Samsung’s Galaxy S23 launched not too long ago, and we’re starting to see discounts on the company’s flagship series of phones. The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra promises strong imaging capabilities, with Samsung’s “Nightography” for low-light photos and the controversial 100X Space Zoom. Outside of the 200MP sensor, this year’s upgrades are more modest: You still get a similar design to the previous S22 series, and the faster, more efficient processor is a nice quality-of-life upgrade. So while it might not be worth it for someone to upgrade to last year’s flagship, if you’re coming from an older phone, the S23 promises fast speeds, 5G connectivity, and a great camera experience.
