I had androids for 10 years but now the android OS is starting to lag (starting to slip) on ios and this is extremely clear. once innovators now there is nothing new really, and same 4 menus to do a thing that you do with 1 click in ios.

Most of them are with iphones and I use imessage audio straight away or imessage if they don't answer. It's so seamless also no need of the random phone number being into your contacts oh no no, you run a new number and before you dial it with regular cellular call hold on the line and choose imessage video or audio and in 2 seconds your iphone will tell you if the other side has not being registered in icloud meaning this device is no iphone or it will straight away call it. no android phone or version can do that. fast as a eagle, seamless as baby toy you do it close eyed

You said that most people you message had Apple phones. This mean that some people you message use Android phones, right? How is it seamless then when iMessage uses SMS when communicating with Android users?

What's the alternative from Android? imessaging any random person with random android device via internet not taxing from your carrier? imessage is not only messages ;) it's audio photo video also while you write the other side see you are writing and many more. with one touch of message icon on home screen, not going into complicated and full of ads apps like viber, fb messenger and else. even complicated things in iPhones are seamless for the user this has no android equivalent

                I can understand the pain of the haters, as Samsung has made the perfect phone this year.

                Some can't just accept the fact that Samsung made the best phone in history and that it hasn't got any weak points. Even GSMArena says it lmao!!! The improvement over the S22 Ultra is enormous. So that's why Samsung haters hate it so much, because it crushes out the chinese garbage brands like Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo... which are inferior in most if not all aspects!!!

                Inferior brands can compete for the 2nd and 3rd ranks. As the S23 Ultra is the king of 2023 ;)

                  SShock, 13 Feb 2023I can't understand why Samsung doesn't include th... moreIt's probably because prioritizing speed affects quality, so Samsung doesn't want average users to do that. I don't see much point in doing this, though. If you want speed, why don't you simply use the 12.5 MP mode? When you use the 200 MP mode, you want maximum quality. Prioritizing speed defeats the purpose. I guess it's useful in case you only want quality a bit higher than that of the 12.5 MP mode. Most people probably don't want a bit of improvement in exchange for a much bigger file size, though.

The Nubia is cheaper but also worse in many ways, the Huawei has decent cameras, but is lacking Google Services and the iPhone is even more expensive with an arguably much weaker camera.

                                  Highly disagree on the closing statement, that the s22 ultra was too good. My s22 ultra which i upgraded to from my s10+ was probably one of the worst phones ever. If you gave me that phone and asked me about the price I would associate with the experience it provided, I would not have even given it £500. My dad's s21+ was 10x smoother, battery lasting 2 days easily for him and sure its a case of usage, but even standby times were vastly different. The s23 ultra is what the s22 ultra was supposed to be because it is no longer played by that dog of an exynos processor. Both me and my friend had identical experiences with the s22 ultra, I got the s23 and 1 week later i have absolutely 0 complaints, it is the perfect phone so far while my s22 ultra I was unhappy with stutter and lag within probably 30s of unboxing it.

                                    Ravuh, 15 Feb 2023Best in how? Its CPU is slower than iPhone 14 pro. Not the ... moreWhy people here keep doing this nonsense. Picking and choosing different parts of "this is best" and comparing it to something. Ok, so individual phones have single thing better than Galaxy S23 Ultra (or iPhone 14 Pro Max). But show me phones that have at least 3/4 of things better than mentioned 2 flagships? If we just mention software support, 99% of the competition falls flat on its face, or they have exceptional chipset performance at expense of active fan cooling which ruins water resistance entirely and is terrible for dust collection from pockets. Or they just have rubbish cameras. It's always something. Galaxy S phones or iPhones generally don't have such issues, but people so furiously try to ignore that fact. It's also why they cost so much, because they are great almost across the board unlike all the cheaper Chinese options that always have just something that's weird, bad or annoying. Poor software support being almost universal issue across all of them.

                                        Sure, the camera or battery may not be THE best, but they're not far off. Judging by most reviews, the S23U seems like the best all-rounder.
