Check the camera, if it's made of plastic it's fake and if it's glass check the color (blue= fake). If it passes the camera test, go to a dark room then set to max brightness then open a black screen (complete black= real, grayish= fake)

It takes an hour to fully charge with a good charger and it’s super smooth, even an s9 is smoother than what you described, and you may need to do a proper reset or check if it’s a good one at a service center

There is nothing wrong, phone does not heat up. Never had any issues with it or performance since 2023 february 2nd. Best device I've ever owned. Only downside samsung oversharpening on stock camera app but we have gcam so it's not an issue. If you know how to find gsmarena forum to spread n*n s*nse, I'm sure you can try to find a solution to your "problems" because 99% of problems comes from b*d users.

                    "This is a very very common problem with this phone that people wrote about from the month it was released."

                    No it's not common. It's common for people to cr* what they don't understand. I'm glad you'll be on another brand, then you'll realize that the brand wasn't the problem

                      After 2 years of having this phone I'm about to buy a new one and it's not going to be samsung. I don't understand how are you all happy with this phone? Maybe you've never used another brand so you can't compare? This was my first samsung in 15 years and the last forever :D Sooo many random glitches and flaws I couldn't believe it's a smartphone from 2023 and not 2008. Most annoying thing I'd say is random overheating that only a shutdown could temporarily fix. I have used up half broken 8 year old LG phone with 3amp battery and it still holds better while watching videos online than s23u. Samsung just heats up and eats entire battery in like 2 hours, then it takes like 10 hours to charge the thing unless it's powered off. This is a very very common problem with this phone that people wrote about from the month it was released. No update ever fixed that. I sometimes worry it might actually blow up in my face from the heat. Samsung never again.

                            AppleUser, 07 Mar 2025are you guys having problems with the camera resolution? because sometimes when i take normal ... moreYou probably take those kinds of pictures when the camera is focusing itself to whatever is you take a picture of.

                            Try going to "More" in the camera app and then to "Pro" there you can control the focus manually.

                            Just to test if it has any kind of problem tho, the camera usually focuses without user imput, and it's very annoying to get the right focus manually, that is if you're not some kind of photophile and want a more specific focus than what the phone automatically choses.

                                      After the February patch, the screen on my s23 ultra behaves strangely, sometimes I feel like it's at 60hz, and I have it set to 120! and it seems like it's hard to load apps, and before the patch that arrived on the 20th everything was super fluid! Does this happen to anyone else?
