- One is a slim tripod and hand grip while the other is a remote control mini tripod and camera grip.
Samsung seems to have introduced two new camera accessories for the Galaxy S23 series. Discovered by WinFutures Roland Quandt, the two detachable devices plug into the gadget case for the Galaxy S23 series.
The first accessory is a slim tripod stand that allows you to mount your Galaxy S23 in portrait or landscape mode. The tripod legs fold into a neat, flat package when not in use. You can also use it as a one-handed grip while recording videos with your phone in hand. The stand weighs 70g and is currently listed on Samsung’s UK site for £34.00 (~$41).
The second accessory is a more advanced but useful camera grip stand. It enhances the Galaxy S23 by acting as a mini tripod with a Bluetooth shutter remote control. It even has a tilt feature that allows you to create a frame at your desired angle. The accessory could come in handy when shooting things like a hyperlapse video. The camera grip is also listed on Samsung’s UK website but doesn’t have a price yet.
We expect the company to make both accessories more widely available in the coming days.
In the meantime, we happened to be perusing some of the reviews for Samsung’s Gadget Case on its US site and it seems that customers who bought it aren’t too happy with it. There are several reports that it is impossible to remove the case from the phone without breaking it. So if you’re thinking of buying one, maybe try it at a Samsung store before you buy it.
Samsung has launched two detachable camera accessories for its Galaxy S23 series, including a slim tripod that can be used as a one-handed grip and a more advanced camera grip stand with Bluetooth shutter remote control. Both devices plug into the gadget case and are expected to become more widely available soon. While the tripod is currently listed on the company’s UK website for £34 ($41), the camera grip has not yet been priced. Reports suggest that Samsung’s Gadget Case is difficult to remove from the phone and may break in the process, so it is advisable to try it instore before purchasing.
