The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy, the fastest Snapdragon ever. It features an accelerated Qualcomm® Kryo™ CPU with up to 3.36GHz peak speeds, providing superior performance when you need it most.

February 17, 2023 Announced and unveiled at the Galaxy Unpacked event on February 1, 2023, it aims to redefine the smartphone experience for users. With its US release date of February 17, 2023, the Samsung S23 Ultra is set to revolutionize the world of smartphones.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Hardware And Design Obviously, the S23 Ultra is a big phone – bigger even than the Pixel 7 Pro, or the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Just like with its predecessor, the screen is 6.8 inches across, and the frame is made of armor aluminum. Gorilla Glass Victus 2 now covers both the display and the back.

The Galaxy S23 Ultra is unapologetically big, with a 6.8-inch screen. The Galaxy S23 Ultra is unapologetically big, with a 6.8-inch screen. If the Samsung S22 Ultra was the ultimate evolution of a slab-style smartphone, then the Galaxy S23 Ultra is a victory lap - everything that the S22 was and a little extra.

Memory and other components make up the remaining costs. So, why does the Galaxy S23 Ultra cost so much? The answer is simple: it's a premium device that's packed with cutting-edge technology. The high-performance SoC, large and bright display, and powerful camera system all contribute to the high price tag.

On the standard S23 there is just the triple camera setup. The differences between the two are that on the S23 Ultra, we get a 200 megapixel main camera which is pixel binning (improves the quality of images taken in low-light environments). There is also a 10x periscope lens on there for that extra zoom.

As Samsung made it clear during the launch - the S23 Ultra now comes with the promise of four generations of Android OS upgrades. Keep in mind Google only offers three years. Samsung has also promised five years of security updates for the S23 series which means you can effectively use the Ultra for five years.

That 200MP camera is as good as advertised The primary reason to turn to the Galaxy S23 Ultra is as plain as the big camera lens staring back at you on the back of Samsung's new phone. It's the 200MP main camera sensor - easily the most talked-about new feature among the many Samsung is introducing with the S23 family.

Samsung has promised 4 years of major Android OS updates and 1 additional year of security updates for a total of 5 years worth of updates.
