**Samsung Galaxy S23 Review: A Flagship with Great Improvements**

The Samsung Galaxy S23 is a flagship smartphone that has been improved upon from its previous iteration, the S22. One of the standout features of this device is its camera system, which has been significantly enhanced compared to the S21 and S22 series. The camera performance on the S23 is impressive, with excellent results in portrait mode, low-light shots, and other challenging scenarios. This is made possible by the phone's triple ISP (Image Signal Processor), which provides faster and more efficient image processing.

**Pricing: A Big Increase**

The pricing of the Samsung Galaxy S23 has increased significantly compared to its predecessor, with the base model starting at 128GB of storage priced at ₹15,000. The S23 Ultra, on the other hand, is priced at ₹24,999 for the 256GB variant, which is a significant increase from the previous generation. However, Samsung is offering discounts and promotions on certain models, including the S23 Plus and Ultra, which can bring the prices down to ₹8,000 or even lower. The S23 Plus is priced at ₹9,95,000 for the 256GB variant.

**Storage and RAM: Faster and More Efficient**

The Samsung Galaxy S23 comes with a faster storage type, UFS 4.0, on the higher-end models, which provides significantly faster read and write speeds compared to the UFS 3.1 on the base model. The phone also features LPDDR5X RAM, which is fast and efficient. In terms of performance, the S23 delivers excellent results, thanks to its powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip.

**Battery Life: A Big Improvement**

One area where the Samsung Galaxy S23 excels is in battery life. Unlike previous flagships from Samsung, this phone has a fabulous battery life that easily lasts a full day and even beyond. This is due to various design tweaks and optimizations made by Samsung, which have resulted in a more efficient power delivery system.

**Conclusion: A Great Flagship with Excellent Performance**

Overall, the Samsung Galaxy S23 is a great flagship smartphone that offers excellent performance, camera capabilities, and battery life. While the pricing has increased significantly compared to its predecessor, the discounts and promotions offered by Samsung make it an attractive option for those looking to purchase this device.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhi guys this is Ranjit and in this video I'll be giving you my first impressions about the newly launched Samsung Galaxy s23 series I was actually at the launch event in Bangalore and sorry for the late video I got a little bit busy with some family stuff but now I had a little bit more time to think about this device so let me share some of the information and of course I would say uh the highlight of the show was the ultra that is s23 ultra in fact uh last week I had asked you guys which was the smartphone that you're looking forward to the most and many of you were commenting that it was the s23 ultra and in terms of looks I would say it looked very similar to the s22 ultra but again it's a lot of improvements under the hood in fact now I have caught the device itself but I can't talk too much about it I've started testing it I'll post the samples Etc all those things are on Ninth memory that's the Embargo for India but let me quickly go over some of the thoughts and what they were present acting on it and again yes the Highlight was that 200 megapixel camera sensor on it and yes it's definitely an improvement I will say again wait for the samples that I'll post on Ninth and one thing I noticed is that even on the event uh it's regarding the ois yes s23 s22 Ultra and all the others also had OS but I hugely feel that the OS actually has improved uh quite a bit in fact earlier series used to just move the lens used to move just about 1.5 degrees now it moves about three degrees so it's a massive Improvement I would say even if your hands are a little bit shaky the footage actually looks very good and in fact that translates also in 8k video we had 8K video in a lot of smartphones earlier but now I would say with this s23 Ultra I feel finally you can actually shoot decent quality 8K video so that was a bigger and also uh they were touting about as you can see from the screenshot they have a larger Vapor shaving uh for cooling and all those things and I would definitely say that even with the what do you say samples we had at the event the device when we were playing around continuously for 20 20 25 minutes also the handset was not getting warm or something so that's actually a big Improvement I would say and that's that's all also thanks to the Snapdragon 8 chain 2 but I'll talk about that a little bit later because this is not the standard Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 this is specially actually made for by Qualcomm as you can see they call this uh the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy and these are actually slightly higher overclocked ships compared to the regular Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 both in the CPU and in the GPU uh so slightly and the good thing is that the we get the same chip on the s23 s23 plus and the ultra so it's not like just the ultra it's going to get that so that way it was nine and also again they're talking a lot about the GPU improvements and all those things yes gaming also it does have of course it has the fastest adreno GPU so gaming is very good and because of the vapor chamber again the heating is a lot less on this device and um they were again with every Samsung Flagship the screens were very very good it's the same case even with this one and the good thing is that in terms of Maximum brightness all the three models go up to 17 15 Nets and uh it's actually very good even in outdoor conditions it's easily visible and this screenshot gives you an overview about the camera differences again the regular ones have a 15 megapixel camera the main camera is that 200 megapixel and you have higher zooms on the ultra of course now before I give you a little bit more thoughts about that and the pricing info uh here are some of the Snippets that I took with other media personalities that were at the event and guys remember this is all before the India pricing was really uh released now we know the India pricing I'll show you that but here are some of the samples uh shots that I took mini interview kind of a thing from other YouTubers and other media personalities here and you played around with the ultra and everything for two minutes right yeah so what is one thing that you think this is like different on this one uh the most different thing is obviously your camera is obviously I'm excited to test it out okay the pixel 7 and the new iPhones so camera two things are there is it photograph or in video what mostly videos see iPhones have already been better videos right so I really want to see eps20 oh that's something they have kind of been on the other side compared to iPhone so that's something I'm really excited because there's also now HDR supporting 4K 60fps yes the video they were talking a lot about low light videos so we have to actually test it we didn't play around with it it's locked we haven't done anything so Gogi is here so Gogi what's your first reaction of the s23 ultra let's talk about the ultra because that was the highlight so what is your first reaction there is not much of a change you know like the main highlight is the camera okay so I'll have to check that camera okay so camera there are two parts video and uh static photographs so what are you looking forward to starting study photo yeah okay that's interesting many of them were talking about the video Let's see what video like I'll have to check it out yeah because here like we can't judge a deal we can't judge it and what do you think about the pricing the last one was about 10 I think so this might be higher Maybe it's like five or 10K we know it in a day or two I guess with us so first impression of s23 what is different how do you feel in this one compared to the s2d2 ultra so it's a little bit flat okay so what do you think we are talking a lot about the camera so what is the thing uh yeah that's what we didn't test but do you think that video they were talking a lot about the video in the presentation so that is something do you think that will be important but what do you think about that foreign so what you can do is I would say it has been greatly improved from the previous area like there is a very because that was one big thing um Android smartphones were definitely I would stay still missing in a lot of smartphone but I would say it is it is matching a standard you can shoot longer uh so that was pretty interesting and now we know the pricing we'll talk about but okay stories I wanted to know uh tell you guys that if you're just going for the base Samsung Galaxy s23 the base storage starts at 128 gigabytes whereas for the s23 plus and the ultra the base to rate is 256 gigabytes and also in terms of the storage type if you're getting the 256 gigabyte variant of storage that's ufs 4.0 whereas the base variant of the s23 that comes with 128 gigabyte is ufs 3.1 us 3.1 is still very very fast but again with the ultra and the s20 s23 plus we are getting that ufs 4 storage which is amazingly fast and this is also having lpddr5x RAM on all the devices so General performance is actually very very good on these devices and again I can't show you the samples as of now but definitely I would say in terms of camera performance they have done a lot and I would say the chip is also helping because this Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in terms of AI is also a lot more refined and it has actually triple ISP if I recall and that does a lot of computation in real time which was not possible in earlier phones hence even some of the tricky stuff like portrait video and stuff we have seen a lot of smartphones here it actually comes out very very good and the camera samples another again I'm still testing this device so I can't comment exactly with the figures but initial uh experience I would say the battery life is also fabulous that was always my very with these flagships they just didn't give to that good battery life but here I would say battery life is again a big big Improvement and certainly a way improved compared to the s22 ultra and also I didn't face any I have as I told you heating issues because the bigger Vapor chamber and generally the Snapdragon 8 gen 2. and now let's talk about the pricing let's talk about the Big Brother that's the s23 ultra and as you can see the pricing has increased quite a bit the last version was around one like 10 000 or something this is almost one like 25 000 so certainly a bump I would say uh but on Amazon I was checking as you can see with the screenshot with various credit cards like SBI uh ICICI htmc you can get 8 000 rupees off so if you're planning to I don't know how long these offers are there because these are launch offer so if you're definitely going with this go with that and for the ultra and stuff if you pay a little bit more if I recall 5000 rupees more you can get the Galaxy watch 4 LTE and even the Galaxy buds too and I feel that is a very good deal if you were always looking for those devices for that 5000 rupees extra I feel that's a good deal so definitely if you're planning to buy it take advantage of these offers I don't know that 8 000 rupees of offer is applicable how long so what I'll do is I'll leave the link of Amazon India also here and also the Samsung's official Link on Samsung had sent to me because this is a review unit official link I'll also link that and regarding the pricing of the s23 plus this has increased to 9 95 000 but as actually the plus comes with 256 gigabytes of storage uh the s203 regular is about 15 000 rest so that was regarding the pricing yes certainly the pricing uh has increased quite a bit I was expecting a surprising bump uh about what do you say about nine to ten thousand so I was expecting about 120 to be frank and with offers and all those things it would have come around to about 112 or 113 but yeah it's slightly on the higher side but that's what it is so uh I don't know I can't talk too much about the performance of this device and all those things so stay tuned to the channel I will be posting a video on Ninth afternoon uh whenever the Embargo is lifted there I can talk a lot about this one and certainly I would say the currently testing the s23 ultra and it has been actually impressing using it with my primary SIM for the past two days anyways guys that's it for now thanks for watching this is Ranjit and I hope to see you in my next video take care guyshi guys this is Ranjit and in this video I'll be giving you my first impressions about the newly launched Samsung Galaxy s23 series I was actually at the launch event in Bangalore and sorry
