The Galaxy S23 Ultra and Galaxy S23 Plus will have bigger bodies with additional cooling techniques. At the same time, the Galaxy S23 doesn’t have any kind of cooling function, and the small body could cause overheating issues.

Samsung may still use the overclocked Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in the base Galaxy S23 with throttling to maintain heating. Processor is the most important part of any smart device, hence, the company is not compromising now.

A74 sent to Eden after S22 FE and Note

To focus on its premium smartphone lineup, Samsung is canceling unnecessary models with the Galaxy A74 being the latest entry. There are no clues about the Galaxy A74 arrival, and the same goes for the anticipated S22 FE.

Last year, the Korean tech officially confirmed that the Galaxy Note lineup has been discontinued. Later, it brought the S Pen support to the Galaxy S21 Ultra and the Galaxy Z Fold 3 as external accessory.

This year, the Galaxy S22 Ultra introduced a hybrid design with all the hardware/software capabilities of Galaxy S line + iconic S Pen and boxy design of the Galaxy Note line. The Galaxy S23 Ultra also features dedicated S Pen silo.
