The rumors were true, apparently. Samsung announced that its first event Galaxy Unpacked 2023 will take place on February 1, 2023 at 13:XNUMX pm Eastern Time. And, unlike last year's events, the company is comfortable with a face-to-face presentation, and has sent invitations to the media for the The Masonic Auditorium in San Francisco. But anyone who wants to, can still watch a live stream on Samsung's website, of course.
On the company's personal blog, the following was announced: A new era of Galaxy innovation is upon us. Our innovations are designed to enable incredible possibilities for people today and beyond. The new Galaxy S series will be the epitome of how we define the best experience premium. We're raising the bar and setting new standards for epic.
Samsung hasn't said what to expect, but it's not so subtly hinting at a Galaxy S23 launch between a likely teaser of triple camera in the invite (above) and the nature of their pre-order plans. Americans can reserve future Galaxy devices on February 1st. Those who sign up for the reservation system by that day will receive US$50 in Samsung Credit if they order one device or US$100 if they buy two.
Possible features of the GalaXy S23
As for what the Galaxy S23 will entail? Leaks have suggested that Samsung will ditch the Exynos chips it frequently uses in some markets in favor of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 . The S23 Ultra could also pack a 200-megapixel main camera in place of last year's model's 108MP sensor, while the regular S23 and S23+ models could have 50MP cameras. While the design might not change much, you can see improved selfie cameras, emergency satellite messaging and possibly a flat display on the Ultra variant. It's safe to say that we'll be at the event to see the new hardware for ourselves.
