What’s new in the Galaxy S23 Ultra from its predecessor
As always, Samsung now comes with its new generation S series device, now Samsung unveiled its new Galaxy device through the unpacked event yesterday, i.e. Galaxy S23. Last year Samsung combined its two successful lines together, the Galaxy S series and Galaxy Note, and we got the Galaxy S22 Ultra, the ultimate flagship phone that basically had every feature you could imagine. Taking the legacy ahead, the company has now launched the revolutionary Device Galaxy S23 Ultra.
However, let’s look at the Galaxy S23 Ultra. It looks similar to the previous Ultra model, it comes with the same signature sharp corners, and you still have the familiar S Pen and that impressive 10X optical zoom camera.
Let’s talk about the new specs of the Galaxy S23 Ultra device
Camera
The Galaxy S23 Ultra brings improvements in the hardware and carries the flagship tag with it. If we talk about this year’s highlighted improvements, it’s none other than a camera upgrade; the device will come with a new 200-megapixel main camera which promises the finest quality of photos and amazing night shots. The device comes with a camera setup- 200MP main camera with 23mm f/1.7, 12 MP ultra-wide with 13mm f/2.2, 10MP 3X Zoom with 69mm f/2.4, 10MP 10X periscope Zoom with 230mm f/4.9 and a 12 MP front camera. This time company has focussed on night photography which enhanced the low-light camera performance.
Processors
The Galaxy S23 is powered by a new snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, and Samsung is using the higher clock speed chip specially designed for the Galaxy S23 devices; it is also worth noticing that Samsung has ditched its self-made processor, the Exynos from its Flagship lineup phones because in the predecessor flagship device this processor making heating issues and lagging the devices, that’s why the Galaxy S23 devices are only available with Snapdragon processors.
Storage
As the Galaxy S23 Ultra device will come with a big camera module of 200MP and will give you the best quality, it is obvious that these photos will cover more space, so Samsung has decided to give double storage from the base variant and has a top variant with 1 TB, as 8GB+ 256, 12GB+512GB and 12GB +1TB variants.
Operating System
The Galaxy S23 Ultra will get four major Android upgrades up to Android 17 and five years of security patches up to 2028. While the Galaxy S22 Ultra will go up to Android 16.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy S23 is an enhanced version of Qualcomm’s chip
After analysing the all-new specs, we have concluded that the Galaxy S23 device will be a revolutionary device in photography and will give you unbeatable performance as compared to other devices available in the market, as always this S series phone will rule over the devices this year, however, if all these views are true for only S23 Ultra device because other devices do not have this much camera specs, but still you can enjoy the performance as all three devices have same 8 Gen 2 processor.
Samsung has kept the same battery capacity for the flagship devices while also sticking to the same fast charging speed. If we look at the Galaxy S Ultra devices from the Galaxy S22 Ultra, the company has stuck with 45 W charging and the same 5000 mAh battery. According to the latest report, the Galaxy S25 Ultra may also use the same battery and specifications.
Previous, it was rumored that the Galaxy S24 Ultra could be equipped with stacked battery technology, which could lead to maximizing the component cost, but now, according to an X user named Sawyer Galox, it is reported that the Korean giant will skip this hardware change on the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra to save on component cost.
Along with this, the tipster also expressed his disappointment with Samsung’s take on the unchained hardware. He adds that users who want to buy the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra should keep their expectations low with the battery performance, as Samsung will keep the specs the same with the 500mAh battery and the 45W.
However, the company will also introduce its latest device with new chipsets that may provide improved optimization, which may provide some long-lasting battery life, but it will not provide any improvement in charging.
Samsung is preparing to introduce its next-generation foldable device, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. However, given that the new smartphones in the Z lineup typically launch between July and August, some rumors suggest that the company might host the next Galaxy Unpacked event on July 10, 2024. Despite the date being more than three months away, numerous details have surfaced online.
According to recent reports, Samsung plans to implement its dual chipset strategy for the foldable, mirroring the Galaxy S series lineup, where some models of the Galaxy S base and Galaxy S+ devices feature Snapdragon, while in other markets, they feature Exynos.
The next foldable lineup rumoured to come with multiple chipsets; for example, the Galaxy Z Flip 6’s last Geekbench listing showed that it has the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. However, this processor is already one year old, so there are fewer expectations that it could be available in the main models. However, if a rumor proves to be accurate, it could potentially be available for the FE variant of the devices.
For your information, the rumors have revealed that Samsung could introduce two new versions of the foldable devices with the brand names ‘FE’ and ‘Ultra‘, so to make the difference, it may introduce them in separate chipsets. If it provides the older chipset for the FE version, then it will be successful in cost-cutting and releasing the device at a low cost.
Following the successful launch of the Galaxy S24 flagship device, several rumors have started circulating on the internet. Now, according to the latest development, there is a new listing coming in the highlight, which means the phone is under development and will be available on the market soon.
Some reports suggest that the Galaxy S24 FE, currently under development under the code name R12, could make its market debut in late 2024. Rumors suggest that the Galaxy S24 FE will initially be available in limited markets before potentially launching globally in 2024.
The Internet has also surfaced some rumored specs of the S24 FE, revealing several details about the device, including a 6.1-inch AMOLED display, 128 GB and 256 GB of RAM, and 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM. It might have a 4500 mAh battery for power backup.
Samsung hasn’t officially revealed anything about the Galaxy S24 FE’s features or release date yet. However, a listing in a UK carrier database suggests this phone – known for offering flagship specs at a lower price – is coming soon.
