Bold, bright and beautiful The Samsung Galaxy S23+ has a 6.6-inch Full HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X Display. Protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on both the front and back, and surrounded with an Armour Aluminium frame, the Galaxy S23 Series takes the title for our most durable range to date.

Specifications

17 February 2023 The phones were announced and unveiled on 1 February 2023 at the Galaxy Unpacked in-person event and were released on 17 February 2023. They collectively serve as the successor to the Samsung Galaxy S22 series.

Compared to the Galaxy S21 Plus and S22 Plus before it, the Galaxy S23 Plus brings a refreshed design. Gone is the wraparound camera housing; in its place are three floating sensors placed directly on the back. It's a clean, simple look that's inoffensive and gets the job done.

Aside from screen size, the only notable way that the S23 and S23 Plus differ is in the battery: both size and how fast it can charge. Both have slightly larger battery capacities than last year's models, bringing the S23 to 3,900mAh and the S23 Plus to 4,700mAh.

The bottom line: Yes, if you have a Galaxy S10 it's worth upgrading to the Galaxy S23. You'll get 5G support, access to new versions of Android, longer battery life, a faster new processor and a much-improved camera. But be prepared to say goodbye to the microSD card slot.

Just like the Galaxy S23 Ultra, the Galaxy S23 and S23+ both feature Super HDR capabilities, with fast autofocus, jumping from 30fps to 60fps, making for much better selfies and videos.

$999.99 Samsung Galaxy S23+ Specs Starting at $999.99, the Galaxy S23+ is Samsung's most traditional flagship smartphone. It offers lots of the same features as our Editors' Choice, the Galaxy S23 Ultra (starting at $1,199), but it's a little smaller and drops the S Pen stylus.

With more screen space than the S23 but a considerably lower size and weight than the Ultra, the S23+ is the perfect phone for the most demanding users. Its performance and user experience are unrivaled, and its drawbacks are minor and few.

With the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon® 8 Gen 2 chipset on the S23, you can now unlock higher frame rates and enjoy sharper, more vivid graphics. Along with the boosted 3,900mAh battery, there's a new and improved cooling system in place which is two times larger than that found on the Galaxy S22.
