About this phone
Product details
The Samsung Galaxy A23 5G is the most affordable entry point into Samsung's 5G A-series range available at Fone4U — and it punches well above its price class. A Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G chipset (6 nm), a 6.6" FHD+ 120 Hz screen, a 50MP OIS main camera, and a 5,000 mAh battery—here is a phone that covers every essential point for those customers who need a budget-friendly device but are not ready to sacrifice its key features.
The presence of a 120Hz refresh rate on an FHD+ LCD screen allows for smoother and faster navigation and scrolling; usually, you can encounter such a technology only on premium phones. The Snapdragon 695 SoC is a pretty powerful 5G chip that will cope well with all basic tasks. 4GB or 6GB of RAM keeps multitasking smooth, and 128GB of storage can be expanded with a microSD card.
The 50MP main camera with OIS is the real surprise at this price point. OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) means noticeably sharper photos in real-world conditions, and the resulting images are detailed and natural for a budget device. The 5,000mAh battery is substantial and, with moderate use, will comfortably last a full day and more. In Excellent Grade A condition with an 18-month Fone4U warranty, the Galaxy A23 5G is a standout choice for first smartphone buyers, teenagers, backup phones, or anyone looking to spend less without settling for less. Available at fone4u.ie and in all Fone4U stores.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, it is one of the best first smartphones available at its price point. The combination of a 6.6" 120Hz display, 50MP camera, 5,000mAh battery, and 5G connectivity gives a genuinely modern smartphone experience. Samsung's One UI is straightforward to use for first-time Android users, and the phone's build quality feels solid and reliable.
Sure, the Samsung Galaxy A23 5G smartphone does have the NFC functionality, and it can function with all the terminals in Ireland, as it uses Google Pay and Samsung Pay services.
Sure, considering the minimum needs to use some functions such as texting, social media usage, talking on the phone, watching films, and browsing the web, 4GB will do just fine. But if one expects to use the phone for multitasking, then 6GB or even 8GB would be appropriate. The version with 128GB and 6GB would be purchased.
The A23 5G has an IPS LCD panel display, unlike AMOLED displays found in other phones. LCD displays produce accurate colors and are bright in daylight, but they do not match AMOLED for contrast, deep blacks, or viewing angles. The 120Hz refresh rate does make scrolling feel smooth and modern. For someone upgrading from an older or budget phone, the display will feel excellent. For those comparing directly to an A53 or A54, AMOLED will produce a more vivid image.
No — the Galaxy A23 5G does not have a 3.5mm headphone jack. Audio is via USB-C or Bluetooth. A USB-C to 3.5mm adapter works with standard wired earphones. Bluetooth 5.1 supports wireless headphones and speakers.
The 5,000mAh battery typically delivers a full day and more for moderate users—messaging, browsing, some video, and calls. Light users can comfortably get two days on a single charge. The 25W fast charger fills the battery significantly in under an hour. Battery health on all Fone4U Grade A device is certified at a minimum of 80%.
Yes—it is an ideal choice for a teenager's first or second smartphone. It has everything you need for schooling and social life, including a large screen for entertainment purposes, a strong 50MP camera for pictures and TikToks, and long battery life. This Grade A refurbed price point from Fone4U would thus make for a great, affordable option for parents who want to give their teenaged kids a dependable Samsung without breaking the bank.
Yes, the Snapdragon 695 has sub-6GHz 5G capability. As this supports Irish frequencies (5G networks of Vodafone, Three, and Eir), you can enjoy your 5G connection whenever there is coverage.
Yes, side-mounted fingerprint scanners like the one on the A23 5G are fast and secure. The side fingerprint sensor works faster than the under-screen sensor due to its capacitive nature. Additionally, this scanner is integrated into the power button and unlocks within less than 0.3 seconds.
Yes, this cheap price tag combined with long battery life, 5G, and other features make this device a perfect backup/secondary phone. It supports dual SIM (if the variant you purchase is the dual SIM model), so you can run two numbers on one phone.
The A23 5G runs Samsung's One UI software layer on top of Android. Pre-installed Samsung apps include Galaxy Store, SmartThings, Bixby, Samsung Health, Samsung Pay, and standard Samsung equivalents for the phone, messages, and the browser. Most standard Google apps (Maps, Gmail, Chrome, YouTube) are also pre-installed. Fone4U devices are restored to factory settings before sale, so no previous user data is present.
The Samsung Galaxy A23 5G is available to buy online at fone4u.ie with free 1–2 day delivery nationwide. It is also in stock at Fone4U's three stores: Bray (Co Wicklow), Ballina (Co Mayo), and Sligo. Walk in during opening hours — no appointment needed.

Why it matters
Original parts vs cheap copies
Every part in this phone is its own original part. Nothing has been swapped for a cheap copy. Here’s why that matters.
Original partCheap copy part
Screen
True colours, full brightness and True Tone, with smooth, precise touch
Duller colours, lower brightness and often no True Tone. Touch can lag or miss
Battery
Full rated capacity, safety-tested, and Battery Health reads correctly
Often less real capacity, can run hot or swell, and Battery Health may show “Unknown” or “Service”
Cameras
Sharp focus, accurate colour, and Night mode and stabilisation work as designed
Softer photos, slow focus, and some camera features can stop working
Face ID & Touch ID
Works securely, exactly as the manufacturer intended
Can stop working completely, and copy parts can’t bring it back
Messages on your phone
No “Unknown Part” or “Non-genuine” warnings in Settings
iPhone can show an “Unknown Part” message that stays in Settings
Water & dust seals
Precise original fit and seals
Looser fit and weaker seals, so more likely to fail early
Resale value
Keeps its full trade-in and resale value
Worth less when you sell or trade it in, and some shops refuse it
Every Fone4U phone is tested in Ireland and covered by our warranty. If a part ever needs replacing, we only fit a genuine one.
