The Samsung Galaxy S23 is the latest flagship smartphone from the Korean manufacturer to launch in Kenya. The phone is available in retail stores starting from Ksh 119,999 on Jumia and most other smartphone retailers across the country. This is one of the three devices in the Galaxy S23 series, the other two are the Galaxy S23+ and the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra which you can get if you are willing to spend a little bit more money.
The Samsung Galaxy S23 is not that different from its predecessor, the Galaxy S22. There are subtle differences between the two and this means that if you already have the S22, you may want to skip this series unless you really need a new phone. The differences are so small that you may not notice them.
Back to the S23, it is still a very good phone. I have one in for review that you should check back in a few weeks for my full thoughts on it. I so far love the phone, it comes with an upgraded processor, very good cameras and amazing colors.
