Hello All,
I am looking forward to switch from S22 Ultra to S23 Ultra.
Any idea what free goodies we may fetch this time if we order it pre-launch?
Supposedly launch will be in end of Feb 2023.
Thanks

If restart when needed is turned on this might explain why.
Nah I haven't got that on. I'm not sure what caused it as it didn't happen the first night I had it. I think I've ironed out every issue I had switching over and wanting the phone the way I want it apart from system apps. I cant find an app to disable them yet. Ill get my screen protector today hopefully no bubbles!
My main Spigen case is coming from Poland tracking hasn't been updated since it left on 11th they said today originally so we shall see!
Got around to moving across to the new phone last night and it'll still take me most of the day as some things don't just transfer automatically - eg: make sure you don't wipe your old phone before you transfer your Google authenticator codes. Google wallet also needed to be set back up among others.
Initial impressions are very positive. It's noticeably faster than my Snapdragon Note 20 Ultra (as you'd expect) but beyond that it's much the same so far as both have the same version of the OS/One UI on it.
Typing this message from the new Ultra and I'm happy anyway 🙂
Ended up ordering the cream Ultra last night with a set of Buds Pro.
Bought a Fold 4 which I returned after a weekend with it. Cool phone but the anxiety of breaking it was too much for me, and the outside screen was a nightmare for the large handed man.
What are the chances it’ll dispatch today? EDIT - It has :D
I assume no one has got the packaging to send you old phone back for the trade in yet?
I've pulled the trigger and ordered the 512GB Ultra. I paid with my revolut card but haven't received the cashback? Payment is still pending on the app, does this come through once that clears or should I have received instantly?
Balls, I didn't. I went through the normal Samsung store as it worked out cheaper, thought I saw that working for people earlier in the thread. Nevermind then!
I've still managed to get the 512GB Ultra for €628 after my s22+ and broken Fitbit trade in. So not all bad! Thanks to @Fwarder for the tip!
I got it on the same day as S23U, Monday.
I will send the trade in phone today by registered post.
I got the email from them giving instructions before the phone came but nothing else yet. Sure nothing I can do if I haven't gotten it yet!
Nothing received in the post yet either. Trade in phone is ready to go. They just need to send me whatever packaging/envelope now.
Same here on the trade in pack i have yet to receive anything apart from the email instructions. I'm sure it'll turn up but friday.
Grand not just me so!. Got my screen protector from Amazon today so ill sort that later. Phone screen feels so slippy without one I haven't went naked in years haha. Don't know when Spigen are sending my case it was meant to be today according to there website but no sign yet.
I didn't even get the email instructions for the trade-in. Perhaps they don't actually want my Huawei 🤣
I sent my trade in fold 3 phone back on Monday but did it via freepost, I completely forgot to send it via registered post, nervous now in case it goes "missing" as got no email yet saying trade in complete.

I ordered a case directly from Spigen too, ordered on the 3rd and still no sign of it yet.
How long after dispatch did ye have to wait for Dpd to deliver? I have a hate hate relationship with Dpd.
I decided to go for the official leather case in black, looks the job tbf!
Ordered this morning on Amazon along with a cheapish screen protector. Should arrive Friday
3rd! jaysus, where does it say its at on tracking? they dispatch from poland under registered letter, you should be able to track it on https://www.poczta-polska.pl/ and once it gets into ireland, the tracking number should work on an-post
"2023-02-09 04:03 Warszawa,ul. Łączyny, Sent from Poland"
That was the last update, nearly a week ago. Ordered a cheap case on amazon which will more than likely be here before the spigen one.
Had lots of bubbles on a glass protector, took it off to replace and cracked it .... when putting the new one on I cracked that too! Temporarily using a plastic protector until my new set of glass ones arrives tomorrow. Similar to Whitestone Dome and have the UV light included.
Does anyone have experience with this brand?
I also got my Otterbox Sleek series and JETech camera lens protectors today. Looks very tidy and nice in hand.
Links above for reference if anyone is interested. Very quick delivery 1-2 days.
I had this one delivered this evening, 0 problems applying it and 0 bubbles. Would rather have gone with the whitestone ones, but they are just too expensive these days.
And the one I bought doesn't have the cut out for the front camera, which i prefer.

Just a heads up for anyone looking for cheap screen protectors that do the job.

Have one on now and looks perfect no bubbles or anything. I messed the first one up but was my own fault so applying them seems to be straightforward enough.
I have this cheap case on at the minute decent enough for the price JETech Case for Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra 5G 6.8-Inch, Non-Yellowing Shockproof Bumper Protective Phone Cover, Anti-Scratch Hard PC Back (Clear): Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo
Gonna convert it to my quad lock bike case soon as my main case comes.
I am using the same case. It's not the best as the camera guard is not elevated on one side. Camera almost touches the surface.
I am waiting for ESR kickstand case and also waiting for the matt finished screen protector.
where did you order the ESR case from?
Yeah its basic but it will do the job until the main one appears whenever that is! Still no sign of any tracking for Ireland on the Polish order so much for there prediction of delivery on the 15th.
it will be same tracking number on anpost
Just FYI..... Your IMEI is visible in one of those photos.
i ordered a s23 ultra yesterday, when should i expect a despatch note, will i be waiting a week or so, or should be sooner?
