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

[observingi]

I have used it on S22 Ultra. It protects the side of the phone. The application process is quite similar to official Samsung .

Does the screen look dimmer because of the privacy protection?

Thanks

No the privacy protection is different. The one that I have linked is the normal clear screen protector.

Compared to wet film installation, the official SG application was pretty straightforward and easy for me on two of the S22 ultra phones last year. Haven't given it a try on the S23 ultras this year as the neoflex one is going solid! I do have 2 packs of the official SG for future use though.

Yesterday I installed the official samsung screen protector on my wife's S23U. It all went swiftly as expected. Here is the result

exchange of s22 ultra with watch and buds for 115000 and paid difference value of 63k in total

I could have sold s22 ultra myself on Olx and got around 60k instead of 52k but didn't want to go through pain of dealing with people..

What do you folks think about the overall deal? Is it decent when compared to purchasing from Samsung shop (expecially when they stopped offering watch and buds for 5k now)?

Damn. That trade-in value for S22U really sucks. For an incremental upgrade like S23U apart from the battery, I would rather spend that 63k and buy another S22U and fill both my pockets with 2 oversized phones.

All smartphone upgrades are incremental nowadays! S22U to S23U upgrade is nothing groundbreaking, especially in the eyes of average consumer. However, it is more substantial than S20U to S21U and S21U to S22U upgrades (considering camera, battery backup and overall performance) IMO. Afterall, it is not usual to see an Android smartphone almost beating or equalizing latest Apple smartphone in speed and battery backup!

I wish I waited a bit long for the current corp. offer.

The watch 4 classic and buds 2 combo I do not need at all and reselling them is a pain @ time and effort required and even if it's done the end value equates to the special corp. price of S23U inclusive of the bonus & discount.

I want the iPhone font on my handset.
Is it available anywhere in Samsung or Play store and by what name?

Try this one Ringke Dual Easy Wing Film for Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra 5G Screen Protector [2 Pack] Wing Technology Full Coverage High Resolution Easy Application Case Friendly Samsung S23 Ultra Film https://amzn.eu/d/fXxdL78

Thanks for the recommendation!
The installation was quick, easy and glitch free.
The product is good quality and does the job.

I hate it when case makers put the brand logo on the back of the case(excluding the phone manufacturer).

same here
this is lesson learnt for sure
Samsung changed strategy & removed buds/watch & allowed exchange-bank offer together made is so lucrative
Next time for sure gonna wait & ignore pre-book offers
Indeed Cafe guys who gave insurance FOC faced trouble doing it for pre-reserve (5k voucher) guys as they could not extend both offers together.

As far as I know, iPhone font is exclusive to iOS and/or MacOS. Here's a link for the font - SF Pro (https://developer.apple.com/fonts/). I don't know if you can extract the font this...but all the best.
