The holidays are upon us and the year is coming to an end. This means that it is time to look into the future! Curious about the smartphones we are most looking forward to in 2023? Then read quickly.

We would like to test these smartphones in 2023

Many smartphones will also appear in 2023. We hope that there will be some surprises in between, but we can already predict most of them very well. Of course we have an editorial board robot planet So our preferences. These are the five devices that make our hands itch!

1. Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra

Samsung Galaxy S23 series, which maybe Early February 2023 Introduction, again consisting of three devices. In addition to the usual Samsung S23 and bigger S23 Plus It is, of course, about Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra.

There are two reasons why we’re looking forward to Samsung’s flagship flagship this year. Most likely the S23 Ultra will run on one Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. Previously chosen samsung In the Netherlands, there is always a chipset of their own making, which is noticeably less fast and economical than Snapdragons. Compared with the S22 Ultra So his successor must take a big step forward.

Samsung also has something nice in store for photographers. For the past three years, the company has opted for a 108MP main camera over its most luxurious S models. The S23 Ultra goes even further: the device gets a 200MP lens. We don’t really care about those extra pixels, but the sensor is also bigger and more modern. So we’re very curious about the photos you take with the S23.

2. OnePlus Nord 3

OnePlus It will undoubtedly come again in 2023 with a lot of new smartphones. Much attention will be paid to OnePlus 11, the new flagship of the manufacturer. However, we are secretly looking forward to OnePlus North 3.

Phones in the Nord line offer excellent value for money: they have a fast processor, fast charging, and usually have an excellent main camera. For most people, this is more than enough. Until now OnePlus North 2T Minor setback: the device was very similar to its predecessor, OnePlus North 2.

This is exactly why there are high hopes for the OnePlus Nord 3, which we will see next year. After all, it’s time for a major upgrade. There are not many rumors yet, but we believe that the Nord 3 will get a bigger and better screen, among other things.

3. Google Pixel Fold

It has been rumored for a long time about Google Pixel Fold. However, it is almost certain that the search giant will finally launch its first foldable smartphone in the middle of 2023. It should compete with, for example, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4.

Google’s version is quite similar, too: on the outside you’ll likely find a fairly normal smartphone screen. Once you open the device, you will see a compact 7.6 inch tablet. You can multitask on it and your favorite series will also look good on such a large screen.

The difference is with Samsung’s foldable screen edges. On the Pixel Fold, it’s quite thick at the top and bottom. As a result, the screen has a slightly wider aspect ratio. The selfie camera under the screen also doesn’t have to be addressed, simply because it’s on the edge.

Google is apparently using a Tensor G2 chip, which we know from Pixel 7 And the Pixel 7 Pro. It is still not clear what exactly cameras the device will have. The price is likely to be hot: rumors are around $1,799. If Google released the Pixel Fold in the Netherlands, and this is obvious, it is likely that you will also pay at least 1,799 euros for this smartphone.

4.Xiaomi 13 Pro

Xiaomi Announced 13 pro in December 2022, but it won’t be in our stores until this year. The device has a 6.73-inch OLED display and, like the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, runs on a super-fast Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. The battery capacity is 4820 mAh and the charging is very fast with a capacity of 120 watts.

Good specifications, then, but it is particularly interesting that the Xiaomi 13 Pro has 1 inch camera sensor she has. This year it was reserved for Xiaomi 12S UltraUnfortunately, it is not for sale with us. With such a large sensor, you can take detailed photos even in low light. The wide-angle lens and telephoto camera are also 50MP, but there’s a somewhat smaller sensor behind them.

5. Asus Zenfone 10

The little one is beautiful! we were in Our review affiliate Asus Zenfone 9 Very excited about the great performance of this compact smartphone. With a screen diagonal of 5.9 inches, this device can be called almost small by today’s standards, but it turns out to be very complete. Even the battery life, which is often the Achilles heel of small phones, was perfectly fine.

However, we’re already looking forward to the Zenfone 10, because there’s always something to be desired. We’d like to see a telephoto lens for the zoom, as it’s missing in its predecessor. Besides, we hope so Asus Their update policy would improve as this is substandard. Finally: maybe you will manage to make the “chin” at the bottom of the screen a little smaller? Then we are completely satisfied!
