Galaxy S23 cases hint at different camera design featuring a thin hump

The Galaxy S23 may have a camera hump, after all. Although previous renders said otherwise, these 3rd-party cases have circular cutouts and enough room for a camera hump that encompasses all three sensors. (via @UniverseIce)

Galaxy S23 with or without camera hump — both are possible

Upon further inspection of these case photos, it looks like the space left by the protective case for the alleged Galaxy S23's camera hump is minimal in both overall size and thickness. It could be that even if the Galaxy S23 has a camera hump, it will be less intrusive compared to the previous generations.

Either way, it's difficult to draw any definitive conclusions based on these recent leaks. There's still no guarantee that the Galaxy S23 will have a camera hump, even if this 3rd-party case has a suggestion of one. It could very well be an early case design, or it might have a hump even though the phone won't.

Regardless, the Galaxy S23's looks remain in question. It's a little bit too early to be sure of the Galaxy S23's exterior design to the last detail, and only time will clear up this confusion. Samsung reportedly intends to release the Galaxy S23 series earlier in 2023, following an official unveiling in January.
