The Samsung Galaxy S23+ is technically the same as the regular S23 in so many aspects. In fact, there are only three significant differences between them. As a "plus" device, obviously, it has a bigger display at 6.6 inches, which is 0.5 inches larger. The battery capacity is more, too, it packs 4,700mAh with 45W fast wired charging support compared to the 3,900mAh that supports 25W charging found on its smaller sibling. Lastly, the storage option, it only comes in two options - 256GB and 512GB, no 128GB.

As for the rest of the specs, both devices share common traits, from the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chipset, the relatively standard 8GB of memory, the 50MP triple rear camera setup, the 12MP selfie snapper, build quality, IP68 certification, and color options.

If you are going to ask us what the changes are from the last year's Galaxy S22+, we can say that there is really nothing much worth upgrading to. Don't get us wrong, if you are coming off from a different phone, then the Galaxy S23+ is worth an upgrade. But, if you already have the S22+, we can say that it is better to wait for the Galaxy S24+ or perhaps Galaxy S25+.

The upgrades that can be found on the Samsung Galaxy S23+ are headline by the SD 8 Gen 2 chipset, slightly higher 12MP front camera (10MP for the S22+), and the 200mAh additional battery capacity. In reality, these upgrades are not bad at all, especially since there isn't much room for improvements anymore.

Pricing and Availability

The Galaxy S23+ costs Php68,990 for the 256GB model and Php76,990 for the 512GB variant. Only the 512GB storage is up for pre-order for the price of the 256GB variant.
