With the Galaxy S23, Samsung has launched a compact Android smartphone that has only been minimally changed compared to the Galaxy S22. In fact, Samsung has eliminated the biggest weakness and thus offers one of the best compact smartphones.

The Samsung Galaxy S23 is even more convincing in the test than the already good Galaxy S22. This is primarily thanks to the new Qualcomm processor, which is also used in Germany. The performance and efficiency are excellent as of this writing.

 The now brighter display not only creates a great display in all lighting situations, but also ensures lower consumption thanks to increased efficiency. The battery life of the Galaxy S22 was rather moderate. You got through the day with luck. With the Galaxy S23, this is history thanks to a slightly larger battery and more efficient components. Samsung has eliminated the biggest disadvantage of the Galaxy S22, which was really felt every day, and built one of the best compact smartphones with the Galaxy S23. If the charging speed were at least 45 watts and not 25 watts, it would be the almost perfect cell phone of this size for me.

I haven't noticed any major disadvantages with the Samsung Galaxy S23 over the past few weeks.The camera could perhaps take a little less gaudy pictures. But that's Samsung's style. But the price of 949 euros is much too high. Buy the 256 GB model directly because it has faster storage on board and is therefore better equipped for the future.
