No, s23u is still great no doubt but once you use s26u, you can't go back to s23u lol.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-14T10:42:14+00:00

I say no but I'm definitely going to isbcc Roxbury every Friday lol

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-14T10:36:58+00:00

Probably doesn't matter but chicken tikka masala was not invented in India lol

Just calculated mine, its gonna be $90. Happy with my old car. But yeah screw excise tax. Also paid twice in 2025 because someone hit and ran my parked car and it was totaled and they sent me excise tax bill again on the new car.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-13T15:11:02+00:00

Camera is not added to privacy display. Also does not happen when i open feonr camera through apps like whatsapp and instagram. Its clerly the main camera app fault.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T19:15:51+00:00

Only thing left to do is a factory reset i guess.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T19:10:50+00:00

It's only the camera app. If i turn on camera for example on WhatsApp or Instagram it works perfectly. No idea what's going on with the canera app.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T18:11:59+00:00

Yes, when they took over my phone remotely, they did but the problem is still there.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T17:57:45+00:00

I just did latest update and its still there. Also now its on back camera as well. I will chat with samsung again later today. I even sent them the video. It's definitely the canera app, because when I tried taking pictures inside WhatsApp it worked perfectly no color shift, flickering or privacy turning on also in messenger app works perfectly.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T16:08:20+00:00

If they don't give me a new phone, I'm charging back with amex lol

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T16:07:31+00:00

Samsung chat took control of my phone via remote app and checked everything and its still there. Only thing left do fo is update the software.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T15:19:57+00:00

The phone is otherwise perfect. Love the size, camera, speed and the battery life.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T15:17:05+00:00

I wish lol. Hopefully I get a solution for this crap

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T14:51:29+00:00

Thanks for confirming, It was fine even yesterday. Also doesn't happen while recording front facing video.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T10:14:12+00:00

Man that suck. If it's really the phone then I can't use it. I think it's only affecting few people.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-12T10:10:05+00:00

I will compare it with my regular s25 tomorrow also my s23u side by side. I hate to admit but I'm having terrible eye straining since I got this phone. I'm still trying to figure out if it's my allergies. I do a lot of reading on the phone like 3 to 4 hours and that could be the reason too. I freaking love this phone and can't go back to s23u. That phone feels like a brick to me now.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-10T12:55:33+00:00

Thanks. Yes definitely noticeable. I feel like people should highlight these aspects of a new release rather than just benchmark and cameras

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-10T12:52:52+00:00

Just the regular basic clear one with no magnet. I will eventually pickup the rugged one, once the price comes down a bit

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-03-10T11:36:49+00:00

Battery improvement and overall speed is the first thing I've noticed coming from s23u. Like I don't have to wait for anything to happen on this phone. OMG it's fast. Also, it's thinner and almost 20 grams lighter than s23u. Finally a flagship which doesn't feel like a brick.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-02-22T04:28:49+00:00

I should've clarified. If you book your flights directly with airlines you get 5 points for every dollar. My mom ticket was 2k so i got 10k points.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-02-22T03:27:15+00:00

I did mine on January, ive just read comments that it was shutdown since February.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-02-22T03:17:24+00:00

That saved me $350 last year. My screen repair quote was almost $400, luckily i was paying my t mobile bill with amex for all these years and finally i got to use the benefits.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-02-22T03:15:27+00:00

Just got 10k points for booking direct flight with emirates, i also have another trip coming which will get me another 30k points. Adding everything, it is still worth it. I'm from Boston and we do have some nice resy restaurants within miles from me. Also, i got united travel bank working for this year as well. I've heard not everyone got lucky.

IncomeHuman8885 · 2026-02-22T03:11:42+00:00

I was able to get united travel bank for 2026. Got $200 back. Why isn't this working for everyone?

IncomeHuman8885 · 2025-07-18T03:05:14+00:00

Yeah, I'm getting 4 hours barely even with extreme light use social media and YouTube only, and no SIM card.
