With my S23 Ultra, I prefer shooting with the pro video mode to its normal video. I think its quality is way better and controlled. Once you understand how to use pro video, trust me, you'll appreciate the S23 Ultra's camera capabilities more.
Yes, the POV camera section was a great addition to this video. It made your Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra revisit video much more immersive and engaging. You did a great job! 👏🏼
I'm sad I didn't wait for the S23 Ultra and picked the S22 Ultra. I'm looking forward to get the S24 Ultra that will be even more amazing with the upgraded Zoom lenses cuz the current ones have a very bad low light performance due to the small sensor size.
Thanks for the review! Unfortunately the s23 ultra is out of my budget as a student. However! im expecting pixel 7 in couple of days, it was your Pixel 7 Review who made me choose it, keep up the work!
After much consideration, needing a new phone I opted for the S23 Ultra over the S24 Ultra for 2 main reasons. Firstly, they ditched the 10x optical zoom for a 5 and the Raw files on the S24 are tiny. These are backward steps in my opinion. I simply can't wait to get to grips and learn how to shoot with it properly. Yes your right, its a genuine thing of beauty and the build quality, exceptional.
I'm looking to get the S23 ULTRA as my very first Samsung galaxy smartphone device next month. Cause I really loving the style model of the phone itself.
I can't wait for the release of Samsung S24 Ultra in the near future...Hope samsung can fix their main issues and problem that found on S23 Ultra before ✌️
I have a s10e here and looking to upgrade. I have my own camera but looking to get a more than capable dslr "style" camera on my phone aswell. Would you get a pixel 8 pro or the s23 ultra?
It's such a shame you can't turn off over-processing on 12mpxl photos. I do prefer how 50 or 200 photos look like but hate the file size. I'm assuming Samsung's default photo snap is when you release the finger from the snap button because if you click and hold, you'll start recording
Sorry my question is about 23 ultra I bought s23 ultra today.its still one ui 5.1.what do u recommend shall I uptade to 6.0 or wait for 6.1? I ve heard tones of complains about battery life.thank you
I updated mine straight after the software went live, had no problem with my battery. Still averaging 8-9 hrs per charge, before the update it was 7-8 hrs I say go ahead and update it, you'll feel better performace and smoother animations
50mp vs 200mp indoors is no difference whatsoever. Don't know if it's different in sunlight, I've yet to see the bright ball after 2 months of buying S23U (winter in Finland is fun).
@@theo7617 No? Ok, I've tested this on S23U myself and compared the results in photoshop. 50mp mode had the same amount of details as 200mp for indoor shots. 12mp vs 50mp there was a difference, but as far as effective resolution is concerned I'd say downscaling to 20mp-30mp from the 50mp shot seemed to be the limit of detail in my test. So what I'm saying is that the effective resolution for my indoor tests came out at around 20mp to 30mp - which mind you, is great for a sensor of this size. It can rival and sometimes even exceed my Sony A7 in details, even though old, it's a fricking full frame mirrorless camera.
@@theo7617 Did you even read what I said? 50mp vs 200mp = no difference indoors on S23U. All you are doing is increasing file size for no reason. Outdoors and in well lit indoor scenarios this is probably more meaningful though, I've yet to test this myself. It's too bad the other sensors are limited to 12mp, because I usually end up just using that mode regardless to get the full zoom range.
Why didn't you just put CAMERA REVIEW in the title. I just wasted my time here thinking you were going to talk about the overall aspects of the phone. This is just a Camera review 😢
S23U is the worst phone for mobile photography ever created, they sell it as a device to take photographs at a professional level and the quality of its Expert Raw files is terrible, the software is so invasive that it adds horrible sharpness by converting the "dng" file In garbage, the JPG output quality is the worst on the market, sharp, sharp, saturated, they put tools to correct that but it is not enough, 200mp is pure marketing, the photos taken in 200mp are softer but when you start to zoom in on the photograph To see details everything is transformed into watercolor, a painter's sketch, you can't even shoot Raw at full resolution given the number of useless megapixels in such a small sensor, it is by far the worst phone that someone could choose for mobile photography.
In my opinion you exaggerated a bit, but basically I agree with you... I owned the S23 Ultra for about 8 months, it has an incredible zoom, but it all ends there... Even if you look at the files on a large screen at high resolution, the the situation gets even worse... Poor quality of Expert Raw, and jpg files that are too saturated and with too much sharpness, a night mode that is often not up to par... As an Android device, apart from the camera, it remains one of the best on the market, even if loses value incredibly quickly…
@@soulking6868 The truth is that I try each new update to see if it improves but unfortunately NO, that absurd sharp sharpness that they print in a file that would supposedly be used to work in post production (Expert raw) is impossible to remove, it is unfortunate that a top-of-the-range phone and with those capabilities it has such poor photographic quality, the only way out is to install a gcam port to be able to obtain decent (natural) photos and a natural raw file without heavy post processing, I hope S24 U improves these flaws, I also don't understand why they continue to use a sensor massive 200mp, asking to use a 50mp one of much better quality and with pixels double the size, asking to offer a raw file at maximum resolution without having to go through binning as it currently does
S23U is the best smartphone overall but not camera king. The iPhone is still better in the camera department, although you can't really complain with the S23U's cameras either.
I agree with you that Samsung needs to work on capturing moving objects. This is my major issue shooting with my S23 Ultra.
Agreed 🙏
Exactly. As a parent with VERY active young children, this was unfortunately a deal breaker for me
Agreed. And I think it's software issue. On my note 10+ gcam port was taking superb photos, while it's own app was slow and poor in quality.
Set camera setting on prioritise speed, you will get what you want
@@eg8049how setting speed priority?? Thx

Do you guys like the camera section to be POV photography like in this video?
Yes, the POV camera section was a great addition to this video. It made your Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra revisit video much more immersive and engaging.
You did a great job! 👏🏼
Yes!!
Definitely
Iphone noob...
I like the idea, but it looks grainy for some reason. We're you using your professional camera to record it?

Looks like it should be a pretty beasty phone

Love that! Enjoy the Pixel🙌🏼🙌🏼 it’s a great phone
Was watching the last review, noicee, I can watch another for the ultra in time for their timely update.
Gotta see what Samsung does to differentiate the S24 with the S23 in the event.
Slowly samsung starting to feel like apple
@@Big_Chungus935 With Every iteration there is very little that sets it apart from the previous generation :(

Got a S23FE Ad while watching this. Peak Samsung Moment 📌
For shutter lag, in advanced intelligence options, there is different focus levels which reduces lag further

My s22 plus still rocking and is amazing and the 8gen 1 is still good one ui 6 improved battery life and other things
Wish s24 ultra have full raw video mode.. ❤
Next time put in the description that it’s only going to be a camera review. Me personally I was looking for more information besides the camera
My first love and best flagship phone of the 2023.❤

The new camera king is vivo x100
👀
Love this channel
Thanks :)
that optical zoom is the selling point for me ......even tho i cant buy a one
I’ve had both s23 ultra and 14 pro max . In photo mode both are amazing . But in video The iPhone 14 Pro Max killing it .
S23 ultra vs Pixel 7/8 pro would be a great one
I’ll do it with the S24 :)

Love From Bangladesh
200mp shouldn't be used like that, you should use 50mp mode the details are basically the same but with much more processing than the 200
The Best
The phone or the video? 🤣
Sorry my question is about 23 ultra
I bought s23 ultra today.its still one ui 5.1.what do u recommend shall I uptade to 6.0 or wait for 6.1? I ve heard tones of complains about battery life.thank you

Why would you want to capture a photo of a moving image when you can just record it on video and take still shots?????
Nice review
Thanks
love your way of explaining, Love from India
The 2 zoom lens are 10mp not 12
oohh I dream about the day when Android phone video quality will be up to the iPhone's standard :(
😅😅😅😅😅 seriously
What device were you recording the pov on, cause it looks hella noisy
Haha insta 360 go, and you’re right but there wasn’t much light in there 😂
I tested something iPhone 11 camera is better than 13,14,15 make a video budget camera phone iPhone 11
The telephoto cameras are 10MP, not 12MP
Sometimes for me the 12mp looks better then the 50 or 200mp
10-40 mb file size for a 200 mp shot really isn't that large. My old s21u took 108 mp photos with the same file size.
It’s very large for a smartphone photo though
@@ItsTomRich nope most phones have 512gb 1 tb in bulit some 2tb ones coming too
@@lggr2261Not everyone buys 512 or 1tb version. And if you take 200mp photos all the time, then ur storage gonna fill up quickly.
No no no, Oppo Find X7 Ultra is the best camera smartphone nowadays man!!!
Shame you can hardly buy one 🤣
No Xiaomi 13 Ultra 50MP full res main camera is the best ever for a cameraphone.
there is no 10x in s24 only 3x and 5x, but some leaks says that 5x at level of 10x is providing better shots than s23 due to 50mp.
Interesting, I try not to read too much into leaks until they’re fully announced. Super excited to see what comes!
Still?
Why isn't your back plain
Why there's so much font there
My s23ultra is neat on the back
So much what?
50mp vs 200mp indoors is no difference whatsoever. Don't know if it's different in sunlight, I've yet to see the bright ball after 2 months of buying S23U (winter in Finland is fun).

Camera noises, have many bugs, freezing...
My phone always takes good pics i love the s23 ultra not upgrading to the s24 ultra
You don’t need to upgrade for sure
mmm bacon
What 😂😂
Kind information, Samsung is not the camera king 😅
If you kenow how to use the phone is still the cam phone.
It is better then the iphine 15 pro max
Awful 10x zoom

Low light photography and night photography is weakest point of s23u.
Does anybody know why the 50 mpx pictures in Photo mode has coloring artifacts? It can be seen on skim, especially on face. Thanks.
