I am now curious how much of the space can be freed up from removing things (without needing root). I have a Galaxy S20+ and was really thinking of upgrading this year, but until I know how much can be removed normally I will be staying with what I have. I guess the Ultra would at least have a chance at kind of negating the issue space wise. The extra cost is a hard one to justify though, especially since the S23+ in some big ways is like a downgrade compared to what I already have. I still can't believe that my 3 year old phone has more RAM than the new version. And the constant adding and removing micro SD card support is frustrating (even if I don't normally have one installed it is nice to have).
It also sucks that I really like the flat edges of the S23 and S23+ models over the curved non-sense of the Ultra. I have always liked the way the edges of the iPhone 4/4s/5/5s/12/13/14 look compared to the ones with rounded/curved backs (or in Samsung's case the fronts and backs).
