The S23 is fairly alone at this point and I get the feeling Samsung doesn't bother with an Ultra variant in a smaller form factor simply because of how few people buy the highest end small phones. It's strange but there seems to be a lot more variety once you get to the midrange and below. Are they all good? Not necessarily but at least phones like this give some variety with aspects like the fingerprint reader, something all other flagships place in the display AFAIK.

Everything is absolutely PERFECT with this phone still no one will buy it because it is not a popular brand as Apple, Google or Samsung.

Great video, but the Pixel 7 is definitely MUCH bigger than this phone

Sold.

[@BenNuProductions]

Might be? It litterally is.
