Samsung's Galaxy S23 Ultra builds on the company's camera strengths, but this is still a very expensive device.

Smartphones are an incredibly personal thing. We carry them everywhere, interact with them hundreds of times a day, and our choice in ecosystems instantly says a lot about us. If you want to boast to the world, “I have the phone with everything,” then the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is for you. Wait.

A beautiful display, Included S Pen, All day battery life

Inconsistent photos, Sharp corners, Still curved screen, Expensive

Overall, the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra easily surpasses its predecessor as the reliable all-rounder flagship to get for 2023.

The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra packs in class-leading camera features, along with the latest and most powerful hardware ever in a Galaxy smartphone. It's as good as you can get in an Android smartphone, as long as you can afford it.

Amazing detail captured by 200MP main camera, Excellent display that is visible in direct sunlight, Fun and creative Astro photography modes, More processing power that you'll probably ever need

Design is attractive but could be a little more distinct than the older S22 Ultra, Google Pixel 7 Pro is cheaper while offering a competitive feature set, No major advances apparent with 100x zoom in terms of clarity vs the S22 Ultra

Perfect, I absolutely love the camera. Buy it you wont be disappointed Amazing features

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is the world’s best Android smartphone.

Samsung’s premium glass slab offering with an S-Pen and DeX, 200MP camera is about bragging rights but generally lives up to the promise, Fast processor, RAM, and storage, Excellent battery life, 2+4+5 warranty/OS upgrades/security patches

No charger inbox and only up to 27W charging from third-party chargers, Base model 8/256GB – this is supposed to be a premium phone., An 8-bit/16.7m colour screen is inappropriate for a premium flagship.

The new Samsung flagship comes at a price but it offers a lot, with dazzling performance and cameras that deliver in every situation.

Spectacular cameras, Smart, elegant design, Great battery life, Super-fast performance, Extra storage in base configuration

Pricey, Occasional camera issues, Charging is fast, but beaten by rivals

If ever there was a phone worthy of the “ultra” moniker, the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is it. The phone is unrivalled in size, power, capability and battery life on Android, while its camera is more capable than any other on the market.

Pros: very big 120Hz screen, brilliantly capable camera with 3x and 10x optical zoom, good software with five years support, faster fingerprint scanner, S Pen stylus, top performance, very long battery life, contains recycled materials.

Cons: huge, heavy, extremely expensive, S Pen may be superfluous feature for many.

Good phone so far but not as comfortable to hold as the edges aren't rounded on the phone or the Samsung case.
