Thus materials like recycled glass and aluminum chase the plastic even more (also from the recycling sector when possible). The S22s were already the result of work on this question. But only 8 components of the smartphone were really from recycling. This year Samsung doubles the bet: the S23 all have a dozen components from recycling.

Overall, the Galaxy S23, S23+ and S23 Ultra are evolutions of the s22 generation. There are better sets of photo sensors, including a 200 Mp system on the ultra model. The screen is now flat on all models (with the same brightness of 1,750 nits).
We are also entitled to slightly larger batteries: 3,900 mAh (+200 mAh) on the simple S23, 4,700 mAh (+200 mAh) on the intermediate S23 – and always 5,000 mAh on the Ultra model. And we always find the S-PEN compatibility on the Ultra S23 (although the model is apparently compatible only with a specific new generation S-PEN).
However, the big novelty this year is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Samsung Galaxy chip – in place of endless Exynos house fleas that were systematically integrated into Galaxy S smartphones sold in Europe.
Samsung is reviewing his strategy in his homemade chips – in the meantime, the manufacturer got closer to Qualcomm to personalize the most powerful component available in the catalog of the founder. This increased power must serve the photo part of the smartphone. But also draw its autonomy upwards.
The chip also improves 5G connectivity, provides the Bluetooth 5 smartphone.3 and the latest WiFi technology available, WiFi 6th.
The Galaxy S23, S23+ and S23 Ultra are more eco -responsible
Time sign, Samsung is continuing its roadmap to make its devices more eco -responsible. The Galaxy S23 are rather models to follow for the rest of the industry. As part of the “Galaxy for the Planet” program, the manufacturer is based much more than before recycling.
Thus materials like recycled glass and aluminum chase the plastic even more (also from the recycling sector when possible). The S22s were already the result of work on this question. But only 8 components of the smartphone were really from recycling. This year Samsung doubles the bet: the S23 all have a dozen components from recycling.
In addition, Samsung announces record software support for an Android manufacturer. Customers of S23, S23+ and S23 Ultra are now entitled to at least 4 years of major updates and 5 years of security updates. We are still far from the 6 years of major updates from the iPhone, but at least the gap is a little tightening.
Of course the idea is that you will keep your smartphone longer and that it will therefore avoid the manufacture of many units.
What design for the Galaxy S23, S23+ and S23 Ultra ?
The S23 generation is an opportunity for Samsung to unify the design language of the range a little. With the fusion of the note in the ultra model, Samsung had continued to visually differentiate the most expensive model, up to S22 Ultra.
So we had standard models on the one hand, with a flat screen and a more rounded casing, with an inrate visual element which brings together the photo sensors at the rear. While the ultra model was all in angles, further taking up the angular side of the old note. The photo sensors of the latter were, moreover, in a visually easier, without visual element to bring them together.
However, the ultra model also had an edge screen with curved edges, in place of a completely flat screen. Many users greet the simpler design of the ultra on the back, while criticizing the Edge screen, considered a little gadget (especially since it is more fragile). And it seems that Samsung listened to them and took their comments at the foot of the letter.
New design is not necessarily a visual revolution. But indeed all models visually converge more. We have screens that are now exclusively flat whatever your choice. And the rear sensors are no longer grouped into an element, but integrated in the manner of the ultra.
The models are also all available in the same black, cream, green and lavender colors. However, there are new colors exclusive to certain variants: lime and graphite on the S23, S23+ and S23 ultra and sky blue and red only on the S23 Ultra.
The camera of the Galaxy S23
The Galaxy S23 stands out as references of photography on smartphone. First of all because Samsung replaced the main 108 Mpxl sensor with a brand new house sensor isocell HP2 of 200 MP reserved for the ultra model.
Thus the Galaxy S23 and S23+ inherit the same set of photo sensors as on the previous generation, nothing changes Hardware side. If not the selfie sensor, which goes to 12 Mp (f/2.2, Dualpixel). The Ultra S23 also takes up all the sensors of the previous generation, except the main sensor which we told you goes to 200 MP (F/1.7) With improved optical stabilization, but also the selfie sensor which is also a 12 MP sensor (f/2.2).
For the rest, all the magic lies in the algorithms. This allows the whole range to take better night photos (especially portraits). But also to record 8K to 30 IM/s videos, to offer better digital stabilization doped at AI, and to improve the quality of the content you post on social networks.
All these algorithms are based on the new capabilities of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Samsung Galaxy chip. Samsung even allows export to RAW (in 50 Mp or 200 Mp) thanks to this.
What is the Galaxy S23 screen worth ?
This year we are still on magnificent extremely bright and well -calibrated Amoled 2x screens … but they have more uniform characteristics depending on the models. In the field of differences, these screens of different sizes, deliver on the one hand an FHD+ definition for the cheapest models, and on the other the QHD+ for the S23 Ultra.
However for the rest, these are component copies. They have the same incredible brightness of 1,750 nits. A first at Samsung as for the rest of the premium segment.
Battery, recharge and (autonomy ?))
As we said above, the cheapest two S23s benefit from a 200 mAh battery capacity, while the S23 Ultra keeps the same 5,000 mAh battery capacity as on the previous generation.
On the recharging side, we have a 45 W quick recharge for the Galaxy Ultra and 25 W for the other models. We invite you to discover everything about the autonomy of S23, S23+ and S23 Ultra in our grip.
Galaxy S23 FE: an outing in September is becoming clearer, here is what to expect
It has been several months since everything was believing that Samsung was going to launch its new Galaxy S23 FE in advance compared to its usual calendar. For example, we had the opportunity to see images of the device at a certification organization, and even benchmarks of the smartphone on Geekbench.
The Leaker Yogesh BRAR has reconfirmed to its Twitter account that The Galaxy S23 FE would be launched next month, in September 2023. It is therefore slightly earlier than usual, since Samsung generally launched this series at the start or end of the year.
What technical sheet for the Galaxy S23 FE ?
The Galaxy S23 FE should resume a good part of the characteristics of the classic Galaxy S23, but will still make some dealerships to keep a more affordable price. First of all, we know that The smartphone will be powered by an Exynos 2200 chip, Unlike the Galaxy S23 which is entitled to a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. It should therefore be significantly less powerful than other devices in the series.
We will find in front a FHD+ AMOLED 120 Hz 6.4 inch AMOLED with fairly imposing borders. It will be powered by a 4500 mAh battery compatible with quick 25W quick charging. Wireless quick recharge will also be there.
In terms of the photo, the great novelty would be A main photo sensor of 50 MP. It will be accompanied by an ultra-wide-angle sensor of 8 Mp as well as a 12 Mp telephoto lens offering a 3X optical zoom.
Finally, software level, we can count on Android 13 with one UI 5.1. Samsung is currently testing one UI 6.0 on its high -end smartphones, but the new version will not be ready in time for the release of the new device. The Galaxy S23 FE will receive 4 years of Android updates and 5 years of security corrections, Like the other high -end devices of the Korean manufacturer. It remains to be seen which day Samsung intends to launch his smartphone with us.
