It was consistently rumored that the Galaxy S23 series will be more expensive than its predecessor. Multiple alleged prices were also leaked in the run-up to the launch today. We now know for sure how much the new devices are going to cost and it's good news, but not for all customers.
Samsung has confirmed that prices for the Galaxy S23 series will remain unchanged in the United States. In simple terms, that means it's going to cost the same as the Galaxy S22 series. Here's what you'll pay for the Galaxy S23 Ultra:
The Galaxy S23+ is priced as follows:
The Galaxy S23:
Prices have gone up in the United Kingdom. The 1TB, 512GB and 256GB Galaxy S23 Ultra cost £1,599, £1,399 and £1,299 respectively. The 512GB and 256GB Galaxy S23+ costs £1,149 and £1,049 whereas the 256GB and 128GB Galaxy S23 costs £899 and £849 respectively.
Samsung has said that pricing for the Galaxy S23 series will be based on the economic trends in respective global markets. What this simply means is that the new phones are going to cost more in some markets than others. If you're not located in the United States, you'll need for Samsung to confirm local pricing in your market to know if it's going to cost you more than last year's models.
This shouldn't have been the case, ideally, but the world is far from ideal. Samsung is evidently ensuring that prices remain flat in one of its most lucrative markets. It hopes that the sales matrix will be blended enough for a decent margin on its latest devices. The Galaxy S23 series will be released later this month. Pre-orders are open today.
