You may have already heard the news about Samsung reportedly planning to unveil the Galaxy S23 series in February at an Unpacked event in San Francisco. If true, we have at least a couple more months before we can see the Galaxy S23 lineup in the flesh, and Samsung has an equal amount of time left to prepare for the official launch. The company is making preparations as we speak, as evidenced by a recent visit to the FCC.

The Galaxy S23 and the Galaxy S23+ have passed through the FCC. The documents found online have confirmed some details about the batteries powering these phones. The base Galaxy S23 model is powered by a battery that carries model number EB-BS912ABY. It has a rated capacity of 3,785, which could translate to a typical capacity of 3,900mAh. (via MySmartPrice)

The battery inside the Galaxy S23+, which was first discovered online a few months ago, carries model number EB-BS916ABY. As per the previous reports, it should be manufactured by ATL. And according to the FCC, it has a rated capacity of 4,565 mAh, which probably means Samsung will label it with a typical capacity of 4,700 mAh. Both phones appear to have been tested by the FCC using 25W super-fast chargers, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that their batteries will be capped at 25W. The Galaxy S22+ has 45W charging, so the Galaxy S23+ will probably have the same capabilities.

Although the FCC doesn’t go into details about other hardware specifications, Qualcomm and online benchmarks have pretty much confirmed that the Galaxy S23 lineup will be powered by the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, even in markets where the S flagships usually carried Exynos — and that includes Europe. From that perspective, the next Samsung flagship might be one of the most exciting in recent years. Especially if the rumors are true and the Galaxy S23 lineup has a custom Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 variant optimized for One UI.

One of the ways in which the Galaxy S23 series is technically superior to the Galaxy S22 lineup is through a new Qualcomm modem. The 2023 flagships sport the Snapdragon X70, which should be an upgrade over the S22’s Snapdragon X65 chip. At least on paper, according to the manufacturer. But what about performance in […]
