Press Release
last updated: Feb 02,2023
Press Release —
Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today unveiled the Galaxy S23 Ultra,
Galaxy S23+, and Galaxy S23, marking a new era of Samsung Galaxy’s ultimate premium phone experience. Samsung Galaxy's epic camera gives users
more freedom to explore their creativity, like capturing truly cinematic
Nightography videos with transformative AI. The Snapdragon® 8 Gen 2
Mobile Platform for Galaxy unleashes premium experiences, including
groundbreaking AI, future-ready mobile gaming feature and powerfully sustained
game play with the world’s fastest mobile graphics.[i]
On the Galaxy S23 Ultra, an embedded S Pen[ii] that many long-time Samsung Galaxy users know and love offers more
possibilities for productivity, notetaking, hobbies and more. All the Galaxy
S23 series’ new standard-setting innovations are housed within a striking
design that advances the company’s sustainability commitment with more
components made using recycled materials than any other Samsung Galaxy
smartphone.[iii]
“The value of impactful technology is measured, not just by what it
enables for people today, but also how it contributes to a better future,” said
TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung
Electronics. “The entire Galaxy S23 series is the new standard-bearer of
trustworthy premium smartphone experiences. We’re on a mission to redefine peak performance by
bringing together powerful, lasting innovations and sustainability"
A Samsung Galaxy Camera with More Megapixels and Extensive Creative
Controls, From Day to NightGalaxy S23 Ultra makes it easier for any level of photographer to
capture phenomenal content. It offers Samsung Galaxy’s most advanced camera
system, tailored for nearly any lighting conditions and engineered to render
incredible detail. Improved Nightography capabilities transform how the Galaxy
S series optimizes photos and videos in a wide range of ambient conditions.
Filming a favorite song at a concert, snapping a selfie at the aquarium, or
grabbing a group shot of friends at dinner — users can get sharper images and videos.[iv] Visual noise that usually ruins
low-light images is corrected by a new AI-powered image signal processing (ISP)
algorithm
that enhances object details and color tone.
In a Samsung Galaxy first,
Galaxy S23 Ultra boasts a new 200MP Adaptive Pixel sensor that captures epic
moments with incredible precision. It uses pixel binning to support multiple
levels of high-resolution processing at once.[v] And because selfie cameras are more important than ever to how we communicate
today, the Galaxy S23 series introduces fast autofocus and our first Super HDR
selfie camera, jumping from 30fps to 60fps, for noticeably better front-facing
images and videos.
For users who
want the ultimate creative control and customization, the Galaxy S23 series
offers a suite of tools that differentiate any photography experience. The
Expert RAW app,[vi] available exclusively on Samsung Galaxy, enables DSLR-style image shooting and
editing in RAW and JPEG — no bulky camera equipment is required. Users can experiment
with Multiple exposures photo art or capture a clear view of the Milky Way with
Astrophoto settings, and now, after being downloaded on Galaxy S23, Expert RAW
features can be accessed within Samsung’s native Camera app. Meanwhile, the new
zoom capabilities on Galaxy Watch5 series’ Camera Controller app[vii] empower users to capture a perfectly framed shot right from their wrist.
Additional camera
advancements include:
- Low-light or in situations that would normally create a blur, videos are stable with doubled optical image stabilizer (OIS) angles in all directions on Galaxy S23 Ultra.
- Recording videos feel more cinematic with enhanced 8K video[viii] at 30 frames per second with a wider angle.
- Advanced, object-based AI analyzes each detail in the frame, even down to minute facial features, such as hair and eyes, to carefully reflect a person's dynamic characteristics.
- For an even more enhanced video experience, the new 360 Audio Recording feature[ix] on Galaxy Buds2 Pro creates multi-dimensional sound.
On Galaxy S23+
and Galaxy S23, the iconic Samsung Galaxy camera also gets an upgraded look.
The contour housing has been removed, marking a new era of essential Galaxy
design that makes the entire series stand out.
Premium Performance Makes Way for the Future of Mobile GamingFor creators and gamers alike, the desire to push limits and
constantly reimagine what’s possible requires technology that outpaces
expectations. Together, Samsung and Qualcomm optimized the Samsung Galaxy
experience with the brand-new Snapdragon® 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform for Galaxy, the most
powerful and efficient platform ever in a Samsung Galaxy smartphone and the
fastest[x] Snapdragon available today. Meanwhile, on the Galaxy S23 Ultra, a 5000mAh
battery[xi] powers a larger camera than Galaxy S22 Ultra without increasing the device’s
size.
A newly designed CPU micro architecture boosts the processing abilities
of the Galaxy S23 series by about 30 percent compared to the Galaxy S22 series.[xii] Capturing stunning photos in low
light requires trillions of calculations per second, so Samsung Galaxy’s highly
efficient NPU architecture has been optimized by 49 percent to balance
performance and power while using an AI algorithm to help users take epic
photos and videos.12 One of the most significant improvements
to the Galaxy S23 series is the optimized GPU, which is approximately 41
percent faster compared to Galaxy 22 series and designed especially for power
users.12
In anticipation of the future of ultimate digital realism, Galaxy S23
Ultra comes ready to support real-time ray tracing as it comes to the mobile
gaming mainstream. Users will be able to see noticeably more lifelike
renderings of scenes, thanks to technology that simulates and tracks every ray
of light. Plus, Samsung Galaxy’s vapor chamber, now bigger[xiii] and on every Galaxy S23 series model, keeps your gaming marathon going.
All this power underpins Galaxy S23 Ultra’s expansive 6.8-inch[xiv] edge display with a reduced curvature to create a larger and flatter surface
area[xv] for the best visual experience on a Samsung Galaxy smartphone. Samsung Galaxy’s
unique Enhanced comfort feature allows users to adjust color tones and contrast
levels, lessening eye strain from screen time at night. Vision booster now
adjusts at three levels of lighting instead of two to combat brightness and
glare in daylight.
Designed with the Planet in MindThe Galaxy S23 series raises the bar for premium technology that can
enrich people’s lives and help contribute to a healthier planet. Since the
Galaxy S22 series, Samsung Galaxy increases its use of recycled materials from
six internal components in Galaxy S22 Ultra to 12 internal and external
components in Galaxy S23 Ultra. Galaxy S23 series also has a wider variety of
recycled materials than any other Galaxy smartphone, including pre-consumer
recycled aluminum and glass and post-consumer recycled plastics sourced from
discarded fishing nets, PET bottles and water barrels.
The new S series is the first to feature Corning® Gorilla® Glass
Victus® 2, offering durability for long-term use and consisting of an average
of 22 percent pre-consumer recycled content[xvi].
Plus, every Galaxy S23 smartphone comes in a redesigned packaging box which applied
paper made with 100 percent recycled paper.
With the Galaxy S23 series, Samsung Galaxy is doing more to minimize
its impact on the environment without compromising quality and aesthetic. The Galaxy S23 series is UL ECOLOGO® certified[xvii],
meaning that the product has been certified for reduced environmental impact.
For users who want to extend the life of their device, the Galaxy S23
series’ premium experience can be sustained through the years with four
generations of OS upgrades and five years of security updates[xviii].
To enhance its longevity, users can also
leverage programs such as Samsung Care+[xix],
a support service for accidental damages, repairs and more.
User-Friendly Security and Privacy Enable a Transparent Experience without
CompromiseSecure and private experiences are the foundation of the Galaxy S23 series.
Every smartphone comes with Samsung's end-to-end Samsung Knox protection, which
has received more government and industry certifications than any other mobile
device, platform or solution on the market. The Security and Privacy Dashboard
on Samsung Galaxy gives users full visibility over who has access to their data
and how it’s being used. With just a glance, it’s easy to see if personal data
is at risk and receive simple prompts to change settings for a more secure
experience. Users can also decide exactly which applications and programs get
access to their data and how it can be used.
For an added layer of security, Knox Vault, which was first introduced
on the Galaxy S21 series, protects critical information on the Galaxy S23
series by isolating it from the rest of the device, including the OS, for added
protection against vulnerabilities.
More Freedom and Flexibility for Connected Lifestyles
At the core of the Samsung Galaxy S series’ premium experience is the
uncompromising innovation of Samsung Galaxy Ultra. But
the power and creative capabilities of Samsung Galaxy Ultra don’t stop at
smartphones. With the brand new, first-ever Galaxy Book3 Ultra, and the Galaxy
Tab S8 Ultra, users can now enjoy an ultimate Samsung Galaxy’s ecosystem.
Across every Galaxy S series model, connected
experiences get added benefits. Samsung Multi Control,[xx] which connects mouse and keyboard functionality between a Samsung Galaxy PC and
tablet, now extends to Galaxy S23 Ultra, Galaxy S23+, and Galaxy S23 for the
ultimate flexibility between devices. Plus, enhanced
text usability makes it easy to copy and paste text, like URLs, from one device
to another to pick up an activity on another device. On Galaxy S23 Ultra,
Google Meet paired with Samsung Notes and the embedded S Pen now make video
calls even more collaborative. With Google Meet live sharing, participants can
simultaneously co-edit[xxi] a document from each of their Android devices, rather than viewing a shared
screen.[xxii]
AvailabilityThe Galaxy S23 series comes in four nature-inspired matte hues:
Phantom Black, Cream, Green and Lavender[xxiii].
Samsung will launch
a pre-order campaign in the Jordanian and Iraqi markets starting from the 2nd
till the 23rd of February 2023.
Starting on
February 24, 2023, Galaxy S23 Ultra, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 will be
available in the Jordanian and
Iraqi markets in carriers and retailers, and on Samsung.com.
