Samsung's new Galaxy S23 Ultra is here and although it may look familiar, there are some welcomed improvements to the design, cameras, performance, and more. Are these subtle improvements enough to justify an upgrade though?

This is the phone you would buy if you wanted the best Samsung had to offer, with a 200MP camera, a built in S-Pen,
DESIGN
Floating camera design
Boxier edges
Flatter display, but still curved
This is great for S-Pen usage
4 colors - phantom black, cream, lavender, and green
WOW A SIM TRAY
Gorilla Glass Victus 2
Armor Aluminum
6.8” 120Hz QHD+ AMOLED display
