While the phone has a premium feel, slightly better performance and great battery, It feels like a sideway step. A 1080p screen with only 393ppi is very disappointing, even the camera has less megapixels. That’s what I get for not being patient I guess, the S24+ looks to have all the specs I wanted. Pain.
- More megapixels does not equate to a better camera or quality. - The SD 8 Gen 2 is the biggest upgrade you’ll get, especially if coming from exynos. - Then adaptive refresh vs static is another one, other than that, don’t expect massive upgrades in such a small time. Phones have pretty much reach peal these last few years. Foldables are what you are looking for if you want a fresh new experience. 
- ULTRA, the new epic standard is here. ALSO for the OP, always go Ultra if the size doesn’t bother you!! 
- In photography more mpx does not mean better, often it is the other way round if hitting high mpx density 
- We’re very much to a point where there isn’t much to dramatically improve on. 
- I noticed 0 difference from my note 10 to my s23 ultra aside from camera and even camera zoom is pretty useless. Cool for like 1 day then you never use it again. - S23 is way faster than note 10. - Like I said I didn’t notice any difference. I’m sure it is faster but didn’t notice it. 
 
 
- S24+ specs confirmed? where? 
- return it, save up and move to the S24U - Why? - They’re speaking about feeling underwhelmed with an S23+, likely have some degree of buyers remorse. Might as well go back to their trusty and capable device for now, push back upgrading a couple more months to see if the S24U will scratch the itch. Rinse and repeat until one actually feels the necessity to upgrade. - It was too late to go back to my old device as I traded up, but they accepted a refund as I moved up to the s23 ultra. Very pleased with the screen and camera. 
 
 
 
- Return it if you can. They’ve been being cheap with the plus since the s20. Apparently $1000 isn’t enough for flagship specs on a phone that will be worth $300-400 after 2 years… - I returned it and picked up an 23 ultra, very happy with it. 
- Note, $1,000 in 2013 is the equivalent of about $1,400 now. Meaning modern Galaxy S series phones are about $400 “cheaper” than they used to be, if they’re still $1,000. - The S20 isn’t 10 years ago, obviously, but inflation and supply chain issues have hit hard.
