S23 battery life

In Korean but you just need to look at the numbers

Presumably the only fair comparison to make with the S23 is the S22 5G. In which case it's a healthy improvement in battery life? What's the 101 hours, standby?https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS23/comments/10u81e...

If you have TopCashback you can get another 12% off the final price. Where did you find a referral code?
You can tryhttps://twitter.com/search?q=i.soreto.com&src=...
Or its much easy to find someone on this thread who will PM their soreto link after they have ordered

I'm staring to do exactly that with my Fold 4 and having to work across multiple sites. Rather than take the laptop plug in the Fold into the Hp docks we have at work. Company portal means I can now essentially access all my work files from the Fold, however annoying DEX still only does single screen support, when am use to x3 screen working now.
Is this a standard USB-C dock, does the phone recognise keyboards and mice connected to the same dock?50% off S23 for any BT Group employees: https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/bteeplusnetopenre...

Battery life on S23U seems way better than S22U! Used to be lucky to get through the day without charging, but I charged this over night Thursday night and still got over 20% now.
Always the same with a new phone. JagYouAre said:
S22U battery was always poor, I never had more than a day out of it from new. Apparently there's some new battery efficiency stuff going on in the new one so not sure if that would also improve the S22U with a software update.
I believe the battery life improvements is all down to the Snapdragen gen 2 processor. My Fold with the gen+1 processor has a BETTER battery life than my old Exynous S21U despite the Fold having a smaller physical battery and larger display(s) to drive.Marques really rates what Samsung has done with the S23U, I suspect I will be very tempted to by the Fold 5 but needs must, saving ££££ is now our main goal due to starting work on a major house extension.

Finally ordered in green 512 version. Traded in an old iphone 6 for £150 off, 10% accessory discount with screen protector, 10% referral code, used Samsung reward points (£16) and 10% cashback via Quidco. Sold my S22 Ultra on ebay for £699 with 80% off fees selling offer. Less than £200 to actually pay
Good work. I managed to get the £150 off for an ancient motorola I had at the back of a drawer, 10% off the whole order with a cheap screen protector, and £60 cashback from Topcashback. Annoyingly I didn't realise I could layer a 10% referral discount until it was too late. Unless I want to go through the hassle of cancelling and re-ordering. Where are you seeing the 10% quidco cashback btw? I can only see 2.25%
Anyone got any good quality slimline case recommendations?

Spigen is a good brand for cases
I dropped Samsung before xmas after more than 10yrs as a happy customer due to the cost of their flagship phones and the short support life of their cheaper ones.
Got a Pixel 6a instead, a good phone that does have some minor limitations but is solid where it counts. Overall great value and has several years of support from Google (assuming they don't renege on that promise). I paid £300 and got a free pair of pixelbuds thrown in.
The specs of the S23 haven't made me think I made a mistake. Yes it seems significantly better than the 6a in some respects, esp the screen. But is it more than 2.5x as good? No.
As an aside, Google's pricing is v aggressive right now. They are clearly trying to buy marketshare. Can't see them making much - or even any - margin at current prices.

Pixel 6a a good phone for sure - have played around with one. Happy with the S23 Ultra purchase though especially as all the discounts trade in, selling another phone, cashback etc means I only have to dig out £158Got a Pixel 6a instead, a good phone that does have some minor limitations but is solid where it counts.
