Samsung is said to have upgraded its entire S series of Android smartphones (rather than just its Ultra variant as usual) in terms of looks for its upcoming 2023 generation. Now, a famous leaker claims to have dug up images of "protective cases" made to fit one of these devices. Its rear camera cut-outs suggest that the vanilla flagship has indeed made a departure from its S22 forebear.

Samsung's experiments on the Galaxy S camera hump (and, occasionally, frame) have allegedly come to a conclusion as of late. The OEM is now rumored to have settled on a style previously reserved for its top-end offerings, which may or may not be also ported to the more affordable Galaxy A series, for the coming year.

Now, the latest leak courtesy of Ice Universe may reinforce the impression that Samsung will stick with the simple traffic-light look going forward. The tipster has posted what might be images of cases made for one of the putative future flagships in 2 colors.

The smartphone as depicted gives the impression of being quite compact, and may thus be the vanilla Galaxy S23. Its Galaxy Z Fold4- or S22 Ultra-esque triple rear camera cut-outs are paired with a flattened frame with power and volume buttons found running along the same side - presuming this new tip proves accurate, of course.

All in all, this is the latest in a stream of possible evidence that Samsung's mobile Android line-up design might undergo changes that, if predictable, might prove welcome, in 2023.
