The first unboxing video of the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is out

The Galaxy S23 flagship series will be unveiled next week and we'll see a trio of specs – the S23 base model, the Plus spec and the Ultra flagship model. It is he who now stirs the waters of the Internet, because he showed himself in all his glory in the first unboxing video. Although, unfortunately, it's more than likely a damn scam.

Video unboxing ahead of time...Sometimes it happens that a video with a phone that hasn't even been presented yet (in the past, for example Pixel 6a). Manufacturers often send their news to well-known YouTubers or publishers well in advance, so that reviews and first impressions are available immediately after the official presentation to the public.

But does this still happen today? The yet-to-be-introduced Samsung Galaxy S23 ultra was revealed in an unboxing video by YouTuber Agrawalji Technical. The recording itself is over three minutes long, was posted yesterday and has over 10,000 views. It shows a device that really looks like the Galaxy S23 Ultra, but many doubts have arisen.

The entire video is dark, which is the first thing that raises considerable doubts. The cell phone really looks like the Galaxy S23 Ultra, but the fact is that the novelty from Samsung will be practically the same as its predecessor in terms of appearance Galaxy S22 ultra. This means that the creator of the video could easily pass off the 2022 model as this year (and probably really does).

The YouTuber gives us a look at the innards of the system, which clearly says Galaxy S23 Ultra, but it's pretty easy to fake. And as SamMobileName server points out, there are more discrepancies. For example, the placement of the partition with the antenna on top matches last year's model, as does the laser focus unit. flagged this video as false and a known informant IceUniverse.

At the beginning of the video, the YouTuber also shows off the sale packaging, which, of course, is also fake. The font is thinner than the official font used by Samsung and it is likely that the YouTuber simply printed the cover of the box. Therefore, this attempt to obtain exclusive content did not go very well and we will have to wait until next Wednesday for the Galaxy S23 Ultra to be shown live.
