Exclusive: Samsung Galaxy S23 5K renders and design revealed: Check out the phone from different angles

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S23 series early next year, but ahead of its launch, Digit is bringing you an exclusive first look at one of the phones from the upcoming flagship series from the company. In partnership with popular tipster OnLeaks, Digit now brings you the full 360 degrees 5K renders of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S23. This leak not only takes the lid off the design of the phone and the new camera arrangement on the back of the device but also reveals the phone's exact dimensions. 

Samsung Galaxy S23: Design leaked

Earlier, we had come across rumors that the Samsung Galaxy S23 could only get a minor increase in dimensions over its predecessor, and now, OnLeaks has put his weight behind such claims, by revealing the dimensions of the phone. According to the leak, the phone will be slightly bigger – roughly 146.3 x 70.8 x 7.6 mm in size – compared to the Samsung Galaxy S22. The renders also reveal that the Galaxy S23 will use the exact same design as the Galaxy S22, minus the camera module we saw last year.

Instead, the phone will come with an updated rear camera design that's inspired by the Galaxy S22 Ultra. This translates to three cameras placed on the back panel resting on their individual islands without an encompassing fence or bump. However, that's all we know about the cameras for now, as there is no word on the rear camera internals at the moment.

Coming to the front, the renders suggest the phone will flaunt slightly broader bezels than before, with the display still the same size. According to the information shared by OnLeaks, the S23 display will be 6.1-inches diagonally. Again, no confirmation, but this display will likely refresh at 120Hz. The renders also reveal that the display will have a centrally located punch-hole, which according to previous rumours, could house a 12MP shooter.

Galaxy S23: Expected Specifications

As for the other internals, we don't really have any confirmation at the moment. However, leaks in the past have given us some idea about the phone. Under the hood, the phone could come fitted with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, plenty of RAM and a 5 per cent bigger battery pack than we saw on the Galaxy S22.

For now, this is all we know about the upcoming Galaxy S23. However, keep following this space for all the latest on the device. For more technology news, product reviews, sci-tech features and updates, keep reading Digit.in.

Jio Phone 5G expected to be the cheapest 5G phone in India: Heres how much it could cost

Reliance at its AGM 2022 announced its partnership with Google for ultra-affordable 5G phones. In line with that, the forthcoming Jio Phone 5G could come between ₹8000 and ₹12000 in India. A fresh report from Counterpoint Research tells us that the Jio Phone 5G at a sub-12K price range could be the cheapest of its kind in the market.

Here’s what we know so far about the phone.

Reliance Jio Phone 5G Specs and Features (Expected)

 

Jio Phone 5G could come with a 6.5-inch HD+ display on the front. The selfie camera could have an 8MP sensor. The rear camera setup, meanwhile, could comprise a 13MP primary shooter and a 2MP companion. 

Under the hood, the Jio 5G phone could house a Qualcomm Snapdragon 480 processor coupled with 4GB RAM and 32GB storage. There could be microSD card support too.

The partnership with Google on the software side could extend to this phone also. That means you could get Pragati OS with stripped-down Google Apps and Jio app suite. 

Last but not least, the battery powering all this could be a 5000mAh cell capable of charging up at 18W speed.

Reliance Jio Phone 5G Price and Availability (Expected)

 

In its report, Counterpoint states, “at some point in 2024, Jio will also be compelled to launch an affordable 5G mmWave + sub-6GHz smartphone as the cost deltas between the two have narrowed significantly from the overall BoM (bill of materials) fitting perspective.” 

And to reiterate, the Jio Phone 5G could come under the ₹12,000 bracket, if rumors are to be believed.

That’s all we know for now.

iOS 16 Cinematic Mode videos arent being recognized by video editors: Heres why

A new bug in iOS 16 is reportedly hampering videos recorded in Cinematic Mode, which are no longer recognised by free video editor iMovie and video editing tool 'Final Cut Pro'.

The users reported the problem on Apple Support forums and Reddit.

They said that video editors iMovie and Final Cut Pro "can no longer open Cinematic videos recorded with an iPhone running iOS 16," reports 9to5Mac.

"It seems that iOS 16 broke this feature in FCP, which will show a "The cinematic effect cannot be activated' error," said a Final Cut Pro user.

Another user posted that the errors are also experienced when using iMovie.

The tech giant was yet to acknowledge the new bug and release a software update to fix it.

Some users suggested a workaround, like first edit Cinematic videos on the iPhone and then share to the Mac over AirDrop.

With Cinematic Mode, your iPhone 13 camera can record videos with a shallow depth of field and add beautiful focus transitions for a cinema-grade look.

Cinematic mode works by capturing a depth map of the video as it's being filmed.

In new iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max, Cinematic Mode is available in 4K at 30 frames per second (fps) and 4K at 24 fps, along with Pro-level workflows for video, including ProRes and end-to-end Dolby Vision HDR.
