7 Must Have Accessories for Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra

[@PeteMatheson]

What other must-have accessories did I miss?

[@CF44422]

Basically Samsung own Harman International which owes AKG. Another fun fact, Harman own JBL, so technically Samsung own JBL

[@supaboi9]

You missed the gamesir x3! The snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is crazy powerful and amazing for gaming!

[@SamTheBattleshipp]

A phone stand to use while watching videos or om video calls. There are so many varieties so I can't name a specific one cause mine was on clearance and not branded.

[@jdubbuttm]

His Apple Watch. Lol

[@evanwilliams4060]

could you go over the sd card issue and if there is a work around?

[@Shinobi_6]

AKG, the once very famous Austrian headphone manufactor company, was sold to Samsung years ago. Samsung kicked most of the original staff out of the company and transfered the development to cheap east european countries. So it is basically the name AKG they advertise. The former original AKG staff has established a new brand called 'Austrian Audio, developing and selling high quality headphones.

[@PeteMatheson]

Intersting! Time to do some reading 😀

[@bladedoom3]

I just tought toate akg are nota wat they supuse to be , thanks the light so goodbye akg welcome Samsung akg is just marketing name out of original company

[@brabb1t_526]

AKG was never sold to Samsung. Harman Kardon, which is the parent company to AKG, was sold to Samsung, and I'm really interested where you got the information that Samsung kicked out most of the original staff.

[@rgt5402]

Interesting 🤔

[@fable2830]

Yeah no don't listen to this guy I don't know who his sources are but they're definitely on to something we don't know lol.whar Samsung bought was the parent company Harman Kardon, agk is still what is always was and still makes and produces high quality sound so I don't know where bro got this bs from

[@RizkyBambangWiratmoko]

fun fact: you can end the workout on the watch by pressing the lower button, or if you want to pause it temporarily, you can do it by holding the lower button. another fun fact: you should try and explore samsung's modes and routines. It literally changes my life. It's not only function well by itself on my phone, but also integrates well with my watch, buds, and smartthings equipment. One example is when I'm going to work, turn off AC, Light, change phone wallpaper, change watchface, turn on DND and turn off WiFi. I did the opposite while came home. Or the one that IMO even better, when my watch detect that I'm sleeping, it automatically turn on DND, turn off the light, and turn on the alarm, all of them happened automatically.

[@abrahamalbert-onajobi9137]

It's so incredible I love Bixby Routines.

[@hpstorian]

What is your phone wallpaper haha

[@DeeArrFit]

On the Galaxy watch, you can also end the workout by pressing the back button and selecting finish workout. The swiping does work seamlessly for me though, never had any issues swiping to end a workout.

[@Thedoctorjosh]

Magbak case + the dome screen protector + the magsafe popsocket is the best combination of accessories I've ever had for a phone

[@PeteMatheson]

🙌🏼 Epic !!

[@ahzidag394]

On my Galaxy Watch 4 I can bring the finish/pause workout menu by short pressing the back key. I'm pretty sure you can do that too. Or set it to go to previous screen in the wear app. Watching that diagonal swipe was painful!

[@PeteMatheson]

🤣 thanks! Will give that a try next time!

​@Pete Matheson it is very imporant thu to keep in mind that there's almost not that big of a difference beetween a 25 watts charger compared to a 45 watts charger to be honest... thank you so much for making this viedio I gained a few more knowledge about this awesome product!

[@montgomeryb04]

Yeah even on my gear s3 frontier all I have to do to end a workout is press the back button 😂 to each their own I guess

[@BeyondtheBoringLab]

I always press the back button.

[@Huskie_BOSG]

@@PeteMatheson Hey also for the galaxy watches you're better off swiping from the bezel to the screen. It sounds weird cause you'd think that it will imput as a back gesture but for some reason it "knows" what you're trying or need to do on that specific screen so i guess it replaces it for what's more important. The bezels on your Galaxy watch has more function than you think.

[@druec2863]

Great video! I've been a Samsung phone user for a while but I recently started getting into the ecosystem with the Buds2Pro and the Tab S8 Plus. For this reason, I highly recommend that people go for the 65w charger which is only slightly bigger. This allows you to charge your phone at its full 45w potential and a secondary device like the buds, watch, or tablet. Also, like you, I love the Buds2Pro but they wouldn't stay in my ears so I have the memory foam tips. It works perfectly for me.

[@PeteMatheson]

Thank you! Great to hear the tips work for you too 😎

[@AM-dn1iq]

Would the 65 what damage the device tho?

[@druec2863]

@A M Your device won't be damaged. The charging brick has the capacity to charge up to 65w but will adapt to the capabilities of whichever device is connected. Especially if you're purchasing a high quality charger like UGreen. That's what I have.

[@markdavid3316]

The foam tips made my ears hurt. Tread carefully

[@CG-Bloxfruit]

That Whitestone glass isn't top to bottom ,there is a massive gap at the top. It is extremely expensive for what it is,however, on my pixel 7pro ,the glass protector is almost scratch free and after 4 months of use, it lost the oleophobic coating on one side from all the scrolling 😊. This is a premium glass ,crystal clear

[@PeteMatheson]

Yeah I may have not lined it up properly, lol. There's only a small gap if you're not an idiot lilke me 🤣

@@markcamburn7395 I have no issue with it using UV screen protectors!

[@jeromegold3216]

Great content. My favorite screen protector is Whitestone dome film screen protector. It's the only film screen protector that uses a UV light. Which makes the film feel like glass and as smooth. I also have the samsung Triple charger. Works fantastic. As for the plugin charger, I have the samsung 45w charger. But you need to let people they need a 45w compatible wire that give the true 45w.

[@PeteMatheson]

Thanks for the info!

[@PeteMatheson]

No issues at all!

[@SuperSean1985]

Speaking on the Watch 5 workout swiping issue this is why I HATE that Samsung got rid of the physical bezel on that itteration, as I NEVER swipe on my Watch 4 except for getting rid of notifications and opening the app draw/ settings from the watch face. This is the sole reason I did not get the Watch 5, and if they continue to go Bezeless then I probably won't ever upgrade at least not for a LONG time.

[@dancefan831]

If you are using a screen protector that has a circle for you to place over the fingerprint sensor area, it usually takes a few days to a week for the area to completely adhere to it. You can usually tell because the entire area will be as dark as the rest of the screen protector so that the outline of the circle is almost invisible. If not, it makes using the fingerprint scanner hit or miss depending on how/ where you place your finger. My favorite screen protectors are the ones by invisashield. Easy to put on and works great with the fingerprint sensor because they don't have that nuisance circle to put over that area.

I use Skinomi screen protector. The only downside is that it is plastic and can be tricky getting it to stick to the curved sides. I like it cause it's installed using a water/soap mixture you spray on the film and screen then press the extra water and bubbles out. It protects the screen from scratches and my S-pen works fine, just don't press too hard or you'll have indents for a while till it heals back. Lol
