Upgrading

Is it worth it to upgrade from s23u to the s25u or wait for the s26u and see what it is like?

Upgrading is heavily dependent on your situation and is a deeply personal financial decision.

Here are some things to consider:

- Is your device functional?
- Are you experiencing substantial performance issues that are not resolved by troubleshooting?
- Is the S25U currently available to you at a substantial discount that would discourage you from waiting?
- Is upgrading now in your best financial interest?

That said, it is typically not advised to upgrade to the current device this late in the cycle unless doing so is financially advantageous (think steep Black Friday discounts,) and waiting until the S26 announcement for the upcoming device will allow you to take advantage of pre-order offers.

Ultimately, the choice is yours.

The main question is do you need it or want it? You really don't need no one's permission.

I can get the s25u 512gb for $440. The curved edges have started to get on my nerves since I got another phone with flat display. The battery is still working perfectly, no scratches, dents, burn ins or water damage. I'll wait it out for the s26u and hope the phone have some major changes be worth upgrading to.

Honestly, considering that the S26 ultra is right around the corner. I would personally wait and once it releases, compare it to the S25 ultra
