We’ve always known that Samsung will unveil the Galaxy S23 series in the first quarter of next year – the S22 series was unveiled on February 9, the S21 series on January 14, and the S20 series on February 11. However, we didn’t have the exact date, and officially we still don’t. That said, a commercial official spoke to the Korean press about the likely reveal and launch dates.
According to the insider, Samsung will hold a press event in San Francisco in the first week of February (January 30 to February 5). After that Samsung traditionally makes two weeks of pre-orders and sets the earliest shipping date to be on a Friday.
Looking at the calendar, February 17 should be the Friday the first Galaxy S23 units will be released.

The launch of the Galaxy S was in March, but changing market conditions have led Samsung to push it forward. This makes it a more timely response to competing models (some of which will launch in December) and gives the series more time to ramp up its first quarter financials.
There’s more, the Korean publication reports Chosun. Samsung is also taking into account the downturn in the smartphone market, which analysts say will continue into the next year. This reportedly motivated Samsung to launch the new S series sooner rather than later.
