Samsung unveiled its flagship Galaxy S23 Ultra, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 smartphones, after a series of leaks and rumours. The launch of the premium smartphones from Samsung comes days ahead of the unveiling of the flagship OnePlus 11 alongside the OnePlus 11R.

The base variant of the phone comes with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. There are three other variants 12GB of RAM and 256GB of memory, 512GB of RAM and 1TB of internal storage. The smartphone is powered by a big 5,000mAh battery with support for 45W fast charging (both wireless and reverse wireless charging).
The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra comes with a 6.8-inch QHD AMOLED display while the Galaxy S23+ gets a 6.6-inch FHD+ AMOLED display and the vanilla Galaxy S23 comes with a 6.1-inch FHD+ AMOLED display. The vanilla Galaxy S23 models comes with a symmetrical front bezel and a premium design.
The devices run Android 13-based OneUI 5.1 based out-of-the-box. Samsung has also bumped up the battery capacity on both S23 and S23+ by 200mAh, which means the Galaxy S23 now has a 3900mAh while the Galaxy S23+ has a 4700mAh battery.
