I decided to go with the S23+. I think you have to ask yourself what your requirements are, with anything you buy really. On some level I do agree that the Ultra is worth the relatively small amount of extra money, but it my case, it's still money that I don't need to spend to get what I want out of a phone. I don't see myself using the S-pen. Like you said, the resolution difference is barely noticeable, if at all. 10x zoom is kind of a nice option but one I can live without. If you don't think you need any of the extra features that the Ultra offers, then why spend more? Don't fall for this car dealership mentality of getting upsold on features you don't need. MKBHD talked about a great example with iPad pricing and how Apple walks you up the price ladder with small little increments, each time convincing you to spend just a little more, until suddenly you've arrived at something way beyond what you originally intended to spend and probably don't actually need. I could afford the Ultra, and in this one isolated purchase, spending that extra money would not kill me. But think about a lifetime of making decisions like this (oh just a little bit more and I can get this), and it'll add up.

I got the s23 plus. I hear your points in the video, but there are several reasons to choose the s23 plus iver the ultra. 1. I don't like note line phones, I don't want a s pen, and the boxy form factor 2. The screen is too big for one hand usage. That's pretty much it 😂 but saying it's pointless to buy a s23 plus isn't valid imo. It's the perfect size and I don't like the small size of the s23. Yes the ultra is a better phone, but that doesn't make the plus useless. Yes the s23 plus is 200$ more (I would say it should 100 more), but a bigger screen, faster charger, more storage, and better battery life is worth it.

As someone currently holding a 21 ultra that doesn't care about having best camera or S pen and thinks 6.8 is slightly too big, the S23+ seems perfect. You still get the same processor and similar capability as the ultra with a $200 discount. Im definitely leaning towards the plus.

Guys please do not hesitate to purchase S23+ and you might feel same way like IPhone because it looks like same appearance rather than that big square box.

As I try to figure out which one I want to keep. I like the s23plus it fits in a hand MUCH Better and using your one hand to swipe much easier, battery seems great, the sound on movies is better than the ultra to me. Now the ultra zoom on picture taking is mind blowing, but when will I really care to use it.... once in awhile. And it has 12 ram vs 8 on the plus. But my plus seems great at 8. Do I really need the ultra? It does seem much heavier and wider than my note 8 that I had. According to my scale, my note 8 is 6.6 ounces, the s23plus is 7.0 and the ultra is 8.1 without a case added to it yet. I can feel the weight difference. Even swiping the unlock screen for your password is more effort on the ultra. I cant imagine how I am to run or work out in the gym with this huge ultra. I wish the camera was on the plus then itd be a done deal. But I think Imma have to over look the zoom and go with what makes more sense to my every day comfort and use. And that is the S23plus. I wanted to really like the ultra I do I guess, but its way too big. Period.

Yeah. I've 23+ and it's amazing. My bf got the ultra and was wanting to get me the same one, but I felt his without even a case and there is no way I'm taking on a heavy ass, square phone as my daily driver. Too uncomfortable. If they packed everything in the plus, that would have been amazing. I love the form on the plus much better.

I have an S22 Ultra r/n and just pre-ordered the S23+ because I'm sick of how big this phone is. I am nervous that the size of the plus is going to annoy me too. But I wanted more features than the base, so here I am hoping that I didn't choose wrong

I've considered both of these phones, and the reason I'm leaning towards the s23 plus. I wouldn't really use the s pen and I'm not a fan of boxed screens. I will say I'm surprised battery life is that much better on the ultra. You'd think with the quad hd display on the ultra and the full hd on the s23 plus the battery life would be very similar. I do think most people obsess a bit too much on cameras. How often do people zoom in 30 times? Or actually use 8k? Obviously if you pay more you get a little more. For most regular average consumers, I think it's borderline laughable to say the s23 plus isn't worth it. I'm sure I'm not the only person that wouldn't use the s pen or even care about the slight difference in cameras. And $200 is alot of money to most people. By that logic, the s23 isn't relevant either because it's only $400 less than the ultra. Yet each phone will appeal to some price ranges or preference in design. On a side note, you said we are in December? It's late February bro lol 🤣

Great vid, very honest and unbiased. Money is not an issue if it's 20% more, I think most people will skip note line until they offer your choice of flat or curved display. Rather than making the s23+ they should make 23U with flat or curved display. And stop with the colour choices because people buy cases to cover the backs..

I wanted to pick the S23 Plus or the Ultra in Green because it was the sweet spot for me, but they were out of stock in my local stores, so I ended up getting the regular S23 (256GB) in Green and it still gives all of the premium feel quality and flagship features, but only the difference is the display being smaller, less resolution because of the 1080p panel but is still a gorgeous display, battery is definitely noticeable from the S23 Ultra, but the S23 still gives me 6 or more hours of Screen time when doing moderate use with light gaming sessions at high graphics. The camera is still grear despite not having the 200mp camera. It still gives nice-looking photos in daylight with great focus and color. Ram and storage are adequate for this small device. Overall, even if you are picking the most basic S23 from the lineup, you are still getting a great device that comes with everything that you need for a flaghship device but in a smaller and confortable size.

It's funny because actually, the exact opposite is the true. There's very little reason to go ultra over plus. Especially outside of US.

Gonna have to agree to disagree. The ultra is just way too big. Yes it's not hugely different dimensions to the plus on paper but it feels so much larger in the hand. The S23 Ultra is also pretty heavy. Honestly I'd prefer to get the base S23 model if it weren't for the smaller battery and slower charging.

I think your review is somewhat true in your region but leaning towards influence. People from all over the world will be watching this. And in the uk, they do a 512gb s23+ for £1149 and the ultra here tops out at 512gb at a cost of £1399. So it's £350 more. Saying "just buy the ultra" doesn't take Into consideration everybody's use case and £350 more, is alot to fork out for the ultra that is essentially "slightly" better. The s23+ is a beast in its own right and many would be happy to own it. I just received mine from a s20+ that didn't use the snapdragon so anyone in Europe is going to notice a massive upgrade from previous s phones. You just jumped in a said "buy the ultra" it's just better. Then layed out how similar they are 🤔. From what I can see, the ultra has a better camera and a "better" screen. Most users struggle to tell the difference after 350 pixels per square inch so that's negligible! The thing that put me off the ultra was it's size once in a case, it didnt feel right in my hand, it's sharp corners and curved display that I hated on my s20+! Screen protectors sit better on a flat panel. I had my s20+ and s23+ side by side playing the same demo the s20+ in quad HD and I struggled to tell the difference. If it was there is was placebo and wouldn't be noticed if you didn't have them side by side. Yes buy the ultra as it is the best phone, but not everyone wants a huge phone, and I think the plus is a very good comprise between the s20 and ultra. I have the same chip, same storage, same charging speeds, same cameras unless zooming in above 30× in a package that sits better in my hand on a day to day basis and is £350 cheaper. You sound more of an influencer than a reviewer. Because you just stated what's best without taking into account people's use case. It's like saying telling a family of 6, buy this ferrari, it looks better and its faster! Not exactly practical for that family though is it so its not better "for them". Best is what suits the consumer. Buy what's best for you peeps, don't let influencers spend it for you! Yes the ultra is better, but only if you are a hard-core phone enthusiast, the plus is still a beast and if you want the balance of size vs performance you can't go wrong and you won't be disappointed with either.

Exactly!!! Same case in France without the deal it's 219 Euro of difference with the deal it's 200 IF you take the same stockage for both phones (512GO). Also the comfort is important like i agree that the Ultra seems better but you need to ask yourself if you gonna use the SPen, the Zoom x100 and all the features for some people yes but for the others no.

I currently have the S23 Ultra and at the time of ordering I was wondering if I should get the 23+ or Ultra. In the end, I am regretting getting the Ultra because as a low-medium user, I just don't need the specs of the Ultra. I've had the S22 Ultra and didn't use all those high tech camera functions and I barely used the S pen. The only reason I purchased the S23 Ultra is because on the off chance I had to sign documents, the s pen makes it much easier and I preferred a curved screen to a flat screen. However, the size and weight was very uncomfortable in my hand and I didn't like the boxy feel of it. I spent the $200 more because of the extra functions because other RU-vidrs say it makes more sense, but I don't really use them and I'm now wondering why I have the highest spec phone when all I need are clear photos (not 10x or more zoomed) and a non-laggy phone.

@James Tait the s23+ isn't a bad phone, but it's just not worth it for the price. It's too overpriced it should've costed $799 in the first place, and even if you can get the plus on $749 right now, u can get the ultra on sale for $949, the $200 gap is too small and the difference between plus and ultra is huge for a $200 difference, the plus should've been the ultra minus the spen minus the curve display with rounded corner minus the 6.8" minus WQHD+ maybe but they should've kept the top notch camera and pretty much everything the ultra has they dumbed it down a bit too much I'd say the s23 ultra is $300-$400 better than the plus because I agree that the s23 ultra justifies the extra $300 cost over the pixel 7 pro and I also agree that pixel 7 pro is a better phone than the s23+ while still being cheaper

I have been forcing myself to use the note phone additions of Samsung from 2012 till now with the ultra. For about 10 years I can tell you that I probably found myself using the stylus pen once a month. Unless you regularly sign electronic documents or like playing RPG map games on your phone... Don't get the phone. I'm now happier with my Samsung plus 23 edition. And it all boils down to the phone case and the screen protector.. I can't tell you how many times I've had issues buying screen protectors and phone cases because of the curved screen. And I just realized that by dropping my phone or having small incidents with a cracked screen it has been all attached to the curved edges. You may be able to provide your ultra phone with more protection if you're to get a waterproof built in screen protector phone case.. but all of these designs make the phone so much more bulkier than it is. So do yourself a favor and if you don't mind dialing down on camera quality or screen resolution just resort to a plus because the more conservative design is going to provide your phone with a lot more protection in the long run.

It's simple, get whatever phone makes you happy and what ever fits you and your personality (like a gf or marriage) The s23 puts a smile on my face, every time I touch it. It's a living breathable thing. I just love the shape and size. Because it's the S range, it's powerful enough. Battery is a trickly one though and something to consider, I don't use my phone much or to game. If you do then maybe the other 2 is better. If there is a shape of the phone you like better, then go for that shape. I love flat screen and curve edges, if out of the ultra or the plus, I would choose the plus, just based on the shape. There is no right or wrong answer, do what makes you happy. I wouldn't move to the A range because it doesn't seem powerful enough. 3 years later, it might run too slow

I went for the s23 plus 256 gb version today since it is the right size for me and has good battery life. ultra is too big for me and the price difference is big for me and i dont think i am missing out on the additional features of the ultra which i am not going to use.

I just ordered the plus. I really need to be able to hold the phone in one hand. And the curved display on my current s20 ultra is incredibly annying. I had to download an app in order to disable the touch function on the edges of the display because my hand were just touching and touching and touching.

The S23+ has 800mah difference over the regular S23. And 512gb of storage space option in the US. In terms of longevity the S23 Plus is the way to go, Samsung is gonna lengthen the software updates down the road. You'll be able to keep the S23 for 4-5 years and you'll be able to keep the S23 Plus for 6-7 years. Edit: Lithium batteries degrade overtime thus resulting in users either replacing the battery or just purchasing a new phone. Heat is the leading killer of lithium batteries especially in smaller phones. After years of usage the S23 will have more of a depleted battery than the S23 Plus with an advantage of a extra 800 mAH. So in the year 2027/2028 you'll have to upgrade your S23 while the S23 Plus can keep going for another year or 2.

I just want to make note of the fact Samsung has started making their lower end phones of the same tier (like the S line) to have lower resolution screens when this was not the case years back. The Note 4 in 2016 first had QHD display and when the S10 line came out, the S10 and S10 plus both got the QHD display. Now the smaller model gets FHD and I feel there is no reason they should be going backwards.

I just use both of them, and i choose s23+ for simple reasons explained down: 1. On s23+ more cold in same quest than s23 ultra 2. Curved screen on s23 ultra just destroy the screen protectors and hard to stay, Than s23+ were it s easy to apply and stay still. 3. The felling in hand, i like it more s23+ than s23ultra. 4. And the s23 ultra feels more fragile than s23+ That is my personal opinion.

I really don't get at what point Samsung decided that making curved display to a phone with a pen is a great idea? I had a Note3 loved it. Now i have Note8. Also appreciate it but the curves are driving me crazy. Can't use the pen properly because of them.

I was really only looking for as much of a direct replacement to my S20FE as I could find. It was a solid phone for the last 2.5 yrs and did everything I needed. Just the battery was getting pretty crappy. The S23+ is the same screen size, slightly bigger battery, double the storage, and a few other slight upgrades. Jumped on the samsung deal because normal trade in for the S20FE is $75. With the deal I walked out with a S23+ for $6/mo.

The ultra is plagued with wifi issues. A quick search will inform you. I wish I'd known before purchase. Maybe it'll be solved with a patch, maybe not. I had one and had to get rid of it due to the connectivity issues.

S23 Plus: has longer 8% battery thanks to smaller FHD display, weight 196gm & easier to hold.. plus it's cheaper S23 Ultra: 5 cemara setup, S Pen, Curved 1440p display, Weight 234gm & feels extra premium because it's heavy weight Fun Factor: S23 Ultra comes 12GB RAM - 256GB in most countries for $1200.. & that should be the standard.. 8GB phone for $1200 is just a bad buy.. even chinese mid range now comes with 12GB as standard (OnePlus 11R for example) & only cost $500 Am not comparing Samsung to chinese phones, but am comparing they should give 12GB as standard for anything $1000 & above

Samsung needs to put premium specs in the plus like the ultra the ultra is a big phone i do not like big phones nor do i care for the s pen . The plus would be a perfect size just leave the regular s23 with sub par specs not the plus.

I got the S23 Ultra 512 through my Carrier of many years with a $1000 credit, so basically $300 making it the cheapest and best value. But, it's the first new phone in nearly 5 years for me, upgrade from S8 Active. Honestly, if it wasn't for the Amazing upgrade on the Camera I may have just limped along with this one.

The problem is that in Canada, the 23+ and the 23ultra 12g is a 600$ different . The 8g 23 ultra is 513$ tax in. The 12g is 789$ tax in. The 23+ is 193$ tax in. If I'm going ultra, I want the 12g of ram for that price. Why they even included an 8g option for the 23 ultra is crazy to me.

Good initial review. But after the hype and updates. The s23 + and the s23 are better buys. The cameras are great and actually the battery on the s23 plus is better. I'm fact the s23 battery life is better than the previous years s22 ultra battery life.

I got the 23+ because I hate how boxy the corners are on the ultra just for an extra 2% screen size. The curved edges make it easier to crack the screen and I wouldn't really use the S pen much. I've never needed to zoom in 30x so I'd rather save $200.
@KateKosmo

I've had my galaxy s20 note 5g for over 2 years now and I use the S-Pen once when I got the phone. It sure as hell gave me a heartattack when it would come out the phone by itself & I would have to run around to search for it hoping it didn't fall out the car at the store. Get the 23+!

I don't understand why the s plus's are the least purchased of the series. It seems to be the perfect choice for the average user. It could be that most of the reviewers push the Ultra. It's too big, too boxy, most people don't use or want an s pen, or are camera aficionados. I also didn't want another curved screen. I'm really enjoying my s23 plus! With the trade in discounts it is just the right price.

Let me help you with this. Going to get a S23 plus in a few days from a S9plus. About the ultra. Unless you really need or just want an s pen, It's stupid. I don't need any added weight or curved screen. Camera on the plus is as much or more than I need. About price, Everything is over priced, egges, gas, cars, you name it. So, there you have it. I'm a conservative tight ass.

Went from S10+ to S22+. Now I was looking at the S23 Ultra. It would be free to stay with the S22+ but the charge port isn’t tight enough to get a good charge. Bumping phone stops the charging, and that is any cable.

It's over a $500 price difference from the plus to the ultra in CAD... so I went with the plus 512GB.... I do game a little on my phone and I don't take pictures that often or do crazy videos so I really don't care about the extra garbage on the Ultra... I disagree with you that the differences is that big of a deal between the two... I wouldn't get the standard S23 but the Plus is at a good price point for the added benefits, where as the differences between the Plus and the Ultra are negligible... 0.2" screen size, a stylus and a zoom that only matters at 30x zoom which is just ridiculous to begin with... like why are you zooming in 30x to take a photo? :/ like after taxes the Ultra is $2100 and the Plus is $1600... so a $500 difference for a couple extra bells. Not worth it.... Plus is fine.
