Personally, the idea of leasing a device is an odd.choice.to me. You pay all of that money to be charged a lot more if you decide to keep it when a finance is usually a little more per month. The s25 Ultra is a downgrade if you use any of the Bluetooth s-pen features, like as a camera button. Yeah, the SnapDragon Elite is nice but unless you are heavily gaming on your device. You are not going to notice any difference between the s23 Ultra and the s25 Ultra. The OneUI7 update is coming for the s23 series around the end of April. I own an s23 Ultra and considered biying an s25 Ultra. Having had both in hand side by side. I choose to stay with my s23 Ultra. The s26 Ultra will actually be more of an upgrade.
