    Wongwatt, 09 Feb 2023I really, really wish Samsung would sell a version of this ... moreThere are ways around Samsung even without a computer. You'd be amazed at what that does for performance of even their midrange devices.

            I bought it last March 8th at a discounted price because my local Samsung store has a trade-in program for a limited time. I traded-in my Note 10 Lite for a 256/8 S23 with roughly 25% off from its original price. The trade-in value though will depend on the condition of your old phone. Worth the wait and money.

                          MrGrumpy, 13 Feb 2023The S23 is NOT a compact phone. Since when has a 6.1 screen... moreIn 2010. when all phones were between 2.8" and 4.0" screen size, 2.8" was considered compact as that was the smallest screen size available on the market. Except maybe for some Xperia Mini phones which were even smaller. In 2014. when all phones were between 4.3" and 5.5", the 4.3" was considered as compact. Do you see where am I going with this?

                          Compact phone is a phone which is the smallest on the market. So, in Android world that's Asus Zenfone 9 and Samsung Galaxy S23. For Apple, that's iPhone SE and 14 (and 14 Pro).

                          And no, those big devices will not be even bigger but compact phones could become bigger then now. Why? Because all those components inside the phone takes space and big battery and cooling and many other things that are just harder to implement in smaller case then In a bigger one.

                          I want more compact phones as well, but it seems you think there is some kind of a rule what is a compact phone and it should follow some dimensions to be a compact phone. No, in my opinion that's not the case. Because every hand is different and besides that people have their own preferences. We are not using our phones the same way. Some people want bigger phone because they don't use a computer, so they do EVERYTHING on phone. Literally everything.

                          Anyways, smaller more compact phone is harder to make then a bigger one. Everybody wants high preforming chip and good battery with some good set of camera. It's way harder to put all that in smaller case and hope for tempetatures to be in line with other bigger device who have more space inside the phone. That's the reason not many phones are in that "compact" line of offerings.

                          Have a nice day Grumpy. Great nickname btw.. lol

                            curious, 27 Feb 2023S23 camera quality worse than iPhone 12 and even S21 FE? Wh... moreI've never tried to compare with the iPhone 12, but as ex S21 FE (Exynos) and S22 users, I can say the S23 is way better than S21 FE, especially in the video, night, and zoom modes. Compared with S22, S23 are noticeable improvements but not that big.

I've had a P20 P... moreI have to stop you there, some of what you saying is incorrect. firstly, Honor was a sub-brand of Huawei, who only recently got out of their big brothers shadow and are still trying to and as such can't be put up to same scrutiny as the other brands. Secondly the S23 designwise is basically an iPhone 8 back with a bigger main camera and two additional cameras and a hole punch AMOLED display. Thirdly if you see what Chinese are doing with their innovative ideas, it's really quite amazing and yes Huawei is the best out of the lot unfortunately (competed with Apple and Samsung in 2019, and if I remember kicked samsung out of their second spot for a second, just before they were suddenly banned), that's why even though there is really not a lot wrong with Samsung, a lot of people are against them I think, but honestly I think more than anything we miss the Samsung of old, that quirky phones such as the Camera galaxy and projector galaxy and whatever happened to their transparent phone patent?

                                      The 5 series should be okay as it's actually about as tall as the S23+ (just looks super tall), and if the 1 V's rumors are true, it would become shorter than the S23 Ultra, which, for me, is still acceptable

                                        Northern Link, 17 Feb 2023I think having less than 12GB of RAM is also a major con fo... moreSony phones are too tall for my taste, hurts sitting when it's in the front jeans pocket.
                                        Asus is perfect in size, but it lacks an extra camera and offers a much shorter support. So unless they match Samsung with years of updates this year, I'll have to skip it again.
                                        I might go for pixel 8 this year, if they further reduce it in size and match S23.
