Samsung Galaxy S23 Smartphones | Design & Display
The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra features a familiar yet exceptional design. The phone comes with a glass rear panel which makes it subject to smudges. However, the device is ever a premium looker and superlative by all means. Samsung can’t be blamed for making a great leap with such a flying design yet. The S23 Ultra comes in a square form and its notebook feel is inherited from S22 Ultra which was inspired by the Galaxy Note.
The phone comes with 163.4 mm x 78.1 mm x 8.9 mm dimensions on a 6.8-inch display with a resolution of 1440 x 3088-pixel resolution. the display is made of 22 percent recycled glass.

Coming to the moderate variants, Galaxy S23 Plus and S23 inherit mostly similar designs to their direct predecessors Galaxy S22 Plus and S23 models. Both are designed with recycled glass and PET film. Their screens get Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection. Both handsets come in Phantom Black, Cream, Green, and Lavender colors.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for all and performance
With Galaxy S23 lineups, Samsung is breaking away from its trend of using different chipsets on its flagship phones depending on the region they are sold. Yes, ditching its debated Exynos processor, the phone maker will bring all the Galaxy S23 phones with the latest Qualcomm-built 4nm-powered quad-core Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset.

- 12 MP f/2.2 aperture ultrawide lens with FOV 120˚

The massive camera is complemented by Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS) which helps make images steady. Plus, night photography can be expected to improve greatly with an improved aperture structure. The phone is equally capable of recording videos at greater specs. You can record videos at up to 8K@24/30fps but expect to lose a huge amount of storage with such detailed content. Instead, you can opt for 4K@30/60fps or 1080p videos at 30 fps. The front camera can capture videos up to 4K resolution at 30 or 60 fps.

- a 12 MP ultrawide lens with f/2.2 aperture & FOV 120°

5000 mAh battery for the Ultra
The Ultra variant comes with a 5,000 mAh li0ion battery which should be good enough for a day’s drive. It gets 45W wired charging and 10W wireless charging. Likewise, you can benefit from its PD3.0 power supply standard and charge the device to 65 percent in 30 minutes. You are ensured with a well-optimized battery and options of charging it quickly to never run out of juice.
Connectivity

Our verdict
Samsung Galaxy S23 is an expensive lineup and is targeted at buyers who can afford it. But if budget is not the concern, then the devices offer the best smartphone experience possible at the moment. From gaming to the camera, multitasking to basic browsing, the specs of these devices can handle all that you push towards it.
But among the three, you can still be picky. If you are a design freak and wanted different with the Ultra, you will have second thoughts. If performance is the key, you can buy any of the phones. It’s about going for the highest or buying the one to fit your bills. There are not many phones that can match the ultimate Galaxy S23 devices for this year at least so far.
