Get ready to be nominated ‘group photographer’ amongst your friends..! The Galaxy S23 boasts a 50MP camera, 3x optical zoom, plus AI-powered Nightography so pics are bright and sharp, day or night, and video is super-smooth and spectacular thanks to digital image stabilisation. With an enormous battery life you have everything you need to power you through your day, and a refined cooling system ensures streaming and gaming sessions always last the distance. Powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Processor for Galaxy, you can take your multitasking, gaming and photography to the next level.

Pro-grade photography, even at night
The Galaxy S23 packs the power of a pro-grade camera, giving you the tools to capture perfect pics after sundown. Nightography is powered by enhanced AI to capture the detail of any scene, any time. A 12MP dual pixel auto focus front-facing camera is precise and fast for clear, bright and sharp selfies, whatever the lighting conditions.

Video is super-smooth with Digital Image Stabilisation, shot through the triple lens rear-camera, with a 50MP wide lens for 4x wider dynamic range and 3x optical zoom, getting you closer to the action.

Supreme visuals
Its Full HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display looks stunning, is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 both front and back, and is surrounded with an armour aluminium frame. And with Adaptive Vision Booster technology built in to the Intelligent Display, you’ll never struggle to watch a show on a sunny day, or be dazzled by it in the dark.

3900 mAh battery
Thanks to housing a 3900 mAh battery, the Galaxy S23 will see you through the day. Helpfully, when you do need a top up, fast charging technology means you won't be hanging around for long.

5G enabled
Get ready for the next generation of mobile internet and experience incredible download speeds, or play games without the fear of lag. Please contact your mobile service provider regarding the 5G options currently available to you.

Qi Wireless Powershare
Want to power up a (Qi wireless charging compatible) device such as your GalaxyBuds or a Samsung Galaxy Watch Active (sold separately), while you're out and about? No problem – just place your Samsung Galaxy S23 face down and put the battery-drained item on the phone's back to start charging.

What is RAM?
RAM (Random Access Memory) is different to the permanent storage provided by hard disk drives (HDD), solid state drives (SSD) or memory cards in your equipment. RAM is used by your device to temporarily store data to carry out everyday operations. The more RAM your machine has, the faster you can expect it to open and run programs.

This device has 8GB RAM.

Updated user interface
The improved One UI 5.1 lets you customise your experience. From lock screen and wallpaper designs, to how the clock and notification bar appear. You can even manage how notifications appear and assign full-screen GIFs to your favourite contacts, plus even more personalisation options.

Google duo
Across the S23 range, you can collaborate, create, and chat together, even when you're apart, with Google Duo Live, share reactions to the latest Youtube videos, or share your screen to brainstorm ideas.

Please note: not all apps are free / apps might be removed from the Play store.

Please be aware: Samsung do not provide a wall (plug) charger with this device.


What is SIM free?
You'll receive an unlocked mobile, so there's no requirement to commit to any network, leaving you free to decide which SIM card / network to use in the device. This gives you the opportunity to find the most suitable plan, whether that's contract or pay-as-you-go, throughout the lifetime of the phone.

Additional information: manufacturers often update their Operating System (OS) software over the course of a device's lifespan – this means that your product might ship with a more advanced OS than specified.
