Recently, tipster Ahmed Quader claimed that the South Korean company may do away with the 128GB base model with the upcoming Galaxy S series. The leakster says that Samsung may skip the 128GB storage model for the Galaxy S23 phone. Instead, the series may come with 256GB of storage as the base variant.

While this is definitely good news for Samsung fans, readers should also note that the increase in storage capacity could also lead to a potential increase in the prices of the models. The current Samsung Galaxy S22 comes with a starting price of Rs. 72,999. Most likely the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S23 series will be costlier than this.
