Leaked new Samsung Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+ leaves little to the imagination

Samsung is set to unveil the Galaxy S23 series on February 1 at the Galaxy Unpacked event in San Francisco. Although not explicitly confirmed by Samsung, the company is expected to introduce three new smartphones – Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra. We’ve already heard quite a bit about the S23 trio, but the latest leak from the German blog WinFuture leaves little to the imagination on the Regular and Plus models.

Official press renders of the Galaxy S23 trio have already leaked, so we know what these S23 series smartphones will look like, but today’s leak corroborates previous design leaks as the source shared some additional photos of the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23+.

Both models look identical and have a more rounded design than the Galaxy S23 Ultra, which has a more boxy, Galaxy Note-esque design. However, it’s not just the design, the S23 and S23+ will also share several specifications and differ mainly in screen size, storage, battery capacity and charging speed. You can check the table below for more specs, but note that these are for European units.

The source claims that the S23 and S23+ will not come with a microSD card slot for storage expansion, but the European versions will have two physical SIM card slots and eSIM support. The S23 and S23+ won’t come with the 3.5mm headphone jack either, but you’ll get ultra-sonic in-screen fingerprint scanners on both for biometric authentication.

Additionally, the source claims that those who pre-book the S23/S23+ from individual retailers in Germany will have the option of purchasing the phone with dual storage for the same price. So, if you buy the 128GB variant of the Galaxy S23, you’ll get the 256GB model without spending any extra. And if you buy the top model, you have to pay the price for the “next smaller version”.
