- Almost a year later with the Samsung S23 Ultra, this was probably one of my favorites this year. Really excited about the S24 lineup coming early next year. I'll be having videos on that soon here on the channel!

4:29 Longterm Experience w/S23 Ultra - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Thank you guys for this year. This is my first ever year that I've been able to upload consistently for 12 months (and counting). For those of you who were here at the beginning of the year you'll remember how my videos were not so good, lacked a lot of b-roll and content was a little all over the place. I think I'm finally getting into the groove of things. I was able to get my first ever sponsor back in February and ever since then I've been getting multiple reachouts weekly. I can't express how grateful I am to be able to do this. I have been on the platform for so ages (on another channel that does no longer exist) but never had any growth, any exposure, and I genuinely believed that I was never gonna get anywhere.
These last few months have shown me how much impact consistency has on your work. I only have you guys and God to thank for.
Till this day, I still have the same excitement to upload a new video. I genuinely love doing this, and all I hope for is to be able to do this for as long as I can and to keep making content that you guys will enjoy.
Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Happy Holidays, I'll see you guys soon ❤
from your video I just learned from you - Samsung is good what they are doing and Apple is good what they are doing - BUT WHAT A HECK THEY DOING?! :)
I switched to my first iPhone (15 Pro Max) in November and I'm definitely going back to Samsung. I didn't known IOS was so limited, plus no universal back button has been killing me.
My stepdaughter let me borrow her iPhone 11 Pro & not having a back button, is driving me crazy & then, with the flash for the camera, I hate you just can’t tap it, like on Samsung. You really got to go through to many things, just to do one thing. I can’t wait for the S24.
Agrer. iOS only has a swipe from left to use the back function. Another issue is that on most apps, the only swipe will not allow you to go back further. You need to tap on certain buttons which are placed differently depending on the app.
They will probably add it as ground breaking new tech to sell their new overpriced reskinned product.
They got me like that 2. I had to switch back
I thought I was the only one, lol. When I tried using a relative's iPhone, I kept trying to find the back button, and each app has a different back button on either top left or right, it was so confusing to use! lol.
I switched to the 15 pro and have realized the s23 ultra is a better option for me...c'mon s24
i switched from iPhone 15 pro to S23 Ultra and its my best decision ever 💯
@@i_pabitraI’m proud of you welcome to android you should look at customisation it really helps I was a apple user then xioami android now nothing android
Same had an iPhone 12, and got a s23ultra, and back to iPhone I went around September of this year, waiting on the s24ultra
😂😂😂😂 once you taste it you never go back
@@Carlos-xu5zqwhy did you swap your S23 ultra for the iPhone ? And why would you swap your iPhone for the S24 ultra ? Thanks !
I switched to the entire apple system for 6 months and hated it and sold everything and went back to Android and Windows with the new Intel Ultra chips. To this day I still have my S22 and can't wait to get the S24
No doubt, S23 Ultra is 2023 smartphone of the year. Samsung and Qualcomm did an amazing job with 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy. Since the launch of this smartphone, whatever the channel, every tech reviewer has recognized, S23 Ultra was another level: not perfect everywhere but high level of consistency.
A17 Pro raw power, Speakers, Videography, Icons & emojis aesthetic are great on iPhone but S23 Ultra has much features built in.
Icons & emojis aesthetic? grow up dude
I had a 14 Pro before I switched to S23 Ultra. My reason for switching was that my 14 Pro's battery had an issue. So I said why not switch to Samsung and it was one of the few decisions that I don't regret. Merry Christmas everyone.
I switch back and forth between the S23 Ultra and the 15 Pro. It really depends on what I have going on during the day. My 15 Pro is better at video, My S23 Ultra is better at photography (in my opinion). Honestly, this year I'm just thankful that I can use just one charger for all my devices. lol
Samsung has its own ecosystem
Samsung galaxy book ultra i9 4070
Samsung s23
Samsung watch 6
Samsung buds
Samsung tab s9
*Samsung dex
And it has all the feature and more what Mac can do.... Plus you can game due to rtx4070
:)
What kills me with the samsung eco is their laptops battery life, being a student I love the battery life of the M silicon of Apple.
Yeah for battery life we'll just wait on intel to make a better cpu that can use less power.
@@holderproduction6968snapdragon X elite is around the corner, battery life won't be a problem with windows laptops anymore
How about their refrigerator and washers and dryers? 😂
@Ryandaily382 Samsung can put a 5000mah battery bigger than iphones , with faster charging, with a vapor chamber for cooling , reverse wireless charging and an s pen , their own camera sensor 200mp wich captures crazy details , their own ram and storage chips , and their own screens wich are best in market.
Yet iphone doesn't have any of that and you say Samsung only knows how to makes refrigerators , u delusional.
Still the best phone of 2023 overall even though it was the first to come out among the major brands.
Great video Victor ❤ Merry Christmas. This has aged very well. Can't wait for the S24 ultra.
Thank you, you too Keifer! Cant wait for the S24 Ultra
I like your calm atmosphere. I am cheering from Japan.
Forgive me, but this video should have been about your "Realistic Experience" but instead all I was getting is just continuous talking and specs and vague info about small dislikes, I couldn't sit and continue watching the entire video. I hope maybe in the future your video are more organized so we can get better details and you getting straight to the point instead of alot of continuous talking. Best wishes for your channel tho
I will work on that! Thank you for the advice
I'm happy with my s23+
Fav phone of 2023 frfr
Happy holidays my boi 🎉
I Bought My S23 Ultra 3 Months Ago I Love It Always ❤
Merry Christmas ❤ victor 😊
thank you too man. Thank you for showing love on my videos it means so much
I’ve been an iPhone user since 2013 and I never regret ditching it to S23U. Overall, I love the galaxy’s performance and the aesthetic.
Great review
MY 2023 list :
1. Huawei mate x5 foldable 1 tb simply brilliant it has absolutely everything devoid of nothing
2. My glorious incredible Samsung s23 ultra most fun phone ive ever owned
3. ONE PLUS OPEN good hinge
4. XIAOMI MIX FOLD 3 excellent design
5. PIXEL 8 PRO impressive AI
6. Iphone 15 pro max 1 tb great video and excellent clean implementation of their AI voice accessibility feature
The Huawei mate x5 fold is phenomenal. It has micro SD card, every camera is incredible, 3 to 5 day battery, stylus pen works every screen , big front screen, emergency satellite crash etc it's amazing and I'm a big Samsung fan
The iphone 15 pro max is my favorite iPhone but it can't compare to any of those androids with its limitations and many of those features like programmable side key and USB C Samsung has had for years
Having just watched your video on the samsung s23. I'm a samsung s23 ultra owner, and I think you will always have a iPhone/ Samsung deavided but I'm aways be in the samsung camp not because I've always been a samung user but I think you can do more with a Samsung then you can with a iPhone it's what your use to at the end of the day and don't think it's necessary to upgraded your phones every year anyway.
Spen is what makes it better than others! Its fun and useful at the same time especially to sign documents and for artists!
One ui is what makes it better but yeah s pen is a top of the ice berg
ALL OF THE FAMOUS REVIEWERS OF THIS PHONE DID NOT TACKLE HOW THE 3X PORTRAIT IS DIFFERENT FROM THE REST OF THE CAMERA MODULE. THAT'S THE BEST PART OF THE CAMERA I SHOULD SAY.
Hi bro, as a Note 10 long term user I like how you have directed the video, is true that there in the USA is very common to be Apple Team, and as you can see the deal here is, what do you use your phone for? Because the normal user will fit perfectly with both, but if you stress out the phone there is when you find what is for you. It have to be fun to be full apple, because windows-android is a fucking mess, thankfully Samsung Desk save me a lot of time and worries when I try to connect them. Nice video by the way!👌👌
Great video man ! keep rocking 🍻.( + sub )
Great video, but kindly update your description as there is no link for your review of s23u
Thank you for the heads up will do!
@@victordia099 thanks brother. Appreciated 👍🏻
The majority of us that bought the S23 Ultra were not able to keep it in our pockets. It is usually in the house because of its size while other phones are in our pockets. I'm waiting to trade in my own for the S24 Plus
I recently upgraded from a note 9 to a s23. Yeah big jump I know. Except.. well I wish there was a s23 pro? Or a s23 ultra but in a smaller form factor. My dinosaur of a note 9 had quad hd.. and I can definitely see a difference. It would be nice to have the dame cameras as the s23 ultra on a smaller form factor. What happened to me was I was forced to get a second phone so I got a regular iphone12 a couple years ago. And I found myself liking the one hand usability. That's why I got the regular s23 instead of a note size ultra. Also I drive a hyundai ioniq electric and when it comes to android auto vs apple carplay you can clearly tell that these car manufacturers pick a side. I can not access the full screen on my car's display using android auto but I can using the iPhone..😑 I'd also like to add that I haven't had an iphone since the first iPhone. One thing I do like is the harmony in the apple ecosystem between the airpods and iPhone. I have a pair of beats fit pros which I absolutely love. But yeah that's my story. I like both platforms. If I had to choose one I would pick the android because it works better with third party apps like the app I use for work on a daily basis. Also PIP is a big plus for android. However, if I didn't work this job I would probably stick to the iPhone just because more people have it and the harmony within the ecosystem is very pleasant.
Oh I forgot to mention. The main reason why I didn't get the s23 ultra instead was the price. The price is scary. 1200$ for a phone is bugged out. I think I paid 8-900$ for my note 9 when it was released.
@@jhonn475if you buy direct from samsung and got a trade they will hook you up. I never pay anywhere close to full price for any samsung device.
the only thing you choose these days is Android, Android w/ One UI 6, and iOS. hardware on flagships are all good. Pixel 8/8 Pro, Samsung S series, iPhone/Pro/Pro Max. they are All good. just pick your ecosystem and go. I think Pixel 8 Pro is my favorite of 2023.
I’ve been thinking a lot how I use my technology and the ecosystem I want to be a part of although Apple can be boring and a little bit stifling. Their hardware is great. The Apico system is stronger and android. Doesn’t have an Apple Watch Ultra competitor which I think would make it easier for me to switch. I do really enjoy Samsung and how they always add the most features to the phoneand to me that’s the hardest part about giving my time and energy to Apple because they don’t innovate the same way. Great video bro.
I don't care who has the best camera. Every flagship smartphone takes super pictures and video's. 97% of all smartphone users don't even see the differences.
I'm a SMARTPHONE user so I want the best of : usablility and productivity options, gaming- and multi-media experience, personalization options and innovation.
I want DEX, KNOX, S-PEN, call recording, multi-tasking, multi-window, fingerprint scanner, call recording, integration with windows, the biggest eco-system (Samsung SmartThings), fast charging, fast wireless charging, screen and I want AI.
On all these aspects the S24 Ultra is destroying the iphone 15 PM big time. So why keep people buying these antiquated, restricted and very very limited iphones?
Does any one's power button a bit loose than the volume buttons?
Hi what camera are you using for recording this?
Hello I am using a Sony A7 mark 3 great camera that shoots solid 4k video
I switched to 15 pro but more than likely will buy another s23 ultra or get the s24 ultra
A little tips, instead of spending 5 mins on intro, your other videos and history, try to jump on the topic little bit fast. I found it boring, i don't know about the others. Just sharing my perspective
I liked it tbh
How do you get that battery life , ive bought it a week ago and barely get one day battery life 😢 and i dont even use it that much ....
It has to learn your usage before you get good battery life.
@@AnCap1776 i sure hope thats the case
I had the S23U and it's the best battery life I've had on a phone ever! Longer you have it the better it gets!
@@ChristopherMT07 we will see in time i just bought it
Congrats on opening your eyes. Now we're waiting for Samsung's laptop and tablet on your desk.
I also switched to ultra from iPhone, and I love it next I'm looking forward S24 Ultra
Good review, what is the case your using please
The case is from Benks! Ive left a link in the description where you can get it! Make sure to use code: VictorLaurent at checkout to save yourself some money for the holidays🖤
@@victordia099 thank you I did find it 👌
Your s23 ultra case?
Check the link in the description of the video!
Do you like that beach picture in you screen? Well, welcome my country, Portugal, Lagos in Algarve region.
s23 ultra or SF-23?
Is it worth taking s23ultra next year? As s24 u is coming
It would be a good time to get it yes since it’s still a really good phone. Although I would wait just to see the S24 when its out and all the new stuff.
@@victordia099 ok thanks man you deserve a sub :)
S23 is such a good phone,powerful with great battery life.Once the s24 ultra drops,getting the s23u for less is a great choice.I personally don’t think i will trade mine for the s24u
Get the s23 ultra s24 ultra a downgrade why because the titanium frame will scratch and break easy! Flatscreen will look ugly on a android and taken off 10× zoom also it only 15% percent there no upgrade to the s24 ultra at all trust me waste of money
@@kylewright3484 thanks y'all tbh lets wait for January for the official release :)
Am considering getting the s23u with discounts now or should i wait for the s24u =S
Jumping from note10+
Just wait !
Just wait !
Just wait !
Just wait !
Just wait !
Try to make shorter intros and jump right in the the main topic of your videos
Only thing i sint like about 23 ultra is its feel 8n the hand. Too boxy and without a case too slippery. S23+ has a much better size and shape
My pet peeve is android users who still use buttons 💀
Are you using a screen protector? If so, which one are you using :o
Whitestone dome glass
High quality but you need a VERY clean environment and need a second device to watch the installation video and you need to do it to the tee
It scratches a little but is easily the best feeling and has the best smear resistance
@@manguyboymale5716 oh I had that installed for me by the shop for a day but I got titled by the adhesive(?) glue that could be barely be perceived but it still caught my attention. So I removed it after a day haha. But ya it definitely had the best feeling and looks for a tempered glass.
Apple should make a gaming phone with a apple gaming controller the gaming mobile market is huge mobile gaming outdid console and pc gaming combined in 2023
Ive been haveing samsung and its been rrally good i have the s23 ultra and the buds2 pro and i wont be switching to iphone
I would never ever give up my Samsung ultra for an iphone.
Ur wallpaper link please…❤❤❤
I switched from LG to samsung n I wish I could go back to LG samsung has to many minor inconveniences for me, but I will never switch to apple
The S23 Ultra is the best phone of the year ofc🎉💯💯
Well, s23u is the most consistent phone of 2023,, but its selfies and portraits aren't that good imo. I really like the way apple portrays pretty much everything and i m thinking about changing to the iphone 15 pro max from my samsung galaxy s9+ which was practical and useful BUT its battery the last couple of years sucked and its camera is the WORST. Especially the selfie camera is awful. On the other hand a friend of mine has the regular iphone 15 and her selfies and photos are clear af.. Sorry samsung but if you have great selfie cameras etc (instagram etc camera as well) i will switch back. Tbh, samsung is more practical i know but i m bored with the minimum changes throughout the years.. i want to taste something else..
I see you swiping up to unlock your phone theres options to skip it and goin faster you waisting to much time im telling you
How politically correct of you to say merry Christmas.. if you celebrate
4G?
U gotta make a script dude. U ramble alot😊
I agree. He doesn't really come up for air. Talks way too fast, talks but really doesn't say anything.
Two minutes of greeting and intro, you lost me, sorry. I wanted to hear and see about the switch from iPhone to s23 ultra
Ok
It's like comparing apples and tomatoes...these are 2 completely different experiences and I believe using bith ecosystems, S23 ultra it has more to offer 😊
I’m actually kinda annoyed there are menny companies but Samsung xioami has the best cameras of eny phone ROG best for gaming redmi best budget my phone Nothing 1 perfect great design
Ive really been thinking of upgrading my z flip 4 but im stuck between two chioces the iphone 15 and the z flip 5 i dont know what to choose
Why upgrade?
Depends on your needs. iPhone 15 is a great value arguably better than 15 pro for the price it comes at. But z flip 5 is also a great phone. Ive done a review on both phones if you wanna go watch them!
th-cam.com/video/jXXXeQ79e58/w-d-xo.html
Ultra because Flop and Fold are way overpriced way too fragile and lack too much...S Pen and Flop cameras awful...Flop is a toy
@@victordia099call it the Flop or Fold...to add the z is stupid
iPhone is super slow in productivity even an entry level android can outmatch iPhone.
This drink dangerous it got me looking at you different...I guess I like it.
Still have s22 ultra not upgrading until Samsung gives us faster charging speeds s24 going have same specs that's why I'm not upgrading im also team Samsung
Nope don't need to wreck battery just for bragging rights
it's fine as it is. Faster speeds will wreck your battery in not even 3 Months.
You can't fully switch unless you switch your entire eco system. Having a mac book isn't really switching.
For that comparison i honestly think s23 ultra tarnished iPhone 15 Pro max reputation, s24 ultra is just gonna put iPhone on bankruptcy road 😂
I will never leave Apple. The iDildo is a very exciting product with no Android equivalent.
Everything is all good until they start sending you the required updates,, then slowly for surely everything starts slowing down and the storage space starts to also diminish SMH
Those days are over tbh, my Z Fold 5 and S23 Ultra got faster with android 14/one UI 6.
Which year are you living in homie? lol
Updates aren't required, you can stay on old version if you want. But what you're saying isn't true at all anyway
