Galaxy Unpacked event

Innovation

Samsung is expected to announce the Galaxy S23 lineup of smartphones during the “unpacked” event.

If the company follows its established naming pattern, which we fully expect it will, that means we should see the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23 Plus and Galaxy S23 Ultra.

Those names translate into phones with size, pricing, and specs that line up with the good, better and best approach.

Some of the leaks that were shared online about the new smartphones included zoom processing, low-light photography, and design details, as well as the reported release of an ISP (Image Signal Processor).

During the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas las month, Samsung said it committed to fulfilling the promise of the connected experience.
