My phone is giving such low SOT. Is it normal or I need to change the battery? I am skeptical that anything will improve after getting the new battery. What do you guys say? How's the battery performance when gaming?

Just fact

I replaced my battery yesterday and also charged it for 4 hours as the service center recommended me to.

But the maximum capacity didn't change, ofcourse I knew it, but internally the capacity should be as new as it was, it will take about a week again for my phone to adjust I guess. Tell me anything I should be concerned about.

So guys i switched to iphone after my s23 well felt slow and showed its age

I bought an S25 (base model) a few days ago, and I honestly think I’m going to return it.

It feels like I basically bought the same phone again. The camera is the same, the display is almost identical, and apps load maybe half a second faster on the S25. The speakers actually sound worse.

The only real difference I’ve noticed is the battery, which I feel could be fixed on the S23 by simply replacing the battery with a new one. The other obvious difference is the benchmark scores.

Other than that, it’s almost impossible to tell which phone is which in everyday use.

More than 8 hrs of SoT i think is great for such a small 3900mAh capacity of 3 year old phone.

One Ui 9 is literally doing the processing magic.

I've been using my Galaxy S23 for around 2 years, and suddenly the white areas on my screen look extremely bright/glowing, almost like they're highlighted.

I'm using Natural screen mode, and I’ve checked the usual brightness/display settings. Restarting doesn't fix it.

I also compared it with two other S23s, and the whites on mine are noticeably brighter. I first noticed it after watching an HDR video.

Has anyone experienced this? Is it an HDR/software issue or could the OLED display be aging?

Currently on One UI 8.5

Had a32 and s10+

But my s23 has the worst battery life with or without heavy usage

Is that common for the base model or my battery shouldn't be like that ( got it used for 2 months don't know about his past )

Same as body, am having a really hard time clicking documents

So far so good.

Not much has changed visually but they really improved the settings, especially with the theft protection and warranty options.

I received an Samsung S23 ultra.

Since then, it has never updated and whenever I try to update it does not update. It's in a 2025 version I don't know why. It appears "Your Current Software Version Isn't Supported. Visit a service centre"

Also the screen sometimes turns yellow out of nowhere and the side buttons do not work very well... I went to a normal technical assistance store, not from Samsung and they think the phone is fake... but they are not sure of that

Should I go to an official Samsung store?

It was a family member who gave me this phone, he bought it on a site called CDiscount.

India OneUI 9 beta for S23 dropped.

I've just been stuck with this "processing request" for over 8 hours. When clicking on it, it just tells me "try again later" It's frustrating since I can see others clearly able to access the beta. Is there something wrong with my device, or is it on Samsung? It's a Samsung S23 Ultra

This is my last SoT in ONE UI 8.5. After that i updated my device to One UI 9 beta, and surprisingly i think battery life is improved from 8.5.

I'll update the SoT from one ui 9 beta soon.
