The Galaxy S23 series features a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy processor, 5G connectivity, upgraded cameras and a 5000mAh battery (for the Ultra) – which Samsung is promising provides “worry-free battery” life.
Camera upgrades also see improvements to night photography, and the Ultra’s 200 megapixel camera sensor that combines 16 pixels into one larger pixel to improve brightness and detail in low-light situations.
The Galaxy S23 and S23+ are also impressive, featuring 6.1-inch and 6.6-inch flat displays respectively, as well as 5G connectivity and increased battery capacity of 3900mAh for the base model and 4,700mAh for the plus.
