Samsung Galaxy S23 series will largely be based on the Galaxy S22 series
Samsung will launch the Galaxy S23 series next year, and there has been a lot of news in the past. Recently, the Galaxy S23 (SM-S9110), Galaxy S23+ (SM-S9160), and Galaxy S23 Ultra (SM-S9180) have obtained 3C certification. According to the data, they will be equipped with 25W EP-TA800 chargers, and they are expected to be equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen2 platform.
According to Wccftech, the Galaxy S23 series has not changed much compared to the Galaxy S22 series, among which the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23+ will be upgraded to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen2 platform, the rest is unchanged, and the Galaxy S23 Ultra will have an upgraded screen and a 200MP camera in addition to the new SoC. This means that the hardware differences between the Galaxy S23 series and the Galaxy S22 series are small, and most of the components are common to the previous generation.
Although this approach may be criticized by some consumers, Samsung’s operation is not surprising. After all, the Galaxy S22 series is relatively complete, and Samsung can better digest inventory and improve component utilization in this way. Due to the new COVID-19, inflation, supply chain problems, and the global economic downturn, the demand for the smartphone market this year has been greatly reduced. Samsung lowered its smartphone shipment target for 2022, significantly reduced production, or even suspended production lines.
