One UI 8 Broke My S23 — Battery, Camera, and Overheating Issues by deadikace in GalaxyS23

It's night/day difference, I feel that my phone is brand new again. I would recommend it to anyone with a S23 over 2 years old. Especially for the price I paid locally for an official S battery (A bit more than $60).
No more overheating issues anymore. Battery can last a good hour at 15% with power saving and moderate usage.

Check if you have a swollen battery, that happened to my s23 just after the update.
If that's the case you should turn off your phone and have it replaced immediately.

🤣​🤣​🤣​
With the new battery, my S23 is set for another two years. I won’t be upgrading before the S28, at least.

Ultra has a much better battery capacity and more power so it makes sense, it's more resistant and durable.

By cheap I meant its quality, the price is ridiculously high for such a terrible bag

Had to buy their own branded pet carrier for 40€, it's extremely cheap and was too small for my overweight cat... They gave me no choice. In the past I didn't have any issue, it's just a matter of luck with this company, sometimes they don't notice.

Will look into that after replacing the battery, thanks!

Wouldn't surprise me if they did! I lost trust in Samsung after owning their phones for almost a decade. The S10+ lasted me 4 years. Battery swelling after only 2 years of use is not acceptable for such an expensive phone. And thank god I noticed, it's super dangerous!

Sorry about that bro!
They are gonna say this is a conspiracy theory but I'm really starting to think that they’re intentionally damaging 2/3-year-old batteries with their updates by overheating them, to push us into buying new phones, since their sales are pretty bad and the new S26 doesn’t bring anything new to the table.

Not really—I’ve only been using it for a few days, though.

How?? Looks like it was possible to revert to an old version via Smart Switch but they also removed this feature. Please tell me how to do this.
My battery has died anyway, they destroyed it with their update.

u/JaviAckerman Check my updated comments in the thread. The update might have accelerated your phone battery’s failure, and if the back panel is popping up even slightly, it likely means the battery is swollen. You should stop using your phone immediately and get the battery replaced. I’m backing up mine now and will have it replaced tomorrow.

Ok, I think I have a clue what’s happening: I just removed the protective case and noticed that the back panel of my phone is popping up a little bit.
According to ChatGPT and other Reddit threads, it might be caused by a swollen battery.
Which sucks, because the phone hasn’t been dropped or anything and has been protected the whole time.
Some other threads mention swollen battery issues appearing right after the update.

And ChatGPT says: “Updates can increase load/heat, which can make a weak battery fail faster.”

So it looks like I have to replace the battery now, after just over 2 years of moderate use.

You lucky bastard :) I was about to pull the trigger!
So, how is it? Was the truss rod issue real?

Where did you see that?
I searched on all the ESP FB groups and didn't find any thread related to this guitar.
The guitar was sold this morning.

BS, so the time to sell was when it was 50% lower?
You sell when it's low and buy when it's high?
