The next thing that will go is the box. Theyll just hand you the phone. Why? Because environment.

    Samsung S23 not coming out of the box with an ordinary charging cable is very bad and wrong
    If Samsung wants to reduce their so called footprint they should release new phones once every 3years

      The new phones are basically the same thing with a new chipset and that's it

        Hello gsmarena folks. Can you do battery life tests on regular and plus model. double capacity offer doesn't last forever and I am purely basing my decision on this meter.

          Prices of these mobiles are redicouls, everyone who wants or needs to upgrade cannot, recession is hitting everyone,Geez 😱

            The Samsung Ultra and S Series have been the best smartphones for years. There are better cameras, faster phones, phone with better battery life etc. But as an overall package, Samsung usually does a great job.

            Btw, I read online (that shady ice universe?), that rhe cameras on the S Series, need to be tuned wrt their isp. So rhe cameras are going to get even better.

              Isn't half as interesting as the upcoming coca cola phone ,,😁

                Next year they're going to remove the sim ejector and in 2 years they might as well remove the phone

                  What there's no cable? Madness!

                    rizki1, 03 Feb 2023still no Redmi Note 12 and Xiaomi 13 review..They usually review the global version.

                            My first camera impresion is so bad in some scenarios like tried to take picture of my dog on snow and somehow it could not take picture like tried to zoom into dog, changed color of snow..terrible.
                            Overal it's feel different of lower crease of screen, much better than s22u.
                            No other differences from s22u.

                                So there will be no review for the standard S23, for normal people on release day? Only for the overpriced and insanely large plane carrier? Nice. Also remember to act like all the bad things about this phone are not that bad, because who really cares, since there are worse devices... out there, somewhere. At least Samsung will be happy and you will get S24 to review for free next time.

                                  According to the Samsung website the S23U comes with a charging cable.

                                    s21 ultra specs: *16 gb RAM 512gb storage, same 3 out of 4 cameras. s23 ultra specs: *12 GB RAM 512gb. S21 ultra in developer mode blists the s23 ultra... free of charge. Not to mention s21 selphie 40mp against the software of s23 Ultra selphie. Hold onto the s21 ultra's 😆

                                        The S22 ultra used to come with usb c cable I believe. Isn't it? Now the S23 ultra just got an ejector pin. What if I haven't been using a smartphone before and I don't have a charger or usb c cable with me lying around. The S23 ultra doesn't offer it because they're contributing to the environment. But the same is available at an extra cost. Just pathetic. Even if you need to charge via USB, you need a usb cable. This is pure greed. This calls for a lawsuit. You sell the product with basic accessories or don't sell it at all.
