Samsung has recently confirmed the date for the Galaxy Unpacked event, which is set to take place on February 1st. The event will be used to officially introduce the new Samsung Galaxy S23 series to the world. In anticipation of the event, Samsung’s division in China has released a series of teaser videos for the new flagship phones.
The main visual element in these videos is the emphasis on the camera capabilities of the S23 series, specifically focusing on the three camera lenses. The first teaser video talks about “megapixels that’ll make you say wow,” which is a clear indication that the company is focusing on the camera capabilities of the S23 Ultra.
According to various rumors and leaks, the S23 Ultra is expected to feature a main camera with 200 megapixels. This would be a significant upgrade over the 108 megapixels on the current S21 Ultra.

The second teaser video focuses on the improved night photography and video capabilities of the S23 series. This is a feature that has been previously mentioned by leakster Ice Universe, who suggests that Samsung has been working on improving the hardware and processing capabilities of the S23 series to enhance low-light performance.
While the S23 series is set to feature several improvements over previous models, there are also reports that the S23 Ultra may have suffered from a lack of resources in certain areas. One specific example is the periscope hardware, which may not have received an upgrade due to the focus on the main camera.
Additionally, the S23 Ultra may feature a 12-megapixel front-facing camera, instead of the 40-megapixel sensor on previous models. However, the new chipset on the S23 series should allow for 8K @ 30fps video recording, an upgrade from the 24fps on previous models.
