Published

on


Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S23 series will be launched on February 1st, 2023. It will have a total of three devices- Galaxy S23, S23+, and S23 Ultra. All these three devices vary in terms of features and services based on their category. In particular, the Ultra model brings excessive advancements over the other two. The other two models also show differences, in which the Plus model gets more services than the Base.

Recently, a twitter user Chunvn8888 shared information about the Galaxy S23 Base model through a tweet that shows the features of the two upper S23 models, which the Base model lacks. This article will let you know the dissimilarities between the Base and Plus models. Their differences are provided below, but before that, let’s have a look at the similarities between the Galaxy S23 and S23+ devices. 

Galaxy S23 and S23+: Similarities

  • Android 13 with One UI 5.1.
  • Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. 
  • An 8GB LPDDR5X RAM.  
  • A 12MP selfie camera and triple camera setup on the back (50MP+12MP+10MP).
  • A Full HD+ AMOLED 2X Display with 120Hz refresh rate.
  • HDR10+ support and 1750 nits peak brightness.
  • 10W wireless and 4.5W reverse wireless charging.
  • Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection.
  • Armor Aluminium frame.
  • Stereo speakers. 
  • IP68 rating. 
  • Others- Wi-Fi Direct, Bluetooth 5.3, GPS, NFC, USB 3.2 Type-C port, and an Ultrasonic Fingerprint Reader. 

What does the S23 Plus have that the Base model doesn’t?

As per the tweet, the base Galaxy S23 model will be different from the Galaxy S23+ in the below-mentioned terms. 

No UFS 4.0 storage chip for the 128GB storage variant

Notably, in the Galaxy S23 series, the Base model is the only device that still has a 128GB storage variant (in pair with 8GB RAM), but it does not use the UFS 4.0 storage chip. The 128GB storage variant is the only device that uses the UFS 3.1 storage chip, which has nearly half the read and writes speed of the USF 4.0 one. Undoubtedly, it will be slower than the rest, even from its own 256GB storage variant.

The Base model uses the Wi-Fi 6E and not Wi-Fi 7

Besides the storage chip, the Base model also lacks the Wi-Fi 7 technology, which the other two members of the S23 series have. Instead, the Base model contains Wi-Fi 6E support. It is said that the Wi-Fi 7 has 4.8x better bandwidth than the Wi-Fi 6E. However, both of them have access to 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz radio frequency bands. 

Other minor lacks of the Base Galaxy S23

Other than the above-mentioned features, the base S23 also loses in terms of battery capacity, charging support, and bezel width. The Base model has the smallest battery in the whole series (3900mAh), which doesn’t even support the 45W fast charging, while the rest two do. Besides, it also has a small Display (6.1-inch) and a wider bezel than the Plus and Ultra models. It is also reported that it is not getting the UWB that the S23+ has in it.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 & Flip 6 Charging Details Revealed: No Upgrade Expected

Published

on

By


Samsung is setting up to upgrade the battery life of the sixth-generation Galaxy foldables, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. But what about the charging speeds? 

Leaks and rumors are doing well to increase the enthusiasm among the Galaxy foldable fans, as ahead of any official commitment they are unveiling the expected design, processor, and key features such as battery. It has already been revealed that the forthcoming Galaxy Z Flip 6 will feature a bigger dual battery as compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy Z Flip 5

But here’s the question: a bigger dual battery is okay! But what about the charging speed, whether it gets upgraded or not? 

It is sad to relate the answer: Samsung may not upgrade the charging speed of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6. This is being speculated by an important certification in China that lists both the foldable smartphones and Samsung’s 25W charger. Not only this, but the charger also carries the model number EP-TA800, which is examined by the regulatory authorities for every Galaxy smartphone as well as tablets that support 25W charging. 

Since a 25W charger is mentioned in the certification, it does not indicate that 25W will be the maximum charging speed on the new phones. Flagship Galaxy devices that support 45W charging are tested along with the 25W charger as well, but noticeably, these certifications are not the exact confirmation of a charging speed. This may change as well. 

But it has come to be known that if Samsung introduces 45W charging to its forthcoming foldable this year, then there is a high possibility that only the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will support it. In short, since Samsung has not officially revealed anything regarding the battery of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 yet, we can just wait to see what new changes and upgrades the forthcoming foldable will bring.

Samsung Could Welcome Back ‘Galaxy C Series’ With Galaxy C55 In 2024

Samsung appears to believe old is gold, as it is planning a re-welcome for its old ‘Galaxy C series’ as reported. 

Presently, Samsung is playing a game with its six series, including the Galaxy Z (foldable), Galaxy S (flagship), Galaxy A (mid-range), Galaxy M and Galaxy F (affordable), and Galaxy Note. Now it is planning to add one more series named ‘Galaxy C’. 

Although the Galaxy C series is not the latest for the Korean giants, seven years ago there was a Galaxy C series in existence that vanished away. The last device from the C series was the Galaxy C8, which was launched back in 2017. And now it looks like Samsung is gearing up for the comeback of the Galaxy C series with a brand new device named the Galaxy C55. 

This is being speculated since the smartphone has now surfaced on the Google Play Console listing, suggesting specs similar to the Galaxy M55 and Galaxy F55. However, the device will not see a global debut and is intended for the Chinese market. The Play Console listing unveils some key details; for instance, the device will feature a Full HD (1080 x 2400 pixel) display with a screen density of 450 DPI, 8GB of RAM, and will be powered by Android 14 and the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC. 

It is the same chipset that is rumored for the Galaxy M55 and Galaxy F55. Qualcomm introduced this mid-range chip back in 2022 and offers four Cortex-A710 cores clocked at 2.4 GHz, four Cortex-A510 cores clocked at 1.8 GHz, and an Adreno 662 GPU. Apart from this, no much more details have been revealed regarding the Galaxy C55 yet, but it is expected that soon more information will come to light.

Galaxy S25 Ultra Design Rumors Point to Minimal Bezels

Published

There is still approximately a year to go before the S25 Ultra is released. There is still around a year left before the release of the S25 Ultra. But, as Samsung is actively working on innovations, we have already started getting new devices in the form of rumors. The latest development includes information about the redesigned frames of the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra.

There are renders shared by PandaFlash on social media that claim that from these four images, one will be the final product of the Galaxy S25 Ultra. However, if you are familiar with the Galaxy S24 Ultra, you will easily spot that there is no major difference from that device.

There can be multiple watts to redesign the frame, but as you can see in the image, there is only a slight difference in the frame and bezel size, as you can see in all prototypes. You can clearly see that the only thing not changing in four renders is the position of the selfie camera, which is in the center. This means that we will not get an under-display camera like the Galaxy Z Fold 5.

Apart from a few changes, it will not bring any major change in the screen size, which was the same as the Galaxy S22 launched in 2022; however, Samsung has brought the flat screen again to the Galaxy S24 Ultra, but there is no clue if Samsung will continue it or go for a change.

Going on to other details, as heard in some rumors, the Galaxy S25 will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, and for camera performance, it will be equipped with an ISOCELL GN3 Camera Sensor. For more confirmation, we have to wait some more time.
