Is Samsung’s new ‘cheap’ product worth it?

Image in motion: It’s a good resource when your hand is shaking when taking the photo or when you’re photographing your pet that won’t sit still, for example. The camera detects movement and automatically stabilizes the image, improving image quality.

Enlarge images: As with any other cell phone, image quality degrades significantly when using the maximum zoom of 30x. However, the moving image feature stabilizes the image well – on all the mobile phones I’ve owned, below the S23 FE, zoom images were always blurry.

A “big screen” for videos and games

For those who enjoy watching series or playing games on their mobile phones, the S23 FE has a 6.4-inch screen, which is larger than its S23 sibling (6.1 inches). It is worth noting here that the device has an edge that eats part of the screen, meaning that the screen could be larger if it occupied the entire front part of the cell phone.

The 120Hz refresh rate is interesting for gamers, because it means there are more frames per second and the game is more fluid. Another positive point is “Game Mode”, which blocks notifications, messages and calls so you can focus on the game.

Big and heavy

Its size and weight bothered me a little at first, and it can get larger depending on the case you use. I got used to it after a few days of use and was able to carry it in my pants pocket just fine, but those who don’t like large cell phones or have small hands may have more difficulty.
