Due to certification businesses like China’s TENAA, we regularly study near-official particulars about telephones lengthy earlier than they launch, and so it’s now with the Samsung Galaxy S23 Extremely.

Noticed by MyFixGuide (opens in new tab), a TENAA itemizing (opens in new tab) – which needs to be primarily based on official info supplied by Samsung – virtually utterly reveals the Samsung Galaxy S23 Extremely’s specs.

These embrace a 6.8-inch 1440 x 3088 display screen, a selection of 256GB, 512GB or 1TB of storage, 8GB or 12GB of RAM, and a 4,855mAh battery – that being the minimal capability, with the cellphone prone to be marketed as having a 5,000mAh typical capability.

The chipset isn’t named however is listed as being clocked at as much as 3.36GHz, which is in line with the overclocked model of the Snapdragon Eight Gen 2 that’s been rumored for the Galaxy S23 line.

As for the cameras, these apparently embrace a 108MP one, two 12MP ones, and a 2MP one on the again, together with one other 12MP one on the entrance. One of many rear cameras (most likely one of many 12MP ones) is claimed to supply 10x optical zoom, as we’d count on. However this digicam setup on the entire doesn’t sound correct.

It appears most unlikely that Samsung would put a 2MP digicam on such a high-end smartphone, so maybe that’s a typo and needs to be 200MP – particularly since such a sensor has been rumored for inclusion.

However then we wouldn’t suppose there would even be a 108MP digicam. The front-facing digicam would even be a major downgrade when it comes to megapixels if it’s 12MP, because the Samsung Galaxy S22 Extremely has a 40MP selfie snapper.

So we’d take these digicam specs with a severe serving to of salt, and whereas the remainder of the listed specs sound plausible this casts doubt on them too, regardless of the respected nature of the supply.

In any case, the itemizing additionally mentions dimensions of 163.Four x 78.1 x 8.9mm, a weight of 233g, and naturally 5G help. With the Samsung Galaxy S23 line prone to land in early 2023, we’ll assess the accuracy of those leaks quickly sufficient.

Evaluation: how this compares to the Galaxy S22 Extremely

If we take these specs as correct, then a variety of issues are most likely going to be related on this cellphone to the Samsung Galaxy S22 Extremely.

The display screen measurement and determination are the identical, the size and weight are very related (suggesting that the design might be related too), and the standard battery capability is prone to be the identical. Storage and RAM quantities are additionally related, although you may get the S22 Extremely with 128GB of storage, which isn’t listed right here.

The principle variations are the chipset and the cameras. For the previous, it is a typical and anticipated improve, however one that ought to imply the Samsung Galaxy S23 Extremely is considerably extra highly effective than its predecessor.

For the latter, effectively, as famous above we’re deeply skeptical of those digicam specs, however for reference, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Extremely has a 108MP major sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide, a 10MP telephoto (providing 3x optical zoom) and a 10MP telephoto providing 10x optical zoom.

We’d count on the identical lens varieties and zoom ranges on the Samsung Galaxy S23 Extremely, nevertheless it’s attainable that the megapixels for some have modified – most notably to a 200MP main sensor, which is an improve that might assist the Galaxy S23 Extremely safe a spot among the many greatest digicam telephones.
