Much better than its predecessor, but worse than the Galaxy S23
Samsung today officially unveiled the Galaxy S23 FE smartphone. The new model is better than its predecessor, the Galaxy S21 FE, but the volume of innovations cannot be called impressive.
Depending on the country, the Galaxy S23 FE may use either the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC or the Exynos 2200. This is a clear upgrade over the Snapdragon 888 and Exynos 2100 in the Galaxy S21 FE. The amount of RAM was 8 GB, and the amount of flash memory was 128 or 256 GB.
