The new Samsung Galaxy S23 We tell you everything about it!

Today it is key to have a mobile phone, it is something almost vital. Most people usually and recommend investing in a good mobile phone, since it will accompany you in the next three, four, even five years if we give it a good deal. It is for all this that today we want to talk about the new Samsung Galaxy S23.

If you are thinking of buying a new mobile, stay because we will tell you everything about this new release from Samsung.

After three months of pure speculation, the day February 1 the pre-sale came to light of the plus and standard series of this new model. Later, specifically the Its official sale began on February 7. This model is one of the smallest of the Samsung Galaxy family, since ahead of it we can find the Samsung Galaxy S23 + and the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. It should be said that although this phone is the "younger brother" of the family, we can see that this is only the case because of its size, since inside it hides true wonders.

Its starting price was 959€, but this amount could be affected by increasing its value, for example, depending on the storage space we want to have. Of course, the more internal storage, the higher the price of this mobile device.

Now let's talk about the characteristics of this new release from Samsung.

Screen

Samsung Galaxy S23 screen

The first point we should talk about will be the screen of the Samsung Galaxy S23, since it is one of the central elements of our mobile device. Without a good screen, we can never have a good mobile phone.

To say that it is a surprising screen since it has a 2-inch Dynamic AMOLED 6,1X panel with refresh rate from 48 to 120 Hz. It has an FHD+ resolution of 2.340 x 1.080 pixels and the brightness peaking at 1.750 nits. It also has technology Always-on Display.

Therefore, as a conclusion, we could say that the screen of this Samsung Galaxy S23 is not a small screen, since we remember that it has a screen of more than 6 inches. The botones they are perfectly achievable, just like your good ergonomics. It can be said that we have a glass back in addition to being anti fingerprints, so you can always count on a clean back. The lateral from the phone are plans, which makes the device easier to handle and more comfortable (also at the visualization level).

Dimensions and weight

Dimensions Samsung Galaxy s23

This new Samsung creation has some dimensions 146,3 x 70,9 x 7,6 mma weight of 168 grams. With this we can see that it has practically the same dimensions as the previous generation and that, thanks to these, this new device feels very premium in the hand, since you have the perfect measurements so that you can reach all, or almost all, the sides of the screen with one hand.

Processor

In the processor we can verify that it has a Snapdragon 8 Gen2This makes it one of the best mobiles in Spain thanks to this Qualcomm processor. It is characterized by having a good dissipation system and, unlike previous models, this one does not suffer from thermal throttling problems. Having a good processor in our mobile device becomes a very essential part, since it will allow us to play without slowing down or giving us load problems.

RAM and storage

Storage Samsung Galaxy s23

The new Samsung Galaxy S23 has a memory 8GB LPDDR5X RAM. The type of storage space is variable, in which we can find 128GB, 256GB and 512GB. Depending on the level of storage space you choose to purchase, versions will be more or less fast when it comes to, for example, opening large files or loading game files. I could recommend that you choose, as long as our budget fits, the intermediate version, that is, the 256 GB version, since today many people are outgrowing the 128 GB version.

Frontal camera

We now come to the photographic section, one of the most important points for most people. The front camera of our wonderful Samsung Galaxy S23 has a 12 Mpx sensor with an aperture of f / 2.2. Here we can tell you that this lens has a good white balance, of course also details, good application of portrait mode or "bokeh" and its great HDR mode. It must be said that Samsung has been quite good with the front camera of this new device. Great for social media!

Rear camera

There are three modes: Main camera, wide angle and telephoto. The first one has 50MP f/1.8 OIS. The second, with 12 Mpx f / 2.2, like the front camera. and the third with 10MP f/2.4 OIS 3x.

Main camera

In the main chamber we can see that, as we have said before, it is one of the best cameras for photography for social networks since, first of all, when you shoot and get your photo, it would not need any kind of retouching. The quality is spectacular, with vivid but realistic colors, the detail in the photography is also one of the best so far and the HDR, more of the same. When we are in places or places where the quality of light decreases, it makes it great, surprising. The natural blur you get when bringing an object closer to the lens is also very good. At night, as usual, the quality of the image decreases and as soon as you zoom in we can see that the natural textures of things become slightly flatter, but as we have already said, it is normal, nothing special. It should be said that Controls light bulbs very well at night, such as the lights of the cars or the illumination of the streets.

Portrait mode

The portrait mode of this camera is very good, since it is one of the strengths of Samsung. It works very well in both photo and video and does not cause problems when it comes to cropping (almost never). What does have to be said is that Samsung has a very aggressive bokeh effect, so if this is not to your liking, you can always lower a few points to this blur so that the result obtained looks more natural.

Telephoto

We now turn to talk about the telephoto, which is very similar to the main camera. Good detail and quality, good coloration and in spaces where the quality of light decreases, such as indoors, it gives us very good results.

Wide angle

Finally we have the wide angle mode, which must be said that not the best of the three but it is equally surprising. It treats the lines well but the detail is not very striking and suffers as soon as the luminosity goes down. Even so, it is still a good option for certain plans or occasions in which you need it.

Battery

Mobile charging battery

Another of the most important points of a mobile device is the battery. The new Samsung Galaxy S23 has one of 3.900 mAh with 25W load, But no charger included. It also has a 15W wireless charging and other 4,5W reverse wireless. 

It must be said that for the mobile that it is, it does not have a bad battery, but we cannot ask for more, since it is a fairly compact mobile. We could say that this is a weak point of this phone, without exaggerating. Battery performance is good to get you through the day, but without forcing it. Has fast charge, but still I consider it to be slightly «slow«. Here I leave the percentage of battery with respect to the charging time:

  • 15% in 8 minutes
  • 30% in 20 minutes
  • 50% in 34 minutes
  • 75% in 53 minutes
  • 100% in 80 minutes

we would get the 100% full charge in 1 hour and 20 minutes, but the 3.900 mAh and the 25W give what they give.

Operating System

This device has an operating system Android 13 + One UI 5.1. It must be said that this device has four years of updates and five of security, so buying this phone is making sure you have good hardware and software for several years.

Connectivity

It has a connectivity 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3 and NFC, something quite important for several people since they have already begun to pay with the mobile device.

Others

Our new Samsung Galaxy S23 has a Ultrasonic fingerprint sensor on the screen, IP68 certification, Gorilla Glass Victus 2 screen and Dolby Atmos stereo sound. 

La IP68 certification was already carried by its previous model but the Gorilla Glass Victus 2 screen has been improved, point for Samsung. The Dolby Atmos sound is disabled at the factory, you have to go to the settings to activate it. First of all, when we have such a compact mobile, we cannot ask it to have good speakers. In contrast, this Samsung Galaxy S23 surprises us, since the sound, at first, is good but when Dolby is activated it is… wow! We can say that it holds up perfectly without any sound distortion increasing the volume to 80% and, it should be said that for the size of the speakers and the sound box, the sound is amazing.
