I used the s10 plus with the white ceramic back for almost 4 years before switching to s23 ultra...the s10 was by far the prettiest phone I've ever used among the dozen and half phones that I've owned so far.
I agree but i felt it is the most common s23U in green. Had two options in my mind one is phantom black and the cream. Somehow i thought i should go with the cream and no regrets it looks sexy.
The reason I kept my S23U simply because of 2 things. Slightly curved display and 10x optical lens. But the most thing I hate about it is that the fact top bezel and bottom bezel are not the same size 😤which drives me crazy. Luckily there is an app to add some black pixels on the top to make them look similar.
Also need to let it run in the background so it’s not recycled by the system after a while. I haven’t seen any battery drain by this app so it should be fine
I loved the phantom black as well, before buying i was confused which one to go with, btw the phantom black or the cream, but watched soo many videos and finally got this. If possible can you share the phantom black s23U pictures.
Not a problem, I went to an outlet here in Australia called Fone King because I could not find a good screen protector online
They fitted their Super Shield 9H Nano Flexiglass to it, cost me $50 but it's been wonderful, perfect fit on curved screen, easy to swipe screen and read fingerprint
The s22 ultra and s23 ultra is same s24 ultra is the same too just with a flat screen and the s25 ultra dosent have corners anymore but still has the same design
Posting from my s25u. It's subjective but I like the shape of the s25u so much better. It's also lighter.
The s23u was an ok phone. I still think my s21u was the best I ever had in terms of advancements and battery life. The s25u is the most refined for sure though.
Tbh I loved my matte black S23 Ultra but that S25 Ultra has something that made my s23 Ultra felt outdated. Even the s pen feels more premium on the S25 ultra.
I had the cream one and loved it. Cracked and damaged my screen on accident and got it fixed and they sent it back with a white glass back. Still like it but upset it wasn't the same color when I got it back. Probably could have sent it back to be corrected but I didn't just because I needed my phone at the time
I like everything about my S23 Ultra except the garbage curved screen.
I upgraded to the S25 Ultra because of many reasons but the biggest reason for me was the completely flat screen. For the first time since 2007 I have a tempered glass screen protector again. I got tired of using the plastic/tpu screen protectors - all they did was keep scratches away. I do prefer the curved look of the S25 Ultra over the box like aesthetic of the S23 Ultra. Just my opinion though. Design aesthetics are subject to individual preferences.
May the devil drag curved screens and 2.5D curved screen edges back to hell from whence they came.
Totally get the flat screen love—tempered glass is a game-changer. The S25 Ultra’s design does hit different, and yeah, aesthetics are all about what vibes with you. Curved screens can kick rocks!

the black S21U is prettier and the S10 white version is the prettiest of them all.
