I had made Junglecat controller cases for my galaxy fold but just got a S23 Ultra and decided to make another for this phone.

I love how perfectly the size of the controllers matches the phone width. It makes it look like one cohesive device!

Speakers, USB and pen are all accessible still.

I am willing to share the STL for free to anyone interested, but if you want to leave me a 'tip' you can buy the file from my store for five bucks. Also selling printed cases for those without a printer!

I i noticed that there is a beep that playes when you hit full volume on a bluetooth device. I am a bit of an audiophile and me turning up completely happens quite often. It is quite loud and annoying and imo it serves negligible purpose since it wont warn you when you are already on full volume.

The S-Pen is going to turn into liquid very soon due to softener exiting the rubber. It just feels like that type of plastic.

From day one it kind of felt odd to me. Like almost too grippy.

Guess they're finally releasing the June patch.

Had the S10+ for a long time and was really happy with it, but I was bitter with Samsung and Android in general because of the low support life, lack of a good eco-system, and lack of in person stores to visit when you have legitimate issues.

I tried Apple for two weeks, and came back. Mainly, the user experience is designed to be used as a happy path user, and you must not stray away from that. I dislike that and appreciate customization.

I looked around for other devices but the S23U really did it for me. Found one at BestBuy as an open box, but it was brand new. Discounted it by ~$350 with the 5% on CC as well.

So far, it's been great. Speed, plenty of RAM, great display, great battery life, excellent camera. Sometimes the camera pictures do look a bit off, like they've gone through processing too much, but for the most part they're good.

There are times where I am zoomed in and I see that the image is being processed. After it is done, the one captured is different than the one processed. Bit annoying and I think they could do better in enhancing that, but I've not had a single bad picture and usually I really like the outcome. Even the iOS users prefer it.
