The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is, without a doubt, a well-packaged premium device. It comes with the best hardware along with the best software experience, the One UI 5.1. One interesting thing about the One UI 5.1 that it brings to the Galaxy S23 Ultra is the reduced camera shutter lag. Notably, the reduced camera shutter lag is visible even in the dedicated 200MP camera mode.
Although the Galaxy S23 Ultra still comes behind the Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max in terms of shutter lag, there are noticeable improvements when compared with the previous generation of Galaxy S-series phones, following a recent update.
There are ways to reduce shutter lag even further
According to a video posted by tipster IceUniverse, the South Korean variant of Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra features greatly reduced camera shutter lag in 50MP and 200MP modes after an update. Do note that there isn't any difference between the South Korean and international variants of the Galaxy S23 Ultra, since all models of the Galaxy S23 Ultra sold across the world run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 ‘For Galaxy‘. So, everyone across the globe will notice the reduced camera shutter lag.
