The Galaxy S23+ is the middle child of Samsung\u2019s latest family, but it\u2019s trying to break out of that mold. It just might be the family favorite this time around.<\/p>\n<p>For whatever reason, Samsung has decided it has to release three phones in its flagship Galaxy S <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> every year.

The Galaxy S23+ is nearly (<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/870242\/the-samsung-galaxy-s23-has-a-case-problem\/\">annoyingly) identical to the Galaxy S22+ in size\u2014less than .4mm difference in height and width. The most noticeable design change this year is the camera bump, or rather, lack thereof.<\/p>\n<p>All three Galaxy S23 models now share the same camera lens design as last year\u2019s <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/110490\/samsung-galaxy-s22-ultra-review-the-total-package\/\">Galaxy S22 Ultra<\/a>. The camera bump is gone, leaving only the three lenses jutting out from the back of the phone. The lenses stick out the same amount\u2014and the device is still wobbly when lying on a flat surface\u2014but I prefer this cleaner look.<\/p>\n<p>One thing that stuck out to me when I first held the Galaxy S23+ is a certain fruity influence, if you catch my drift. While no one would mistake the Galaxy S23+ for an iPhone 14 visually, the large radius rounded corners and flat glass on the front and back provide a familiar feel. You might think you\u2019re holding an iPhone if not for the slightly rounded edges.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-875689\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Samsung-Galaxy-S23-Plus-13.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Galaxy S23 Plus display\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Justin Duino \/ How-To Geek<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This isn\u2019t a bad thing, by the way. I much prefer the rounded corners of the Galaxy S23+ over the sharper corners of a phone such as the Google Pixel 7. It\u2019s much more comfortable to hold, and actually makes the phone feel smaller than the Pixel 7 despite having a larger display. That\u2019s also thanks to the impressive 90% screen-to-body ratio.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of display, the 6.6-inch display has a resolution of 2340 x 1080 and a 120Hz refresh rate. 1080p might not seem that impressive, but I\u2019ve come to prefer it over higher resolutions. I just don\u2019t need that on a smartphone, and I\u2019d rather have the improved battery life that comes with a lower resolution. Samsung makes some of the best displays on the market, and the Galaxy S23+ keeps that going.<\/p>\n<p>I haven\u2019t always been a fan of Samsung\u2019s hardware design. At times, its devices have looked and felt cheap despite not being priced that way. The Galaxy S23+ looks and feels every bit as premium as its price tag and spec sheet imply.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fingerprint_Scanner_Not_Terrible\"><\/span>Fingerprint Scanner: Not Terrible<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-875687\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Samsung-Galaxy-S23-Plus-11.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Galaxy S23 Plus fingerprint scanner\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Justin Duino \/ How-To Geek<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Last year, I wrote an editorial titled: \u201c<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/828441\/the-dream-of-in-display-fingerprint-scanners-is-dead\/\">The Dream of In-Display Fingerprint Scanners Is Dead.\u201d It was largely inspired by my time with the Galaxy S22.

The Galaxy S23+ \u201conly\u201d has a 50MP main camera, 10MP 3X zoom lens, and 12MP ultrawide camera on the rear. Upfront is a 12MP selfie camera.<\/p>\n<p>The cameras are very good, if not a little boring. Photos from a Samsung phone tend to have their own unique look. They\u2019re fine in a vacuum, but if you compare them with photos from other phones, you can see how unnatural they sometimes look. Colors are pumped up just a little too much.<\/p>\n<p>The same can be said for low light photos. They\u2019re certainly good and more than acceptable for a modern smartphone, which is good since the weather was not great in my testing period. I wasn\u2019t blown away by the results, though. Google\u2019s Night Sight mode is still king in this department. However, you shouldn\u2019t worry about not being able to capture moments in low light.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-875676\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Samsung-Galaxy-S23-Plus-1.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Galaxy S23 Plus camera app\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Justin Duino \/ How-To Geek<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The one area that Samsung has really nailed is Portrait Mode.

It\u2019s remarkably good at isolating small details from the background, and the blurring effect isn\u2019t overdone. I\u2019ve taken some Portrait Mode photos that are literally flawless.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung has equipped the Galaxy S23+ with tons of options when it comes to video. You can record up to 8K at 30fps, or max out the fps at 960 in 1080p. While I still prefer Google\u2019s cameras and software optimizations for photos, I think Samsung is better at video.

Qualcomm and Samsung have made some extra customizations for the Galaxy S23 series. It\u2019s not exactly clear what those customizations are, but this is a very speedy phone.<\/p>\n<p>I can safely say the Galaxy S23+ is the fastest Android device I\u2019ve ever used. You might think that\u2019s an obvious statement for the newest device in a series, but it\u2019s not always the case. I was not impressed with performance on last year\u2019s Galaxy S22, for example. I have the model with 8GB of RAM\u2014which is not the most you can get\u2014and it\u2019s been absolutely great.<\/p>\n<p>Setting up a phone from a backup is one of the most resource-intensive things you can do. Dozens of apps are being downloaded and installed, settings are being restored, images and videos being transferred, etc. The Galaxy S23+ handled it all without a hiccup and didn\u2019t even get warm.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the biggest performance improvement I\u2019ve noticed with the Galaxy S23+ is the camera. I was very frustrated with the laggy camera experience on my Galaxy S22. So much that I stopped using the phone altogether. Thankfully, Samsung seems to have solved that problem.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Battery_Life_Long_Days\"><\/span>Battery Life: Long Days<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-875668\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Samsung-Galaxy-S23-Plus-14.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Galaxy S23 Plus\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Justin Duino \/ How-To Geek<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"greybox_callout\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Battery size:\u00a0<\/strong>4,700 mAh<\/li>\n<li><strong>Max charging speed: <\/strong>45W<\/li>\n<li>Wireless Charging and\u00a0Battery Power Share<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>Despite being practically the exact same size as the Galaxy S22+, Samsung managed to add an extra 200mAh of battery into the Galaxy S23+.

Now it\u2019s even better.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks in part to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 optimizations and 1080p display, I never had any anxiety about running out of battery before the end of the day. With most phones I end up at around 25% or lower by bedtime. The Galaxy S23+ is closer to 50% by the end of the day, which is pretty amazing.

The Galaxy S23 and S23+ have a lot in common\u2014more so than the S22 series\u2014but the Ultra model has quite a bit more.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a \u201csmall\u201d Android device, the regular Galaxy S23 is the best option on the market. The 6.1-inch display is much better for one-handed use than the 6.6-inch Galaxy S23+. However, the Galaxy S23+ is honestly not as big as you might think, thanks to the aforementioned screen-to-body ratio. If size isn\u2019t your top concern, I think the Plus model is the way to go this year.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, we can\u2019t forget the Galaxy S23 Ultra. It has everything you could possibly want out of a high-end, premium smartphone. You get more cameras, a bigger display, bigger battery, and a stylus. It also costs $1,200, which is a lot for a phone that doesn\u2019t even fold.

It feels like a worthwhile upgrade over the smaller S23\u2014for those who don\u2019t need the kitchen sink approach of the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/145785\/samsung-galaxy-s23-ultra-the-total-package-again\/\">Galaxy S23 Ultra<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>That being said, you\u2019re not limited to only Samsung if you\u2019re interested in Android phones. The Google Pixel 7 Pro\u00a0sits in the same display size category and also costs $999. It has more RAM (12GB), slightly weaker performance, a 5X zoom lens (compared to the S23+\u2019s 3X), higher resolution display, and Google software.<\/p>\n<p>Which should you choose? If you\u2019re planning to use the phone for multiple years, the Galaxy S23+ is the more reliable choice. Samsung offers better software support than Google, and better quality control in general. However, if One UI isn\u2019t your cup of tea, the Pixel 7 Pro is a fantastic device.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, this might be the best Plus model device Samsung has made in the Galaxy series. It stands on its own as a solid choice among its siblings. $1,000 is still a lot to spend on a smartphone\u2014which gives a slight edge to the smaller S23 still\u2014but you can often find it for cheaper. If you can swing it, don\u2019t let middle child syndrome fool you this time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"single-review-card border\">\n<div class=\"review-card-heading\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\nRating: <strong><br \/>8\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Price: <strong><br \/><small class=\"price_starting_at\">Starting At<\/small> $860<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"review-card-body\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"pros\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heres_What_We_Like-2\"><\/span>Here\u2019s What We Like<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Big, but not too big<\/li>\n<li>Excellent performance and battery life<\/li>\n<li>Premium Design<\/li>\n<li>Solid cameras<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cons\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"And_What_We_Dont-2\"><\/span>And What We Don&#8217;t<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>One UI is a lot to take in<\/li>\n<li>Only $200 cheaper (at full price) than the Ultra<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
