Purchase 2024/01 - feedback to 23 Jan Pros: Essentially the same as my A33 5G. No real change and functionality similar plus additional (mandatory) take up of apps. eSIM only reason for upgrade. Not yet trialed. Cons: Battery depletes faster than A33. Constant updates so far. Possibly adding to battery usage. May change…. Constant requests to log in to useless apps that don’t add value to my life. Boarding on harassment. Can wait for cyber crime to include unsolicited requests for apps despite already rejecting offer. No means No. Bluetooth connection to Boom3 not happening. Why so hard…. Thank god for iPad. Overall. Does this improve my life. So far frustrating.

I have been using the s23FE non stop for 10 days traveling in Italy. I change from a s21FE , which I considered th best phone, to the s23FE, which I can only considered as a overall very good phone. There is only 1 thing wrong about the s23FE which is the weight. It is just a painful experience from changing from s21FE, 30+grams heavier is a lot. I am considering changing back to s21FE, cos none of the other flagship phone is as light as it and got a 6.4inch screen. Not the s22plus, not the s23plus. I hope Samsung will have a light weight flagship once again. The weight is the only issue at the moment. Hope someone is looking into it.

The Samsung S23 FE edition smartphone is an excellent phone that excels on the best things held within the Samsung S20... From the seamless transitions to beautiful UHD Graphic display and the amazing cameras... The one main thing that will probably go unnoticed by the common reviewer online and people alike is the new Samsung S23 FE screen... This screen not only resists scratches and damage better... NOT only provides better performance and colour... BUT do u have a smudge on it? rub it off ... Don't need a microfiber cloth don't need to worry about the smudges forming together... Nope just rub it off Excellent design

I was previously using the S21 but since I've just finished my contract, I wanted to upgrade my handset to a more recent model so I could give my older phone to my mum to use. This is a great addition with a slightly wider screen. The fingerprint login is a bit different using an optical sensor over the more familiar tactile one kind of like the light you see under your smartwatch. There's also a USB-C to USB-C cord but no charger which is fine and easy to connect to your computer or what you may get with the more recent wireless or flatbed charger options. Overall it's a great phone for an affordable price compared to other models.

Phone turned up next day which was great, not great they DIDN'T wait for me to activate new Phone, so as I'll in bed, was suddenly cut off from from ALL internet - not good when sick ! So crawled out of bed few hours later, and opened box, and mobile box covered in human blonde hair! At least 12 -20! So rang Optus help. Said happy to keep if guarantee ph new, but got VIBE to get it replaced. Being home-bound disabled, asked if person dropping off REPLACEMENT S23 FE could pls take return phone, but no. It's THEIR problem, why shld I pay to get wheelchair access to P.O. to return hair covered phone? Is some girl from Phillipines (frm where ph sent from) trying to send a HELP msg? What do I do
I bought this because it was supposed to be better than the oppo but long lasting battery is a lie when I'm not using the phone the battery lasts about 5 hours. And when using the phone depending on whether I'm on Facebook or watching YouTube the battery drains from 75% down to 5% within 10 minutes. The other issue I have is internet connection! when I'm connected to a WiFi network it says not connected to the internet so I have to restart my phone for it to work and when I'm using mobile data I have to do the same thing. Constantly having to restart the phone just to do my banking or to watch youtube or search something online

This is an upgrade from the S20FE. I give the screen size 5 stars, but much thicker than the S20FE. That is why I have only given it 3 stars. I don't like the grey around the sides. But I have the Mint colour and it is nice. Just a shame it isn't on the sides as well. I did buy the case for it so it does hide the grey. Haven't used the cameras yet so can't comment on them I Have found the speaker when receiving a call very quiet. Again not sure if it is the case muffling the sound. But wouldn't think it is as it is a genuine case. Overall it is a nice phone and if you don't mind the chunkyness of it I would recommend it.

My last phone was near death and I had looked at the s22 perviously as a suitble replacement. By the time I needed a phone the S23 FE was out so I was happy to be getting a new release. Ive had this a few weeks now and think it was the right choice for me. I had to migrate what I could from my old Huawei P40 and couldn't use the samsung app to do this. I figured out how to get what I needed across and to be honest its always good to have a fresh start with things like photos/videos which i can always access on the ☁️. 10/10 for me, bought it from Harvey Norman, Mt Maunganui, staff were happy, helpful, helpful to one another and as quick as they could be.

I bought this unit direct from Samsung and the process was simple with plenty of opportunities to save extra money with the trade-in option (my old S9 however wasn't worth anything 😅). Shipping was quick and there has been follow up emails to help with setup and use tips. Setting the device up was easy using smart share and then getting in to playing with the phone is just amazing. The colours on the screen are beautiful, the smoothness of swiping and watching movies and shows is next level. I now love taking my phone to golf because the cameras and software help me take the most picturesque photos to show my family.

For being a fan Samsung electronics from my TV,Fridge,Microwave all my previous phones were Samsung , this is the first time I feel disappointed. THE BATTERY life last only for a day and you have to charge everyday. This is the reason I think they offer free powerbank because battery did not last unlike other models. I DID NOT INSTALL any more apps compared to my previous phones. HAVE TO OPTIMISE THE PHONE,UPDATE THE SOFTWARE, CUSTOMISE THE DISPLAY BUT STILL BATTERY IS HELPLESS. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THIS PHONE AND I REGRET. I SPOKE TO CUSTOMER SERVICE AND TOLD THEM I AM HAPPY TO PAY EXTRA TO GET RID OF THIS S23FE AND GET DIFFERENT MODEL INSTEAD BUT THEY SAID SEND IT BACK FOR THEM TO DO REFRESH and Wait for another week to see how the phone performs. AND IS MORE THAN 1 WEEK ALREADY THE PHONES BATTERY STILL SUCKS HAVE TO KEEP CHARGING IT..LIKE I DONT HAVE TIME TO DO THUS AS I NEED THE PHONE DAILY FOR MY WORK AND KIDS CONTACT.

If you're looking for a new phone with everything you need and more, you might want to check out the Galaxy 23 FE. This phone is an excellent choice for anyone who loves taking photos, playing games, or watching videos on a stunning display. The Galaxy 23 FE has a quad-camera system that lets you capture amazing shots in any lighting condition, a powerful processor that can handle multitasking and heavy apps, and a battery that lasts all day and charges fast. Plus, the phone has a sleek design and comes in various colours to suit your style. The Galaxy 23 FE is a great phone that offers much value for your money.

I bought this in the last cpl weeks and I'm genuinely so happy with it. The features are easier to use and find. Moving all my phone data, photos wtc was suoer easy and unlike my old A73 this phone actually plays my music and takes decent photos 🙌 It may not be a $2000 phone and its certainly not a cheap sh*t phone, its a happy medium. I found my spelling and typing on the old phone horrendous, it would never pick up the letters i was touching but this phone gets it first time everytime. Very happy and would definitely recommend for a decent middle of the range phone. 2 enthusiastic thumbs up.

I upgraded my phone because my older Samsung was not holding power long enough for me. I had that battery checked out but it was ok. However, when I saw the BlackFriday deal for the Galaxy S23 FE, I decided to upgrade. Now I find that this phone (of which I have had for just over one week) is doing the same. It doesn't hold power for a day. I would usually put my phone on the charger overnight.... I am currently having to charge it through the day. I like the Samsung Fast Charging ability. I am disappointed as this phone is not getting me through the day, just as my older phone did. I am a retiree living on my own and rely/use my phone a lot. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Love this awesome new FE!!! I am a big fan of Fan Edition

Generally a good phone that fits into your pocket unlike some of the largest phones. However it still has the same old clunky Samsung apps you cant get rid of. Some of the apps ask you to accept access to the phone features but no info as to what the app does and why I should accept its function. Its also very slippery and hard to hold so buying a case is mandatory or your likely to drop it. It does fit well into my pocket due to the smaller screen size. I wish Samsung would clean up its apps. EG the excellent Samsung health app cannot be used unless you give access to your all your contacts. I don't want to use that sharing function so access is denied due to compulsory access thats required.

So after really pushing my Samsung S10 to it's absolute limit over the past 3 years, I finally upgraded last week! And I'm so glad that I chose the Samsung S23 FE in a beautiful mint green colour. The camera is crisp and clear, the battery life is fantastic and it has all the bells and whistles you could want. Plus just quietly, I am still yet to buy a case and screen protector and I accidentally dropped it yesterday. It took the fall like an absolute tank! Not a single scratch or blemish in sight. Will definitely still be getting all the right protection for the future though!

I have only upgraded to this phone only a week ago and found how easy it is to use. It is such a privilege to use this phone. I have over many years was disappointed previous models but have not found any down sides to this phone. It does not seem to have issues with rapid battery depletion even when using social media or high load programs. This phone just seems to be so much more friendly to use and am discovering more things that it can do to improve my day. Finally happy with this product and can see myself holding on to this quality product for a long time to come.

Samsung galaxy s23 fe, it's the Fan Edition so not the flagship model, but it's definitely the main gun. Simply put, if you want the features of the s23 without the s23 price tag then you got gotta at least check out this phone. It would be a long review indeed if I went through the whole list of features it has, besides there are plenty of reviews already available that do that. But, as an owner I can say that I’m very pleased with it so far. Great battery life, full glass front and back (so get a decent case) and camera quality and function are brilliant. So what's not to like? Basically the price. I got mine on a sale and I recommend you do to, but if you just can't wait then in my opinion it won’t let you down.

I got this not even 10 days ago, and over all I'm pretty happy with the phone, but a bit dissapointed that these days phones don't come with the wall charging plug any more as I don't have any usb-c to usb-c wall plugs... and so that's a bit frustrating but also disappointed that the phone doesn't come with a basic phone cover or even basic screen protection.. like come on Samsung people spend how much ehese days on phones? They would cost almost sweet nothing to produce and consumers will be 100000× happier In the end.. anyway Samsung, that's some food for thought!!

Battery doesn't even last a day, very disappointing. Not being used for YouTube or social media a lot (less than an hour a day), I use the phone for maybe to check some emails and some phone calls, still won't last a day, put it in Battery saver, less notifications, not being used with any other smart devices, removed the Samsung tags also for charging issues. Even the basic A52 battery lasts longer than the new S23FE, and that one is a workphone. Not worthy.

Bought this phone about a week ago when trading in my old S10+ and the device came two days ago. Very fast shipping and amazing performance, the camera is drop-dead gorgeous and is 100% a worthy successor to my old phone. The speed it opens up apps and the 120hz display is absolutely amazing! I would 100% refer the phone to my friends/family as it is an amazing phone! I would have preferred it had an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner but optical gets the job done! The resolution is at a sweet spot, preserving battery life but an option of 1440p would have been nice.

I find that this S23FE heats up very quickly, if you choose not to have a case on your phone I don't like how slippery the phone is but that's just me and minor details. Other than that if you're looking for a budget S series it very affordable. Camera is great

Got it as part of my work phone package. I use it for double profile (personal and work), very easy to setup. Work profile stays separate to personal. Very fast. Crisp screen, Fast 120Hz refresh but I use 60Hz for longer battery life. Andriod 14. Initial setup takes a while because the system immediatelt starts updating to the latest version of android. The battery seems smallish, 4500mah compared to my M30's 5000mah...but the runtime is more than 12 hours for my usage style. The thickness of the phone is a fair bit though especially with casing...no idea why.

i brought this gut over a week ago, it has been taken in to a shop 4 times for a factory reset, it doesnt remember my biometrics it doesnt remember my face my finger print or my password, went into Optus and got told it would be sent overseas to be looked at, so far it has cost me $137 just for the resets not to mention the 10km drive in and out of the city 8 times plus the $77 to put a new battery in my old Samsung just so i have a phone and the $19 i have also spent on my old phone to get a new fingerprint reader

I have only had my s23Fe for about a week, and I am still getting used to the differences with my old phone, I have had a few oppo phones previously, but I'm very impressed. It really feels like a high end phone, but without the high cost! So impressed with the camera and the screen and build quality are excellent. Really looking forward to learning all the tricks about this phone, and I'm sure I will love it even more!!!!

I had the same phone for 8 years with no interest of upgrading. Phones are simply a communication tool for me. By chance I opened a Samsung Australia email which i never normally do. The deal they offered and all the free stuff thrown in was too good to pass up. Initial thoughts, its fast, and does stuff I'll never use. It was easy to setup. Its a bit heavy though and even with everything disabled and all the flashed stuff turned off its still battery heavy. My A70 was way better in this regard. I guess Samsung knew it too as they gave me a external battery pack. But overall its more than i'll ever need and Im happy with my choice. I gave it 5 stars for value at the price Samsung gave it to me for, I never buy these overpriced phones.

I've had the 23FE for a week now after having a different Android (and hating it) I am relieved to get back to the familiar features if a Galaxy. This is perfect for what I need, having all the Samsung features I love like routines, bixby and it makes my old galaxy watch work much better. It has been getting hot with a lot of use, but I've been thoroughly exploring and setting up everything I've missed having.

My partner bought this phone for me as my Christmas present. The phone looked good initially and i didn't use the phone until the screen protector arrived. When I started using my phone it would heat up really badly like it felt like the screen was on fire every time, I used it. And the camera quality was not as good as i expected as the photos inside a room in dark would all be blurry. I took my phone to the Samsung store to get it checked. These were the solutions provided to me: 1. Over heating- "You need to stop the adaptive brightness feature and manually adjust the brightness of the phone". The phone stopped overheating when i stopped using the adaptive brightness feature but i am very disappointed that my Samsung A52 had the feature and i had no issue of overheating and i spent so much more money to get a better phone but now i have to manually adjust the brightness which does not meet serve the purpose of using a "smart phone". 2. Blurry photos: "You need to change the megapixel every time you take photos inside. You cannot expect the same feature as S23 pro". It resolved the issue but again did not serve the purpose of using advanced technology and new system

I bought this phone about 2 weeks ago after I had shatter the back camera on my Samsung Galaxy A31 as well as the front screen. The cost was not worth it to replace so I looked into a new A34. After seeing the price I would pay on a plan I looked further and opted for this phone as the price was fair and the features seemed amazing. Not having to pay the extra for the top of the line phone that had all the great specs and power seemed like a deal I couldn't miss. The phone quality, features, camera, speed and smoothness when using it is top quality and the best of the best. The phone is just perfect for day to day usage and I love it so much already. Definitely would recommend for anyone looking for a top spec phone but not the extra price tag.

I got this phone a few weeks ago, I have had few issues except that because the flash is flush and the cameras protrude the case distorts the light from the torch/flash which has been problematic. The colour is pretty, personally I'd prefer a more vibrant purple but it's not a deal breaker. It charges quite fast but also goes flat faster than I expected and probably the biggest issue I have is that even with the volume right up both loud speaker and the normal speaker are both quite quiet so I often struggle to hear during a call.

Bought this phone a week ago as my previous Samsung galaxy A70 decided to not to turn on again (Motherboard issues). A bit smaller screen than a A70 but performance is great comparing to my old phone. Camera and picture quality is great but didn't like the camera poking out of the phone. The features are good but too many unnecessary notifications. Changed notification setting but still getting some unwanted notifications. Good phone but felt could be better by providing screen protector and a silicone case with the packaging.

This phone is great value for money, especially compared to something like the a54. Camera quality is never missed with this phone, shooting clear and aesthetic photos in evey setting. It doesn't struggle with anything, only heats up while playing intensive games such as CarX Street on max graphics. The 25w charging is insane, however the battery life is okay for a new phone. The battery only just finished calibrating (took about 3 days) and it has improved since I first got the phone however it seems to use power while in sleep, with nothing open or in background, that may be something I have to look into further, or it could just be the phone using power in background. Nevertheless it still gets about 5 hours of screen on time which is normally enough for a whole day, but it's easy to top off with the 25w charging. Overall it is a great phone for the money, smashing any phone under its price point, and it ain't far off anything more expensive.

I have upgraded from S20FE. The wider dimensions give you a better weighted feel. Everything is faster, and the touch screen has a real smooth and silky feel of the touch screen. It is amazing. The camera tastes really crisp, beautiful photos. The detail it picks up gives a real professional look.

I had used my first Samsung Galaxy (S8) over six years. This year, the time to upgrade came, as many apps required a newer version of Android. I've selected S23FE, which combined the desired format (smaller phone), features and the good price (promotion for less than AU$800). After using the phone for more than four months, I am happy with it, especially with the camera (good high-res photos in low light conditions) and snappy apps. Battery life is acceptable, but with heavier use it must be charged every night.

I purchased this phone a few weeks ago - it has a sound defect whereby you are unable to listen to voice messages, online music and vid's etc. as the sound is distorted, crackling and muffled to a point where you cannot understand what is being said. The ringtone is also affected. I am disappointed that I bought this model. I have spoken with Samsung and now have to take the phone to an approved technician to either correct the problem or tell me that it cannot be repaired. Most inconvenient and disappointing.

Samsung's Galaxy S23 FE is by far the best phone I've ever used!! I've recommended the Galaxy S23 FE to all of my family and friends who now own one. It's amazingly easy to use for people of all ages. Your old apps and data (inc. photo's, video's & contact info.) seamlessly transfer to the S23 FE automatically with the Samsung Smart Switch App. Purchase with the Samsung Care+ provides complete protection for all accidental breakage and breakdown for up to 2 years. Become part of the Samsung family today!!!

The phone is snappy and responsive, works perfectly! Good size screen easy to use. Decent battery life but I would recommend a power bank if you're going to be using it on the go all day while out and about. However the promo for the free galaxywatch6 through optus so far hasn't worked out for me, I have provided pictures of my my proof of purchase and of the phone with all the details Samsung ask for in the images and have been told that my information is invalid 3 times now. Not a happy Samsung customer

I got this fe23 as a gift. I am super satisfied as it is my first triple camera set up phone. I think that the phone does everything a first time Samsung user would need. It brings all the essential features like dex, triple camera step up, high refresh rate of a S series phone. Unless a customer needs latest hardware and software to the max than an FE will do the job. The only thing negative i would highlight is the bezels are too big. But is just a minor issue. A great phone overall.

This purchase was a no-brainer from the start. As soon as it was announced I knew I had to have it. I went for the Samsung-exclusive orange colour and it was better in the flesh, also the bonus trade and early bird offers and my trade-in meant that I had money to take up the Samsung Care Plus program giving me peace of mind. The phone itself is fast and takes great photos what more could someone ask for? Oh, I almost forgot to mention that it also came with four Smart tags and a Battery Pack. Bonus....

I bought this model after reading several reviews of similar products. I was wanting a new phone that would take great photos, without having to pay big dollars! I have just returned from a trip across Australia, and have an amazing set of photos taken with this model Galaxy. It really has met my high expectations in this area! The only negative comment I have, is that the battery does not last very long, especially when taking photos or videos. Even with minimal use, battery barely lasts a day.

Screen size good. Camera good. Ease of setting up poor. A lot of changes to the phone features were unnecessary and the instructions are not intuitive. For example when I want to look at the open apps I used to have a list from which I could delete individual apps if I wished. The S23FE gives you the apps in pages which you have to scroll over. Time consuming and annoying. I think that any new software should be vetted by 'non expert' users. This applies to most software I come across these days.

Bought this phone as a upgrade to my aging A71 which was no longer charging as i did not want to by a flagship phone as social media is not important to me just wanted a good priced phone with cordless QI charging capability incase the charging port goes again this phone ticked all my boxes. Good phone with so many features that i will probably not use but am upset that none of the new phones have a headphones jack as this is just a no brainer over Bluetooth headphones that go flat all the times

The Samsung Galaxy S23 FE is a flagship phone with premium features and performance without the flagship price tag. The device becomes warm during intensive tasks, indicating potential thermal management concerns. The low-light performance of the camera is commendable. This phone is a compelling choice for me seeking a balance between cost and functionality. Lastly, Samsung Galaxy S23 FE stands out as a well-rounded smartphone that delivers a flagship-like experience at a more affordable price.

I put a lot of thought into this purchase and I think I made the right choice. Yes the phone is a little bigger and heavier than I'm used too but really not enough that I'm regretting it. The screen is beautiful to use, and I'm still discovering new features that are making the phone a delight to use. The camera is awesome and I'm loving playing with the updated features. If I had a small negative - shes a slippery sucker - definitely needs a rubber case - all in all tho - awesome sauce phone!

I upgraded from the S7, which I purchased in early 2016, to the S23 FE 1 week ago. The upgrade was quick & very easy with no problems. The ease of operation has been amazing. The S23 FE has delivered all the benefits and improvements I had anticipated plus more. From something as simple as being able to recharge the mobile in minutes rather than sometimes many hours, the significantly improved definition of the camera, the screen size and clarity and not least of all the speed of operation.

the phone surprised me with its performance and battery life, on an ideal usage, with always the data and wifi on, i am getting a stand by time of more than 24 hours! The photos from the camera are awesome, and the selfie camera too is very good, low light pictures are amazing I havent playing much games, so not sure on that front, no heating issue The charging time is also low, it gets upto 50% within an hours charge. It suits my usage and i am happy that i bought this product.

Upgraded from tired S9+, huge difference. Great all round phone. Needs a case as very slick without one, almost hard to hold. Thought the battery life would be a bit better though (although still good).

I upgraded from a s21 and have fallen completely in love with this phone. It's a larger chunkier phone, but it doesn't feel big or cumbersome at all keeping its beautiful streamline physique that sumsung are known for. The screen is absolutely beautiful. I went mint this time and the colour is beautiful that it's going to be a shame to put a protective case on. As the brand new s24 has just been released, the value of the s23 are now better than ever with brilliant discounts available.

Bought this phone in 08/24, very disappointed with it, regret my purchase. Very very heavy, did I mention its heavy, pulls my pants down.... Operating system is glitchy, keeps calling emergency services all on its own. Hate that the volume control is on the same side as the power, I turn screen off every time instead of changing volume. Don't like or want any of this AI rubbish. No slot for a SD card. Poor reception. The old S8 I thought I was upgrading from was a much better device.

My 6 year old Samsung Galaxy was still working, but my son persuaded me to upgrade, and I'm so glad I did. All the data from my old phone was easily transferred and so many handy new features were added. I am currently touring Europe and taking great quality photos which I easily send to family back home. I can easily listen to the radio back home, control my bank accounts, book travel and talk to family and friends. My new Samsung has made travel so much more enjoyable and easy.

I recently updated my S20fe to the new S23fe. The old phone was still working well, it did however have a crack through the screen, so when the new one was launched I decided to update. I love these phones, they take great photos and have everything that I need in a phone and a good phone for the price. Staff at Samsung transferred all my contacts and Apps over, it is a simple process going from Samsung to Samsung, they do make it simple though! Very happy with my purchase so far.

Came up from an S21 and this one feels chunkier and chunkier. Ordered it online so hadn't seen it in store. I've also noticed it's slow to load programs and internet pages.
Very bad experience it's overheat and switch off again and again and turn on itself constantly 3_4 times very bad experience for s23fe..... Not Happy with this.. Device..

I bought this phone 1 week before black friday Nov 2023, and I'm so glad I did. I always look for "price vs performance" when I buy phones, so I look for the highest spec phone with the most features for the lowest possible price. while the FE isn't "the Cheapest", you get the whole list of features that are usually reserved for the higher priced "S series" phones for a significantly cheaper price margin. keeping this in mind, this has become my recommended phone purchase for 2023

I recently decided to upgrade my phone as my old had clealry passed its used by date I originally had an iphone but I decided to switch to the samshng FE because I was so frustrated with the low quality of the camera and the lack of any real developments and exciting features of the newer iPhone models but still they had an insane price tag. The camera on this phone is mindblowing. The battery life lasts FOREVER. And was way more affordable than any of the iPhones I considered.

So am 2 weeks into my S23 FE & as a Muso, Artist & photographer & have to say I'm VERY impressed. Got the FE (as opposed to 23/Ultra/+) to save $ but so far I'm yet to see what I'm missing out on. All photos & videos so far, inc night, day, close up, social media & hi-res for Music Video work, are sharp, vibrant, hi definition & easy to work with. The physical zooms as well as digital are perfect for varied subjects & settings. Audio wise it's different settings, inc Dolby Atmos, make it ideal in pretty much every setting, inc using my new Tinnitus-Based Hearing Aids (30 years of rock/metal bands) & adjusting sounds to suit different media. Speed wise it accomplishes everything almost straight away, screen is great for viewing media, using navigation apps, games & everything else & the brightness level is off the dial even in sunlight. Phone wise the volume & features do everything I need & more & moving all my media, apps & settings from the old phone was simple. Only downsides would be lack of SD card (upgraded to the 256 to compensate) & no notification light on front (still miss my old S8 for that). Great phone all up.

I bought the s23fe with good expectations, how wrong I was, I had a galaxy s20fe before and in my opinion way better phone. Sorry samsung but the s23fe is rubbish. Continually drops put of wifi and its got nothing to do with distance, you can be standing right next to the wifi and it will just drop out. Tried everything to no avail. The camera lenses, what a silly design, why have them raised from the surface of the phone where they can be broken so easily????

Being in the 70+ club sometimes technology can be hard. However, over two days the phone is setup the way I like. Love the ease of app downloads. Being retired and travelling the camera is an absolute bonus. Great scree, vivid pictures and editing procedures will be learnt soon. Does look good from what I’ve learnt so far. Even makes and receives phone calls, love it. Another plus for the 70+ crowd the ability to increase font size👀. My first Samsung, won’t be my last.

This is the first phone my husband and I bought outright. It is affordable with up to date tech and smooth operation. I am a Samsung girl since a teenager and I am always so excited for a new phone. Setting up was so easy, it moved everything over from my previous phone(Samsung Galaxy S20) within an hour including 5 years worth of videos and photos! The Samsung S23FE is perfect for gaming and social apps, takes awesome photos and I love the personalised message service.

I have been using an old S7 for the last 8 years and LOVED my old little phone. Unfortunately some of the apps were no longer working because of the age of the phone. I was disappointed to say goodbye to my old friend/phone but decided it was time to upgrade when I could no longer get into the banking app. Luckily my transition to my new S23 FE has been wonderful and I have fallen in love again. I thought I was going to miss my old S7 but now I ask... what S7?

I have only had this a week but so far so good. I am surprised at how much data I have used to bring it up to date but maybe that will reduce over time. I was also surprised the weight of the phone but I have fitted a protective cover so maybe that's what is heavy. Still got a lot to learn on how to do things. I'm old so it's a little confusing at first. I have upgraded from a Telstra branded ZTE phone and this is soon much better. Glad I made the upgrade.

Recently received as a gift and it is the perfect phone for social media, keeping up to date with the kids schedule and capturing the perfect photos and videos. The camera makes it easy to take professional like photos of sporting events and capturing that special moment. I had done a lot of research in to the best camera phone and whilst it was not at the top of the list it definitely exceeded my expectations and fitted the price bracket I was looking at.

I managed to get this phone on sale, and even more so with Samsung trade in. The phone itself is very powerful having a Samsung exynos 2200, because of this I was able to sync my Nintendo switch pro controller to the phone and use it as a console. The camera is great, and I had a lot of fun with pro mode and seeing all the things I could create; I have no need for a photo editing software either because Samsung's built in photo editor is good enough for me.

I bought this phone a week ago as a replacement for my old Oppo phone. I decided to change to Samsung to see how it compares. I have to say that I am very happy with the Samsung phone. It has all the features of the Oppo and more. I did have to search to find them but that's to be expected with any new phone. My Samsung S23 FE has a nice bright, large screen, great security features and is very easy to learn and use. The battery can go all day but not if you play a lot of high res games. I like the feature which stops charging after it reaches 60% (if you enable it) to save the battery from degrading. Great resolution on the cameras. Easy to scan QR codes. Has all the features you'd expect like panoramic shot, also can create moving GIFs. It could do with a factory fitted screen protector, though. I highly recommend this phone.

I've really enjoyed having this phone so far. I upgraded from a nearly 7 year old Samsung. The first thing I noticed is that the new phone is really thick compared to my other phone but I have very quickly gotten used to this. It has good battery life and lasts me two days even with a decent amount of use. The screen is really clear and scrolls really smoothly. I get a full charge on this phone on a 20w charger in just over an hour, which is amazing.

I bought this phone one week ago and like it, lower resolution compared to note 10 plus. It's really upsetting that I accidentally dropped it only 5 days after purchasing this phone, and there is a crack on the screen. There is no Samsung authorised repair centre in Canberra, which is shocking- given Canberra is the national capital... It would cost me $300 to repair the screen and I need to mail it to NSW. I am not sure if it's worth it. Very upset.

Had this phone for 2 weeks now and I'm so glad I decided on the FE model. Great battery life, smooth transition between my S20 and the FE, very responsive and user friendly. All my previous preferences were transferred across and I had minimal issues re-implenting my accounts. The phone almost seems intuitive to how I work with suggestions, hints, tips and tricks popping up just when I seem to need them. Overall, very happy with this phone.

I love my new Galaxy S23 FE. The quality is excellent for the price I had paid for. I used to be the iPhone lover. I never consider any other mobile phones since I purchased my first Galaxy S10E in 2019 and upgraded S10E to Galaxy S21FE in 2021. I love it because of the galaxy's features especially the quality of the photos and videos that I took for my overseas travelling. It has been a very valuable fond memory for me and for my family.

I've been holding on to my older Galaxy phone for a number of years as I loved it and just didn't think I needed an upgrade. I finally gave in and bought the S23 FE a couple of weeks ago. OMG, what a great phone! Its so intuitive, the camera is fantastic, so many options and the bluetooth range is so much better. Just everything is refined. And the mint colour.... gorgeous! I'm in love and its my new favourite thing. Just love, love, love it!

This was a quick purchase that wasn't planned as my old mobile unfortunately got dropped and screen went black.......forever. As I was used to a brilliant camera on my old phone, I was a but reluctant to this one but it takes just as good pictures and I haven't even gone through all the different features it has in camera mood. Looking forward to explore the rest of the mobile as time goes. Easy to get covers that fits. Very happy, thank you.

My husband gave me my new phone this month as a wedding anniversary present. I am learning how to use it with online FAQ with goggle utube plus many calls to our daughter who has had a Samsung S23 for some time. Hubby has one as well but he tends to just take mine and fix the problem for me which is lovely but I don't learn much by that. In six months I'm sure I'll be much better by then though the family will have uptraded to another model.

I've only just purchased this phone but so far I'm loving it. It has way more storage than my old A20. Its easy to use, photo quality is so much better. The phone itself has been so easy for me to use as navigating it is similar to my old phone. Early days yet but for me personally it is a great phone & I'm glad I brought it. The price was good as I shopped around & managed to get it new & unlocked for $913 including postage.

My partner both needed to replace our existing and ageing Samsung S9 and S20+ phones due to increadingly poor battery performance and cracked screens. Being long term Samsung Galaxy owners, we loved our old phones but it would be pointless and cost prohibitive to repair the old technogoly. We decided on purchasing our new FE S23s on a plan, knowing full well that a new model was weeks away from release, because of the great deals being offered on run out deals. I had read all the reviews and decided that we might take a small hit on performance with the run-out models however I couldn't justify the price difference between the older tested phones compared to the newer but untested models. We are not disapointed or sorry and love our new phones, great clear screens, good performance, massive storage (256Gb) great build, very responsive, incredible cameras.

Phone was recommended by a store to me, I wanted enough features but none that I would not use. This phone fits the bill perfectly. Great battery life, good speakers and it just has a really good feel to it. Once again, Samsung to Samsung data transfer was seamless, love that! Camera is really good and I have found the screen to be better than my last Samsung, it's bright and the touch screen feels more responsive.

a great phone for everyday use for a more senior person. Easy to hold and handle with great visibility on screen and easy-to-use buttons and on-screen taps. Easy set-up and transfer from previous phone, with all functions operating as before. Photos easy to take, and images clear with great colour and clarity. Good selection of tunes, etc for ringtone and notifications. It was a great choice and am very happy indeed.

I am so impressed with how easy it was to upgrade to my new s23fe from my old s8. I was apprehensive thinking of the problems I had on my last upgrade and thought that as I had left it so long I would probably have the same problem like losing contacts etc. Not a single problem and I have my old setup in my lovely new phone. Love the size & colour, and for someone in their more senior years the ease of use ability.

I'm loving the extra security features on this phone! It gives me great peace of mind knowing that no one else can access my Wallet or login to my banking app - the fingerprint scan gives that extra layer of security my old phone didn't have. And I'm enjoying the photo editing features too - so easy and fun to send edited pics in a text message. I love it! A great Android phone with an affordable price 👌

I had wanted to change phones for a while but hadn't because I thought paying $1500 or $2000 would be way too high for me. So I decided to give the Samsung S23 FE a go because of its great characteristics and price and I haven't been happier. It's fast, intuitive and has a great camera.

I bought my S23FE about 2 weeks ago, a great improvement over my earlier S20, which was an improvement on my S8. Love the clarity and 256Gb storage, and the speed downloading is fantastic. It's a great phone and I'd certainly recommend it. One frustration though, is the difficulty adding a non-google or Outlook email, I keep getting an unable to connect advice. The Samsung self-help doesn't help.

The colours are clear and vibrant and the battery has extra grunt, and charging is a breeze as well as hands-free charging plate in my car that it is compatible with. No complaints here, easily the best pH I've ever owned.
