WHY GALAXY

Life opens up with Galaxy

Openness is what we believe in. Samsung Galaxy was created to open possibilities. The less boundaries the world has, the farther we all can go.

  1. Zooming in past 10x may cause some image deterioration.
  2. Typical value tested under third-party laboratory condition. Typical value is the estimated average value considering the deviation in battery capacity among the battery samples tested under IEC 61960 standard. Rated capacity is 3785mAh for Galaxy S23, 4565mAh for Galaxy S23+ and 4855mAh for Galaxy S23 Ultra. Actual battery life may vary depending on network environment, usage patterns and other factors.
  3. Based on Samsung internal lab test conditions with pre-release version of given model connected to earphone via Bluetooth under default settings over LTE. Estimated against battery capacity and measured voltage over battery power consumption during video playback (video file resolution 720p, saved on device). Actual video playback time varies by network connection, settings, video file format, screen brightness, battery condition and many other factors.
