This just shows how both companies are insanely good, and neither is really better than the other.

That S23 Ultra camera is going to be scary after a few software updates & feedback. I think the RAW 200MP cropping and zoom will be a game changer for everyday users, it doesn't rely on as many processing tricks like the 14Pro. A great example was a Chinese lantern at night, you could see all the details in a darker shot, the 14Pro was a giant bright blob by comparison. Both great at what they do, I think that Samsung for everyday use really edges it, especially for those who like post editing. It just keeps more detail.

I never understood the need for 10x zoom until my last vacation to Australia. Literally, 10x zoom came in clutch EVERYWHERE. I found myself confidently taking photos of the crocodile feedings, the animals, scenery, crashing waves, and whale watching and literally had at least 5 people in any group we were in wanting me to send them the photos. Not only that, every photo was amazing on the first try. Definitely a confident shooter. Not to mention, object eraser is insane, I was able to remove people from crowded beaches in photos, 2 girls who wouldn't get off a monument, and just remove photo bombers. Not only that, I would come back late to the hotel(s) or get off the overnight flights with over 20% battery after hundreds of photos and videos. This is the go-to phone for real world use and a lot of the 3,000+ photos and 500 4k videos I took would have been possible without the extra features. Especially the SPen that made travel editing super easy. I use both iPhone and Android, but when it comes to travelling, the S23 Ultra takes it hands down. My gf eventually stopped using her 14 PM and just asked me to take all our photos

I'm a huge fan of your videos, especially those phone reviews-they're top-notch! 👍 I've noticed you get your hands on quite a few phones for your content, and it got me thinking: what if you considered doing giveaways with some of those devices after your reviews? I think it would be an amazing way to give back to your dedicated audience. Imagine the excitement of your fans getting a chance to own one of the phones you've featured in your videos! It could create a cool interactive experience and build an even stronger connection with your community. Just a thought from a fan who appreciates your work! Keep up the fantastic content!

@@Gurenn83 yes however its important to change its design every once in a while. Changing the design of a phone is the most visually appealing factor for the everyday consumer. Besides, I dont mean a complete overhaul but a progressive, evolutionary alteration of its design. And it seems as with the apparent plateau of smartphone technology, design will stand as the most distinct component of a new smartphone.

[@zubzero9593]

Seems like samsung copied apple again once more

[@Anchelspain]

Absolutely fantastic! I was really afraid that Samsung would not hit the goals due to using a new sensor that they hadn't manage to optimize the software and other supporting hardware enough for (similar to when the first S20 Ultra with 108 MP main camera still failed to focus properly or get enough detail out of it). But it really seems like the S23 Ultra hits most of the marks and even some. I'm happily waiting for my pre-order to arrive tomorrow or Tuesday! Also, FINALLY getting a Samsung phone with a Snapdragon chipset. I see battery life is positively impacted by that change as well.

[@kyousukekoyomi9160]

Most Phones use Software Processing because their Image is Horrible from the Start. It doesn't Happen on DSLR because it already gives a Good Quality Image.

[@Anchelspain]

@@kyousukekoyomi9160 DSLR cameras also do software processing. All digital cameras have an Image Signal Processor which runs a number of tasks to convert the raw sensor data into an actual picture file, demosaicing the info while applying some de-noising and other clean-ups. RAW files are the closest to an unprocessed image, which you can also obtain on smartphones. That said, it's true that smartphones apply more software processing than DSLR cameras do, but that's not necessarily "because their sensors can't provide quality pictures. Quite the opposite, they are meant to make it so that consumers can take photos in auto mode without having to tweak settings to get the right picture, letting the phone do the white balancing on its own, taking multiple exposures to automatically produce an HDR photo, recognizing faces and adjusting the skin tone... Basically they exist to let people without much photography knowledge consistently produce really good photos. You want to skip that because you know how to handle it yourself afterwards? Then just shoot in Pro mode and keep the RAW files.

Thank you for the amazing review! I would love to see astrophotography included as a category, though, because that's one of the things which are very hard to do decently for cameras, but one of the key reasons for me (probably not the only one) to buy a phone. If I see a beautiful nightsky, with stars, moon and possibly shooting stars, I want to be able to capture it properly. It's mesmerizing. Imagine a lovely summernight with your beloved ones outside, staring into the sky with a drink in your hand in awe. Whenever I take photos, I want to capture the moment, the experience. And the nightsky is absolutely beautiful imo.

[@flo_h_96]

The Vivo X90 Pro+ which is unfortunately not sold globally at least for now, is definitely the best phone for astrophotography. Tried it myself yesterday and it's amazing.

[@jasonlee4267]

@@flo_h_96 to be fair it absolutely should be, it has a 64mp sensor, and a much wider aperture, if Samsung increased its own telephoto lens resolution and gave it a wider aperture it would massively improve the current 10X camera, and like he said on here, the 100x has basically had no real updating in 4 years, added more as a selling gimmick and afterthought

[@flo_h_96]

@@jasonlee4267 I agree partially! Altough it has a 64mp sensor that doesn't mean automatically that it is better then a 10 mp optical. That's also down to software. But as Vivo software is one of the best if not the best therefore it is better. And yes the Samsung would be way better if it had a better sensor and wider aperture. I still think having a 3x and 10x zoom camera is the wrong choice unless the 3x also has a 64mp sensor to be able to get good results at for example 9x. As it is for now the gap is to big and results of zoom levels in between are very bad

For a long time in many regards the iPhone's only competitor was the previous iPhone. In the recent years that seems to be changing. Apple got a bit too comfortable. Samsung has been making superb phones (one of the best android phones acutally) since the early 2010s. Now they got to a point where the only difference between the iPhone and the S/S Ultra series is the operating system. Nice one Samsung! :)

When I initially got the 14 pro max, I was completely unimpressed with the camera quality as in most cases it was significantly worse looking than the 13 pro max. But when I downloaded the ProCamera app it gave me full 48 mpx images without being in the raw format. The difference was night and day and until apple lets users take still photos in the full resolution I will never go back to the stock camera app.
