Samsung doesn’t seem to stop showering phones this month. Under A series moniker, the company has launched Samsung Galaxy A23 along with Samsung Galaxy A13 in India. Boasting a Snapdragon 680 mid-tier chipset, this device is set to compete for the mid-range segment. In this article, we’ll talk about specs, features, and Samsung Galaxy A23 price in Nepal (expected).

Samsung Galaxy A23 Overview

Design and Display

The design of the A-series phones is identical these days, which is the same as with Samsung Galaxy A23. The back panel and camera module are inherited from its upper range sibling such as the Samsung Galaxy A53 5G. The button’s placement is also similar. As expected, the device has a plastic back and plastic frame. It weighs around 195 grams.

On the display side, the phone houses 6.6 inches PLS TFT display with Full HD+ resolution and 90Hz refresh rate. Being an AMOLED veteran, Samsung could have provided a better panel here. Nevertheless, the screen has 400 PPI. Also, there is a teardrop notch that houses an 8MP selfie camera. For protection against scratches, there is Gorilla Glass 5.

Optics

The phone packs in a quad camera setup. The main camera is a 50MP f/1.8 sensor with OIS. Having OIS for this segment is rare. It also features a 5MP ultrawide camera which is sort of degraded from its predecessor’s 8MP resolution. And rest of the cameras are 2MP + 2MP macro and depth cameras. The primary camera can shoot up to 4K resolution at 30fps. While the selfie camera is an 8MP one with an f/2.2 aperture. It can shoot up to 1080 resolution at 30fps.

Performance and Battery

For performance, Samsung has opted a mid-range Qualcomm Snapdragon 480 chipset. The 4G octa-core chipset has a configuration of 4×2.4 GHz Kryo 265 Gold & 4×1.9 GHz Kryo 265 Silver cores. It is built on a 6nm architecture for energy efficiency. The silicon is coupled with 4GB/6GB/8GB RAM. Meanwhile, the storage is an eMMC 5.1. There is a dedicated microSD slot for memory expansion.

The device boots on fresh One UI 4.1 built on top of the latest Android 12. It boasts a 5000mAh battery with 25W fast charging support. Well, Samsung has taken the “environmental impact” game strongly and took out the charger from this phone too. So, you don’t get a charger bundled in the box.

Other Specs

The rest of the specs include a Type C port, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, hotspot, Bluetooth 5.0, etc. The fingerprint sensor is embedded in the power key. And the available color options are Black, White, Peach, and Blue.

Having OIS on this price point is a nice add-on to have. But the display could have been at least an IPS LCD instead of TFT, isn’t it? Redmi Note 11 comes with an AMOLED panel in the same category whereas Realme 9i is also there in the competition. Will this device compete well? What do you think?
