The S23 Ultra does have better battery optimization. My friend manages to get close to 12 hours, especially with light usage and power-saving features on.
But does it charge faster? I’ve heard it can go from 0-100% in under an hour!

Yes! The S23 Ultra supports 45W fast charging. I’ve had days where I charge it for just 30 minutes and it easily gains 50%.
The Note 10 Plus has decent charging speeds too, around 25W, but it can feel slow compared to the S23 Ultra. I sometimes find myself waiting too long in a pinch.

Totally agree! Heavy users like me need something that charges fast. Would the S23 Ultra be more suitable for that?

Absolutely! If you’re a heavy user, the S23 Ultra would be the better choice overall. More efficient battery life and super quick charging can really keep you going.
I really like my Note 10 Plus, but sometimes I do feel like I need to recharge in the middle of the day. The S23 Ultra can definitely offer a more robust solution for heavy tasks.
That’s a valid point! You don’t want to be chained to a charger, especially if you’re multitasking a lot.
Exactly! I always carry a power bank when using the Note 10 Plus just to be safe. The S23 Ultra’s battery life might reduce that need significantly.
I feel like battery life is so subjective. Some people may find the Note 10 Plus fits their needs even for heavy use. What are people’s real experiences with both?

That’s true! It really boils down to how you use your phone daily. Personal preferences play a big role.
I’m leaning towards the S23 Ultra for the metrics, but the Note 10 Plus has sentimental value. Decisions, decisions!

Just remember, battery life is only part of the equation! Overall performance matters too.
Don’t forget to factor in the camera and features! Making a switch isn’t just about battery life. You gotta enjoy the whole experience!
I’ve been using the Note 10 Plus for a while, and the software experience has been smooth. One of its best features is Samsung DeX, which enhances productivity. However, I hear the S23 Ultra has even better software optimization.

That’s great to hear! I’ve always loved the Samsung UI, but how do you find the update frequency for Note 10 Plus? I’ve read that newer models get updates faster.
The update frequency for the Note 10 Plus is decent, but I think the S23 Ultra will receive updates for longer, thanks to its newer hardware. The user interface can feel a bit different on both, so it might just depend on what you’re used to.

I’ve read that the S23 Ultra has a more refined One UI experience. The software features really boost overall performance. Does anyone know if those features make multitasking easier?
Yes, the multitasking on the S23 Ultra is fantastic! The split-screen feature is much smoother and more responsive, especially with the larger display. I feel like Samsung focuses a lot on enhancing productivity with its newer models.
It seems like both devices are great in their own ways. I appreciate the support for legacy features in the Note 10 Plus, which some users might prefer over the latest updates in the S23 Ultra.
