I barely notice any difference when I compared S23 Ultra's 2K resolution with S21+'s 1080p, so having a higher ppi is technically useless for me. The Plus models sticking with 1080p display is totally fine.

              Anonymous, 14 Feb 2023390 ppi display on a $1000 phone lmao I don't even think you'll notice the difference as human eyes can only see up to 300 ppi.

                        I ordered the s23 plus purple on march 5th n had a delivery date for the 10th. Well here it is April 8th n I think my 5th newest delivery date is for the 11th. Yeah sure. If you didn't have the damn phone you shouldn't be offering it or at least be honest enough to say hey it's gonna be a month or 2 or 3 but I'm thinking never at this point. I've chatted, texted n phoned customer service n got the same runaround about being at the top of the list or some bull. If they would of said hey it'll be 3 months till it's in stock I would of waited. I wouldn't of minded but I hate liars. I tried cancelling n they won't let me. I tried to change the color n it didn't make a difference. I'm stuck because I'm doing a payment plan so I guess they get to screw you because of it. So warning don't try n finance with them.

                          The pixel density of this phone is very disappointing. Imagine the glory days of of s8-s10! From 570ppi down to 393ppi??? Some users may not care about this issue but this is a serious downgrade I promise! Even the iPhones have better ppis nowadays.

                            The S23+ should have S-pen compatibility. Then it would be a relatively easy pick with 512gb. The S23 Ultra is too heavy and has the useless and ugly curved screen (= deal breaker).
                            Again very difficult decision Samsung is creating here - probably will have to wait for the S24 and hope the best...

                                  After using it for a week or something I have to say it has bad display. It lacks sharpness, colors are bit dull too. Reading emails or PDF files was causing strange eye fatigue.

                                      "Such a scenario is, of course, totally unrealistic in real usage and meant to purposefully saturate the phone with as much heat as possible as quickly as possible."

                                      I'm tired of reading the same things over and over again in almost every Samsung review.

                                      Do you want a real test bench?

                                      Throttling proof and battery consumption proof?

                                      Dolphin, Citra, Aethersx2 (and at maximum settings).

                                      Not that crap from the playstore and various markets.

                                      But REAL programs that take advantage of every single Herz and battery in the hardware.

                                      And trotting along, I'll bet you a pizza for the entire editorial staff that you'll have it in less than 15 minutes.

                                      And battery drain.

                                      Because Samsung's real weaknesses have always been two:

                                      - Thermal trottling
                                      - Underpowered battery

                                        How come it has a lower battery score than the S21+ when it does much better in all 3 categories?
