I bought a new phone after having the old one for 3 years and as a treat to myself. It was an S22 Ultra. I regret buying it as the improvements are very minor compared to my old phone, and definitely not worth the massive hike in cost.
The camera is better but tbh, I barely notice it as its mostly a few photos for memories. I'm not printing them on canvas or anything so no point really having such high quality photos. Will definitely hold onto this one for as long as i can
I like mine, but that camera is so stuttery. Do you have the snapdragon variant?
I had a crappy honor 5x which had a fake camera and a bunch of fake features, also it had some Spyware on it that caused me to have to report fraudulent charges on my bank account and eventually the battery got spicy. Got a s20 ultra at launch and actually love this thing. It'll last me a few years more.
About to enter the same boat, I have the Note 20 Ultra and its on the eve of losing security update support. Don't necessarily want to upgrade but i feel like i don't have a choice.
Going to look at something like the Nothing Phone 2, it's not nearly as expensive as the S23 Ultra (which is my direct upgrade path) but is plenty fast enough and has at least some interesting quirks and features.
Tbh, i could get a used digital camera + a mid range android phone and probably out perform the flagship Samsung.
My Samsung s22 has sooo many bugs compared to my old pixel phone Def not worth it Samsung software has really gone downhill
Yeah seems like it, im starting to think id rather have the "subpar" camera of the Nothing Phone 2 than deal with the Samsung skin (which i end up covering with a launcher anyway)
