Samsung announced the launch of the Galaxy S23 Plus smartphone in 2022. The manufacturer is offering the Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus phone with 6.6 inches display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen2 chipset, 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage.
The Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus comes with Android OS v13 out of the box, and a Li-Po 4700 mAh, non-removable battery. The 6.6 inches phone comes with AMOLED display (1080 x 2340 pixel). The AMOLED is a display technology and stands for Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diodes, it is a type of OLED display and is used in smartphones.
When it arrives, the Samsung Galaxy S23 will have some big shoes to fill, given how well Samsung’s recent flagship phones performed. But we think Samsung is up to the challenge, as it gets the next big phone release ready. Among the most recent updates to the Galaxy S lineup, the Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22 Plus felt a lot more iterative than innovative — but the Galaxy S22 Ultra had no such problem, bringing the Galaxy Note back to life.

Designs & Display
Smartphones commonly use LCD screens in their displays; however, OLED displays are becoming more common, and are preferred by most smartphone manufacturers. An LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is a type of flat panel display that uses liquid crystals as its primary form of control. LCDs are lit with a backlight as pixels are switched on and off electronically while using the liquid crystals to rotate polarized light. Polarizing glass filters are placed in front and behind the pixels, and the front filter is situated at 90 degrees.
LCDs are beginning to be outpaced by other display technologies, but still have a place in the smartphone market. Now, LCDs can be commonly found in budget to mid-tier smartphones- as the OLED is a bit more costly. LCDs have been being replaced in a lot of flagship smartphones by OLED displays, or organic light-emitting diodes. OLEDs are very flexible in terms of how they can be implemented.
The weight of Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus is about 6.88 oz with battery, which is average compared to most of the smartphones with same size. The dimensions of this Samsung phone are average (6.2 x 2.98 x 0.3 inches).
Memory & Performance
The internal memory of Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus (8 GB) cannot be expanded. Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus comes with Android OS v13 out of the box, but it is upgradable to the next operating system.
Camera
Cameras on a phone commonly include a normal camera lens, a telephoto lens and a wide-angle lens. A telephoto lens allows users to take a photo of a faraway subject while a wide-angle lens allows the user to take a photo at a wide field of view with a short focal length. On the front-facing screen, there is usually a selfie camera and, in some cases, a wide-angle lens. The camera of the Galaxy S23 Plus is equipped with autofocus.
An autofocus (or AF) optical system uses a sensor, a control system and a motor to focus on an automatically or manually selected point or area. Very few Android cameras come without autofocus. The main camera of Galaxy S23 Plus has optical image stabilization (OIS) to counteract camera shake. Optical image stabilization is a must for anyone shooting without a tripod with a long lens or in low light conditions.
Connectivity
Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus supports 2G, 3G and 4G/LTE networks. This phone has a built-in GPS. GPS is a highly accurate navigation system using signals from satellites to determine a location on the Earth’s surface, irrespective of weather conditions. Most phones have a GPS unit on board. The Galaxy S23 Plus comes with NFC (Near Field Communication) functionality. Near Field Communication (NFC) is a short-range wireless connectivity technology that makes life easier and more convenient for consumers around the world by making it simpler to make transactions, and fully exchange digital content.
Battery
The smartphone houses a Li-Po 4700 mAh, non-removable battery gives the smartphone a good battery backup. The lithium polymer (Li-Po) battery is a thin, light-weight, rechargeable battery.
