The Samsung Galaxy S23 is rumored to cost an additional 150 Euros (+specs)
According to a recent report by WinFuture journalist Roland Quandt, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S23 models are expected to be 100 to 150 euros more expensive in Europe than their predecessors.
Quandt cites prices from a Spanish retailer. According to the report, the least expensive Galaxy S23 model would retail for 959 euros, compared to 859 euros for the S22 at launch. The S23 Ultra is expected to start at 1409 euros, compared to 1259 euros for the S22 Ultra. Additionally, the S23+ is reportedly priced at 1209 euros at the Spanish retailer, a significant increase of 150 euros compared to the 1049 euros at which the S22+ was released. Prices will be a notch lower or higher as VAT rates differ per country. The new, even more, minimal design of the Samsung Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23+ is an evolution rather than a reinvention when compared to its predecessors. So that the optics only stick out slightly from the back, Samsung primarily "removes" the camera hump and refines a few details on the case. Samsung is expected to unveil the new models at an Unpacked event next week, which is expected to showcase the new phones.

the entry samsung phone costs 180€ do you know an iphone that costs 30€?
in my country the s22 "normal" costs less 200€ than the Iphone 14
maybe android nerds are telling the truth and not blind sighted
Back in the day, the reason there was an arguement against Iphones was that they were pricey compared to respective flagships from other manufactures. In my country they would cost about $250 more so even though it was arguably the bettter phone the price gap did not justify it. Welcome to 2023 where an entry level Samsung costs more than an entry level Iphone by $150. Wonder what features Android nerds will justify this on now.

Well, if the Samsung S53 doesnt get the same treatment, buy that instead for the same price or less.
It has a larger battery and high end features.
A friends phone lasts longer than a week on a charge, he lets me know every so often.
edit, oops, he has an A53, not sure if the same value applies to the S class.

Still using an S8, lol, and will change it only when it dies completely.
And that one came after an S4, and that came after a dumbphone.
That's how "often" I swap my mobile...
I will never be able to understand those that need to have the latest and greatest model no matter how expensive it is. Brainwashed phone-zombies...
