I’m currently pondering a switch from my iPhone 13 Pro Max to a Samsung S23+.
Has anyone here made a similar switch? I’d really appreciate any insights or advice you might have.
How has your experience been with the S23+ compared to the iPhone? Is the change worth it?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences!
I went from an iPhone 14 pro max to the s23+ and I LOVE IT!
I would not upgrade from 13 pro max. It has one of the best battery life on the market better than the 14 or 15 pro max. My ultra lasts me for 8 hours and the 13 pro max use to last me about 10 to 11 hours. I don’t know if it’s because I use the Samsung more or it’s something else.
Is the change worth it?
For what? what are you hoping to gain? The drawbacks and benefits of Android vs iOS are well documented.
In terms of battery, it’s definitely a upgrade
I did that change and I will Just say both phones are great. Wouldnt consider it as huge upgrade for sure. I think if it is not about dislike ios then its waste of money
No
Since they got rid of the micro SD card, the question should be “Is the s23 just an iPhone?”
worse cameras and slightly lower screen resolution, the rest is an upgrade
I think you should consider S23 Ultra. If it’s not urgent, I’d wait for S24 Ultra. S23+ is a good device for sure, but 13PM still rocks today.
I went from 13 Pro to S23 ultra. Biggest reason was because I hate iOS. but my phone battery lasts me all day into the half of the next day with my usage. Apart from that cameras are pretty similar. You can look up the difference and both make good cameras so to me it’s negligible.
it really depends on how much you like ios
i personally think it sucks shit, so an old s2 would be an upgrade
the S24+ would be the real upgrade, an S23+ tho not really
Yea, huge.

Thank you for this AlohaAkahai.
Next year will be the game changer for phones. You only buy now if you HAVE TO. And I pretty much sold you on staying on iPhone
I don’t think it’s worth it to you to upgrade yet unless you want a Samsung phone.
