Samsung Galaxy A23 5G has been launched in Japan and it’s quite different from the Galaxy A23 that was unveiled in select global markets earlier in August.

As of now, there is no information on the international availability of this new Samsung Galaxy A23 5G variant. It appears to be specific to Japan. 

Samsung Galaxy A23 5G specifications

The new Samsung Galaxy A23 5G variant runs on Android 12 and features a 5.8-inch HD+ (720×1,560 pixels) TFT display with 16 million colours. The previous version had a 6.6-inch Infinity-V display with a full-HD+ resolution. The new phone is powered by a 2.2GHz octa-core processor coupled with 4GB of RAM. This could be a reference to the MediaTek Dimensity 700 SoC.

Connectivity options include 5G, 4G/LTE, Bluetooth v5.2, NFC, a 3.5mm audio jack and a USB Type-C port. Further, Samsung has packed a 4,000mAh battery in the new variant.
