The Samsung Galaxy F23 5G has just received a brand-new Copper Blush color option in India, adding a fresh look to an already capable mid-range 5G smartphone. The new variant carries the same competitive pricing and full spec sheet as the existing Aqua Blue and Forest Green models, giving buyers one more reason to consider it.
Samsung Galaxy F23 5G Price and Launch Offers
The Samsung Galaxy F23 5G is available in two storage configurations in India. The base model with 4GB RAM and 128GB internal storage is priced at Rs 15,999, while the top-end 6GB RAM and 128GB storage variant costs Rs 16,999. As a launch offer for the Copper Blush color, Samsung has partnered with ICICI Bank to provide a flat discount of Rs 1,000 on purchases made with ICICI credit or debit cards. This brings the effective price of the base model down to Rs 14,999 and the top-end model to Rs 15,999, making it one of the more affordable 5G phones in this segment.
Display and Design
The Galaxy F23 5G sports a large 6.6-inch TFT LCD display with a resolution of 2408x1080 pixels (Full HD+) and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, which ensures fluid scrolling and a responsive touch experience. The front panel features a dewdrop notch that houses the selfie camera, while Gorilla Glass protection shields the display from everyday scratches and minor drops. The build uses a plastic body, which is standard at this price point, and includes a convenient side-mounted fingerprint reader for quick and secure unlocking.
Processor and Software
Under the hood, the Samsung Galaxy F23 5G is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G chipset, a proven 5G-ready processor that handles day-to-day tasks and light gaming with ease. The phone ships with Android 12 based on Samsung's One UI 4.1, and Samsung has committed to two years of OS updates along with three years of security patches, which is reassuring for long-term users. On top of the physical RAM, the phone supports a virtual RAM expansion of up to 6GB, and storage is expandable via a microSD card slot.
Camera Setup
Photography is handled by a triple-camera system on the rear. The main shooter is a 50MP Samsung ISOCELL JN1 sensor, which captures detailed shots in good lighting. It is paired with an 8MP ultra-wide lens covering a 123-degree field of view for landscapes and group shots, and a 2MP macro sensor for close-up photography. On the front, an 8MP selfie camera sits inside the dewdrop notch, capable of producing clear portraits and video calls.
Battery and Charging
The phone is backed by a large 5,000mAh battery that comfortably supports a full day of heavy use. It supports 25W fast charging, which can top up the battery in a reasonable amount of time. However, it is worth noting that Samsung does not include a charging brick in the box, so buyers will need to use an existing adapter or purchase one separately.
