An ideal compact phone from the Android stable. iPhone is already there but not everybody is accustomed to iOS. Grab it if you are passionate about small size phones.

6 month feedback/opinion:
Positives: Feels snappy, CPU is good but only medium amount of RAM. Screen is alright.
Negatives: Very soft metal/paint frame scratches and dents easily. No SD card is a downgrade from my old phone. No headphone jack. No IR blaster. Nothing to set it apart.
VERY negatives: Worst camera package on a phone I've had since the original Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 though. The blurriness on both front facing and main camera is terrible. Front facing pictures comes out blurry more often than not. Can't properly turn off post-processing that heavily smoothes pictures without shooting RAW in Pro Mode and those turn out super grainy (even JPEG gets post-processed). I think the cameras are just terrible? Takes worse photos and videos than my old S20 FE, that's for sure. It's genuinely frustrating and I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
Overall nothing special about it, removed features I had with my previous phone. Wanted a small premium phone but camera heavily disappoints. I'm "whelmed" and not entirely happy with it.

Does S23 make a good device even for 2024. After receiving ai features and 6.1 ui and it also has hit the sales of almost 20k INR discount on flipkart.
I like small phones.
What's the opinion here.

There are tons of videos online of S23 phones fully operational while submerged under water, Some videos even show a complete device tear down and inspection after the submersion test, showing no water damage to the internal hardware. There are laws against companies making false claims about their products being sold in the USA. It is quite foolish of you to conclude that Samsung is lying about the S23 IP rating based solely on the fact that your S23 was defective.

Exikias, 22 Apr 2024Does anyone have problems with the charging port of the device?I had after gently wiping S23 with wet wipes. Supposedly IP68 water and dust protection, until you find out it's just a marketing and phone has Zero water resistance.
Had to blow the charging port with a hair dryer, put it into oven @90°C for 2 minutes and somehow managed to charged it via laptop. Then I deleted all USB port-related cache and data. Now works OK.
But I advise you to buy something better like Asus Zenfone 10 or Meizu 21, a lot better phones with better cameras and no issues. Samsungs have plenty of issues.

Anonymous, 15 Apr 2024Hey everyone, kindly put thoughts forward for experience of... moreNothing ground breaking.
Most AI feature one is going to use after 15-20 days; is about camera.
And one is writing style.
3rd is circle to search.
Battery life is not impacted.
AI generated wall papers are not out of blue.
If you are using samsung notes, it will help.
If you are not natively english speaking person, then AI features related voice are not of much use.
No random shut off after update, so bug free.
No slowing down; as I am not expecting this as this just one year old phone.

Yeah, gotta be the fact that there is not that much demand. Personally I would never go for S23 if I can get 23+ not only it has faster charging but bigger battery and while faster charging is artificially lowered, bigger battery probably wouldnt fit in the base 23.
If your paying small fortune might as well see everything on a more comfortable screen. I believe that's what most people think, including me. And its really the same story with midrange because for a lot of people that midrange price will be small fortune, they are either not too wealthy or simply don't want to spend more on a thing like smartphone.
