Is the Samsung Galaxy F23 5G worth buying at ₹17,999?

At ₹17,999 the Samsung Galaxy F23 5G is one to skip, scoring 2.2 out of 5 against other phones at this price. It is strongest on display and weakest on performance. We have seen it as low as ₹17,427.

The ZuPick verdict

2.2out of 5
SkipBest at display, weakest at performance.

The Galaxy F23 5G handles basic daily use and offers practical features such as NFC, microSD expansion and a headphone jack. Its weak performance, LCD panel, slow charging and limited camera hardware leave it well behind current alternatives around ₹24,000.

Performance1.6
It reaches about 297,000 on AnTuTu, far below what most phones at this price deliver. UFS 2.2 storage and up to 6 GB RAM are adequate for everyday apps, but heavy gaming and intensive multitasking are weak points.
Camera2.3
The 50 MP f/1.8 main camera can produce acceptable daylight photos, and 4K recording at 30 fps adds flexibility. Without OIS or optical zoom, low-light clarity, video stability and distant subjects are weak.
Display2.7
The 120 Hz refresh rate makes motion smooth, and the 1080x2408 resolution keeps text and video sharp. However, the LCD panel is a substantial disadvantage when AMOLED is common at this price.
Battery2.2
The 5000 mAh capacity is ordinary, while the tested 11-hour-28-minute endurance is relatively short. Its 25 W charging also takes about 79 minutes to move from 20% to full.
Value2.3
At ₹23,999, NFC, expandable storage and 4K recording are useful additions. However, significantly stronger performance, AMOLED displays, faster charging and OIS are widely attainable for similar money.

Pros & cons

What’s good
Useful NFC Support

NFC makes contactless payments and quick accessory pairing convenient. It remains uncommon enough at this price to be a meaningful extra.

Expandable Storage Flexibility

The 128 GB storage can be expanded by up to 1 TB. This is useful for keeping large media libraries without relying on cloud storage.

Practical Media Extras

The 3.5 mm headphone jack and Dolby Atmos support add flexibility for music and video. The 120 Hz Full HD screen also keeps scrolling smooth and text clear.

What’s not
Performance Falls Far Behind

About 297,000 on AnTuTu is well below what most phones at this price manage. The 4 GB and 6 GB memory options suit routine use, but demanding games and heavy multitasking will struggle.

LCD Trails AMOLED Rivals

The 6.6-inch LCD cannot match the deep blacks, contrast and vivid appearance of the AMOLED screens commonly offered at this price. Its 120 Hz refresh rate is ordinary for this budget.

Slow Charging And Endurance

The 5000 mAh battery lasted 11 hours 28 minutes in PCMark, which is relatively short. Charging is limited to 25 W and takes about 79 minutes from 20% to full.

Camera Stability Is Weak

The 50 MP main camera lacks OIS, making low-light photos and handheld video more prone to blur. Zoom is digital, while the 8 MP selfie camera is basic.
