Samsung Galaxy S23 series, which is said to include three models —Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra— is expected to be launched in February next year. The smartphone family is yet to be confirmed by the South Korean smartphone maker, even though leaks have been in abundance. The Galaxy S23 series is said to be powered by Qualcomm's flagship chips and now a latest earnings call from Qualcomm seemingly confirms this rumour. Qualcomm's Chief Financial Officer highlighted that the chip supplier would benefit from the launch of a new Samsung smartphone in the second half of the March quarter. This is likely to tally with the rumoured release date of the Galaxy S23 series.
Qualcomm provided Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC for the Galaxy S22 Ultra models in select markets. In some regions, the Galaxy S22 series pack Exynos 2200 under the hood.
Samsung and Qualcomm signed a multi-year agreement in July this year to equip Snapdragon chipsets for future Samsung Galaxy products globally. The agreement includes PCs, tablets, extended reality and more. The extension encomes 3G, 4G, and 5G technologies and devices and will also include future 6G standards and products.
The anticipated Galaxy S23 series is likely to come with upgrades over this year's Galaxy S22 lineup. Recent Geekbench listings allegedly confirmed the presence of a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset on the Galaxy S23, Galaxy 23+ and Galaxy 23 Ultra models.
