We finally have the brand new Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra in the office and between the craze of taking photos and videos of it, running benchmarks, taking comparison photos with the previous Ultra, we thought we’d also do an unboxing.
The Galaxy S23 Ultra comes in a box with a SIM eject tool. That’s all. No cables, no cases, no chargers, just the phone and the tool. But at this point, you probably have some of your other needs lying around, and Samsung is doing its part to help the environment. In its efforts to reduce its carbon footprint, Samsung has reduced the use of plastic in its retail packaging and has even included some pieces on the phone itself that are plucked from recycled fishing nets and plastic bottles.
Plus, many of the Galaxy S23 Ultra pre-order deals include a free 25W charger, so you might be fine with that score.
What you get – a box – and what you don’t – a charger
By now, you should be familiar with Samsung’s Series S and how they relate to each other. We’ve had this trio running a small S phone, medium S phone, and very large Ultra phone for a few years now. However, enjoy these side-by-side photos we took for you!

And here are a couple of shots with the Galaxy S22 Ultra for good measure. The predecessor is on the left. A picture does not convey the differences between the S23 and the S22 Ultra. The new phone has slightly wider side rails which are flatter and therefore more comfortable when holding it. The display panel also curves less than the old one – it’s very thin but you can feel it when you hold the two side by side.
The three protruding lenses on the back are slightly larger on the Galaxy S23 Ultra, yet the phone sits a little further down on a table, next to its predecessor.

We are collecting our detailed review of the Galaxy S23 Ultra little by little. There is a lot to cover and we are taking our time. Stay tuned!
