The Samsung Galaxy A23 (4G) is quite different from the Galaxy A22. The first major change is going from a 6.4” AMOLED (720 x 1,600 px, 90 Hz) to a 6.6” LCD (1,080 x 2,408 px, 60 Hz). The screen gained Gorilla Glass 5 protection. Strangely, this phone is more similar to the new A13 than it is to its predecessor.
The changes continue with the camera
department. The main camera has a 50 MP sensor (f/1.8 aperture), replacing the
48 MP one. The ultra wide camera drops to a 5 MP sensor (from 8 MP), the two 2
MP helpers (macro and depth) remain on board. The selfie camera was also
demoted with an 8 MP sensor (down from 13 MP on the A12).
Samsung doesn’t reveal the chipset, but do
note that this is a 4G phone. We’ve seen leaks mentioning a Dimensity chip,
that would be for the Galaxy A23 5G. Anyway, this phone comes with several
memory configurations: 4, 6 or 8 GB of RAM and 64 or 128 GB storage (plus a
microSD if you want). The phone will run Android 12 with One UI 4.1 out of the
box.
The battery capacity is the same as last
year, 5,000 mAh, but here we find a rare upgrade – charging speed went up to
25W (up from 15W).
