What About a Compact Phone’s Battery Life?
One disadvantage with compact phone models is that they tend to have a smaller battery, Ward noted.
The S23 has a 3,900mAh battery with fast charging.
It has Qi wireless charging, up to 15W, and 4.5W reverse wireless charging.
The S23 Ultra, on the other hand, has a 5,000 amp battery.
