there's some things that I don't like about the camera like the focus at close range, and the auto editing done to the photos after taking it.

    Great review I had to check it out since I have S22 and love it but got the screen green bleed and since I have the warranty going to go Fold Z5 or S23. Your review was perfect going with the S23. I saw your review of the Fold. Your review helped me on the S22 and it is helping me with the S23. Figure why not get the S23 since warranty paying for it. Keep up the great work.
    If folks not sure what I meant about the green bleed. My S22 strangely just went green screen. Kept fading to green color then that stopped and a green thin line appeared from a bleed drop or splash or whatever its called at the curve edge. The phone works fine just when you go to "white" background pages you see that thin line horizontally across the screen.

I did have 128 gigs on my old phone and I barely used half of that. Perhaps a little more storage then I need but in case I need it it's there for me to use.

    Awesome vid Floss! Cheers for all the work that went into preparing for it & presenting it. You're the only one who'd be able to hold my attention for nearly 2hrs on a phone that is just an update from the one I'm watching on (S22U). Agree re the wishlist. My perfect S24U would have the headphone jack, expandable storage, a retained physical sim, a 360 deg photo option like the iPhone has, magsafe, that camera magnifier thingy (which for me & my wonky eyes would be extremely useful & not just a toy), a flat screen to allow for cases with raised side bezels & easier to use screen protectors, the on-screen notification led, & some sort of change to the design that stops the edges of the camera trapping dust. And thevIR blaster for those who want that. Glad they improved the speakers bc they're rubbish on the S22U. Would also like to see a charger & basic case in the box. We have a crap selection of rugged/extra protective cases in NZ so I always buy on Amazon. It can take several weeks, sometimes even longer for cases to arrive from the US, so *something* to tide you over is helpful.

    But then when he recommends iPhone to the Samsung Knights, it's like.... It's just good, it's dope, thrust me... Ecosystem and such(which is second to Samsung BTW but still).

    Thank you so much for your honest review, Floss! I first found your channel over a year ago when I purchased my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 (in which I just traded it in for the S23 Ultra in the Cream color). Being a Samsung Galaxy Note fan and having had the Note 2, 5, 8 and 10+, I decided to give the Fold3 a try when there were talks of the Note discontinuing. It was a cool phone until the inner screen cracked due to normal use and charging because the phone would get hot so I was glad to trade it in and pre-order the S23 Ultra. Been rocking this phone since 2/14/23 and I absolutely LOVE it! I had missed my Note 10+ when having the Fold3 but now THIS S23 ULTRA is 🔥 I'm so glad I got it. Like you and many other Note fans I'm used to the S-Pen being on the right so it is one of my gripes since they decided to put it on the left side, LOL. Also, when you talked about the S-Pen features, it made me think about how the S-Pen can be used to take pictures and videos. I actually never used the feature on my previous Note but I did try it on the S23 Ultra and I like it. So for those who are completely new to Samsung, don't forget to check this cool feature out! Once again, thank you Floss for your review and your time to make this video of quality instead of just throwing a video out there just for views.❤️ Love the entertainment, love White Shoes, and keep doing what you're doing. You're great at it! Have a fantastic Friday!
