Capture every moment with the 50 MP main camera of the Galaxy A23 5G
For ordinary users like us, when using a phone, the camera is perhaps the most frequently used feature, even if you own various types of lenses. Understanding this, Samsung has done a truly excellent job with the 50 MP main camera of the Galaxy A23 5G, allowing users to capture many beautiful moments.

During a day out, I had the opportunity to revisit the campus of the University of Natural Sciences, where many memories of my student days are kept, to do some odd jobs to help younger students. It's been 2 years since the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, and I finally had the chance to return just as this second home was undergoing renovations, getting painted and refurbished to welcome the fresh new year of 2024. Thanks to the Galaxy A23 5G with its 50 MP camera, I was able to capture and preserve the laboratories, hallways, campus grounds, and the familiar sky alongside friends and my wife in incredible detail, with colors faithfully reproduced just like in real life, reminiscing and appreciating the beautiful memories I've had here!





After finishing work, I decided to head to the park at Landmark 81 to relax and enjoy the scenery. With the Galaxy A23 5G, nothing can make me miss out on beautiful, tranquil scenes, especially during lunchtime when there are fewer people around. With Samsung's highly praised camera technology, the photos captured are truly soulful and detailed, especially the colors of the sky, trees, and the intricate details of Landmark 81 building. I just need to press the shutter button once to get an extremely satisfying shot.


The 50 MP main camera performs exceptionally well under normal conditions. Every moment, beautiful scenery, and places filled with memories are captured with precision. The brightness is just right, colors are balanced, details are sharp, and there's minimal noise even in harsh sunlight, despite feeling quite tired and sweaty. Thanks to the OIS stabilization, the resulting photos are still of high quality.
Confidently strike the top-notch pose with the 8 MP ultra-wide-angle camera
In the extremely beautiful and deserted setting of Landmark 81 at noon, I also took some landscape photos using the 8 MP ultra-wide-angle camera on the Galaxy A23 5G. Although these scenes may not be novel, they never go out of style as they continue to inspire anyone passionate about photography. With the ultra-wide-angle camera, the central details are still reproduced clearly, sharp, and with good color. However, when looking at the edges, the image is quite distorted, even blurry at times. This is quite common with wide-angle cameras, whether mid-range or high-end, so I have no complaints.
The ultra-wide-angle camera on the Galaxy A23 5G delivers good details in the central area.What I love about the wide-angle camera of the Galaxy A23 5G is its ability to magically 'hack' height. My wife is about 1.62m tall, but when using the 8 MP wide-angle camera, it feels like she's 1.7m tall! This is perfect for 'shorties' who want to take stunning height-altered photos to show off to friends!


So, not only is the main camera satisfying, but even the 8 MP ultra-wide-angle camera of the Galaxy A23 5G also provides me with plenty of inspiration and some really interesting shots.
Inspiration from the little things with the 2 MP macro camera
On the way, there are many things that will make you want to capture close-up shots, like flowers for example. The blossoming flowers at Landmark 81 park are quite beautiful, adding to the liveliness. With the Galaxy A23 5G's 2 MP macro camera, the close-up photos are extremely sharp and vibrant, allowing me to see every vein of the petals.
The blooming flowers are absolutely stunning.It's already past noon, let's go have lunch at the famous Sukiya Japanese restaurant. I chose the Karaage fried chicken rice set to replenish my energy after a very energy-consuming morning. When taking normal photos, the rice already looks very tempting, making you want to eat it immediately, but when taking close-ups, you just want to take a bite right away without waiting any longer.

Enhancing the beauty of loved ones through portrait mode
One of the things that young people, or more precisely, Generation Z, love about modern phones is portrait mode, which highlights the subject against the background. I'm no exception. With the portrait mode of the Galaxy A23 5G, photos of my wife in sufficient lighting have vibrant colors, distinctly separated from the background, with smooth skin that makes you want to post them on Facebook right away. However, the background blur capability still needs improvement as some details like glasses tend to look a bit awkward.

With backlit photos, the subject seems elevated and stands out significantly. The subject's colors remain distinct from the background, but the color balance is different. Overall, the frame only allows just enough light, creating a sense of contentment and chill amidst the hustle and bustle of life.

Feeling full after eating, let's head to a cafe to work and find some new inspiration. We chose Mùa Coffee, decorated in a vintage Saigon style. As you all know, winter or Christmas is approaching, and this cafe has also decorated to suit the Christmas atmosphere. The corner I took photos in was quite dim with only a hint of yellow light from the lamp, but the Galaxy A23 5G still captures extremely detailed and high-quality shots, with the color tone just right, accurately reflecting the chilly Christmas weather of Saigon.
Christmas is coming, so let's take our loved ones and snap some photos!The portrait mode on the Galaxy A23 5G delivers such impressive photo quality that even the pickiest photographers are left amazed and praising. Guys can also use this trick to win over their crushes! Or even those single folks who are crushing on someone, be smart and use the Galaxy A23 5G to take her out for a photoshoot and get those perfect shots, and who knows, you might end up together!
Shooting videos on the Galaxy A23 5G is also excellent thanks to its optical image stabilization (OIS)
For today's youth, always wanting to express their unique personality to everyone, I admire those people. This is manifested in various ways such as academic achievements, photography, and currently the most popular, making videos on TikTok, YouTube. However, not everyone is fortunate or financially comfortable enough to own high-end smartphones for shooting videos, right? So, stepping down to the mid-range segment with the Galaxy A23 5G will help you fulfill your dream of becoming a professional TikToker or Vlogger.

I've done a simple Vlog scene where my partner just painted. Though simple, I had to arrange the layout reasonably, as this is my first time doing this kind of thing, so there might be mistakes, feel free to give feedback. The details of the character in the video are captured very accurately, every movement like brush strokes or gentle hair sways is perfectly captured. Although the quality is not as high as many other high-end phone models, this could be a perfect start for those stepping into the TikToker or Vlogger profession.
The optical image stabilization (OIS) capability of the Galaxy A23 5G is also excellent! I've shot a short, high-speed running scene, you can check it out below!
As you can see, the stabilization capability of the Galaxy A23 5G, in my opinion, is just okay. The footage still shakes quite a bit when I'm running, but considering the price of the product, we can't ask for more.
Summary
Overall, the Galaxy A23 5G has taken me through various emotions during my day of leisure and work. It can be said that the Galaxy A23 5G's quad OIS camera setup is done very well for its price range.
