    We're literally at the point of diminishing returns with respects to Samsung and their "S" series.

    With the S22 and S23 Ultra, they rounded, expanded and brightened the viewing area but gimped the selfie camera and available RAM on the base 128GB models (compared to the S21 Ultra 5G).

    In 2024, they are allegedly bumping the megapixels again and offering an LTPO display (welcomed) but the display area will be based on the A54.

    And, years after utilizing multiple lenses, their imaging software is still rubbish.

    Where is the incentive to "upgrade"?

            I am more excited with Google using GN2(Samsung's own sensor) on Pixel 8 series than Samsung focusing on MP. This is just marketing shit. Their sales are relatively better compared to past 2 series as they moved to Snapdragon 8Gen2 across the board and unlike past 2 years they are manufactured on TSMC N4. Otherwise their phones have been meh and they are continuing to lose market share to Apple in developed markets.

                    Which is it large bezels, sun burst display and 200Mp sensor ?

                    No wonder they look different the S24 Ultra is literally busting!!
                    This is turning out to be a major upgrade

                    Just another 6 months to go @ 2 exclusives per week.
                    So another 52 announcements, will the S24 even resemble the S23?

My biggest complaint about Samsung processing is exactly that - extensive sharpening and processing. Samsung is just oversharpening photos to the point, where all you see is rather big frequency details, and all small ones are lost. HDR processing is just bad. Halos effects like from the first HDR software ages ago. Photos that both the Samsung Camera app and ExpertRAW are producing look like from someone who plays with sliders in the LR/Photoshop for the first time in their life - and does not know when pushed them too far. GCAM is fixing that all. It is rather similar to something more like Sony produces in the last Xperias. Of course, you can find configs to GCAM that will do exactly what you say, but it is not something that is being promoted in that GCAM thread on XDA forum.

                                      Another advantage is you can shoot with f4 for more detail in stills, which in many phones now is hard to get with such bright aperture having almost everything out of focus.
                                      Not to mention video with less of focus hunting.
                                      They also got quality lens with edge to edge sharpness, on par with oppo.
                                      So variable aperture is pretty useful, that's wh6 it exist.
