Hello,

I’ll be making an investment into a new phone soon after using my note 8 since launch. Due to financial reasons it’ll be a huge investment and I want to make the right call. My note 8s battery barely lasts me 3/4ths of a day now.

I feel like it would feel like a downgrade if I got the S23+ with FHD resolution but the price gap is quite large too. Does the Ultras battery last longer than plus? What about the hardware? Is it worth the investment? I do use my phones for 4+ years.

What would you guys recommend?

    Note 8 is still usable…but probably laggy like my old s8+…if you are a Note user why even consider s23+??? Just get the note 11 or note 12…(s22ultra or s23ultra) or get the pre order deals s24ultra…getting the ultra will be an upgrade in every single category and ultra stalker zoom is actually usable in photo and video and the bigger battery will make it last longer… s23+ only has 120hz and camera upgrade vs note8

      Just get the note 11 or note 12…(s22ultra or s23ultra)

      Might be pedantic but considering there was a Note 20 it might be better to just call these the note 22 and 23 to avoid confusion lol

        Oh wow forgot about that one…might be because that one was even more dissapointing than the s20ultragifgifbecause of the 60hz and lack of ultra cameras

          Lol well there was also the Note 20 Ultra which improved on the S20 Ultra and also had the stylus. It was also Samsung’s last flagship phone to have an SD card slot. The base note was a joke at that price tho, might as well just save $600 or so and get a Moto stylus with those specs.
