With the Galaxy S23 Ultra, Samsung has launched a real backlight champion. The premium cell phone also offers many other exciting features for photo and video enthusiasts. In addition, the included S-Pen can now do a lot more.
With the Galaxy S23 Ultra, Samsung has launched its first smartphone with a 200-megapixel sensor. The manufacturer has also worked on the camera system and the functions behind it. The S23 Ultra solves a problem that photographers encounter once more and once more: backlight. Whether in portrait mode, with the wide-angle camera or in selfie mode – the device delivers high-quality images. Backlit photos are sharp, faces are easily recognizable – even in group shots and with the wide-angle camera – and the device even produces a nice natural-looking bokeh in Portrait mode. Filming in backlight also works well if the focus is on the right subject.

Thanks to the 200 megapixel sensor, those who forgot to get close enough to their subject can still show decent pictures. If you activate the 200 megapixel mode, you can zoom into the photo followingwards and usually get better results than with the camera zoom.
Samsung praises the cell phone as the ideal companion for the night and advertises its “Nightography” functions. The S23 does really well in the city at night, at dusk and anywhere there is a strong contrast between the light source and the environment. In terms of quality, the photos were a little more convincing than the videos recorded in poor lighting conditions. However, all of the content is quite impressive.
Samsung has also greatly improved the image stabilizer. He did such a good job of filming that there were even videos of the person jumping up and down, up and down the stairs and through the garden with the phone in hand (yes, the neighbors thought their part) feel comfortable and fluid.

Stargazers, cloud watchers and anyone who loves sunsets and sunrises should be happy regarding the new Hyperlapse functions. The S23 Ultra provides different modes for recording the movements of the stars in the night sky, passing clouds or just for the rising or setting of the sun. All of the functions mentioned did what the manufacturer promised when trying them out. The first mode should deliver impressive shots, especially on a shooting star night. However, depending on the environment, it may not be advisable to leave the expensive new smartphone outside all night to film the stars, because that takes time.
The S Pen becomes the remote control
Not only the camera, but also the S-Pen hidden in the device can now do a lot more. If desired, it becomes a kind of magic wand. Users can use it as a trigger for the camera and use gestures to make the device switch cameras or zoom in and out. But be careful: If you can’t draw pretty circles in the air, you sometimes have to swing the S-Pen several times in a row until the S23 Ultra recognizes the shape. If the corresponding function is activated, the smartphone can also be unlocked with a single tap on the S-Pen.
As with the predecessor, notes can also be taken with the pen and transformed into typed text with handwriting recognition. In addition, users can make notes on screenshots or mark certain areas on the screenshots with a highlighter.
Conclusion
The Galaxy S23 Ultra is the ideal device for anyone who likes to experiment with the phone camera and wants to take high-quality photos and videos with it. It’s amazing what the camera system can do once morest the light. In addition, it also copes well with night scenes in which there are strong light-dark contrasts. With the different Hyperlapse modes, it also offers new functions to try out. The upgraded S Pen is quite handy. Triggering the camera with the pen is particularly useful. In addition, the new functions offer a certain fun factor.
