📱 Meet the Samsung Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23 Plus!

🥑 Good morning, dear readers. It’s the week before the storm that’s the Pixel 7 and Pixel watch launch on October 6. You would think there would be a little silence now, but there isn’t at all. Two of the major phones to hit the market in 2023 have just broken coverage thanks to leaks. We also have firsts on the upcoming Google hardware. So without further ado, here’s your daily news feed.

It is no exaggeration to call a Samsung flagship kick off one of the most important events in the Android world, if not THE most important. Every year, Samsung enters the Unpacked stage twice to announce its latest smartphones. While the official launch of the first set of 2023 Samsung flagships still months away, assuming Samsung would unveil them sometime in February, leaks have now sent two of those phones our way — the Samsung Galaxy S23 and Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus.

• Let’s start with the vanilla Galaxy S23, the new entry into Samsung’s flagship.
• The leaked renders of the phone are from trusted tipster Steve Hemmerstoffer, so they’re probably pretty accurate.
• The Galaxy S23 renderers (above) show that it is shaped similarly to the Galaxy S22.
• The biggest change is the camera module which now has three different cutouts for each camera lens. The camera island of the S21 and S22 days is over.
• It looks like Samsung is trying to make its new flagships look more cohesive this time around.
• The Galaxy S22 Ultra stood out in this year’s lineup, and Samsung’s design changes may remedy that distinction on its 2023 flagships.
• That said, we still haven’t seen the design of the S23 Ultra. However, we don’t think Samsung would stray very far from what’s coming in from us right now.
• The leaker also shared some dimensions of the standard Galaxy S23 and said it would have a 6.1-inch display in a 146.3 x 70.8 x 7.6mm body. So not much has changed compared to the Galaxy S22.

• The Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus has the same minimalistic back as the vanilla model.
• The camera body has been replaced by three raindrop-style camera cutouts that sit flush with the body.
• The leaker claims that the phone will have a 6.6-inch display.
• It doesn’t seem that the punch hole of the selfie camera, the USB-C port or the speakers will change.
• Unfortunately, the leaks have yielded nothing but the design of the phones. You can go here learn more about the upcoming Galaxy S23 series.
