    I am waiting to see what S24 is like, and I would say it’s better to buy S23 then as well, preferably from Samsung website itself. I might go with S23, if there’s nothing special about S24. They give out a ton of offers, and maybe the 5% cashback or thereabouts applies to last year model during the Unpacked Event. In Feb last year, S22 was around EUR 600, so I hope S23 gets to that price from Samsung itself. Don’t want to experiment buying S series phones from third-party retailers.

    If you can trade-in any of his existing devices (you will first get the new phone, gift it, and then start the exchange process, but maybe have an “off-handed” talk if he does have any device he can give up), you can probably get him a S23U, maybe 256 GB only.

    S23 is alright, maybe should cost a little less because it the base model. If he is okay with bigger phones, then S23+.



  • Live and learn. At least it was an A-series, not an S-series. People here breaking their S23 Ultra screens, only later realising, “shoulda been more careful”. The temper glass/case stuff, it’s just to protect from absolutely arbitrary bumps. But you didn’t lose too much. At least not as bad as people spending 1000$+ on an S-series and then breaking it next day.


  • SmartSwitch seems perfect for syncing/new device setup. But if there are some apps missing on the Tablet, it will have to be installed first - usually, when you do a SmartSwitch in that case, when you tap the app icon placed after SmartSwitch on the Tablet, it will first download and install it.
