Although many languages mention that the transition to Galaxy The S23 Ultra from the previous model may not make sense, there are already a lot of changes compared to the two-year-old Samsung flagship. Whether we are talking about the display and S Pen, the chip used or the cameras. Of course, there is still the question of price and whether the added features of the new product actually make sense for the money you spend.
It's not just talk and marketing that pays off. Then a person takes a few photos and tells himself the beautiful 30k for this. I won't let myself be fooled like this again. The S22 series was enough for me. Photos are worth 💩
Jiří, the upgrade is not only about the photo and, according to you, the sweltering Snapdragon. There is the S Pen, the shift in display quality and many other factors.
I don't own an ultra, but I have an S 21 so I'm interested in comparing these, whether to switch or not. 😉
Hard to say for the money. But the biggest differences in the form of the internal memory, snapdragon and even from tsmc, a more economical display and a better camera (the question is how much) are good arguments for an upgrade. But exactly, what about the price and some kind of upgrade program?
Of course, these are things we don't officially know yet. The price makes a lot, if Samsung has prepared any upgrade program, it is also yet to be revealed.
