anyone else noticed how much worse used S23 Ultras look on the secondhand market compared to the S23 Plus?

I’ve been scrolling through a ton of used listings lately like facebook marketplace and it blew my mind how much better the S23 Plus holds up over time compared to the Ultra even if it's listed as "good condition" it usually looks like a cheap, worn-out android device meanwhile, used S23 Plus still look super premium, clean, and minimalist can someone explain on why is that?

8GB Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 vs 12GB Snapdragon 870 for Winlator/Mobox pc emulation? which limitation is easier to deal with?

heyy guys I need some realistic advice from people who actually test heavy PC games on winlator, mobox, or horizon and i am currently deciding between two very specific phones for a portable pc emulation setup, and they present two completely opposite bottlenecks the snapdragon 8 gen 2 but only 8gb ram (UFS 4.0 storage) and snapdragon 870, but has 12gb ram (UFS 3.1 storage) I know the common consensus on this sub is that 12gb of ram is the minimum baseline to prevent out-of-memory crashes in heavy 3D open-world windows games but my question is across different hardware generations, which bottleneck is actually easier to work around?

Is it worth flashing an AOSP Custom OS on the S23 just to reclaim ram and kill one ui bloat?

hii everyone, I’m currently using S23 and while the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is still a beast, I’m noticing that one ui’s background services eat up a massive chunk of my system ram and seriously considering unlocking the bootloader and flashing a lightweight custom firmware like lineageos purely to get a clean experience and free up active ram however, I know samsung devices are notoriously painful when it comes to custom development before i do it I wanted to ask the community if the performance and ram gains are actually worth the massive trade-offs for pc emulator purposes 🥹
