Shipments of the Galaxy A23 5G are expected to be cut 70% from Samsung’s original target
An unrevealed problem caused other components found on the phone, like the camera, to work poorly. After investigating the problem for a month during which it spoke with its suppliers, Samsung told Sunny Optical that while it was in the clear, the China-based supplier should have reacted quicker.
Even though Samsung did eventually discover what the problem was, it decided to reduce shipments of the phone because of the headache that the 5G model caused. Next year, Samsung plans on producing only 5 million units of the phone.
The Galaxy A23 5G features a 6.6-inch LCD display with a resolution of 1080 x 2400. Under the hood is the 6nm Snapdragon 695, a mid-range chipset designed by Qualcomm. The phone is equipped with 4GB of memory, 64 GB of storage, and a microSD slot for those needing additional storage.
Besides the 50MP primary camera with OIS, the array on the back includes a 5MP ultra-wide camera, a 2MP Macro camera for extreme close-ups, and a 2MP depth sensor. In front, you’ll find an 8MP camera for selfies and video chats. The 5000mAh battery keeping the lights on charges at 25W. And this phone does sport a 3.5mm earphone jack.
