Editorial report
itel S23 technical sheet
The itel S23 suits buyers looking for a slim phone with a 50 MP camera and a bright aperture, provided they can accept modest performance, a low-detail display, and slow charging. At 8 mm thick, it is thinner than most phones of its time, and its f/1.6 aperture is among the brightest. The 50 MP resolution is typical, so it does not by itself set the camera apart from other phones.
The 6.6-inch IPS LCD display combines 720 × 1612 px resolution with a 90 Hz refresh rate. Its 267 ppi density, refresh rate, and 500-nit peak brightness are all lower than those of most phones from its time. The Unisoc T606, 4 GB of RAM, and 128 GB of storage make for overall performance that is worse than most; its storage capacity is also lower than most phones of its time. Storage is expandable.
The rear camera records video at 1080p at 30 fps, but its 1/2.55″ sensor is smaller than that in most phone cameras of its time. The 5000 mAh battery has typical capacity, while 10 W charging is among the weakest figures. Other features include dual Nano-SIM, USB Type-C, and Android 12. With a NeoScore of 4.4 and overall specifications that are worse than most phones launched around the same time, the S23 is best suited to buyers who prioritize a slim body and a bright camera aperture over display detail, performance, and charging speed.
