General [INDIA] Galaxy S23 Ultra pre-order, offers etc. discussion thread.

[Virgo_Guy]

I read somewhere that the corporate offer is applicable upto 3 purchases or so per year.

3 units per offer per month for EPP. For corporare+, it's 5 units per person per month. That's how it used to be.

Last weekend I bought screen guard(1 box unit having 2 SGs) and a case. It makes it 2. When put in cart, it shows as 2 products. Not sure if it's considered as 3 by their "system". Or there's something else to the story..

As a UAG fangirl I will say uag. They have some low profile cases too. Albeit slightly pricier.

UAG, I find them too expensive...
Ringke Fusion X seems to be light weight.

That looks decent. I've ordered the official leather case for the s23 ultra. Usually, I prefer samsung official cases or the Spigen ones. Others I've tried are Ringke, ESR, slimcase in recent years. This time Spigen has some cool new designs and I'm hoping they'll be available soon in India.

S23 Ultra bettery life is a significant improvement over S22 and is very close to iPhone 14 Pro Max. (Screenshot from GSMarena.com)

As such,
the vanilla S23 would considerably be a good choice amongst the rest for those looking for a compact flagship. It's been quite a few years now that a compact yet having good battery endurance existed.

As for the S23U vs 14ProM, it's probably safe to say that the latter will still lead somewhat in the real world scenario as people do not spend as much time on calls as much as they spend on browsing internet content using apps and also in video playbacks.

Yeah. Scale the resolution or refresh rate along with the new light processing, at least we have different options to prioritize battery life for screen time.

But gotta admit, A16 is an incredible SoC which is getting incredible battery life with a smaller battery. It is magic indeed.

As heartening it is, the first month with a S flagship is always awesome. It's the second or third fw where suddenly the SOT drops. Been used to it ever since the 1st.
Pro Max is always on a different level. If Samsung can optimise to remain close to 80% of pro max awesomeness that itself will be a feat and a blessing for us.

Is this option available in Indian devices / firmware

I plan to change my CSC to INS & want to make sure

Open source can never be a close one so the former's drawbacks will continue somewhat even if mitigated to the fullest.

Guys, the armor Aluminum for example in the Cream S23U is matte finish right ? I feel like the Stainless Steel on the Iphone 14 Pro looks way more premium and appealing. is it just me or whats your opinion on that ?

98 GB of bloatware is too much in a 256 GB handset

It's not like that.
Try reading this for a better understanding.

One UI 5.1 bloatware does NOT take up 60GB storage on the Galaxy S23 series

Claims of 60GB bloatware on the Galaxy S23 series were wrong.
