Samsung Galaxy F23 5G with 6.6″ FHD+ 120Hz display, Snapdragon 750G, 5000mAh battery launched in India starting at Rs. 17499


Samsung just launched the Galaxy F23 5G, the company’s latest mid-range 5G smartphone in the F series, after teasing it recently. The successor to last year’s Galaxy F22 packs a 6.6-inch Full HD+ LCD Infinity-V display with 120Hz refresh rate, compared to the last year’s F22 4G model with a 6.4-inch 90Hz AMOLED display. This also has a faster Snapdragon 750G SoC with up to 6GB of RAM, RAM Plus feature and power cool technology to keep the temperature low.

The phone runs Android 12 with One UI 4.1 on top, and Samsung has confirmed two years of Android updates and four  for the phone. It features a 50MP rear camera along with an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 2MP macro camera. There is an 8-megapixel camera on the front.

The phone has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and packs a 5000mAh battery with support for 25W fast charging, but it doesn’t come with a charger in the box, making it the first mid-range Samsung phone to lack an in-box charger, after the flagships.
